Latest reviews of our Wedding Ceilidh Bands in Bangor

Staffin Island Ceilidh Band
Full starFull starFull starFull starFull star

"I would just like to say a huge thankyou to yourself and the Staffin Island Ceilidh Band who played for us on Saturday night. They were amazing and everyone I spoke to thoroughly enjoyed themselves, and probably danced more than usual. Even the manager of the venue we hired said they were the best band he'd ever had playing there, and he may look to book you for some of their own functions in future. They got everyone dancing, and managed to keep most of us doing the correct moves 😀. They were such a big hit, and it made our special night go down an absolute storm. Thankyou once again. "

The Jacobites
Full starFull starFull starFull starFull star

"My husband and I had the pleasure of having the Jacobites perform for our Scotland wedding at Killochan Castle, and let me tell you, they were unbelievably fantastic, fun, and talented. They got everyone up and dancing like crazy! They were kind and patient and took time to teach everyone how to Ceilidh dance (and yes, it took a while..) Their communication was quick and straightforward which allowed everything to flow seamlessly. I wish I could hire them to come and play in the states! Thank you all again for being such a fun addition to our big day! E&C"
