Kyle was brilliant. He played accordion for our wedding and I can't recommend him enough. Communication up to the day was excellent, I appreciated how relaxed and reassuring he was. The Accordion set he did was brilliant, his music filled the space despite him playing alone. His DJ set up was amazing; he met the needs of the crowd perfectly; we received so much positive feedback about the playlist. The dancefloor was filled all night. I even recall Kyle teaching some curious guests how the DJ booth worked. Kyle was brilliant. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We had booked a ceilidh/disco package for our wedding as I was abit unsure if all of my guests would have liked a ceilidh all night. All I can rate this as is 10/10, Kyle was brilliant at settling my nerves on the run up to the event, I was getting in touch all the time with new requests and he put my mind at ease. The ceilidh/disco package was a huge success with everyone getting reminded of the steps for the ceilidh part too! 5* will use again!!
