Hog Roast???

I looked into this - still not decided. I would want a veggie option and sides to go with it. Also proper plates as i can't stand the idea of people having a napkin!

We are having sit down meal in day and a hog roast at night. I think its a great idea... something a little different and very tasty... mmmmmmm!!!!

I think its a great idea, although I would also want proper plates. I'd be gutted if I spilt fat down a new dress I'd spent a fortune on to go to a wedding!

I think its a nice idea very unusual.

I'd go for it!!

Im having a sit down meal then a hog roast in the evening, and we are using venue plates and cuttlery! Agreed on the paper!

There would be plates and cutlery! and there would be side dishes as well so just like a proper meal really just a bit more fun and informal. no veggies so don't have to worry about that!

I think we will probably go for this but don't want people to think we're just doing it cos its cheaper???

We did this for ours - basically a hog with hot and cold buffet and it went down really well. As we had proper plates, cutlery (basically sit down meal, but people had to help themselves) it didnt seem cheap at all - go for it!

I love the idea of a hog roast if I could have one at my reception I would.

I went to a friends wedding earlier this year. They had a sit down meal for the day do & then a hog roast for the night do

It was all lovely

That sounds pretty much the same as our option, and like you say will just be like a sit down meal except people help themselves. Glad yours went down well. Im much more convinced now! Thanks!

Hog roast! Hog roast! i've never had one myself but seen them at the farmers market and they smell yummy!!!! its something a bit different and if it saves you some money all the better. To be honest i don't think your guests will think its a cheap option, they'll be too busy fighting over the crackling!!!! i just mentioned it to H2B and he asked if we could have one.....

Glad to hear so many positive thoughts!

We've been to quite a few weddings with 'posh' sit down meals which, fair enough, have been absolutely ovely, but you soon forget the food if you know what i mean.

we like the idea that this is a bit different, a talking point, and will probably be remembered! also it seems more like a proper hearty meal which is just what you need on a nice cold winters day!!

We are having a hog roast at our wedding but for the evening. Everyone (apart from vegetarians) love a bit of hog. You cant go wrong.
