  1. booked Price of My Pig for a wedding

    Verified

    We had a wonderful time dancing away to PoMP on our wedding day. The band was absolutely excellent; they were all so friendly, talented and extremely accommodating of our very low level of ceilidh-dancing ability! They also provided a DJ set after the ceilidh which went down a treat with our guests. We really had the best time and would highly recommend this band.

  2. booked The Jacobites for a wedding

    Verified

    The Jacobites were absolutely amazing at our wedding! They had the perfect mix of songs that kept everyone dancing, had great energy and were very professional. We had a lot of overseas guests who had never seen a ceilidh before and they managed to keep everyone on track and made sure we all had a great time. Would highly recommend them!!

    They were fantastic! All of our wedding guests praised them for creating a great atmosphere for our post-ceremony drinks. They were really accommodating to our needs (set times, venue, budget) we had mel on fiddle accompanied by guitar and they sounded brilliant and played lots of familiar little jigs/trad songs. Would highly recommend them a dhope to hear them play again. Thank you 'over the moon'!

  13. booked Allan yn Y Fan for a wedding

    Verified

    Allan yn Y Fan were fantastic in every way. They arrived punctually but were completely relaxed about waiting half an hour to set up as our timings had slipped a bit. They did a fantastic 'first dance' for the bride and groom when the recorded song they were due to dance to didn't work, and then led a great ceilidh with a great mix of dances for about an hour. We then had a pause and they were really happy to play background music as people chatted and enjoyed evening refreshments. Their musicianship was of the highest standard, their flexibility incredibly helpful, and their engagement with the guests really warm. Can't recommend them highly enough! Thank you all!!

    The Brim were the perfect ceilidh band for our party. They turned up in good time and were very adaptable and happy to fit in with our timings, but more than anything they were great musicians and had a really happy, jolly and fun caller and all in all made our night just perfect. If we had another barn dance we would book them again without hesitation. Can't wait for the next time!
