Wedding paella catering for Wintershill events

About our wedding paella catering in Wintershill

At a wedding, paella is both the meal and a bit of a show. Guests drift over to watch the pans while the photos are being taken, and the food arrives hot and plentiful. On the menu are a paella wedding breakfast, evening paella and Spanish desserts, and typical bookings are for weddings with lots of dietary needs and garden and marquee weddings.

There is something special about a country wedding near Wintershill, and an open-air paella adds to it. Plan for access and a wet-weather cover. You can add tapas, desserts, sangria, bar staff and waiting staff, so the whole menu comes from one caterer.

A typical event goes like this: we arrive, set up and start cooking, the rice cooks in front of your guests, and we serve straight from the pan when you’re ready to eat.

  1. First, we check your date.
  2. You choose canapés, tapas, paellas and desserts.
  3. We confirm the plan with your coordinator.

How we price wedding paella catering

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

  • Timings and hours
  • Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
  • Travel, parking and access
  • Waiting and bar staff

When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: staff, crockery, bread and salads, travel and VAT. Our quotes spell it all out.

What we need to know

You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:

  • What the venue already provides
  • The date and rough timings
  • Diets and allergies you know about
  • Which courses you have in mind

Should I cook it myself?

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.

Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, keep the stock hot, and do not stir once the rice goes in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.

Planning the cooking area

No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space before we confirm. In general, we need:

  • Space well away from trees, fences and gazebo walls
  • Access for unloading near the cooking spot
  • A level, firm spot for the burners and pans

If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and we will say what we think.

Popular choices

  • Canapé tapas
  • Dessert
  • Table tapas
  • Paella wedding breakfast
  • Evening paella
  • Sangria & bar staff
