Roughly 55 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
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 generally happens at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.

DIY paella versus live catering
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but you’ll still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. We take care of all of it.
Why live cooking beats a buffet
Food trucks serve one order at a time, which can mean long queues at a wedding. Paella is served quickly to many guests. The price depends on your guest numbers, the menu and how many courses you choose, along with staff, extras and travel. Every event gets its own quote.
What you get with us
- Served hot, straight from the pan
- Real theatre, not just catering
- Events in Weston-on-the-Green and across Oxfordshire
- Plates, cutlery and waiting staff available

Step by step
When the rice goes in, it’s left alone. That is how the grains cook evenly and the toasted base, the socarrat, forms. Your guests will smell it before they see it. For a summer wedding in Weston-on-the-Green, the sun sets at about 9:30pm in late June and about 7:10pm in late September, so an evening paella for evening guests is generally served in daylight in high summer. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it is dark by about 3:55pm.
