With wedding season in full swing, the team at Hog Roast Penistone has been basking in romance, good vibes, and the joy of helping happy couples tie the knot in style. Every wedding we cater is a one-of-a-kind celebration, and we love that no two days are ever the same. But one recent event in particular really stole our hearts…
As April drew to a close, we had the absolute pleasure of catering for Charlotte and Alex, a wonderful couple who chose a beautifully personal setting for their big day – Charlotte’s parents’ back garden! The sun was out, the drinks were flowing, and love was well and truly in the air.
The garden, lush and vibrant, was the perfect space to host their 100-strong guest list. A striking mirrored welcome sign and balloons filled with golden confetti set a celebratory tone for the day. And of course, when it came to the food, Hog Roast Penistone pulled out all the stops to deliver a feast worth remembering.
Charlotte and Alex wanted something bold, delicious, and a little bit theatrical – and what fits that brief better than our signature hog roast? As the rich aroma filled the air, guests gathered around to watch the pork being carved and served with all the trimmings. We’re talking soft gluten-free and wholemeal buns, crispy crackling, homemade applesauce, and savoury sage and onion stuffing. It was a carnivore’s dream come true.
But don’t worry – we didn’t let the veggies and vegans go hungry! Our grilled veggie skewers, stacked with perfectly charred sweetcorn, peppers, and red onion, were a huge hit, especially with the refreshing tzatziki dip on the side. Add in generous portions of classic and sweet potato fries and bamboo bowls filled to the brim with vibrant leafy salads, and our creamy, crunchy gourmet coleslaw, and there wasn’t an empty plate in sight.
From heartfelt speeches to garden games, it was a day full of joy – and we were honoured to be part of it. Congratulations, Charlotte and Alex! May your marriage be as warm, flavourful, and unforgettable as your wedding day feast.
