“Best Before Midnight were truly the icing on the cake for my wedding day. Thank you so much for making it a fantastic evening. Everyone enjoyed it so much and I couldn’t believe how many people were dancing to the Ceilidh music. Gillian was fantastic at teaching us the dances. The band also had a real talent for judging which songs to play throughout the evening to create the right amount of dancing, followed by some more mellow tunes to let people get their breath back! I really didn’t want it to end. Absolutely brilliant, I would recommend them to anyone. Thank you.”
Louis and Katie, Forter Castle, Scotland

“Fantastic band who are not only skilled musicians but who also possess a natural flare for getting even the most reluctant of audience members onto the dance floor and ensuring that every one has a great night. Look forward to inviting them back to perform at our burns supper again next year…”
Stacy, Burn’s Night, Blythswood Square Hotel, Glasgow

We got back from Honeymoon late on Sunday night and had a fantastic time. I wanted to thank you so much for your music display at our wedding which is now some 5 weeks ago! You were brilliant! I had a number of people comment on the music saying how fabulous it was. Thank you so much for making the music side of things easy for me to organise! Absolutely brilliant!
Fiona and Michiel, Wedding, Merchants Hall, Edinburgh

“Thank you very much for such fantastic music and energy. See you next year!”
Katie and Ed, Dance Summer School, Bridge of Earn

“A great band and a great night – they genuinely seemed to enjoy playing and getting the room on the dance floor. Been at a couple of Ceilidhs where they were playing and they were both grand – would definitely go to one of their Ceilidhs again.”
Ewan, Burn’s Night, Menzie’s Hotel, Glasgow

“Hello I saw you last weekend Saturday night in Steenvorde (France). I just write you to say it was a very great time and we really loved your band with dancers. Congratulations all of you and thanks for that great time you gave to us.”
Franck, Celtic Festival, Steenvoorde, France
