Wedding hog roast in Ewelme, slow-roasted on site
A wedding hog roast can be the wedding breakfast, the evening food or both. We roast at the venue through the ceremony and drinks, then carve at the time you’ve set. For vow renewals and blessings and late-night wedding food, we can cook rotisserie chicken, carved roast pork and salads for your guests.
A wedding in a small place like Ewelme often means a field, a barn or a family garden. That is where a hog roast shines: no kitchen, just level ground and cover. Let us know about access and ground. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will give you the allergen information for every dish.

The process
Rain doesn’t stop the roast, because we cook under cover. Your guests will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. In Ewelme, midsummer sunset is about 9:25pm, and by late September it is nearer 7:10pm, which means an evening hog roast is usually served in daylight in high summer. For autumn and winter weddings, when it’s dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting at the carving station.
- Choose the main meal, the evening food or both.
- We send a quote with the menu and staffing.
- We confirm the cooking spot and access with the venue.
- We set up and roast for hours.

Your questions about a hog roast for your wedding in Ewelme
How far is Ewelme from London?
About 43 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Is Ewelme too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Where will the roaster go at our wedding?
The roaster stays outdoors on level ground.
Is mains power needed?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. Power can help with lighting after dark.
Do you serve the food?
No need for your own staff: we carve, serve and tidy up.
Can you work around our timings?
We’ll be as flexible as we can. Give us a contact on the day and we’ll fit around changes.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. Serving indoors is usually fine if the venue is happy.
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.
A closer look at the menu
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, turned until the skin is golden.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Choose from salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes, to suit your event.
Planning for dietary needs
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Collect dietary needs with RSVPs
- Note which guests do not eat pork, for lamb, chicken or a vegetarian choice
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Give final numbers in good time
We serve and clear without fuss, and leave you to celebrate.
Festoon lights by the carving station look lovely in evening photos; tell your venue or marquee supplier.
