"A great day, made even better by the efforts and skills of It's No' Reel. We all loved the jigs, reels and much needed help to get the dances right. Tom and the band went that extra yard to help with the first dance and farewell dance. Much appreciated and highly recommended."

"I took my Fiancé to a Blackbeard’s tea party gig in York with a view to see if he would like them to play at our wedding. As soon as they started playing, the place was bouncing and our decision was made. When they played at our wedding reception, we were not disappointed; they were so much fun, all our guests had an absolute ball! Be warned, put your dancing shoes on, because you will not stop dancing! They are just too scrummy to miss!"

"Another very successful New Year's Eve, with Andy driving the entertainment. So many of our guests made a point of commenting on how good Andy was, and how much they enjoyed the show. Same again next year? Thanks again Andy - excellent stuff as always. "

"Emma played during my daughter's ceremony and the drinks reception. The beautiful harp and fiddle music provided a lovely soundtrack to a lovely day. We couldn't have asked for more and we had many great comments. Communication was always prompt and helpful, with lots of choice of music. It will stick in my memory as a really special and personal feature of the day. Thank you Emma"

"Hello Ingrid Now all has settled I just wanted to send you a little note to say thank you for your beautiful singing at my Mother in Law’s funeral Mass. Yourself and (the organist) did an incredible job and made the whole service so special. Your communication and efficiency also helped tremendously at a really difficult time for us as a family. We are so very grateful. Best wishes to you and thank you once again. Kind regards "

"I hired Jess for our boxing day special and she was so good that we booked her for more slots during the year. She turned up on time and was pleasant and professional. We didn't have in house P.A. but she provided everything and set it all up. She also accommodated guests with impromptu covers which they asked for. A great night for all. "

"A big thank you to you and your fellow musicians in the It's No' Reel Scottish Ceilidh Band for making our retirement ceilidh a really memorable night. We were so pleased that we chose you, thanks really to your excellent website. You were thoroughly professional in your approach and from our first e-mail communications we got a sense of reassurance - even although we had never heard you play live. We were also pleased that we chose to have a second fiddle - that gave such a wonderful sound. A friend & I were putting finishing touches to things in the foyer while you were tuning up. You then started to play, we looked at each other, both gave a spontaneous 'thumbs up' and big smiles - we knew then that it was going to be a great night! We know from our friends and family that they all did have a great night and you were the most talked about part of the whole evening. I just wish we could do it all again so we could get more time to sit and listen to your music - it all went by in a bit of a blur for Greg & I. Apart from comments on your professionalism, the quality of your playing and the fact that you got the sound level just right - many people told us how much they enjoyed listening to what you played between the dance tunes. We did not need the disco playlist after all! I just hope that we are able to hear you play live again! Thanks once more to you all, you made our special night even more special. We would recommend you to anyone looking for a band for a special event - we could not have asked for more. Thank goodness you were free on the 27th!!"

"Oliver was kind enough to sing an acoustic version of Summer of 69 at mums funeral yesterday. The song was one of Mums favourites and the version Oliver sang was amazing and beautiful a wonderful tribute to my mum. He was easily contactable responsive and all round lovely young man who really made a difficult day easier. Thank you "

"Superb repertoire of songs from the past 7 decades. Ged's catalogue of singing and guitar playing was uncanny to the originals. Had us up dancing and singing through the evening. Interaction with guests was great and immediate responses to song requests. All our guests were asking for booking details. We will definately book Ged again. Left us shouting for more at the end of the night!"

"A belated but big 'thank you' for a wonderful session on the 20th June. Your guitar playing was outstanding, and the sound that you created with the oud was remarkable. Fantastic all round. I hope we have occasion to book you again. You are a truly talented musician and we are honoured that you could perform at our celebration."
