"Thank you so much for being part of our special day. Your performance was absolutely first class and really added a touch of class to our wedding. We can't thank you enough. It was truly magical to hear some of our favourite music played so beautifully by the quartet. What a wonderful way to personalise our wedding day. Thank you for being so accommodating and efficient in the lead-up to the day as well - any bride-to-be will tell you what a blessing that is!"

"Amazing performance and so easy to book and host. Contact was so easy leading up to the event, and was made so much simpler by them liaising with the reception event location directly to sort out logistics. The Ceilidh itself was incredible and just what my wife and I wanted! Great music and fantastic calling, Jake was so friendly and involved everyone in all the dances, which is just the inclusive atmosphere we wanted. They were also really accommodating when (inevitably) plans ran behind a little bit by the evening and the Ceilidh start needed nudging back 10 mins - which helped us out massively. Thoroughly recommend, had plenty of our guests asking who they were and where we found them!"

"I was lucky enough to book Kit at relatively short notice to play at a lunch held to celebrate my parents diamond wedding anniversary. It was a surprise gift for my parents and he was keen to make the event extra special. In all my dealings with him prior to the event he was flexible and accommodating, eager to build in some of our ideas as well as offer some of his own form past experience. On the day he turned up with plenty of time and set up discretely in the room while other arrangements were a made. He played 2 sets and left us with background music to enjoy in between. His choice of playlist was spot on for the audience. The lunch was for just over 30 people who all thoroughly enjoyed Kit's playing and his singing. All agreed it really made the event come to life and has been the subject of many positive comment since, most importantly my parents were delighted with the surprise. Thanks again to Kit for his marvelous contribution"

Thanks, Di! It was a very pleasant occasion and I enjoyed playing and singing for you all. Glad that you and your party had a good time. I found you nice and easy to deal with too and would be happy to do another one next time you have a suitable occasion. - KP.

"Stevie recently played at my wedding, his professional attitude to performance made our day special. It takes years of dedication to become an accomplished piper, I know this first hand. I highly recommend Steve to play for you on your special day, you will remember it for whole of your married life. Jim. (24th September 2021.)"

"Matt delighted our wedding guests with his truly adaptable style; classic hymns during the service itself, iconic film soundtrack for the procession out of church - and a very helpful addition to any groom's speech; ten 1980s TV soundtracks seamlessly woven into improvisation whilst we awaited the arrival of the (very lovely) bride! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend."

"Thank you Vinyl & Velvet for making a lovely 70th Birthday into something really special. We booked Vinyl & Velvet as a surprise at the end of a small afternoon birthday celebration for our friend. Vinyl & Velvet and her husband were very professional, arrived on time and set up really quickly (and quietly). The sound system was great - even without being able to do sound checks. Vinyl & Velvet was so lovely, a fantastic singer who clearly loves and knows a lot about the various music genres she performs. She made so much effort to find out what the birthday girl’s favourite songs were and created a fantastic set which was perfect. We all danced and sang along and Vinyl & Velvet was central to making this the most wonderful party we will all remember. "

"Ray (and his back up Jackie) were really great - he arrived early, was flexible on his set times and played brilliant music . In particular he picked up the mood of the audience and played the songs we all enjoyed- very recommended."

"Jonny was just just what I was after for our country wedding- beautiful background music that suited our style and theme perfectly. On another note, he has been a delight to deal with from start to finish. I would highly recommend him and would love to work with him again. Thank you so much Jonny!"

"Unwritten Duo performed at our wedding last weekend, which we struck lucky with as we originally had booked another band but got let down with two weeks to go. We came across Joanne at a wedding fair and when she started singing we knew straight away that Unwritten Duo would be perfect for our wedding. We booked them straight away. The choice of music was perfect for us as well, we gave them a few artists that we liked and everything in between was just us. We had a lot of our guests comment on the band and Joanne's voice. We will definitely be going to see them at their future gigs to keep memories alive. Highly recommend booking them!"

"We hired Megan to play for our 30th anniversary, and I'm so glad that we did - she played beautifully and was able to offer a mix of styles; we had initally asked her to play for 45 minutes but our friends loved her so much that we ended up asking her to play for longer! Thank you, Megan, for giving our anniversary that extra special touch with your wonderful playing."
