The day after a wedding can sometimes feel a little quiet, the whirlwind of celebration starts to settle and guests begin to make their way back home. But at Holly Bush Farm in Matlock, the magic carried on for just a little longer, thanks to a relaxed, laughter filled feast served by the team at Hog Roast Matlock.With 80 guests still soaking in the joy from the previous day’s celebrations, the couple chose to host a laid-back farewell gathering before everyone hit the road. We arrived at this picturesque countryside venue, ready to serve up one last memory and some seriously good food.
The couple opted for our popular setup, complete with our signature whole roasted hog roast, sage and onion stuffing and a vibrant selection of sides. It was a casual, rustic vibe that was perfect for guests to gather, share stories from the night before, and enjoy one more delicious meal together. Our chefs served from elegant bamboo crockery, keeping the feel eco friendly without compromising on quality.
For guests looking for plant-based or meat free alternatives, we were more than happy to provide a veggie/vegan option, ensuring everyone could tuck in with full plates and happy hearts. Alongside the freshly carved pork and crackling, we served up a pasta salad bursting with flavour, a mix of fries (because who doesn’t love chips the day after a party?) and a generous selection of wraps and bread rolls, including gluten-free choices.
It wasn’t just about filling bellies, it was about holding onto the moment a little longer. Watching friends and family gathered in the sunshine reminiscing and saying their goodbyes over great food… that’s what we love most about what we do.
A huge thank you to the newlyweds and their guests for letting Hog Roast Matlock be part of your weekend. We were honoured to serve up the final course of your celebration and to be the last flavourful memory before everyone headed home.
