Wedding hog roast in Shepperton, slow-roasted on site
A hog roast gives your wedding a centrepiece: guests gather, the chef carves and the crackling disappears fast. It’s food and a bit of theatre. On the menu are crackling, salads and new potatoes, and we’re regularly asked to cater farm weddings and small, informal weddings.
In Shepperton, a local ceremony and a marquee reception is a lovely, personal choice. The roaster cooks a safe distance from the marquee. Tell us about access to the field or garden. We bring plates as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.
Before you choose a spot
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way:
- A short walk from the serving station to the guests
- A level spot near, but not too near, the marquee
- A safe distance from marquee walls, buildings and trees
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

- If any guests need halal food, arrange it separately
- Remember that stuffing generally contains gluten
- Count non-pork eaters, for lamb, chicken or a vegetarian choice
- Confirm final numbers a week or so before
Running late? A slow roast can wait a little. Just keep us informed.
