Catering for every guest
Nearly every event has some special diets. To cater well for them:
- Book early for summer Saturdays
- Let us know about meals for your band or photographer
- Ask whether your venue allows outside caterers
- Decide whether guests queue at the pans or are served at the tables
Evening guests can be served from fresh pans later on, normally timed after the first dance.
Table tapas make a sociable starter.

FAQs for Wisborough Green
We are having a ceremony at The Parish Church of St Peter Ad Vincula: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall where we can cook. Churches rarely have space for live cooking, so the meal is generally elsewhere. Send us the reception address.
How far is Wisborough Green from London?
About 37 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Do you offer tastings?
Ask us when you enquire and we’ll explain the options.
How much does wedding paella catering cost in Wisborough Green?
The price depends on numbers, menu, courses, staff and travel. Tell us about your event and we’ll send a quote.
Do you cook inside?
Mostly outside or under an open cover, since the burners are gas. Some venues have suitable spaces; we will check with you and the venue.
Who clears up?
Our cooking area is packed away and left clean. Table clearing is available with waiting staff.
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it’s short notice, it is worth asking.
Should we have more than one paella?
Two or three is usual: meat or mixed, seafood, and vegetable or vegan. We will suggest a split based on your guests.
What affects the price in Wisborough Green
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- How many staff you need
- Starters, canapés and desserts
- The length of service
- Your choice of paellas
There is no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. We itemise everything in your quote.
What to tell us
To speed things up, tell us:
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- The courses you’d like
- Your date and when you want to eat
- Expected numbers
Every quote is put together for your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we’ll check availability at the same time.
Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. A big pan needs a burner that heats it evenly, and getting the rice right for dozens of people takes experience. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.
Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.

Why live cooking beats a buffet
Plated wedding meals need a kitchen and more staff. Paella needs a level, ventilated spot and permission, and feels more relaxed. Extras such as tapas, desserts, sangria, staff and crockery are priced separately, so you only pay for what you want.

The process
When the rice goes in, it is left alone. That is what gives paella its separate grains and crispy base. Your guests will smell it before they see it. For a summer wedding in Wisborough Green, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, 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 3:55pm.
