"Hi Fiddlestix, Thanks again for the wonderful ceilidh you and your band put on for us last Saturday. I have written a review for you to use below. Warm regards Julie Fiddlestix played a mix of English, Irish and Scottish music at our wedding breakfast in December. Both the musicians and the caller were excellent and we all thoroughly enjoyed the ceilidh. Many of our guests took to the floor, some of whom had never participated in a dance before. When numbers dwindled at the end of the evening, the band switched to performing Elvis Presley songs which got some of our remaining guests up and dancing. People have told us how much they enjoyed the music. Thank you, Fiddlestix, for providing us with such fun. Julie"

"The Shooglers were real stars at our wedding in Lochgoilhead in October. They performed a perfect mix of ceilidh and rock covers, sometimes in the same dance! It really had everyone up on the dance floor for most of the evening. Afterwards everyone wanted to know where we'd got them from including the venue co-ordinator who sees bands every week. Most of all, they have a great sense of humour - they realise it's all about everyone having a great time. Thanks again guys, you were awesome. "

"I meant to e-mail last week and say you and your band are bloody awesome! That was a total American thing to say, but honestly, I am not just saying that you guys are great! My husband loved it too – he loves Pink Floyd so when you were singing The Wall through the ceilidh music it was brilliant. I totally love ceilidhs they’re great fun, and the current music at the end was really good too! I took a few of your cards so will defo be recommending you!! "

"We booked Luc Walpot to play at our winter wedding and we were not disappointed. His beautiful selection of music set the tone for the day and our guests were very complimentary. We would highly recommend Luc to anyone organising a wedding or for any event. His beautiful harp playing completed our intimate wedding. Many thanks. Simon and Leanne."

"From start to finish the service provided by Stargazers and their manager was perfect. Regularly in touch via email and all questions answered within 48 hours. The performance was everything we wanted and more. Friendly and involved all members of the party in most performances. I put a lot of trust in the band for music choice and was not let down. Would and will recommend to anyone who is looking for a wedding band going forward. "

"Blue Jewel Ceilidh Band were brilliant from start to finish, from the moment I contacted them to the moment they left the party. E-mail conatct prior to the party was always timely and informative. Their performance was briiliant - they had everyone up dancing and they were so patient with all the children (and adults) learning the moves. I would most definately hire this band again. I also thought they were a very reasonable cost. Thank you Kip and friends. "

"Just a quick note to say thank you so much for playing so brilliantly at the event on Saturday. There has been lots of positive feedback from the event, and we really hope that you will be able to play for us again next year. Thank you especially for managing to get through the programme in such limited time, to make the evening stress free for all of us! "

"So friendly and high attention to detail. Super engaging and encouraging. Most know little to about line dancing (myself included), but this crew had everyone in lock step within minutes."

"Thanks very much for a fantastic ceilidh for my birthday party. The music sounded great, and you managed to build a really good atmosphere where people felt relaxed about joining in with the dancing, and almost everybody did! "

"I should say how much I enjoyed the ceilidh and your superb playing. It was a delight to both listen and dance to. You all have an extraordinary ability to drive the music whilst retaining an intricate coherence to it all – quite remarkable when you play without drums. And I know I'm not alone in enjoying the music; a number of friends made a point of saying how much they enjoyed it."
