Wedding paella catering in Weston, made fresh on the day
A paella wedding makes mixed diets simple: each paella has its own pan, so every guest gets a proper hot main. Whether it is blessings and vow renewals and informal wedding breakfasts, we will put together a menu of evening paella, table tapas and a paella wedding breakfast for your guests.
There is something special about a country wedding near Weston, and paella cooking in the open air adds to it. Plan for access and a wet-weather cover. Each paella is cooked from scratch on the day, never made in advance and reheated.

How the day works
The cooking is part of the entertainment. We start with the sofrito, add the stock and saffron, then spread the rice across the pan and leave it alone to cook. In Weston, midsummer sunset is about 9:25pm, and by late September it is nearer 7:10pm, which means evening paella is generally served in daylight in June and July. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it’s dark by about 4:00pm.
- We start with your date, venue, numbers and ideas.
- We build the menu course by course and send a quote.
- Timings are agreed with you and the venue, around speeches and photos.
- On the day we set up, cook live and serve each course as planned.
- Afterwards we clear our area; any staff you’ve booked stay as planned.
Getting ready for the day
- Confirm the venue is happy with live cooking

This part of West Berkshire takes in RG20, so your wedding can be anywhere in it. Nearby, we also cater weddings in East Shefford (1 mile north-west), Great Shefford (1 mile north-west), Wickham (1 mile south), Easton (2 miles south-east) and Shefford Woodlands (2 miles west).

Organising for someone else?
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.
Hosting a party at home? Send us a picture of the garden and tell us about access, and we will tell you honestly whether live paella will work.
Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles separate pans for each diet.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.

Dietary needs and planning tips
Most events have a mix of diets. To plan for them:
- Give us separate day and evening numbers
- Tell us when speeches will be
- Include any suppliers you’re feeding
- Introduce us to your venue coordinator
Guests can queue at the pans, or staff can serve the tables, whichever suits your day.
Spanish desserts, or your own wedding cake, finish the meal.
Paella compared with other options
If you are weighing up paella against a traditional menu, consider your venue, diets and the style you want. Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so the menu you choose affects the price. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.
