How our wedding hog roast works in Brightwalton Green

Rural weddings around Brightwalton Green have a magic of their own, and slow-roasted pork carved for guests adds to it. Plan a firm route in, especially if it rains. We bring plates as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

Common questions in Brightwalton Green
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We’ll follow the site rules.
We are gathering after a service at Church of All Saints: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Can you cook inside the marquee?
We cook outside, never inside the marquee.
What’s the price?
Every booking is quoted individually, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Tell us about your wedding for a quote.

Yes, Brightwalton Green is in our area. Send us the address and we’ll check the date.
Can we add a second roast?
Lamb and chicken are both available as a second option.
Do we need our own staff?
We carve and serve for you, and we clear up when service is finished.
What about coeliacs?
Ask for gluten-free rolls and we’ll bring them. You will get allergen details for everything.
About the food
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and our chef carves it to order.
Stuffing and apple sauce
A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing turn a pork roll into a hog roast roll, just as they should.
How the day works
Slow roasting is the whole point: the meat cooks gently until it’s tender while the skin crisps into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. At a December wedding in Brightwalton Green, it’s dark by about 4:00pm, so plan a lit path from the party to the food, while a June wedding has light until about 9:25pm.
- We start with your date, venue, numbers and running order.
- We check the venue and the cooking spot and send a price.
- We fit our timings around your running order and the venue.
- The hog roasts through the afternoon, and our chef carves on cue.
- Our staff clear the serving area and we leave quietly.
Getting ready for the day
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival

Why choose a hog roast in Brightwalton Green?
Some couples have a formal meal and a hog roast in the evening; others make the hog roast the main meal. A hog roast is frequently good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
Why us?
- Served at the time you choose
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- Choices for people who do not eat pork
Take a look at our prices page or the cost guide.
Allergies and dietary needs
Some guests won’t eat pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- If any guests need halal food, arrange it separately
- Give final numbers in good time
- Remember that stuffing typically contains gluten
- Ask about dietary needs on your RSVP card
Our staff serve and clear quietly, and leave you to celebrate.
Gluten-free rolls can be provided for the evening food.

Other occasions in Brightwalton Green
Organising for someone else?
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it is worth asking first. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Full catering or machine hire?
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Planning the cooking spot
A good cooking spot makes the day run smoothly. Ideally:
- A way in for the roaster
- A safe distance from marquee walls, buildings and trees
- Light near the carving station after dark
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
