About our wedding hog roast in North Aston
For the wedding breakfast, a hog roast becomes a plated meal: roast pork, crackling and a choice of sides, with china available on request. We are frequently asked to cater marquee weddings and intimate weddings, serving crackling, carved roast pork and halloumi skewers.
There is something special about a country wedding near North Aston, and slow-roasted pork carved for guests adds to it. Plan a firm route in, especially if it rains. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.

For event organisers in North Aston
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
For workplace bookings, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We’ll fit in with site rules.
How the day works
Slow roasting is the whole point: the meat cooks gently until it is tender while the skin turns into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. Winter weddings in North Aston are dark by about 3:55pm, so plan a lit path from the party to the food, while a June wedding has light until about 9:30pm.
- Send us the date, venue and guest numbers.
- We check the venue’s rules and the date, then quote.

Planning help
DIY versus a catered hog roast
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is generally easier.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Planning for dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Halal is not offered, so plan separately if needed
- Pass numbers for vegetarians and vegans to us
- Share the menu with your venue coordinator
- Put a dietary question on the invitation
On your wedding day, the food should look after itself. We arrive hours before serving, roast through the day and carve on cue.
For a sit-down meal, ask for china, quoted separately.
Perfect for your wedding in North Aston
No kitchen is needed at the venue, which suits marquees, barns and gardens.

Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Time on site

- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays

The main driver is numbers: the price per head normally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
