Wedding paella catering near Westcott

Is live paella right for your wedding?

A buffet can leave food sitting out. Paella goes straight from pan to plate. Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so the menu you choose affects the price. We will suggest options to suit your budget.

What you get with us

  • Food that becomes part of the entertainment
  • We cover Westcott and the whole of Buckinghamshire
  • Crockery and waiting staff if you need them
  • Hot food served quickly from the pan

Wedding paella catering for your wedding in Westcott

We can cater your whole wedding day or one part of it: canapés, a tapas starter, a paella wedding breakfast, evening food and dessert. We are frequently asked to cater receptions after an intimate ceremony and evening wedding food, serving a paella wedding breakfast, table tapas and Spanish desserts.

Near Westcott, weddings are often in fields, barns or gardens. That is exactly where live paella shines: no kitchen needed, just a level, sheltered spot. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. We cook every pan in full view of your guests, so it arrives hot and becomes part of the event.

DIY paella versus live catering

A DIY paella party works for small groups. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles separate pans for each diet.

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.

Questions from Westcott

Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Mary?

Yes, at a garden, marquee or venue nearby with a suitable spot to cook. Live cooking usually happens at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.

What’s the nearest station to Westcott for guests?

The closest is Aylesbury Vale Parkway station, roughly 4.2 miles away.

Do you cater for young children?

Of course. A simple chicken paella is usually popular with children. Tell us how many are coming.

Is it really cooked live?

Yes. We arrive with everything we need and cook on the day, then serve straight from the pan.

Can you do our whole wedding menu?

Any part of the day, or all of it, from the drinks reception to the evening.

Can you provide dessert?

Yes, Spanish desserts can be added. Tell us what you have in mind in your enquiry.

Who clears up?

We take our equipment and leave the cooking area tidy. Table clearing is available with waiting staff.

Can you serve drinks?

Sangria, yes. We can also supply bar staff for your own drinks.

How it works

It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up the pans and burners, and get on with cooking and serving. Golden-hour photos in Westcott at midsummer come around 9:25pm, which helps us time evening food around your photos. Sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 7:10pm in late September.

  1. We check availability for your date.
  2. You choose canapés, tapas, paellas and desserts.
