In Farnham, evening wedding food often coincides with dusk: about 9:20pm at midsummer, 8:55pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September. A few lights by the serving table help guests and photos alike.
- Send us the date, venue and guest numbers.
- We confirm the date and the venue and send a price.
- We agree timings with your venue coordinator.
- The hog roasts through the afternoon; our chef carves on cue.

Wedding hog roast in Farnham, slow-roasted on site
Wedding timings shift, and a slow roast copes well: a cooked roast holds for a while, so a long speech will not ruin the food. We serve rotisserie chicken, new potatoes and halloumi skewers, and we’re regularly asked to cater wedding breakfasts with sides and evening food after the first dance.
In a town like Farnham, a ceremony and then a marquee or hall reception is a classic combination. That’s ideal for a hog roast: the roaster cooks outside while guests celebrate. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.
How we price a hog roast for your wedding
Your quote depends on:
- How long the roast and service take
- How many people are eating
- Crockery choices
- How easy it is to reach the spot
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
What we need to know
To check availability and the cooking area, we will need:
- Your date and serving time
- Allergies we should know about
- Roughly how many people
- Which meats and sides you’d like
Getting a quote is simple: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. We’ll reply with a clear price and what’s included. Send us your details through our quote form.
What we serve, dish by dish
Roast pork
Our chef carves the pork as it’s needed, which keeps it hot and moist.
Spit-roast lamb
Spit-roast lamb is popular alongside the pork, and handy for anyone who doesn’t eat pork.
