St Andrews Dinner Dance at Athens Intercontinental Hotel for the Athens St Andrews Society

" You were a great hit with everyone. People loved you and you could tell from the dance floor that everyone was happy. It was good that you mixed Scottish with other dance music. You were always willing to oblige our every wish and it showed because people were still around at 4.30 and had to be thrown out of the ballroom!!!!!!!! "

Wedding at Culcreuch Castle, Fintry

"Hi Neil
Rob and I wanted to get in touch to say thank you to you all for such a great ceilidh at our evening reception. It was exactly as we wanted it to be and felt like a big party with all our family and friends. So many people have been in touch with us to say they had a great time and it was one of the best ceilidh’s they had been to at a wedding. I was diagnosed with breast cancer a few weeks before the wedding and started chemotherapy just a few days after the wedding so it was really important to us that it was a happy day and we really felt like it was so thanks very much. 
Thanks again Sue
