Wedding hog roast in Lyneham
How our wedding hog roast works in Lyneham
Your venue and we agree the cooking spot and timings well before the day, so on the day everything is in place. On the menu are rotisserie chicken, halloumi skewers and carved roast pork, and typical bookings are for small, informal weddings and weddings in a marquee.
Near Lyneham, weddings are often in fields, barns or gardens. That is where a hog roast shines: no kitchen needed, just an outdoor cooking spot. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.

How we price a hog roast for your wedding
The price comes down to:
- Season and day of the week
- Time on site
- Whether you want china
- The journey to the venue
Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
Details that help
To get the best quote, send us:
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Any venue rules
- Where the event is
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
To get a quote, just tell us the date, where the wedding is and roughly how many. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Use our quote form.
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:
- A level, open cooking spot outside the marquee or barn
- The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
- Clear space away from the marquee and any branches
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
