  4. booked Berking Mad Ceilidh Band for a private event

    Verified

    We hired Berking Mad Ceilidh Band for our birthday party of around 100 guests - they were absolutely amazing. Communication was very clear throughout and they were really helpful and patient when we were planning timings of the night etc. The actual event was perfect - the level of the dances was perfect for us (lots of people who had had a few drinks and not danced much before!). The band were fun and entertaining, doing a few songs in between dances too which was nice. Really an amazing evening and could not recommend enough. Thank you so much!!

  6. booked CARACANA for a private event

    Verified

    Very professional and punctual service. Pema was super helpful in the buildup to the event, customising the programme to meet my specific requests. They delivered a superb hybrid Scottish Celidh and Cornish Nos Lowen set that was well received by all. The band were very flexible and accommodating as timings flexed throughout the night. I would highly recommend their services.

  7. booked Monkey See Monkey Do for a wedding

    Verified

    Monkey See Monkey Do provided brilliant, lively music for our wedding on 22nd June 2024. They got everyone up on the dancefloor and guided us through the steps, dealing with any number of people who wanted to join in! It was a wonderful part of the day. The band were polite, professional and friendly. They also added on a DJ service for us at the last minute, which was really appreciated. Thanks so much to the group!

    Absolutely amazing! We had our event outside and it rained and they had us up dancing. The calling was incredible, most people had never been to a ceilidh before and everyone knew the steps by the end. An incredible evening thank you so much 😊😊😊

    Had a superb experience with the Ceòl Beag Ceilidh Band who played at our wedding. The band kindly learnt x3 Jewish wedding songs to play as part of the ceilidh which made our experience particularly special. Would recommend.

  13. booked John Carver Reels & Ceilidh Calling for a private event

    Verified

    We struck gold with John for our daughter’s 21st! Book him quickly and thank your lucky stars! The ceilidh was huge fun and everyone could follow his instructions. His experience comes through in his relaxed manner and perfect pacing of dances and breaks to go and have a drink and a chat. We thought it worked well to have a set before supper and one after, segueing later in the evening into a disco. John is incredibly well organised and delightful company.

    Scott Leslie Ceilidh Band were nothing short of sensational. We’ve been to lots of Ceilidhs and we couldn’t have asked for a more perfect band for our wedding. Fantastic energy, friendly, accommodating and brought a lovely atmosphere to our celebration. Good vibes all round and everyone from our wedding has commented to us about how fabulous they were. Thank you so so much for making our day extra special. Vanessa and Frederick x

  20. booked Captain Bullhead Ceilidh Band for a wedding

    Verified

    These guys were AMAZING. Robin the caller was brilliant - helped to explain everything so clearly and was so good at getting everyone involved. We had the best time ever dancing with these guys. I would recommend 10/10 to anyone looking for a fun and inclusive ceilidh band (who can get even the most musically challenged group dancing along!!!). Thank you all so much for playing at our wedding - we had the best time and you guys made it so much fun.
