"As 1st time attendees, we had a super fun time! The caller gave clear instructions and several of the club members (gentlemen in kilts) provided hands on guidance. Music was great!!! Thanks for a memorable evening. "

"What can we say?! You guys were fantastic, we had so much fun as did our guests who have not stopped with the compliments since. It was our first ceilidh dance like many of our guests but it mattered not at all, Kip was brilliant at calling the moves and getting everyone up on their feet having a go and managing to get us holding it together which is no mean feat when it comes to rhythmically challenged mates!! And for those of my guests who have been to many a ceilidh dance, they too couldn't praise the band highly enough and all said it was the best they have been to. One very happy bride :-) I'd recommend Blue Jewel to anybody wanting to inject some fun into any party - the perfect ice breaking, crowd pleasing entertainment, everyone can join in and have a blast, no rhythm required!!

"The playing is very good and nothing here is standard fare. Crossing The Ocean is sure to please anyone looking for an album of Irish music that sounds a little different but is still firmly rooted in the tradition."

"Thank you for the fantastic ceilidh Hi Mick and team, We just wanted to say a huge thank you for the fantastic ceilidh at our wedding (8th June 2019 Saturday Layer Marney Tower, Layer Marney, Colchester, Essex, CO5 9US). It really made the evening so special and everyone had such a wonderful time. We have so many happy memories of everyone dancing and the great music. I hope you got enough food and cake in the end - I think the caterers were taken by surprise at how fast it all went! Thank you for making our day so very special! All the best" Felicity and Antony Milne 10th June 2019"

"Blue Jewel were absolutely fantastic at our April wedding! Many of our guests had never been to a Ceilidh before, but Steve and the band made sure that everyone got involved and had a brilliant time - I think everyone made it to the dance floor at some point, and many never left! The band were flexible with timings on the night and professional throughout, making for a truly enjoyable evening. We are so pleased that we booked you, and highly recommend you to anyone considering a Ceilidh. Thanks again, Hannah and Joe x"

"'Absolutely incredible! The band's musicianship was top-notch, and their playlist was the perfect mix of classic and modern Country hits. They kept everyone entertained and dancing all night long. Five stars!" Louise - Wedding"
