You, and the band really made my party.

A fantastic band for a wedding
Harley C booked Last Dram for their Wedding in Angus • July 2025
“Alastair was a great caller and had all the time for our overseas guests that had never seen a ceilidh before. The band was amazing and we had so many guests come up to us afterwards with compliments about them.”
Such a high energy, friendly ceilidh performance
Joshua L booked Sandpiper for their Wedding in North Yorkshire • July 2025
“I couldn't think of a better way to get our guests over their food stupor than Sandpiper. They hit the first song with such high energy and kept it going for 2 hours. Patient with our less coordinated guests and charming throughout. The pictures from this section of the wedding are epic.”
Petition to make ceilidhs compulsory at all weddings
Jessica C booked Rabscallion for their Wedding in Derbyshire • July 2025

Alice K booked Cahoot Ceilidh Band for their Wedding in West Yorkshire • July 2025
“We had the absolute pleasure of having Cahoot Ceilidh Band play at our wedding, and we truly can’t recommend them highly enough.

From the very first tune, they had everyone up and dancing—young and old, ceilidh pros and complete beginners! The caller was ...”
Lydia F booked The Manchester Ceilidh Trio for their Wedding in Merseyside • May 2025
“The Ceilidh Trio were such a fantastic way to start our wedding evening. They were incredibly patient with our useless guests who struggled to form a circle on multiple occasions, and made the wedding so much fun. So many of our guests have commented on how much they enjoyed the Ceilidh. Thank you so much!”

“David and his band Gypsy Rogues were perfect for my mums 80th birthday party. From initial booking up until the night of the party all communication was great and the band were really flexible and took care of all the music.
