Crafting Your Unforgettable Wedding Feast
At Greedy Pig Catering, we believe your wedding food should be as unique and personal as your love story. Starting as a butcher-owned hog roast company and evolving into a chef-owned, wedding-focused catering service, we’re passionate about using local meats, seasonal vegetables, and bold flavors to make your day truly special. Based in Derby, we proudly serve couples across Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire, the Peak District, Leicestershire, and Staffordshire.
A Relaxed, Friendly Approach to Wedding Dining
Planning a wedding can be overwhelming, so we offer a relaxed and approachable catering experience that puts your vision first. Our goal is to create a sociable, memorable dining experience that feels just right for you. Whether you want generous sharing boards, creative canapés, feast tables, or picnic-style spreads, we specialize in catering to couples who want something fresh and less traditional for their wedding breakfast.
Bespoke Menus Tailored to Your Tastes
Your wedding menu should reflect who you are as a couple. While we provide example menus to inspire you, every menu is crafted around your preferences. Whether you dream of a Persian feast, a classic roast, or perfectly cooked steaks, we’re excited to bring your ideas to life. We also cater to all dietary needs—including vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free—without ever compromising on flavor or quality.
Diverse Catering Styles for Your Perfect Day
To match the unique vibe of your celebration, we offer a variety of service styles designed to create a seamless and enjoyable experience for you and your guests:
- Family Style Sharing: Enjoy a relaxed, interactive meal with beautiful platters and bowls passed around the table, encouraging connection and conversation.
- Individually Plated: For a more traditional feel, choose from classic or contemporary menus served by our professional front-of-house team.
- Feast Tables & Grazing Tables: Impress your guests with visually stunning, generous spreads that invite mingling and self-service.
- Picnics and Ploughman’s: Perfect for tipi weddings or casual celebrations, these charming, rustic options feature handmade classics with a creative twist.

What is your most memorable wedding?
They all hold a place for us, but we love the ones where you see the joy on peoples faces! And we love witnessing that first bite of a canape!
Describe your style in 5 adjectives.
Relaxed, cool, inventive, stylish, tasty!
What about your business are you most proud of?
The amount of amazing couples we have fed, that we then see as guests and they are still raving about the food!
What is your No.1 wedding planning tip for couples?
Ask! Ask the question. It may sound daft, but there are no daft questions, and you'd be amazed at what we can do.
What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?
I think every wedding is hugely personal, but individual favours that were personal to each guest was superb!
Describe your typical process with a couple.
Relaxed! Come see us, we'll build a menu and a quote. We take £100 to secure the date. Come for a tasting and tweak the menu, then we take a deposit. 8 weeks before we sort numbers and dietaries, then take the balance. EASY!
How would you wow the Judges on Masterchef?
Depends who they have by that point!!
What is the most innovative dish you have created for a wedding?
FAR too many to name. From recreating family recipes, to making dishes based purely on flavour profiles, we've done too many!

Anything cooked with passion.

PASSION!!
