booked The Whiskey Priests for their Wedding in Merseyside

“The Whiskey Priests were excellent and the guests absolutely loved them. Amazing musicians who got everyone dancing. Being a Liverpool wedding, the audience know their Irish music and everyone was full of praise for the energy and musicianship. We requested Nick Lowe's 'Peace, Love and Understanding' for our first dance and it was perfect. Not a dry high in the house. Absolute professionals. Highly recommended.”


Fantastic Irish music - All guests loved them

5 stars - The Whiskey Priests are Highly Recommended
booked The Whiskey Priests for their Wedding in Cheshire

“Blew us and the wedding guests away with their Irish music, fantastic throughout, made our evening wedding reception so much better with their music. They had to adapt their set as the large hall we were in didn't have the best acoustics for the amps so instead, they went full acoustic which gave it a much more personal feel. Interacted with the crowd with anecdotes and with the people dancing, and created such a good experience for all the guests. ”
