Having enjoyed Bathsheba's Wedding at a party a few years ago, they were the natural choice when we decided that we wanted our 60th birthday bash to involve a ceilidh. We revolved our party date around their availability and are really glad we did - the party went with a swing and we're sure any wedding that involved them would too!

Hi Chris and Pat
Thank you for your review. It was kind of you to take the time and thank you also for a great party. We really enjoyed ourselves playing for you and your very lively guests and it was lovely to be back at the Oxford Golf Club again.
The supper was delicious and we all thank you very much for including us in arrangements. I hope it's not too long before we meet again. [Less]-
We has this fantastic band play at our fundraising barn dance, they were the perfect choice and helped us to raise a staggering £3,000.00. They were very helpful in the run up to our event and on the night the music, band and caller were fantastic getting everyone up and dancing. Everyone said how much they enjoyed the night. We would not hesitate in recommending them for any event. Massive thanks to Paul and the band.

Best wishes to all at New Life and thank you for taking the time and trouble to review our band. It was a great pleasure working with you all right from the moment we came to view your spectacular venue until the evening of your event. It is so rewarding to see a great bunch of people enjoying a wonderful evening together to our music. Thank you for a very enjoyable experience. We were so pleased to hear that you had raised such a large sum for your charity. Well done those organizers.

Bathsheba's are the ceilidh band to get your party started! We were absolutely delighted to have had Bathsheba's play at our wedding reception; it was fun, lively, energetic and all our guests were up dancing.
From the moment we first made contact with Paul he was friendly, helpful and very informative. We knew that we wanted a ceilidh band for our wedding reception but had not yet booked a venue - Paul was very knowledgable and was able to advise which local venues would have sufficient space. We found this invaluable. They always replied to emails promptly and we found them very approachable and personable.
We had a fantastic evening and have had many positive comments back from guests about how much fun it was. It is a great alternative to get your guests dancing compared to a traditional wedding disco - the dance floor was full from start to finish! The band were able to accommodate for a range of ages and abilities which really helped some of the older family members. We did a grand exit by doing a 'strip-the-willow' dance, giving us a chance to say goodbye to all our guests. Overall an amazing evening and experience, thank you Bathsheba's!

Dear Kirtsy & Jack
Thank you for posting your review. We so enjoyed your wedding evening and it was great to see all your guests joining in with such enthusiasm. Your suggestion to use the final strip the-willow as the opportunity to say a personal thank you and farewell to each and every one of your guests was inspired. We may have to nick that idea off you for future events! It was lovely meeting and working with you from concept to the final big event and it was such great fun. Thank you very much and our very good wishes for your future together.

Bathsheba's Wedding were the perfect choice of music for our barn wedding. They were extremely helpful in the run up to the event and easy to communicate with. On the day their music and calling were superb and even the most hesitant novice dancer was tempted onto the floor. Guests danced throughout the evening and have since commented on how much fun it was. We were absolutely delighted with the lovely atmosphere it created and would recommend them unreservedly.

Hi Emma
Thank you so much for taking the time to write a lovely review. We very much appreciate it. If I may say so you followed the golden rule for a successful party. You selected the guests who, right from the start,were determined to get stuck in and have a great time! We had a fabulous time playing for you all. Thank you very much.

I am delighted to have approached Bathsheba’s Wedding Band to play at my event! The band were absolutely fantastic and incredibly talented at engaging the guests in ceilidh dancing. Paul and his team made the whole process straightforward and easy; from his very prompt response to my initial query, to finding our out-of-the-way-venue on the night. The dance floor was full for the whole evening, testimony to the band’s fabulous music and Diane’s ability to engage with the guests and explain the steps of each dance. No mean feat with an English - and slightly inebriated - audience! A talented, friendly and unique band who will transform your evening into something truly magical.

We cannot rate these guys highly enough. One of the best bands I've had the pleasure of working with.
The pressure was on playing for a family of musicians and they were amazing throughout the night. They were so amazingly accommodating a room of complete novices were all up and dancing at one point or another. The traditional men and women pairs were soon thrown out the window and the caller embraced the chaos with extreme professionalism. I highlight for us was her adapting the dances for our little flower girl who was too tiny to form a bridge!
I would not hesitate to book these lovely, friendly and fun guys again.
11/10!!

A smashing evening and thank you so much. Happy 2016!

My daughter Bex found and booked Bathsheba's wedding for her special day but left the rest to me. Professionals from start to finish, The band were brilliant on the night, with even confirmed non-dancers getting up and having so much fun on the dance floor. From the youngest to the oldest, everyone had the best evening. It was just what Bex had wanted - perfect!

Having heard great things about Bathsheba's Wedding Ceilidh Band, we pretty much set our wedding date around the bands availability. They absolutely made our wedding reception. The band were very professional, friendly and accommodating. We were a fairly large crowd of novice ceilidh dancers and they managed us all beautifully. The band play very well together, one of the best I've heard, and Diane pitched her calling just right. Everybody was able to join in and had a great time. If you are looking for a ceilidh band, then look no further and book Bathsheba. We can't recommend them enough, thanks Bathsheba!

Bathsheba's Wedding were an absolute gem to have at our wedding and we couldn't have been more pleased. The playing/ceilidh was fantastic, of course and they really got us involved and dancing happily - from my 5-yr old daughter to friends from Japan whose first language isn't English of course. What's more, they are also lovely people and I personally enjoyed interacting with the band and talking about their music. All our guests thought it was a great night: it was! A wonderful evening to remember.
