Truly a pleasure to have Sir Dancelot

5 stars - Polychorea are Highly Recommended
booked Polychorea for their Wedding

“It was truly a pleasure to have Polychorea as our ceilidh band at our wedding! They were so easy to work with from initial contact to confirming final details, and they made the night so much fun. We've been asked a couple times about 'highlights,' and my partner and I both agree that the celtic knot was probably our favourite moment - it was incredible to see all the faces of our loved ones whizz...”


The Trio were absolutely phenomenal

5 stars - The Manchester Ceilidh Trio are Highly Recommended
booked The Manchester Ceilidh Trio for their Wedding in Lancashire

“The Manchester Ceilidh Trio MADE our wedding. They brought the atmosphere and brought everyone together. The whole evening after their set was full of mingling between groups that had bonded over remembering their lefts from their rights. They warmed the room and got everyone dancing, with really clear and fun instructions. A huge thank you to all of you.”

5 stars - Last Tango In Harris are Highly Recommended
booked Last Tango In Harris for their Wedding in Edinburgh

“The band were not just delightful to deal with and very accommodating but the quality of their music was spotless - we had professional musicians as wedding guests and they were very complimentary on the band’s performance! Half of the wedding guests were foreign and had never experienced a ceilidh before, they left wanting it exported! The instructions were provided in a fun and easy way to un...”

5 stars - Gypsy Rogues are Highly Recommended
booked Gypsy Rogues for their Wedding in Herefordshire

“My partner and I wanted a relaxed, fun wedding day with a ceilidh in the evening. We got in touch with Alive and shortly afterwards booked the Gypsy Rogues. They were absolutely brilliant! Whilst not everyone joined in (which is always the way) the vast majority did, and every single person that was up and dancing had a big smile on their face. We were all beginners but this didn't matter in the s...”
