  1. booked Eccentric Pony for a wedding

    Verified

    Thank you SO much for bringing so much fun to our wedding reception, you were absolutely amazing! We were so sad when it all ended, if we could do it over again I don't think we would have left the dance floor all night! We've recently had our wedding video back and it has been so nice to see everyone having the best time in the evening. So many people commented on how much fun they had, and how great you all were! From allowing a bit of karaoke (thank you!) to getting our first dance song spot on to keep the most perfect song choices coming, it was amazing and we couldn't recommend you all enough. All the best, Dan & Becky

  3. booked for a wedding

    Verified

    Great band - a fantastic mix of classic songs and new tunes that had everyone at our wedding reception dancing. We were advised setup time would be 1 hour but it ended up taking over an hour and a half - the fact England had just lost to France left the mood flat whilst we waited for setup, but this is more an observation than a complaint as they were fantastic.

  5. booked Buchanan Ceilidh Band (BCB) for a private event

    Verified

    David and his band were fantastic. They really helped make my mum's 80th such a special event. Not only are they talented musicians, David's ability to engage the audience and get everyone dancing and singing was terrific. I had though that, with most guests being in their 70s and 80s, it would be a gentler affair, but it was so much fun that the dance floor was packed and we had so many comments about how good they were. What was great to see, and feel, was how much the band enjoy playing. Thank you so much! We'd love to book them again if the occasion arises!

  9. booked Elliot Cox for a funeral / memorial service

    Verified

    I booked Elliot to play the "Last Post/Reveille" at my Father-in-Law's funeral. I was very impressed with Elliot! We communicated well and he interpreted exactly what I wanted. He arrived early on the day, was smart and just "got on with it". Everyone commented on how lovely the trumpet tribute was, and afterwards, Elliot checked in with me to make sure everything was OK before he left. On a day like a funeral, you want everything to go well, and Elliot made me feel very confident that everything would - and it did! Highly recommend Elliot! Gina Russell (Chichester)

    The Burdock Ceilidh Band were absolutely excellent. They were inviting, friendly, wonderful musicians, very personable and very receptive to the needs of the people at the party so as to include all physical abilities possible in the dancing. I would recommend them to anyone for a party. Thanks for a great evening.

  13. booked Wiltshire Piper for a funeral / memorial service

    Verified

    Tony was worth every penny - a real treasure. He came for my mother's funeral and took time before to advise us on the right music. He also chatted with the staff at the crematorium so he was also able to play in the flower garden afterwards. Relatives who were Scottish came and had a little cry as my mum was led down - it was just perfect and I would definitely recommend him.

  14. booked The Element String Quartet, Trio & Duo for a wedding

    Verified

    'Element Trio performed at our wedding in August 2022. The trio performed for an hour is the blazing heat, creating a lovely atmosphere with modern songs we'd chosen from there repertoire. I asked for Bridgerton and they delivered. Many guests commented on what a delightful addition they were to the day. SImilarly, Luke took to the piano during our evening drinks reception, after the wedding breakfast. Subtle and smooth, he added warmth to the welcome and created a relaxed atmosphere for a wonderful evening.' Many thanks, Clare & Charlie
