"Black Velvet Band Ceilidh Trio – Viv’s 50th Birthday Ceilidh – January 2025 We had an amazing evening. Dan, Ned and Heather were brilliant. Firstly Dan was incredibly helpful and reassuring when I spoke to him a few weeks in advance. He was very relaxed but also incredibly reassuring that it would be fun and go well! He was very warm and I felt ‘everything would be alright’! They came very promptly and set up very unobtrusively. The music was perfect and Ned was a fantastic caller. He drew people in so well and had a very relaxed manner, he made it very enjoyable. Dan on the guitar and Heather on the fiddle were excellent! We had a fantastic evening of dancing with them. So many of our guests commented on how they made it such fun. They made it a great success. I highly recommend them."

"You were absolutely brilliant; I loved hearing you play the tunes we had selected for our ceremony itself and then to have you playing in the sunshine in the gatehouse gardens while we mingled and chatted to our friends with our fizz was wonderful. So many of our guests commented to us on how great you were and how lovely it was to hear a mix of modern and classical pieces being played so beautifully. A very personal thank you from me for playing my favourite song (One Day Like this; Elbow) twice for me, I knew that I wanted to walk out to it but I knew that I would be able to hear it all and I wanted to stand and appreciate it too. As it happened we had been whisked away into the Castle ruins to have our pictures taken when I heard you start playing it again and walking back through the castle and its formal gardens listen to my song on your beautiful instruments was a very special part of our day that I'll never forget. I would definitely wholeheartedly recommend you, you made our drinks reception feel very special. "

"From confirming the booking to making our wedding day an amazing party, Sax Life were fantastic. Professional and easy to communicate with they took all our wants and song list and made the day and night for us and our guests. They blended seamlessly into the venue, looking great and working with the venue staff to make our special day. The venue manager also told us how great they were. The first dance was made extra special with the sax and we couldn't be happier. I would recommend to anyone planning their special day."

"Joe was fantastic at our wedding. So easy to book and liaise with. He’s very easy going and worked around us completely. He arrived on time and played continuously until the planned finish time, he is very talented and his music was beautiful. I got a lot of comments from guests about how lovely it was to have music during the reception time. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to play for our ceremony and reception. You won’t be disappointed if you book Joe, I promise!"

"I was very happy with the whole booking experience and would use last minute musicians again. The duo arrived in good time to set up and both the musicians were very friendly. The residents enjoyed a pleasant afternoon and the music played was suitable "

"We just wanted to say a big thank you for playing at our wedding…You were great and lots of people have said how much they enjoyed the ceilidh, including us! It was brilliant to see the dance floor full all night, and it looked like everyone was having lots of fun, which is just what we had hoped for! We will certainly recommend Blackbeard’s Tea Party to anybody looking for a ceilidh band, and hope to see you again!"

"House of Chords were absolutely brilliant at our wedding. Everyone really enjoyed their sets which were tailored to us and our guests. They really got the mood going and maintained it throughout the evening, including in the DJ portions where they took our requested songs and fit them in brilliantly throughout. In addition they were friendly, helpful and professional from the start. We couldn't have asked for more."

"100% recommended! Do not hesitate to book this band - stop searching now as you have found the band for your wedding! Southwest Band recently played at our wedding in Suffolk and they were fantastic. Everyone was blown away by their talent, song selection and rapport with the crowd. The communication on the run up to the booking date was excellent. We look forward to seeing you again in the future. Thank you guys! 5*"
