Wedding hog roast for Falconwood
Your questions about a hog roast for your wedding in Falconwood
What if our house in Falconwood has no side access?
Frequently, if there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.
We’re gathering after a service at Bishop Ridley Church: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is typically elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
What about guests who do not eat pork?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. Halal meat is not something we offer.
Do you need power or water?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.
Do you cover Falconwood?
We do. Tell us the venue or postcode and we will check the date.
Do you provide china?
We bring plates as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we’ll add it to the quote.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is frequently possible, with the venue’s agreement.
Can you do gluten-free?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
Wedding hog roast in Falconwood, slow-roasted on site
Your venue and we agree the cooking spot and timings well before the day, so on the day everything is in place. Popular choices include crackling, carved roast pork and spit-roast lamb, and we are frequently booked for evening food after the first dance and intimate weddings.
Couples in Falconwood frequently hold the reception at a local venue or at home. The roaster needs an outdoor spot under cover, away from the building, so check with the venue early. We plan the timings around your day, because the roast has to start hours before you eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.

Space, access and the venue
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- Serving inside the marquee or barn if allowed
- Flat ground outside the reception for the roaster
- Clear space away from the marquee and any branches
As a London location, Falconwood is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.

How the day works
We roast under cover, so a shower will not spoil the food. Your guests will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn.

- We start with your date, venue, numbers and running order.
- You get a check on the date and venue, and a quote.
- We fit our timings around your running order and the venue.
- We roast during the ceremony and drinks, then carve at the agreed time.
- Afterwards we tidy our area and leave you to the party.

- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
