How it works
Carving is part of the show: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. Evening food at a Childs Hill wedding often goes out just as the light fades: about 9:20pm at midsummer, 8:55pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September. Festoon lights by the carving station look lovely in the photos.

Catered or do it yourself?
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
