"From start to finish Stargazers's manager kept in regular contact with me and my partner, ensuring that we were kept in the loop, reassured and happy ahead of our wedding. On the day itself the band was FANTASTIC! Exactly what we wanted, with a great mix of songs (our age group ranged from 4-80!) which kept everyone entertained. Stargazers were professional throughout, and friendly, ensuring we were having the best time. In addition, the band were efficient in set up and pack down, arriving and departing quickly and quietly too. We would be sure to recommend them to anyone, especially weddings! Thanks Stargazers!"

"Thank you so much for such a great night! Our first dance song was played so so well and you kept everyone on the dancefloor. Thanks for having our friends up to sing as well and apologies for their performance of Grace Kelly!"

"A huge thank you to Tom and the Its No Reel band who were brilliantly superb from our first email to the last dance of our wedding. No query went unanswered nor late and Tom accommodated our every needs. It couldn't have been easier booking them and we knew just how good their ceilidh music was from their videos. Our families are frequent ceilidh dancers and they were very impressed by the music and calling and everyone thoroughly enjoyed it. Even those unknown to ceilidh dancing were happily enticed to the dance floor and taken through the steps. The ceilidh was one of the most fun parts of our wedding day and I'd highly recommend everyone to hire Its No Reel! Thank you very much for a fantastic end to our wedding day and we hope to see you again!"

"I hired Blue Jewel Ceilidh band to play for my 60th birthday party at my local village hall. I had never heard them play before but going on previous recommendations I felt certain they would be okay. How right I was! Well, if fact they were more than okay - they were bandtastic! Their playing is brilliant and they created a fantastic atmosphere. Steve made sure he brought me and my husband and sons right into the swing of things, mentioning us by name whenever he could and he certainly made it feel like "my" party and not just any old party they might be playing at. There was quite a mix of ages, but everyone joined in with the dancing, (yes, even my non-dancing- unless-he's-had-a-few-pints, husband!!). Steve and his colleague were excellent callers and made the dances very easy and great fun. We are still laughing and talking about what a wonderful evening it was. I have no hesitation in recommending Blue Jewel. They will make your party go with a swing! "

"The band was really amazing when we had to reschedule our wedding because of covid. They are such a great band and do a ceilidh like no other. Fab band!"

"Thanks you so much The Shooglers for playing at our wedding in April. I booked you after receiving a recommendation from the bass player of my own band. He was at a function you guys were playing at last year and he raved about you so much i was really glad you were able to play for us. There were guests from Canada, Dublin and New Zealand at our wedding and they were all joining in and everyone had a superb night. I especially enjoyed how you blended in rock and pop tunes with some of the Ceilidh dances. I will definitely recommend you guys to anyone I can and if I organize another bash in the future i'll be looking The Shoogle up! Thanks so much on behalf of my new wife Wendy and myself."

"Everyone enjoyed the lively tunes and the caller really made the dancing fun" We absolutely loved Wraggle Taggle (21st October 2023 Saturday Glebe Ln, Maidstone, Kent}, everyone enjoyed the lively tunes and the caller really made the dancing fun. I would definitely recommend. Thank you so much for a fabulous evening. Kerry Theophanides 27th October 2023"

"Lilac, Remko & The Band, Thanks very much for the performing for us, it was fabulous. We have wonderful memories of our wedding day and feel so lucky to have got married before all the madness began and for your band to have been part of our special day. We meant to send you photos from our photographer, I will dig them out now while I remember. Hoping you and your family are well and managing at what I am sure is a terribly difficult time. Best wishes, Mark "

"Spriggan played at my wife's birthday party recently and really helped to make the occasion even more special. Their infectious blend of folk-rock and great songs went down well with our guests of all ages. They are excellent musicians who sing and play with enthusiasm and fun. Highly recommended"

"These guys are fantastic! We booked them for our wedding in Nov 2019 and they were really flexible on the size of the band to accommodate our budget, and even with just the 2 of them it was a spirited and fun filled ceilidh. Many of our guests had never been to a ceilidh before, and Charlie had no problems calling out the dances and helping make sure that everyone had a great time. They arrived with plenty of time and setup without any fuss. The whole experience was very professional and I'd thoroughly recommend Iron Broo to anyone looking for a great night of ceilidh dancing!"

"You were AMAZING!! Everything about you and your team was awesome. You made me feel so comfortable in communications beforehand and I wasn’t worried about a thing as a result. And I was right not to worry, as it was perfect from start to finish. The music and the 'calling' were the best I have ever come across. And the piper too was brilliant. I seriously couldn’t recommend you enough! My feedback is 100 per cent positive. A brilliant party made a million times more brilliant by you and your team! Thank you SOOO much."
