Wedding hog roast in Oakley
Wedding hog roast in Oakley, slow-roasted on site
Couples book a hog roast for the main meal, the evening or both. We roast at the venue through the ceremony and drinks, then carve at the time you’ve set. For post-wedding gatherings and marquee weddings, we will put together a menu of salads, new potatoes and spit-roast lamb and more.
A wedding in a small place like Oakley frequently means a field, a barn or a family garden. A hog roast is made for that: no kitchen needed, just an outdoor cooking spot. Let us know about access and ground. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.

Within reach of Oakley are historic houses such as Boarstall Tower (1.5 miles north-west). Historic houses and estates often have rules on outside caterers, so check early if that is your venue.

A hog roast compared with other options
Next to a cold buffet, hot rolls carved to order go down much better late at night. Midweek and quieter months are frequently easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Ask us and we’ll suggest the best fit for your budget.
What you get with us
- We bring everything to cook and serve
- Carved to order by a chef
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
- An itemised quote
See our prices page and the cost guide.
Full catering or machine hire?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.

Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
We are gathering after a service at Church of St Mary: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.

Do you leave the area tidy?
Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.
How long does the roast need?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
DIY machine hire is available. We’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
When should we book?
Popular dates go early. But it’s always worth asking: send us your details through our quote form.
