Wedding hog roast in Westerton
Your questions about a hog roast for your wedding in Westerton
Is Westerton close to London?
About 52 miles from central London.
Can you cater after a service at The Parish Church of St Peter?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is normally elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Can we offer lamb too?
Of course: lamb and pork together give guests a choice.
Do venues allow outside hog roasts?
Your venue decides: some welcome outside caterers, others do not. We’ll sort the details with them.
When 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.
Will there be enough to go round?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we will confirm everything in writing.
What do you need from us on the day?
Only the space and a contact number. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
Do you bring plates?
Plates are included. China is available at an extra cost.
Wedding hog roast in Westerton, carved to order
Barn, marquee and garden weddings around Westerton suit a hog roast. The roaster cooks outside under cover, and the food is served in the marquee or barn. For wedding breakfasts with sides and post-wedding gatherings, we can cook halloumi skewers, rotisserie chicken and spit-roast lamb and more.
Rural weddings around Westerton have a magic of their own, and a whole hog roasting through the afternoon adds to it. Plan firm ground and a route for our vehicle. We bring plates as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

Working with your venue
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Booking for a club or group? A single point of contact keeps things simple, particularly when timings shift.
Is a hog roast right for your wedding?
Compared with a three-course plated meal, a hog roast wedding breakfast is relaxed and normally costs less per head. It still feels special. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
