About our wedding hog roast in Blenheim
A wedding hog roast can be the wedding breakfast, the evening food or both. The hog roasts slowly at your venue through the afternoon, then carve at the time you’ve set. Typical bookings include evening receptions and marquee receptions, with spit-roast lamb, carved roast pork and halloumi skewers.
A wedding in a small place like Blenheim frequently means a field, a barn or a family garden. That’s where a hog roast shines: no kitchen needed, just an outdoor cooking spot. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. Our staff serve and clear, so nobody in your party has to serve or tidying up afterwards.

Is a hog roast right for your wedding?
Some couples have a formal meal and a hog roast in the evening; others have the hog roast as the main event. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
Why us?
- Carved to order by a chef
- Planned to your running order
- The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
For event organisers in Blenheim
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it’s worth asking first. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.

Blenheim questions
We’re gathering after a service at Church of St Mary: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Do you come out to small places like Blenheim?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you cater in Blenheim?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Blenheim and Oxfordshire. Tell us the venue and we will quote.
What space does the roaster need?
A flat, open spot outside, and a way to wheel everything in. Send us a photo if you’re unsure.
What if things run late?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
What happens in bad weather?
Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
How much does a hog roast cost?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Tell us your date and we will send a price.
What about coeliacs?
Ask for gluten-free rolls and we’ll bring them. You’ll get allergen details for everything.
Prices and what affects them
We do not use a fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:
- How long the roast and service take
- The date and time of year
- The journey to the venue
- Site access
When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
What to tell us
To check the date and the space, we’ll need:
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- Allergies we should know about
- The venue or postcode
- What the outdoor space is like
Planning ahead? Popular dates fill up early, so ask early for summer Saturdays and December. Send us your date for a quote: use our quote form.
Looking after everyone
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Confirm final numbers a week or so before
- Ask for gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Halal isn’t offered, so plan separately if needed
- Give your coordinator the final menu
We’re on site for much of the day, working quietly in the background.
Gluten-free rolls can be provided for the evening food.
Full catering or machine hire?
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
What happens on the day
Slow roasting is the whole point: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. At a December wedding in Blenheim, it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the route from the reception to the hog roast needs lighting, while a June wedding has light until about 9:25pm.
- You tell us your date, venue, numbers and whether it is the wedding breakfast, the evening or both.
- We check the venue’s rules and the date, then send a quote.
- We agree arrival, cooking spot and serving times with you and your venue.
- We roast during the ceremony and drinks, then carve at the agreed time.
- We clear away once everyone has eaten.
Preparing for the day
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
