"Excellent band, very engaging and fantastic players. Everyone was up and dancing through the ceilidh and DJ, a great time had all round. Would gladly hire them again!"
"We (and all of our guests) thoroughly enjoyed the Circassian Ceilidh Band’s performance at our wedding! Everyone enjoyed getting out on the dance floor and the band did a great job of calling the ceilidhs. The majority of our guests had never been to a ceilidh before, but with the band’s help, people danced right up until the last song. They are professional and communicative - great to deal with throughout the booking process. I would recommend them for anyone looking for a ceilidh band!"
"Just had our wedding on Wednesday and Circassian Ceilidh Band were amazing! We had loads of guests who had never done ceilidh dancing before and they loved it. We had ceilidh, covers and DJ set and every part was a massive hit with the dance floor full for the entire time. Would highly recommend!"
"Robbie and his band flew to Brittany for our wedding in August and we couldn’t have had a better experience. Truly lovely guys, amazing Ceilidh players and leaders, we had a million compliments on them from all of our guests and they made the day extremely special. Thank you ever so much, all of you!"
