We hired them to perform a ceilidh at my wedding with around 110 guests. They were absolutely incredible and this was one of the most fun experiences I've ever had. This was a Scottish/Canadian wedding so a lot of people did not know the steps to each song. Fiona was the caller and did an amazing job giving everyone instructions. The music was incredible and myself, my husband and our guests had so much fun. We still have friends bringing up the ceilidh at our wedding today!

I can’t say enough wonderful things about this Celtic duo. We hired them for our wedding to perform while guests arrived and during our ceremony. They were very professional and took the time to meet with us before the wedding. We were able to pick and hear the songs we liked which helped us feel extremely confident that our ceremony would go smoothly. During the day they arrived on time, were again very professional and sounded absolutely perfect. The mood was set by their beautiful performance and I cannot thank them enough for being apart of our wedding day. I will recommend them to anyone having a wedding or celebration!
