5/5 from 213 reviews
Photo of Annette Homann Violinist Annette Homann Violinist "I hired Annette to play a few songs for a public marriage proposal. She was great! Not only does she play beautifully, but she was extremely flexible as we worked through the plan—even with the winter weather! I really appreciated how she took a personal interest in the proposal and was genuinely excited for us. It made the whole event unique and special. I HIGHLY recommend Annette for marriage proposals and any other reason someone wants to bring some beautiful violin music into their lives!" Based in Brussels, Brussels Capital, Belgium (58 miles from Lille) Jeff Lee - Marriage Proposal Photo of Triskelt Triskelt "It was such an absolute pleasure to have you all be such an amazing part of our special day. The guests loved you (and so do we, still). You've been amazing from start to finish, from planning to the big day itself! We highly recommend Triskelt! 10/10" Based in Antwerp, Flanders, Belgium (71 miles from Lille) 15th September 2026 Janna & Sidène - Private Wedding Photo of Jennyandthekelts Jennyandthekelts "A devilish rhythm, a galloping melody and a captivating voice" Based in Paris, Île-de-France Region (127 miles from Lille) 15th July 2026 Denis Popper music mag - Pop celtic contemporary artist Photo of Owen's Friends Owen's Friends "Overall we had a very good experience in difficult conditions. The caller handled inexperienced participants, hot weather, and minor technical challenges to deliver an enjoyable experience for all, including child-friendly dances. I recommend this band." Based in Paris, Île-de-France Region (127 miles from Lille) 14th July 2026 James - Wedding Photo of Ingrid Magee Funeral Singer London Ingrid Magee Funeral Singer London "Ingrid, a quick note on behalf of the family. Thank you for the amazing vocals last Wednesday. When Mum and I were discussing her wishes; it was everything we hoped. I sobbed the whole way through Ave Maria. Your performance was truly beautiful. On a personal note, thank you for navigating some tricky times. Knowing you were taking care gave me confidence to relax. Wishing you and yours a lovely Christmas x" Based in Bexley, England, United Kingdom (138 miles from Lille) 2nd October 2026 Denise P - Funeral Photo of Dorothy Harpist Dorothy Harpist "TLDR: Music is good, communications is on point, on the day it’s all under control and beautifully executed, everyone enjoyed, stress free throughout, we are so happy. —— We are so blessed to have Dorothy playing harp at our wedding! Totally recommend her as she excels every single steps throughout. She’s so talented, professional and with lots of personal touch that we deeply appreciate. Her music is just amazing. All the guests complimented her and enjoyed all the songs. She’s able to learn extra new songs depending on the packages, and those ones we asked her to learn were beyond the world. Made so many of us cry as the music really complemented the moment perfectly. Her website and wedding information book was clear and easy to navigate. From the first email communications, Dorothy showed great dedication, care and professionalism in catering to our big day. She gave super clear communications and instructions, was very involved throughout but also gives us (the couple) lots of freedom to design the process (music lineups, songs arrangement, where to set up the harp, etc) to make it how we want it. We’ve dealt with so many suppliers along the way as we plan for the wedding, and although they are all great, Dorothy is honestly the best and really makes us feel so safe and happy throughout and even afterwards.
