Wedding hog roast in Mundy Bois
Looking after everyone
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Count non-pork eaters, for lamb, chicken or a vegetarian choice
- Confirm final numbers a week or so before
- Give your coordinator the final menu
- If any guests need halal food, arrange it separately
Our staff serve and clear quietly, and leave you to celebrate.
China crockery can be added for the wedding breakfast, as an extra.
Wedding hog roast in Mundy Bois, slow-roasted on site
Your venue and we agree the cooking spot and timings well before the day, so on the day everything is in place. Whether it’s post-wedding gatherings and the main wedding meal, we’ll put together a menu of salads, carved roast pork and rotisserie chicken and more.
A wedding in a small place like Mundy Bois frequently means a field, a barn or a family garden. A hog roast is made for that: no kitchen, just level ground and cover. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, low and slow, for hours.
Perfect for your wedding in Mundy Bois
You don’t need a kitchen, which suits marquees, barns and gardens.
A hog roast suits a wide range of occasions in Mundy Bois. Here are some of the most popular:
- Marquee weddings
- Late-night wedding food
- Home weddings
- Anniversary vow renewals
Nearby historic houses include Godinton House (5 miles east). Grand venues like these usually set rules for outside caterers, so ask before you book.

How we price a hog roast for your wedding
Each price is built from:
- The serving time and how long we are on site
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- The number of people
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
The main driver is numbers: the price per head typically falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.
What to tell us
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- An estimate of numbers
- Allergies we should know about
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- What the outdoor space is like
The quickest way to get a price is to send us your date, venue and numbers. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Use our quote form.
Catered or do it yourself?
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves 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.

How the day works
We get there well ahead of service, since slow roasting can’t be rushed. Your guests will smell it long before they see it. In Mundy Bois, midsummer sunset is about 9:15pm, and by late September it is nearer 7:00pm, which means an evening hog roast is usually served in daylight in high summer. For autumn and winter weddings, when it’s dark by about 3:50pm in December, plan lighting at the carving station.
- We start with your date, venue, numbers and running order.
- We check the venue’s rules and the date, then send a quote.
- Timings and the cooking spot are agreed with you and the venue coordinator.
- We cook through the day and serve right on cue.
- We clear away once everyone has eaten.
Preparing for the day
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Think about shelter for your guests
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
