About our wedding paella catering in Winkfield Row
We can add sangria, bar staff, crockery and waiting staff, to suit the style of your day. We cook Spanish desserts, evening paella and a paella wedding breakfast, and typical bookings are for garden and marquee weddings and receptions after an intimate ceremony.
A wedding in a small place like Winkfield Row often means a field, a barn or a family garden. That’s exactly where live paella shines: no kitchen, just a level, sheltered spot. Let us know about access and ground. Tapas, canapés, desserts, sangria and staff can all be added, so the whole menu comes from one caterer.

Why live cooking beats a buffet
Compared with formal catering, live paella is relaxed and sociable, but with canapés, table tapas and good crockery, it still feels special. Live paella pricing depends on the event. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. We itemise everything in your quote.
What you get with us
- Options for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests, each in its own pan
- Everything cooked fresh at your event

Winkfield Row questions
Can you cater a reception after a service at St Martin's Church?
Yes, at a garden, marquee or venue nearby with a suitable spot to cook. Churches rarely have space for live cooking, so the meal is generally elsewhere. Send us the reception address.
Is Winkfield Row too small for live paella?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, on request. Rice is naturally gluten-free, but stock and some ingredients may not be, so we cook a gluten-free paella separately.
Can paella feel formal?
With the right presentation, it feels special: canapés, table tapas, good crockery and staff serving the tables.
Can you supply plates?
If you need them, yes. Proper crockery or quality disposables are available.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
What if the timings change?
We plan for it. The rice goes in at the last sensible moment, so it is served at its best.
Can we add tapas or canapés?
Yes. Canapé tapas with the drinks, or table tapas to share, served while the paella cooks.
Where we can cook in Winkfield Row
Before the day, we will agree where we cook. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot
- A cooking spot outside the marquee, not inside it
- A level, firm spot for the burners and pans
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

DIY paella versus live catering
Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, have hot stock ready, and don’t stir once the rice goes in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.
