WHERE ELEGANCE MEETS SUSTINABILITY
We believe in creating luxury events with a conscience, combining fine dining elegance with a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. Every detail is guided by sustainability, from responsibly sourced ingredients to innovative waste reduction practices, ensuring our impact is as positive as the experiences we design. By working closely with trusted partners, we craft menus and moments that are memorable, meaningful, and always aligned with our vision for a more sustainable future.
Our Team
Discreet Events is owned and run by a trio of passionate and experienced individuals.
​After a combined 55 years working in hospitality ranging from Three Michelin Star Kitchens, high-end luxury events in listed buildings, to private events in the middle of a field in the pouring rain, we felt like there was a gap in the market for a high-end caterer who in addition to offering amazing food, puts emphasise on doing so in a sustainable, ethical, and socially conscious way.
