How our wedding hog roast works in Leagreen

Common questions in Leagreen
Can you cater after a service at Church of All Saints?
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 usually elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the New Forest National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
Do we need extra food?
For the main meal, add sides such as salads and potatoes; in the evening, rolls on their own work well.
How do we prepare?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We will bring the rest.
Can the hog roast be for the evening?
It is one of our most popular wedding bookings. Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling go down well after dancing.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
Can you cater in Leagreen?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, Leagreen and the rest of Hampshire included. Tell us the venue and we’ll quote.
How much does a hog roast cost?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Send us the details and we’ll quote.
What happens on the day
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, use the cooking spot you’ve chosen, and roast, carve and serve without fuss. For a summer wedding in Leagreen, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:10pm in late September, which means an evening hog roast is generally served in daylight in high summer. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it is dark by about 4:05pm.

Looking after everyone
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- If any guests need halal food, arrange it separately
- Confirm final numbers a week or so before
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Request gluten-free rolls if needed
Our staff serve and clear quietly, and leave you to celebrate.
Some couples add lights around the serving area.
Full catering or machine hire?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.

If you are a venue or event planner, we are happy to work alongside your team, sharing timings and a site plan.
