5 stars - Gypsy Rogues are Highly Recommended
booked Gypsy Rogues for their wedding in Merseyside February 2026

“The band were brilliant, starting off they kindly supported one of our guests on guitar before orchestrating a chaotic but enjoyable ceilidh and playing some great songs between. The DJ set for the final 2 hours was perfect with great choices of songs.”

Everyone was saying how brilliant the band was and how we need to get you back next year and make this a yearly thing. I can’t thank you all enough for getting everyone on the dance floor and for making it so much fun. We all had the best night. I just need to work out how to fit another 20 people...”


The band were brilliant

5 stars - Ceilidh Cool are Highly Recommended
booked Ceilidh Cool for their party January 2026

“Thank you so much for your input and it was lovely meeting you in person. The band were brilliant although I think my guests were all a little sozzled so by the time the second set kicked off they were all worn out, the guys were so kind as the electrics were not working when they arrived but they never made me stress they just cracked on accordingly. Hope they enjoyed the party as much as me.”


Memories for a lifetime!

The Dancing Ceilidh Trio were the best decision for our Wedding Reception!

5 stars - The Dancing Ceilidh Trio are Highly Recommended
booked The Dancing Ceilidh Trio for their wedding in North Yorkshire October 2025

“We booked the Dancing Ceilidh Trio for our Wedding reception and it was hands down the best decision. Garry was fantastic on the run up, being very helpful and responding to any questions we had, and the night of the Wedding was beyond words. All of our guests absolutely loved it and kept commenting on how it was one of the most enjoyable Weddings they’ve been to. We were all shattered afterwards,...”
