"Well done and thank you to all of you for making our Excellence Awards night at the Cafe de Paris such a success. We were flooded with compliments about the night and in particular the entertainment - absolutely brilliant! Apart from that you were one the nicest group of people we have ever worked with - you were all a pleasure and talented too! if there were more like you in corporate entertainment my job over the years would have been so much easier! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you all. "

"Although not 5 piece as requested, 4 piece was more than sufficient. (It saved £100 as well). We did dances not done before plus two/ three favourites so really good. The calling was good and as usual patience was required in sorting out the muddles!! Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves, so a big thank you to the DGB ceilidh band and we would definitely recommend them and have them again."

"It was a fabulous evening! Thank you so much for the wonderful joyful music. Noeleen’s excellent calling skills resulted in lots of people keen to get up and dance! It was such a fun night. Looking forward to doing it again! It was such a great night and we were both touched that you remembered our wedding reception! Thank you to all the band and especially managing us all in such a tight space. We hadn't anticipated so many dancers up on the floor! Look forward to seeing you again sometime"

"Black Velvet Band Ceilidh Trio – Angela’a Son’s Wedding – August 2025 Black Velvet Band Ceilidh Trio were brilliant at our son’s wedding. They arrived promptly, set up without any fuss, played two brilliant sets , were very generous with their time and got everyone dancing. Mike called the dances clearly and gave people chance to have a quick practice. Mike encouraged everyone and the dance floor never emptied. The band really helped make the wedding very special."

"Thank you once again for an outstanding performance at The Big Shindig. You really know how to keep that dance floor full :). Love the way you do a ceilidh and I hope you would be willing to attend The Big Shindig next year?!! "

"They were lovely people and everyone there enjoyed their music. It was a Country Fair and due to their efforts we had people dancing on the grass with straw bales around to sit on. Happy people! Job well done. Thank you. We would certainly book them again for another event."

"Such a fun dancing evening! The ceilidh was a definite highlight of our wedding. Everyone joined in and had at amazing time. It was lovely to see all our guests dancing and laughing together. The band went out of their way to ensure our wedding celebrations went smoothly - they helped us with the cake cutting, our first dance and had a lovely surprise for us at the end! Highly recommend."

"The band were an absolute delight, just the right mix of professional musicians and informal enough to mix in with people and jolly them along. They were completely marvellous and everyone had a great time, even though some people had never done ceilidh dancing before and were a little shy."

"It was great to see you and the band at Radley last week, and can I just say once again how much I enjoyed your music that evening. I've danced to your band a number of times but never have I heard such great tunes"

"Scotch Snap made sure our daughter's 21st birthday party was a brilliant night. The dancefloor was filled from start to finish. The music was excellent- it was quite simply the best ceilidh ever!"

"I just wanted to pass on how thrilled we were with Rebecca's playing on Saturday. The visual and audio spectacle really set the scene and our guests were so complimentary about it that we were delighted. Many thanks and best wishes. "

"We were lucky enough to have Blue Jewel play for the ceilidh at our wedding reception in Devon in October. Throughout all of our dealings with Steve, he was professional, responsive and friendly which helped to relieve some of the stress of planning the day! On the night the band were fantastic and were able to coax up loads of people to take part, many of whom had never been to a ceilidh in their life. Everyone had a great time; we particularly enjoyed the special wedding dance where everyone danced around us in a circle – people are still mentioning it to us! Thanks so much for everything, you helped make our day."
