Slow-roasted pork in Lathbury
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a three-course plated meal, a hog roast wedding breakfast is relaxed and normally costs less per head. It still feels like a feast. UK price guides vary widely: roughly £10 a head for a simple roll, rising past £20 with more included. Every event gets its own quote, so you know exactly what you’re paying for.

Wedding hog roast in Lathbury, carved to order
The carving station becomes a focal point: guests gather, the chef carves and the crackling disappears fast. It feels like an occasion. On the menu are crackling, halloumi skewers and salads, and we are often booked for weddings in a marquee and blessings and renewals.
Rural weddings around Lathbury have a magic of their own, and slow-roasted pork carved for guests adds to it. Plan firm ground and a route for our vehicle. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, slowly, over several hours, then carved fresh for your guests.
