"Funk With Us were just fantastic! We got married in August, and after the last year or so, it was just magical to be able to have a good dance with friends and family, and the band encouraged everyone to get up and dance - and that is what everyone did! Having a live band makes such a difference to the day, and we would truly recommend them. So many of our friends and family have been saying how very impressed they were with the band and that they absolutely loved the music and dancing. You were FANTASTIC!! ? Lilac and Remko were so helpful through the whole planning of the big day and answered all our questions. It was lovely to have a video chat to discuss the running of the day and 'meet' them before the Wedding day! They are both such friendly and fun people and reassured us we had definitely made the right choice with having a band! Thank you so much, you and your band will always hold a very special place in our hearts! ❤️"

"We chose Ceili Max after extensive research looking for Ceilidh bands for my husband's 50th birthday party. They provided a great atmosphere to get everyone on the dance floor, ranging in age from two years old to the young at heart Communication prior to the event with Tad was very responsive and clear. I had no worries about being let down at the last minute or any surprises. The band showed up on time, provided amazing music and went through the dance moves clearly. I wouldn't hesitate in booking Ceili Max again for another event."

"The band on the night were excellent and catered to all our last minute adjustments. The caller was supurb at knowing when people needed more instruction and when they were just best left to their own devices!"

"What a fantastic band! The booking process was easy and seamless, communication was great, and the band created a brilliant atmosphere at our joint 40th/60th family birthday party. Our very experienced caller got all the guests on the dance floor - with ages from 3 to 83, and a number of guests with wheelchairs, walkers and other mobility needs, that was no mean feat! We had a wonderful evening, and made some brilliant memories that will last a lifetime. All the guests thoroughly enjoyed themselves. Thank you so much to the band for making our special evening such a success!"

Could not recommend them highly enough. Thank you Mick and co. for a wonderful evening! Toby Donegan-Cross 4th September 2025"

"Hi Davie and the band. Thank you all so much for an incredible night. Everyone keeps talking about how great the band were. A lot of fragile heads and sore feet today, sign of a good ceilidh! "

"We had a great time ably assisted by the music and calling of the Black Velvet Ceilidh Band. Thank you so much! The band were very adaptable, as we changed the arrangement for the sets on the night, and reassured that they were there to entertain - which they certainly did. They got people up dancing from the first note to the last and many, many guests have commented how much they enjoyed the ceilidh."
