Every wedding reception is entirely unique and should be perfect for the bride and groom. For couples wishing to enjoy a relaxed and intimate reception, hosting the event in your back garden can be a great idea. At Hog Roast Taunton, we have plenty of menus that are ideal for this occasion, ranging from formal dinners to casual buffets. Here is what you can expect when Hog Roast Taunton caters for your garden reception this summer…
Maria and her fiancé live on a wonderful farm in Somerset and their garden is their pride and joy. Each year they add new plants and décor to their garden, turning it into the perfect outdoor space for any occasion- including their wedding reception! The pair decided that a garden reception would be the perfect place to celebrate their wedding since it is already beautifully decorated and right on their doorstep! Hog Roast Taunton was hired to cater for the occasion and our manager Alistair was contacted to discuss catering options. It was decided that a classic hog roast would be ideal, alongside a tasty meat-free option.
On the day of the wedding, the Hog Roast Taunton team arrived at the private residence in the morning and got to work preparing for the 2:00pm serving time. We began by slow-roasting the hog, which needed to cook for around five hours. Once ready, the pork was expertly carved and served in fresh bread rolls, alongside sage and onion stuffing, homemade applesauce, and crispy crackling. Additionally, we served BBQ-pulled jackfruit, which is a delicious alternative to pulled pork. For the sides, the guests could enjoy, homemade chips, gourmet coleslaw, corn cobettes, and a selection of seasonal salad dishes. Overall, the menu was the perfect addition to the event and had plenty for everyone to enjoy. The reception was a beautiful event and went exactly as the couple had planned!
