Almodington weddings: local tips
Almodington is about 4 miles north-west of Selsey, in West Sussex. We cover Almodington and its neighbours for weddings. Almodington is one of 371 towns and villages in West Sussex where we cater. We cater events right across the region, from Almodington to Southampton (26 miles away).
After a ceremony at a church like Earnley Church, many couples move to a marquee or hall nearby, where the hog roast is waiting. Guests coming by rail will want to know that the nearest station is Chichester station, about 4.2 miles north-east. The sea is within about 4 miles, so seaside venues are close. We will plan a sheltered cooking spot.
Wherever your wedding is in PO20, we can bring the roaster to you. Streets in the area include Second Avenue, Batchmere Road and Third Avenue, and a wedding on any of them works with a garden, drive or yard for the roaster. Neighbouring places where we cater weddings include Somerley (1 mile north-west), Earnley (1 mile south-west), Birdham (1 mile north), Highleigh (1 mile east) and Shipton Green (2 miles north-west). Within a short drive, we also cover Bognor Regis (6 miles east), Chichester (5 miles north-east), Selsey (4 miles south-east), Littlehampton (13 miles east), Emsworth (7 miles north-west) and Rustington (14 miles east).

What comes off the roaster
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Sides include salads, coleslaw, new potatoes and roast or jacket potatoes, depending on the season and the occasion.
Crackling
Long, slow roasting turns the skin into crackling, and there is a piece for everyone who wants it.
Looking after everyone
Tell us about dietary needs early and we’ll help. Some ideas:
- Pass numbers for vegetarians and vegans to us
- Halal is not offered, so plan separately if needed
- Ask about dietary needs on your RSVP card
- Count non-pork eaters, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
Give us your venue coordinator’s details, for access and timings.
China crockery can be added for the wedding breakfast, quoted separately.
The process
The secret is time: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin turns into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. Golden-hour photos in Almodington at midsummer come around 9:20pm, which helps us time evening food around your photos. Sunset is around 8:50pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September.
- Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
- We confirm the date and the venue and send a price.
- We agree timings with your venue coordinator.
- We roast during the day, then carve at the agreed time.
- Our staff serve and clear, then we leave quietly.
How to prepare
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
