Prices and what affects them
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Whether you want china
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- The date and time of year
- How many people are eating
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.
Getting an accurate quote
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- The venue or postcode
- Roughly how many people
- Your date and serving time
- Which meats and sides you’d like
Numbers not final yet? Give us your best estimate and we’ll quote on that, then confirm closer to the date. Fill in our quote form.
Wedding hog roast in Wolverton, carved to order
The carving station becomes a focal point: people gather round as the chef carves. It feels like an occasion. We serve salads, halloumi skewers and spit-roast lamb, and typical bookings are for the main wedding meal and small, informal weddings.
Rural weddings around Wolverton 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, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.
Planning the cooking spot
Most outdoor spaces can work with a little planning. Here’s what helps:
- A route to wheel equipment to the spot
- Light near the carving station after dark
- Serving inside the marquee or barn if allowed
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

Should I cook it myself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:
- Give your coordinator the final menu
- Put a dietary question on the invitation
- Give final numbers in good time
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
On your wedding day, the food should look after itself. We roast through the afternoon and carve at the agreed time.
China crockery can be added for the wedding breakfast, as an extra.
