History
Established in 1985.
Black Tie has been around for over two decades, but it wasn't until David and Shelley McKernan took over the company in 1997 that the business started to realise it's potential. The McKernan's mantra, borrowed from Oscar Wilde, has been the back bone of the organisation's mission statement for the past 15 years:
"I have the simplest tastes. I am always satisfied with the best."
It has been with this adage that Black Tie has done what few caterers are capable of, craft memorable events around food. For us, food is the focal point of all of our events, a point from which everything else follows suit. Whether it is a sumptuous private degustation dinner for ten friends or a lively corporate cocktail party for hundreds, Black Tie creates food that is sure to stick in the memory.
That's why Black Tie isn't just a caterer, it's an experience.
