The process
We work to your timings. If things run late, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so keep us posted on the day. For a summer wedding in Punnett's Town, the sun sets at about 9:15pm in late June and about 7:00pm in late September, so evening food is often carved in daylight in June and July. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it’s dark by about 3:55pm.
- Send us the date, venue and guest numbers.
- We check the venue’s rules and the date, then quote.
- We fit timings around your running order.
- The hog roasts through the afternoon; our chef carves on cue.
- We serve, tidy up and slip away.
Getting ready for the day
