Frequently asked questions
Ham carving in Dublin & Ireland
Do you cover all of Ireland, not just Dublin?
Yes. We cover Dublin and the whole of Ireland — Cork, Galway, Limerick, Kilkenny, Wicklow, Meath and everywhere in between. Country house and castle weddings outside Dublin are a big part of what we do. Travel is included in the quote.
Can I hire a ham carver for my wedding in Ireland?
Absolutely — weddings are our most popular service in Ireland. An iberico ham carving station during the drinks reception creates a genuine wow moment. Guests love watching the carver work and tasting freshly sliced ham. We work with your wedding planner or venue to fit the carving seamlessly into the day's schedule.
Where does the ham come from? How do you source it in Ireland?
Exclusively from Spain, from the main denominations of origin. We work with established importers based in Ireland who handle all customs and veterinary compliance. This means the ham arrives with full traceability and in optimal condition — you don't need to worry about any of the import logistics.
How much ham do I need for a wedding drinks reception?
For a typical Irish wedding drinks reception of 100–150 guests, two to three hams work perfectly — one bellota for the wow factor and one or two cebo de campo to keep slices flowing throughout. For a smaller gathering of 30–50 guests, one ham is usually enough. We advise on the exact quantity when we send your quote.
Do you work with tech company events in Dublin?
Yes. Dublin's tech sector hosts frequent corporate events — product launches, team celebrations, client entertaining, Christmas parties — with high catering standards. Live iberico ham carving fits that brief perfectly: it's premium, interactive, and unlike anything else on the catering circuit. We coordinate directly with your event team or agency.
Can I book ham carving for a Christmas party?
Yes — the Christmas season is one of our busiest periods in Ireland. Live ham carving works brilliantly as a centrepiece for corporate Christmas parties, office celebrations and festive private dinners. We recommend booking early for December dates as availability fills quickly.
What is a ham carving station?
It's a dedicated live food station at your event. The master carver sets up with the iberico ham on its stand, professional knives and serving plates. Guests come up and are served freshly carved slices throughout the event. It's a Spanish food entertainment experience that works as both a visual spectacle and a delicious tasting — a format that's new to the Irish market and makes a real impression.
