How our wedding hog roast works in Prestonville
Not every guest eats pork, so we plan for that: lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. Halal meat is not available. Typical bookings include the main wedding meal and evening food after the first dance, serving salads, crackling and spit-roast lamb.
Weddings in a place like Prestonville often feel personal: a local church, then a marquee in a garden or field. We roast outside, well clear of the marquee. Let us know about access. Our staff serve and clear, so nobody in your party has to serve.

Prices and what affects them

Prestonville questions
Is Prestonville close to London?
About 46 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Could you cook in Preston Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first.
Can we just hire the roaster?
DIY machine hire is available. We will confirm what comes with it and how to use it.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
Ask for gluten-free rolls and we’ll bring them. You will get allergen details for everything.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Do you come to Prestonville?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, Prestonville and the rest of Brighton and Hove included. Send us the address for a quote.
Is a hog roast enough for a wedding?
We’ll plan quantities from your numbers, and the quote lists everything.
Can a hog roast be our wedding breakfast?
Yes. We serve it on plates with salads and potatoes, with china available, with our staff serving.
Catered or do it yourself?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
The menu, dish by dish
Crackling
Crackling is what people queue for: crisp, golden and full of flavour.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Coleslaw is the natural partner for a pork roll, and salads and new potatoes work well on a plate.
Step by step
Here’s how the day typically runs: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and our chef carves it when you are ready.
