Review Centre: Celtic Groups & Ceilidh Bands

"We hired Blackbeard's Tea Party for ceilidh at our wedding- the groom has been a fan of them for many years, so we were delighted that they offered ceilidh hires. They were the highlight of the day- everyone was so friendly and it was exactly what we wanted. They were very organised and the tunes worked very well for the ceilidh, even if people were beginners. The caller was great and got everybody involved- in fact two of our guests were so impressed they've booked him for their wedding! The band played several sets with the right amount of breaks in between and we enjoyed their performance of some of their tunes in between. Brilliant atmosphere and so much fun- would 100% recommend!"

"I just wanted to thank FF.O.B. Band for last Saturday in Abbotsley. The band were amazing and it was a super evening. Ollie the caller had just the right manner too. We had many tickets sold and lots of participation and fun! Hopefully again next year!"

"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"

"Kip and his band were absolutely amazing. We had an unusual wedding venue and they made it work so that it was just perfect. I was overwhelmed with all the care and attention that they put into the calls and making sure everyone was included from very young to older guests. Anyone who has a wedding really knows that it flies by for the bride and groom but Kip made sure we were called to dance so we also had the opportunity to enjoy the music. We will be hiring these guys again as they were brilliant and fantastic musicians. You made the day so special, we can't thank you enough. Rachel and Christian x"

"We recently hired It's No' Reel Ceilidh Band for our wedding and were extremely pleased. Right from the beginning, communicating with the band was easy and stress free. The band arrived on time and set up without disturbing our reception in the next room. The band played exceptionally and everyone had a wonderful time. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a great band!"

"I finally went along to see G Celtic Folk Rock Band when they played at the Old Printworks in Wakefield, close to where I live. I've known Chris for over thirty years. Knew he played fiddle in several different bands over the years and decided it was high time I made the effort! I wasn't disappointed. I was expecting straight Irish folk music but they have a blend of rock, folk, Irish, Yorkshire ballads. Great music, very tight sound with a nod and a wink to traditional Irish and not so traditional ballads. Great musicians who play well together. I intended staying for a couple of pints but stayed the entire evening. Great show boys! See you next time!"

"Jason and I had always wanted a Ceilidh to feature in our wedding. Ceili Max were absolutely brilliant - really professional, nice people who are incredible musicians. All the guests loved listening to them play and joining in with all the dances. It was perfect and we would have no hesitation in recommending them for events."
