Phoebe booked Ceilidh With Us for a wedding
Friday, 8th September 2023
VerifiedWe had an amazing time at the Ceilidh for our wedding and all of the guests loved it too! Lots of fun, laughter and amazing memories! The band were brilliant and very professional. There were just a couple of last minute changes that we wish we had been notified about sooner than the day before the event but understand that sometimes it goes that way with events. Overall, we are very pleased that we booked the Ceilidh and we had a wonderful time.

VerifiedAbsolutely fantastic. They played at our wedding in September and they were brilliant. Great musicians and caller, lively and energetic, great variety, super flexible with arrangements (including when we had some last minute troubles and they were great in accommodating new dances on the spot). Everyone loved them and had a fantastic time. Can’t recommend enough.

VerifiedAbsolutely perfect. Haven't a 'constructive' word to say; John is the reel deal (apologies, irresistible if unoriginal).

Jonathan booked Triple Scotch Ceilidh Band for a wedding
Tuesday, 5th September 2023
VerifiedPerfect match for our daughter's wedding. Uber flexible and can-do, provided seamless high quality music throughout (ceremony, reception, Ceilidh and disco afterwards. Particularly good with the Ceilidh - managed a very raucous mixed age bunch of 100 guests with great skill, patience and humour ("now hold out your OTHER left arm, Robbie..."!). Definitely hire them again if we ever have a need. Recommend highly.
John booked The Riot Band for a birthday party
Tuesday, 5th September 2023
VerifiedCouldn't have been better! The caller, who was in addition to,the 4 piece band explained everything very clearly for the newbies but also briefly so we could get on with the dance. They were happy to 'fall in' with exactly what we wanted and chose dances appropriate to our age and skill levels. Really good

Olivia booked Cragganmore Ceilidh Band for a wedding
Saturday, 2nd September 2023
VerifiedWe can't recommend Cragganmore Ceilidh Band enough - they were brilliant! The majority of the guests attending our wedding had never done a ceilidh before, but the band were extremely patient and very encouraging to those who slightly lacked coordination! Lots of our guests have told us since that they really enjoyed the music and had so much fun. Thanks so much to Cragganmore Ceilidh Band for helping to make our day so special!

Hannah booked The Frank Reid Scottish Dance Band for a wedding
Tuesday, 29th August 2023
VerifiedExcellent ceilidh for our wedding really broke the ice and got everyone up and dancing together. We had lots of first-timers who now can’t wait to ceilidh again. Frank & Co were lovely too. Very professional and really didn’t need a lot from us. We had another band coming on afterwards which complicated matters but they communicated in advance about the changeover and it went smoothly on the day.
Melissa booked John Carver Reels & Ceilidh Calling for a wedding
Friday, 25th August 2023
VerifiedWe had an absolutely fantastic time doing and outdoor Ceilidh with John for our wedding! He was very friendly and communicative before the event to help us figure out timings and logistics, was very understanding when things had run a bit late and thimings changed slightly and was incredibly professional in bringing all his equipment etc. We had a international group of 50 where about 3/4 had never even heard of a Ceilidh and some didn't speak English, but John explained and let us demonstrate everything so clearly and well that everyone managed to participate and enjoy themselves! For many of our guests it was an absolute highlight of the wedding. The dances John chose were perfect for the occasion - we had specified that we didn't particularly want the pressure of a "first dance", so he included everyone from the start but made sure to give us, as the newlyweds, plenty of moments to shine in little dances where we were partnered up. We also loved the dances he arranged for us where we got to dance with a range of different people from the party, meaning we'd pretty much danced with everyone by the end of the 2 hours! John had a very good feel for when we all needed a break and water, and managed to convince us all to come back to the dancefloor after a little break despite our tired feet. I could not recommend the experience more! Thank you John! :)

VerifiedCeithir played for our wedding and were absolutely fantastic! They were so lovely and easy to work with from start to finish, always communicative, and were very understanding and flexible when discussing our requirements for our wedding reception. Plenty of our guests approached us afterwards to say how much fun they had at their first ceilidh, and we're very grateful to Ceithir for their enthusiasm and for making sure the dances were easy to follow and fun for all the first-timers. Thank you so much once again for everything and we're so happy to have booked with them!
