How the day works

Your timings come first. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, we hold the paella at the right stage so it’s still served fresh. Golden-hour photos in White Waltham at midsummer come around 9:25pm, which helps us time evening food around your photos. Sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September.

  2. Together we plan each course.
  3. Timings are agreed with your venue.
  4. On the day, we cook and serve each course.
  5. We clear our area; staff stay as booked.

White Waltham: your questions answered

Is White Waltham close to London?

Roughly 29 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.

Can you cook in Ockwells Park?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Ask them first, and we’ll send any information they need.

How soon do we need to book?

Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Even if it’s short notice, it is worth asking.

Can the paella be cooked in a hall?

Indoors only where ventilation and the venue allow it. Most events have us cooking outside or in a doorway or courtyard.

Is the paella gluten-free?

Yes, on request. The rice is gluten-free, but stocks and chorizo can contain gluten, so we cook a gluten-free paella separately.

Do you cook it at the event?

Yes. We bring the pans, burners and fresh ingredients and cook on the day, then serve straight from the pan.

What space do you need to cook?

Not a lot: a level spot clear of fences, hedges and branches, with room for a serving table. Send us a picture if you are not sure.

What does wedding paella catering cost?

We quote for each event, based on what you actually want. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas for a clear quote.

A closer look at the menu

Paella wedding breakfast

Two or three paellas, served from the pans or brought to the tables, with bread and salad.

Table tapas

A tapas starter gets tables talking before the paella arrives.

Prices and what affects them

Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:

  • Whether you need crockery
  • How many guests are eating
  • How long we are needed on site
  • The paellas you choose

If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will put together a menu that fits. A simple menu can still feel generous.

Getting an accurate quote

Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:

  • The courses you’d like
  • Anything your venue supplies
  • Where the event is
  • Any dietary needs and allergies

Every event is quoted individually, so you only pay for what you need. To ask for one, fill in our quote form.
