5 stars - The Manchester Ceilidh Trio are Highly Recommended
booked The Manchester Ceilidh Trio for their Wedding in Lancashire September 2024

“We booked the tartan trio for our wedding and they were absolutely fantastic. Everyone was dancing and the large room was totally filled! Even the “super cool” teenagers, who had previously said they would never dance, joined in for every song. The caller Richard and his band were excellent. Really clear instructions for the merry party goers, and he included a slower number so that my 86 yo g...”

They were absolutely brilliant

5 stars - Footfall are Highly Recommended
booked Footfall for their Wedding June 2024

“The Rosevilles performed at our wedding this June and they were absolutely brilliant. We had a marquee wedding, they came to the site in the week before to assess the set-up and were very friendly and professional. The ceilidh on the day was excellent fun and they did the dances that I requested. Our schedule on the day ended up running very late but they were extremely flexible which was really h...”


The highlight of our wedding day

5 stars - Footfall are Highly Recommended
booked Footfall for their Wedding June 2024

“We had an absolutely fantastic time on our wedding day with you being there being a highlight of the day. A wonderful day with the musicians playing on the lawn in the sunshine with most of us barefoot, the music and the dances were brilliant and alot of fun. It was a good ice breaker too to get everyone warmed up and dancing together early in the day. We really enjoyed it. If we put on another ...”

booked Rakish Paddy for their event in London June 2024

They put a lot of effort into liaising with me beforehand and were very good at responding to my requests, including special songs I wanted in relation to my Dad's life. They arrived promptly, were personable and friendly with all our guests, made my Dad feel like a million dollars and most of all...”
