"Black Velvet Band Ceilidh Trio provided a brilliant ceilidh for our wedding celebrations at Goldney Hall, Bristol on 12 August 2017. What a fantastic evening! The band entertained our hardy Scottish guests with well-known Scottish dances but it was most enjoyable to see English friends and family ceilidh dancing for the first time and loving it! The dances were called very clearly and were quite ambitious so there was much hilarity. It was infectious fun and everyone got involved. (The dance floor was almost too small!) Mike and the band were extremely accommodating, professional and enthusiastic. The band has a huge repertoire and organised the evening flawlessly, from our first dance (Gay Gordons) to the throwing of the bouquet and the final Circassian Circle. Highly recommended. Thanks again for a fantastic evening of fun!"

"On behalf of everyone who attended last night's Ceilidh, I want to say thanks to you for the great entertainment and lessons in moves. We all had a very good time and for me helped overcome the loss in the World Cup, when I got home !"

"We wouldn`t change a single minute of our wedding day. Whilst its difficult to pick out a highlight, you guys did an absolutely sensational job in the evening. Everyone has been raving about how good you were. We were so impressed. You did everything we asked for, and did it perfectly. You were the ultimate professionals. Not only did you fill the dance floor but you filled the whole room right up to the bar for the whole night! We really can`t thank you enough and hope you guys also enjoyed playing at our wedding."

"The Northern Ceilidh band performed at our wedding reception and were fabulous! Jon and the others are extremely talented musicians, and Joyce an experienced and engaging caller. The dance floor for the ceilidh was full from start to finish, and our guests had so much fun. Prior to the wedding, Jon and Joyce went to the trouble of videoing a sequence for us so that we could practice a ‘first dance’ with friends. Nothing was too much trouble for them. Wonderful people, wonderful musicians and a wonderful night of dancing. If you’re looking for a fantastic Ceilidh band, look no further! "

"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."

"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 🩷🥳"

"The barn dance in Barnham turned out to be an absolute hoot. I'm struggling to imagine a more excellent outing."

"We booked the Willow Tree Barn Dance Band for our wedding anniversary all our guests and ourselves really enjoyed the music, vibe of the band. We requested that we wanted our guests to able to dance, and Mick was absolutely brilliant in organising the routines with clear instructions. We would give them 10 out of 10 and would highly recommended them. "

"We just wanted to say thank you to yourself and the band for being part of our big day. You were absolutely superb from start to finish and as you could probably tell from all the dancing, our guests absolutely loved all your music too! You got people up there dancing who I've never seen on a dance floor before. We've had nothing but compliments about what a great idea it was to have you perform at the wedding. Thank you again, we will never forget it! Kind Regards Rob & Jade Clarke "

"I would like to express my utmost appreciation to you and your musicians for the effort you put into the Wardroom Summer Ball last Friday. The band's performance was truly first class and was the highlight of the evening's entertainment."

"Dear Charlotte, we had such a lovely time. I was also very impressed by the kids. I can't believe how much they joined in! My kids had said they definitely were NOT going to dance but when they saw all the adults having so much fun, they had a go and then were hooked. Thank you so much for your patience!"
