"Blue Jewel Ceilidh Band have been playing at our annual barn dance for the last few years and I can't recommend them highly enough. We are a befriending service providing support and activities for the over 50s to promote social inclusion and independent living. As part of our Active Steps programme which offers weekly dance classes across Plymouth, we organise one-off events including ceilidhs. Blue Jewel always bring out the best in our participants with their great music and friendly, approachable manner - it is the highlight of our year! "

"It's No' Reel performed at our wedding at the Albert Halls in Stirling in November. After hearing such great things about them, we actually changed the date of our wedding to ensure they would be free to play! They didn't disappoint on the day. With a mixture of Scottish, English and international guests we thought we would have some ceilidh followed by a disco, but in the end everyone was having such a good time that we just kept on with the ceilidh. From my seven year old nephew to an octogenarian great-aunt, everyone was up dancing all the time. And once the day was over we had a really fun Go Pro video to watch back. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend It's No' Reel to anyone wanting a memorable evening."

"Kolarides Jazz Duo were absolutely perfect for our event. They arrived in plenty of time and were efficient and polite. Despite the heat, they played for a full three hours with a very short break and the music was absolutely spot on. Many of our guests asked about them and I would highly recommend Martin and Henry to anyone for a similar event. Thank you for making our Golden Wedding celebration a memorable occasion."

"Harpist Encanta played beautifully during the drinks reception on our Wedding Day. We first saw her at an Open Day at our venue and we fell in love ! She was a pleasure to speak with during our booking process and she played all our requested songs. If you’re looking for a talented harpist, look no further ! "

"Lucy and Jack were amazing at our wedding. Everything we could have hoped for. They were great at learning my song requests for the whole day. Very reasonably priced for the incredible service they provide. Intimate and happy atmosphere created by their beautiful voices and musical talents! Completely perfected the musical genres we wanted of modern country and pop, with couple of older songs too. For any brides out there I highly recommend Lucy and Jack, and to have live singer whilst walking down the aisle, it was one of the most memorable parts of my day."

"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! "

"The Rejigged Ceilidh Band played for our wedding a couple of weeks ago at High Rocks and they were absolutely wonderful! The talented band performed for us an incredible Scottish Ceilidh and dressed accordingly! The music was superb and the caller made the dance easy for all our wedding guests to follow! We even received a congratulations on our wedding card from the band! Their communication was superb, the music remarkable and we cannot recommend them more highly! Thank you Rejigged!"

So many people have commented and your details have been asked for by a few people, some who were not even there, word must have spread haha. We will 100% be doing this again some time and will be having you both back! "

"Dear Fiddlestix, We are back from honeymoon and have finally caught up with ourselves, and I just wanted to send you a (rather belated!) email to say a huge thank you to you and the ceilidh band for the fantastic playing at our wedding. Everything went really well and everyone really enjoyed the ceilidh - we've had loads of comments from our guests about how much fun it was (special thanks to the brilliant caller), and it got everyone up on the dance floor! It was a really special part of our day and great way to end the night. Many thanks, Helen and David"
