  2. booked Ceilidh Minogue for a wedding

    Verified

    We booked Ceilidh Minogue for our wedding, and they were absolutely delightful from start to finish. First and foremost, they are an excellent ceilidh band. Two of the band played at the ceremony, and then all three at our reception ceilidh. They were very clear in their communications about the type of music they'd be playing and we got exactly what we asked for. The guys themselves were lovely and really accommodating, nothing was a problem for them or fazed them at all - which was very, very welcome given the stress of the morning! I would wholeheartedly recommend them for your wedding I'd you are considering them. Our guests loved them as much as we did!

    A wonderful evening with a wonderful band. It made our night so much more memorable, especially since we had guests from Canada who had never been to a Scottish wedding reception.

    The Jacobites played a ceilidh at our wedding at the East Yorkshire Barns, and were excellent! They created a really fun atmosphere and had almost all of the guests on the dancefloor, even those who had never been to a ceilidh. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone.

  11. booked The Jacobites for a wedding

    Verified

    The band were world class. I'm from Edinburgh and we got married 22/9/22 down in Cheshire. Getting married in England wasn't going to stop us from having a massive ceilidh for the evening entertainment. This band were extremely accommodating and it was no problem at all for them to travel down for the event. They quoted very fairly and very flexible with delays as always happen with weddings. The band's caller Thorne was friendly, professional and a true expert at getting everyone up to the dance floor. My family is Scottish but my wife's are from Ireland and I think the biggest testament was the fact that the dance floor was packed full the entire night! I would hire them again in a heartbeat I couldn't imagine a more fun and traditional way to end our wedding. Cheers lads!

    The guys did an absolutely amazing job playing at our wedding a couple of weeks ago. They did such a good job at getting everyone up on the dance floor and the instructions for each dance were perfect! There were a lot of people who had never been to a ceilidh before but everyone we've spoken with absolutely loved it ☺️. It was such a highlight of the day! Thanks so much again

    We had Triple Scotch Ceilidh Band as the ceighly band for our wedding. They were absolutely fantastic. They took a group of enthusiastic beginners through loads of different dances easily. The videos are brilliant, and everyone had a great time. Only comment would be to make sure timings are all agreed in writing in advance.
