Please pass on our very grateful thanks to you and your brilliant
band. The whole evening was a tremendous success mainly thanks to the
wonderful show put on by Fendragon. Everyone at the wedding said how
much they enjoyed the whole experience, and it was the best evening
they had spent in many a year!
I will certainly be recommending you to anyone who asks for a fantastic evening's entertainment.

Wedding near Bury St Edmunds, August 2015
All of our friends and family had the most wonderful time and people
are raving
about the music and dancing - they want a ceilidh at every future
event they can
think of! It was brilliant to see them all so full of joy whirling
each other
around, even the most unlikely of aunts and uncles...all I can say
is we will be
recommending you to everyone, and are so glad so were able to be a
part of the
day. Relaxed, informal and fun is what we were hoping for and we are
tremendously happy with what we achieved.

Wedding, Hitchin, June 2013
Thank you so much for such a brilliant evening for Katy and John's
wedding. So many people said it was the best fun ever. We all danced
from aged 2-89 yrs and it was a fantastic way for the various
families and friends to mix and get to know each other. I enjoyed the
beautiful musicality of the group, and the 'calling' was clear,
non-judgemental[!] and very positively encouraging. Excellent!

great to listen to as well."
Bob Ridout, caller and folk dancer for over 30 years
Thank you so much for the ceilidh at our wedding...
I hope you could tell how much we were enjoying the dancing - even
if we weren't always very proficient!
So many people complimented us on your music and said how much fun they had trying to master the steps.
Please pass on our thanks for a wonderful evening to the rest of the band.

"I had quite a few compliments about the band - always a good
thing!"
Penny Allen, Meltdown Ceilidhs, Sussex"
Thank you so much for the fantastic ceilidh at
our wedding earlier
this month - it was brilliant, and so many of our guests commented
on what a
great idea it was to
have a ceidilih (even those that had never been to one before!).
Those that had been to ceilidhs
before thought the way the caller explained the dances so simply
and then quickly got
everyone started dancing worked really well, and that the music
was particularly good. It was such a
great way of getting everybody up and dancing, and we thought both
the band and the caller were
great.
Wedding in May 2008
The whole idea was a
complete hit with our guests... Looking back it's hard to
imagine how we would have got all our friends and families dancing
together and enjoying it so much if it wasn't for the musicians and
brilliant (adaptable to our younger guests!) caller.
Some friends of ours who came in the evening have also decided on a ceilidh for their wedding... the ceilidh was really the highlight of the day for both of us and something we will never forget, thank you so much to all of you for a fabulous evening.
Another wedding, September 2007
Thanks for a great performance - exactly what we wanted - and well
managed to suit other passing priorities like eating - and to suit
the small people!
After an open-air afternoon birthday party, 2007
"Lovely music!"
Theo Thomas, Hitchin Unicorn ceilidhs
