The process
Your timings come first. If things run late, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so tell us as soon as plans change. Evening food at a Fernham wedding often goes out just as the light fades: sunset is around 9:00pm in late May, 9:30pm at midsummer and 7:10pm in late September. A few lights by the serving table help guests and photos alike.
- You tell us your date, venue, numbers and whether it’s the wedding breakfast, the evening or both.
- You get a check on the date and venue, and a quote.
- Timings and the cooking spot are agreed with you and the venue coordinator.
- We roast during the ceremony and drinks, then carve at the agreed time.
- Afterwards we tidy our area and leave you to the party.
Getting ready for the day
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches

- Share the menu with your venue coordinator
- Ask about dietary needs on your RSVP card
- Note which guests do not eat pork, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Halal isn’t offered, so plan separately if needed
We serve and clear without fuss, and leave you to celebrate.

Other occasions in Fernham
Should I cook it myself?
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
Before you choose a spot
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- Approval from the venue or marquee supplier
- Light near the carving station after dark
- A level, open cooking spot outside the marquee or barn
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
If your venue has an in-house caterer, check whether you can bring in a hog roast. There may be a fee. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. There is no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.
Why Fernham hosts choose us
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- Planned to your running order
- A clear quote with everything listed
- Crackling for everyone who wants it

Questions from Fernham
How far is Fernham from London?
Roughly 64 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you cater after a service at Church of St John?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is typically elsewhere. Send us the address.
What if our venue has its own caterer?
Your venue decides: rules vary. We’ll talk to them about the cooking spot.
Can we have a hog roast as the main meal?
It works well as a relaxed main meal, with alternatives for non-pork eaters.
Is mains power needed?
No, the roast is cooked on gas. Let us know what’s on site.
What space does the roaster need?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, and a way to wheel everything in. Send us a photo if you are unsure.
Is a hog roast enough for a wedding?
Quantities are based on your guest list, and the quote lists everything.
Is crockery included?
We supply plates as standard. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
Organising for someone else?
For venues and planners, we’re happy to work alongside your team, sharing timings and a site plan.
