We had a fantastic ceilidh with Triple Scotch Ceilidh Band. Oli chose a great mix of dances for a very diverse crowd who loved it all. Perfect balance between traditional and funky sound and giving instructions and just getting on with it to make an evening full of positive energy. One guest commented on how everyone had smiles on their faces. Thank you for a great celebration!

We booked the Jacobites for our wedding in Northumberland and they were absolutely awesome. They had the entire wedding on the dancefloor with the Ceilidh, and given that half of the people at the wedding had never done Ceilidh dancing before, they were great at calling it as well!! I can't recommend them enough, they were one of the highlights of our wedding for sure :)

James provided an excellent service. Very personable and made the evening a great success entertaining a wide range of ages and backgrounds. Guests who had never experienced Barn Dancing before thoroughly enjoyed themselves. Thank you James.

Could not have asked for a better ceilidh band at our wedding. The whole band were enthusiastic and happy throughout the performance. The caller was very thorough when explaining the dances to the guests so that everyone knew what they were meant to be doing. All the guests have fed back at now great the ceilidh was and how it made the wedding. Would definitely recommend to others.

We had an excellent evening with the Glenpark Ceilidh band. They completely complied with the suggestions that we made for the evening which allowed us to enjoy dancing, listening to their music and the opportunity for our guests to chat to one another. Everyone enjoyed the evening.

Rufus Return ran a fantastic barn dance for us, the caller getting out into the crowd was a bonus and made the event for us

I can't recommend the Thom Hardaker Ceilidh Band enough. They were punctual, played our requested playlist and generally entertained our wedding guests for 2 hours. The great thing about Thom is that he is a really nice guy, as are the rest of the band. Well done guys.

David and the band are amazing! Got everyone up and dancing and I had a lot of guests saying how much they enjoyed it! Highly recommend. David is responsive, friendly and communicative running up to the day. I would give 6 starts if I could.

I don't even know where to begin with a review! We had the pleasure of Chris and the band playing at our wedding and they were incredible, with great communication before, during and after, bringing a personable approach making sure my Grans favourites were played! Every person I know came up to me and not only said how amazing the band were as musicians but also a friendly bunch of people!! They got our evening reception off amazingly and I will forever be grateful to have had them play for us - the pleasure was truly ours!!

They were great once they got there but they were very hard to get hold of. I thought they wo9uld get in touch after final payment was made and waited. After not hearing anything I got a number off their website for one of the band members and messaged. I was then told to phone another band member who dealt with bookings. Phoned three times during he allocated hours he said he was available with no answer, then got a text confirmation from him hours later. Was quite curtly told that I did not give them enough notice for them to do covers, despite what there name and the list of covers available on their website would suggest.
