How our wedding hog roast works in Sarisbury Green
A slow roast suits a wedding day that runs late: it can be held for a while once cooked, so a long speech won’t ruin the food. Popular choices include crackling, spit-roast lamb and carved roast pork, and typical bookings are for marquee receptions and the day after the wedding.
For a smaller place like Sarisbury Green, a garden or farm wedding is often the dream. We need level ground, cover and a way in. Your quote spells out what’s included: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed, with no surprises on the day.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to other evening food, a hog roast serves a crowd quickly once carving starts. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
What you get with us
- Staff to serve, so you do not have to
- The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated

Questions from Sarisbury Green
Can you do a hog roast in Hamble Common?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first.
Is Sarisbury Green close to London?
Roughly 68 miles from the centre of London.
What if our venue has its own caterer?
Your venue decides: rules vary. We’ll talk to them about the cooking spot.
Will guests be full?
For the main meal, add sides such as salads and potatoes; for evening food, rolls are usually enough.
Do you provide china?
We supply plates as standard. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
Will there be enough to go round?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you’re feeding, so tell us your best estimate. The quote sets it out.
Where do you cook at a marquee wedding?
Always outside, away from the marquee walls. We can serve inside the marquee if the supplier agrees.
How far ahead should we book?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Send your date and we’ll check.
For planners, venues and organisers
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Marquee suppliers normally set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Where the roaster can go in Sarisbury Green
Most outdoor spaces can work with a little planning. Here’s what helps:
- A short walk from the serving station to the guests
- A level, open cooking spot outside the marquee or barn
- Permission for outside catering

What happens on the day
We work to your timings. If the day runs behind, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so keep us posted on the day. In Sarisbury Green, midsummer sunset is about 9:20pm, and by late September it is nearer 7:10pm, so evening food is frequently carved in daylight in June and July. For autumn and winter weddings, when it’s dark by about 4:00pm in December, plan lighting at the carving station.
- Choose the main meal, the evening food or both.
- We send a quote with the menu and staffing.
- We confirm the cooking spot and access with the venue.
- We set up and roast for hours.
