Review Centre: Celtic Groups & Ceilidh Bands

"Blue Jewel Ceilidh band were absolutely amazing at our wedding, I cannot rate them highly enough. They were so understanding about us running slightly behind schedule. The music was incredible and got everyone dancing. Kip was also a great caller - really easy instructions to follow and very funny. I even asked for a Welsh tune to be played and one band member actually composed one himself and performed it on the day. I'm unbelievably impressed with this band, and if you're thinking about booking, I'd highly recommend."

"Just to let you know that our celebration on 14th April with Patrick playing the pipes went just as planned, an informal family gathering with Patrick playing – everyone had a great time. Thank you for your assistance and for making all arrangements so very easy. "

"Wraggle Taggle were absolutely super (23rd August 2025 Saturday The St, Shalford, Guildford, Surrey, GU4) – completely professional, brilliant musicians, wonderful at getting the party going, easy-going and flexible. Could not recommend them highly enough. Thank you Mick and co. for a wonderful evening! Toby Donegan-Cross 4th September 2025"

"Philip Thank you so much for the music you guys played at our Wedding. Everybody loved it and the dancing was so much fun. Even those who were doing it for the first time found it fun, thanks to the dancing being called. For a three-piece [Norloch Ceilidh Trio] you guys were powerful and solid. Thank you for being a big part of the success of our wedding day."

"The barn dance in Barnham turned out to be an absolute hoot. I'm struggling to imagine a more excellent outing."

"Rejigged at my 30th birthday party Thank you so much to Rejigged band who absolutely made our birthday party come to life - everyone left with beaming smiles on their faces. The caller had great energy and encouraged us all out onto the dance floor with good humour, even the shy ones got up and danced! The band were really organised and communicated well before the event. We had such fun stomping around the hall that we actually damaged the ceiling of the room below! Great range of tunes and dances, very jolly all round. Would recommend! Florence 14th March 2020 Chichester Hall Sandgate. "

"Heard 'The Shooglers' play at a fantastic wedding I was photographing, well I was so desperate to join in the dancing - truly fantastic music ;-) I love the one you did with the mix of Pink Floyd - Another Brick in the Wall - was amazing! Tapping my foot and itching to dance - best music at a wedding I’ve ever heard!"

"Dear Fiddlestix Just a little note to say thank you for all the music-making on Saturday – I have had some lovely feedback and people really enjoyed themselves. I was a bit worried that some of my guests would run for the hills, once they realised that they were in for Scottish country dancing, but actually they had a ball, as did I. You did a great job! Kind regards Sarah"

"The band was great and they tailored the music to suit our group and encouraged people to join in. Lovely manner and professional. Very experienced caller and musicians. Enthusiastic comments and praise from all our guests. Several potential enquiries regarding bookings will hopefully follow. We couldn't have wished for a better way to celebrate our special anniversary. Every thanks to the Black Velvet Ceilidh Band. "
