Diets, allergies and alternatives
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Share the menu with your venue coordinator
- Pass numbers for vegetarians and vegans to us
- Put a dietary question on the invitation
- Note which guests do not eat pork, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
On your wedding day, the food should look after itself. We roast through the afternoon and carve at the agreed time.
Festoon lights by the carving station look lovely in evening photos; tell your venue or marquee supplier.
For planners, venues and organisers
If you are booking for a workplace, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We work to the site’s rules.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before you book. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
Space, access and the venue
We need room to cook safely and under cover. Before booking, check:
- A serving area close to where guests eat
- A level, open cooking spot outside the marquee or barn
- Lighting for evening service
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
