At Hog Roast Lewes, we love being part of wedding celebrations, and our latest event was a beautiful example of how food, flexibility, and teamwork can make a big day unforgettable. We recently catered for a wedding party of 75 guests, serving up a feast that perfectly matched the couple’s relaxed and joyful celebration.
The menu was a hit with everyone. The star of the show was our succulent hog roast, slow-cooked until the meat was tender and juicy, paired with golden crackling and our signature apple sauce. For vegetarian guests, we served grilled vegetable and halloumi skewers, bursting with flavour and a great alternative to the main roast. To complete the spread, our team prepared fresh mixed salad and creamy coleslaw, providing light, refreshing sides that balanced the meal perfectly.
While the food was central to the celebration, what made this wedding truly memorable was how adaptable our team proved to be. On the morning of the event, weather warnings for strong winds meant the original outdoor location could no longer be used. This could have caused major stress for the couple, but thanks to the calm and experienced leadership of our catering manager, Marco, and the professionalism of our team, the change was handled smoothly.
Within hours, we re-set the catering arrangements at the new venue, ensuring everything was ready on time. Guests hardly noticed the disruption, and the happy couple were able to enjoy their special day without worry. It’s moments like this that show how important flexibility and teamwork are when it comes to event catering.
As the newlyweds celebrated surrounded by their loved ones, the food flowed, the atmosphere buzzed, and the party went ahead just as planned. For us at Hog Roast Lewes, being part of such a joyful occasion – and helping make it seamless even in the face of last-minute changes – is what makes our work so rewarding.
Congratulations once again to the happy couple, and thank you for choosing Hog Roast Lewes to be part of your big day.
