fabulous wedding food
Melissa was great from start to finish for our evening wedding catering. Our guests said it was ‘the best paella they had ever eaten’. Such good value for money for amazing food. Thanks Vamos. You made our wedding. Xx

Welcoming, professional and all round brilliant
We went with Vamos Paella for our wedding and we did not regret it!! We had a seafood, meat and vegetarian dish which all went down an absolute storm - so many of the guests were coming up to us to tell us how good the food was. We also ordered brownies which were served on slates to each table, and I was shocked to find that pretty much all of them got eaten! Melissa and co. were a pleasure to work with and gave great advice in the lead up to the big day. She was also extremely welcoming at her home for the tasting session. Could not recommend Vamos Paella enough!

Excellent food and a great Team
Melissa and the team at Vamos were great. The food for our wedding was just incredible. It has been a few months since our big day, and people are still commenting about how delicious it was. The process was easy leading up to the day. I think we changed our menu options numerous times when our RSVPs started to come back. Was also a fantastic day out to try the food before the wedding day. Vamos made the day easier by providing staff, table cloths, cutlery, and even helped us to set up on the day. Our Maitre d was attentive, sorting out the bar staff and waiters, as well as a bunch of excited wedding guests. Would definitely recommend!

10/10 for Vamos Paella (wedding catering)!
Melissa and Marcin catered for our wedding in September and we couldn't be more pleased that we chose them! They provided canapes, three different types of paella and a wedding cheese cake. Everything tasted delicious and all of our guests said how much they loved the food (and how generous the portions were)! You could tell straight away that the quality of the ingredients were top-notch. Melissa and Marcin provided us with an excellent service from start to finish - always very responsive, helpful and kind. Everything on the day ran smoothly - they arrived early and liaised with the two waiting staff we'd employed. We would also recommend the tasting session at Melissa's house which we did - this gave us a really great opportunity to try different paellas and canapes (and is very good value for the amount of food you can try)! Initially, we were only going to order the paellas and cheese cake, but were so blown away by the canapes during the tasting that we decided to order these too (the chorizo sausages are out of this world)! We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Melissa and Marcin to cater for your event (and in fact many of our wedding guests asked for their details)!

Delicious food, excellent service.
We cannot thank Vamos enough for the wonderful food and service at our wedding. The paella's were authentic and delicious and the service from initial enquiry to our wedding was excellent. Melissa spent time on the phone going through our day and at times it felt like we had our own personal wedding planner! Friends and family commented on how great the food was and the day ran smoothly. Thanks again Melissa and Marcin! x

Amazing wedding caterers
Vamos Paella catered for our wedding on 17th August and they did an absolutely amazing job - all of our guests commented how delicious the food was! The service was impeccable, you just went above and beyond and for that we are so so grateful! We couldn’t have imagined anyone we would rather have catering for our wedding and would definitely recommend them to everyone. From the tasting in Brighton, to the help with putting together the running order of the day, to the prompt response to my many many questions you were amazing and took away a lot of the stress that comes with organising a wedding in the middle of a field! Thank you thank you thank you!

They catered for our wedding in August and we were blown away by the service and the food. We were shocked by what they were able to provide for our budget and all of our guests loved the variety and the flavours.

Wedding caterers
Vamos Paella catered for our wedding at the end of June. From the first contact they were excellent, with quick responses/lots of help deciding about food etc, coping with numerous different dietary requirements etc. We had an excellent tasting session in Brighton for us and parents. They were very helpful in the run up to the wedding, advising on staffing needs and with late changes to the menu and sourcing crockery etc last minute for us. They also sourced staff etc, which again was one less thing to worry about. The fact that VP didn't need electricity/gas etc. was a real bonus as our venue didn't have any! They were also flexible on the day, helped serve our wedding cake as a desert and served tea and coffee for us. The food itself was delicious and we got lots of compliments from wedding guests. Thank you!!

Our wedding - 20th July
Vamos catered our wedding (140 people) on 20th July, and we could not have been more pleased. It was absolutely delicious, and we had complements throughout the night. There was SO much food with ample for seconds (occasionally thirds...) and plenty left over. They boxed up all the remaining paella, enough for a late-night snack or two... They also provided staff for the evening. We barely noticed they were there, which I mean as a complement! The staff were professional, went above and beyond, and really added to the smooth running of the event. Food was served quickly (which had been a concern of ours in the run up given our numbers) Pricing was very fair, and was similar to - if not a little cheaper than - similar services on both food and staffing. I would thoroughly recommend Vamos to anyone considering this type of thing for their event. Thank you so much Melissa and your team for being part - and making a real success - of our day :) Jim and Alice x
