"It's No' Reel performed at our wedding at the Albert Halls in Stirling in November. After hearing such great things about them, we actually changed the date of our wedding to ensure they would be free to play! They didn't disappoint on the day. With a mixture of Scottish, English and international guests we thought we would have some ceilidh followed by a disco, but in the end everyone was having such a good time that we just kept on with the ceilidh. From my seven year old nephew to an octogenarian great-aunt, everyone was up dancing all the time. And once the day was over we had a really fun Go Pro video to watch back. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend It's No' Reel to anyone wanting a memorable evening."

"Hi Helen You have recently played at our wedding. I just wanted to send a quick message to thank you for your amazing performance. Both my partner and I haven’t quite been able to get over how brilliant you guys were. We have had floods of messages from guests, the venue and our external suppliers (DJ, photographers and photo booth) saying how amazing you were, with the photo booth attendant showing me his goosebumps whilst you played! You guys really made the night what it was and we can’t thank you enough! We hope to see you guys playing again soon! Kind regards Liam and Amy"

"The Tommy Aces played at our wedding recently, and we recommend them highly. The communication beforehand was excellent, ensuring they included our favourite songs. They also catered for our guests' requests. Their music, manner and vibe were excellent and everybody loved them, especially us!"

"Ceilidh Spice were great. Thank you very much. We had torrential rain throughout our party but the marquee stayed dry and everyone loved the band and the barn dance."

"I booked Kellys Heroes to play at my 60th birthday party. You were amazing and everyone loved you. Everybody there was talking about how good you were, and they are still talking about it, even now. You were the main feature of the party which people remember! Of course, your excellent local reputation preceded you and that took some living up to - you did so admirably. I was worried that, with such a diverse group of guests, there would be awkward silences but Tony did a sterling job at getting people up on the dance floor and, once they started, they couldn’t stop. Quite a few of my friends commented that they forgot we were all hitting 60 and were dancing like young ‘uns. It says much for your music, though, that the real young ‘uns also joined in and it was a treat to see that younger Irish generation (because about 2/3 of the party were Irish) showing off their traditional dance skills to your music. Your song and tune selection was really excellent. Just the right balance, and lovely to have some songs which were favourites (Billy was completely made up with Carrickfergus) and others which were original compositions. Of course, the standard was – well – absolutely professional. It must be great to have such universal appeal. I can honestly say that your music hit the mark with both young and old; English and Irish – and even the small Greek contingent got up and learned a few dance moves! Your CD is being well-played on Corfu and in Athens now! I noticed a good few of the staff from the bar downstairs snuck in for a sneaky look too. You really made the evening for me and do, please, feel free to use this if you need a testimonial. Looking forward to seeing you soon at one of your gigs. With my very best wishes and thanks again. Linda"

"We saw you a while back at sewerby whilst visiting my daughter and her family. You were absolutely great and even sang happy birthday to my disabled grandson. Would love to hear if you’re coming to Nottingham where I live. Once again great music"

"Black Velvet Band Irish Duo performed at my Mum’s surprise 70th birthday. We loved the performance and didn’t want them to stop! The party was a huge success and the excellent music really helped to create the atmosphere. Thank you very much, guys! "

"I had the best time with the Barn Buskers celebrating my 50th birthday. From the minute I booked them to the moment they had to leave they were brilliant. The youngest guest was 2, the oldest was 85 and everybody said what a fantastic time they had. Knees hurt but cheeks hurt more from all the smiling and laughing. The caller did extraordinarily well keeping us all together. Note to self.....must learn left from right 😂😂 If you are looking for some talented musicians with a flare to keep the party going, at a pace that suits your needs, then look no further. I believe a friend has booked them for their wedding next year, and I for one can't wait to do it all again 🩷 Huge thank you to Judy and co. Truly a most memorable day 🩷🥳"

"Hi Aly. Apologies for the delay in writing to you. I wanted to say a huge thank you to you and the other guys in the band for providing such a great evening of entertainment and dancing. Everybody thought the band was amazing and the way you managed to get a somewhat reluctant crowd to dance and enjoy it so much is admirable. Ali so enjoyed the evening and especially the musical contribution from you guys, thank you so much. Hope you've had a good week and that I get to hear you play somewhere else again soon. Best wishes, Phil "

"Black Velvet Band Ceilidh Trio were a fantastic edition to our Burns Night celebrations. From communicating before the event to the actual day, the group were professional and easy to reach. They also went above and beyond what their initial brief by ed by agreeing to toast the haggis – which was met with cheers - and taking suggestions from the crowd for different dances. By the end of the night they felt like part of the ROSL family."

"We had a fantastic time with the Blue Jewel Ceilidh band, brilliant music. We all had such fun, everyone could join in as nothing was too complicated. The caller was very good and hit the right note, very professional and special thanks to them all for making every effort to get to the venue after the snow drifts and icy roads caused major problems for many. It helped to make our daughter’s Wedding a very special day. "

"We can't thank Jean enough her playing such beautiful music and making our day even more special. Many of our guests commented on how amazing the music was and it really fitted perfectly with our wedding. We asked Jean to play a song that was not on her usual repertoire but she was enthusiastic about playing it and played it perfectly on the day. We would happily recommend Jean to others looking for a harpist for a special occasion. "

"Quick note to say a massive thank you for Saturday night in Northleach. After a slow start - I think there was a mixture of nervousness and a warm evening outside! - everyone had a fantastic time. I've had so many people saying that it's either been ages since they went to a Ceilidh or had never ceilidh'd before and they loved it. Lots of people passing on thanks to you and the band too - excellent stuff as usual. The caller (who's name I didn't catch) has been singled out for her patience! Another Ceilidh is definitely on the cards, though perhaps this time in the winter - I don't think I've sweated that much for years!"
