Colin was the perfect ceilidh caller and band all in one. I would go as far as saying he was better than a band and kept EVERYBODY dancing all night! Would highly recommend, especially if the venue is smaller as his set up took up hardly any room too.

The band were great fun: the caller was a great sport and kept us all engaged in the dancing. The band were generous with their time despite a late start due to our speeches running over. The harpist was kind and allowed a photo of me and the harp. We had a fantastic evening and everyone loved the ceilidh, would highly recommend the band.

Drop spindle were great, super professional and fun and they were happy to travel to my wedding which was a few hours for them so really appreciated. We had so much fun and loads of great feedback from everyone taking part!

We had a wonderful evening - a great variety of dances and some simpler ones. A truly inter-generational evening. The bagpipes playing me 'Happy Birthday' and then to close was an added bonus, which everyone thoroughly enjoyed. Thank you so much!

Everyone loved John's ceilidh, from the 87 year old grandfather to the 3 year old nephew! His calling was clear and comprehensible even to the uninitiated, he was very flexible with what we wanted for the event - and most importantly everyone had great fun! I would definitely recommend him to others.

The Forth Ceilidh Band are tremendously capable musicians. From the very outset when we met them, we knew we were in good hands! The band leader, David communicated well and was attentive to all we asked for. I can't recommend them highly enough.

The band played well and we enjoyed the performance. It seemed that they were overwhelmed by the numbers at our event and setting up took so long that we almost missed the opportunity.

Jiggered hosted a phenomenal ceilidh for our wedding! They brought a fantastic energy, and were great at teaching novice ceilidh-ers (which was about half the guests!). They encorporated all of our request into the evening and our guests, and us, absolutely loved it! They mixed classical and modern tunes into the evening in a way we loved. We would highly recommend Jiggered to anyone looking for a band!

The Rock Ceilidh band were absolutely amazing! Prior to the event, their communication was timely and polite. Their music was great and they got everyone dancing. Couldn’t have asked for a better band, and all my guests agree!

Ceithir were great at our conference dinner - very patient as most delegates had never been to a ceilidh before - great tempo to allow for a rest after the more energetic dances and a superb finish - we've had great feedback from our delegates, everyone had a great time. Would definitely recommend Ceithir.

The Sassenachs Ceilidh Band were absolutely terrific from start to finish! From communication in the build up to our wedding, to set up and performance on the day, we couldn’t fault a single thing. The band made the day so special for us and brought people from literally all over the world together to dance and have fun. The demonstrations and calling were so accessible and we couldn’t have asked for more! Thank you to the whole band for making our evening a night we will never forget. Mr and Mrs Baird

Simon and the Bass Rock Ceilidh band played a phenomenal ceilidh & DJ set at our recent wedding. Simon was professional and accommodating in all our communications and everyone had such fun, the blend of ceilidh and rock was amazing! Would definitely recommend.

Would definitely recommend! From the booking process to the actual night of, Lilac and CWU were so professional, easily contactable, and friendly. On the night the performance (both ceilidh and covers) was brilliant and brought so much energy and joy to our wedding. These guys are great!
