Photo of Harp - Amelia Tokarska Harp - Amelia Tokarska "Amelia delivered a truly stunning performance at our wedding reception. The harp music created an elegant and emotional atmosphere that our guests are still talking about. She was professional, punctual, and very accommodating with our song requests. Her talent and presence added something genuinely special to the day. I would highly recommend Amelia Tokarska for any event where you want beautiful live music and a memorable experience." 25th May 2026 Martin Novák - Wedding Reception 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." 14th July 2026 James - Wedding Photo of Jennyandthekelts Jennyandthekelts "A devilish rhythm, a galloping melody and a captivating voice" 15th July 2026 Denis Popper music mag - Pop celtic contemporary artist 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" 15th September 2026 Janna & Sidène - Private Wedding Photo of pipe major Nick MacVicar pipe major Nick MacVicar "Nick, you're a scholar and a gentleman.

Thanks again" 29th September 2026 Ciaran & Guilaine - Wedding in Tuscany Photo of Ingrid Magee Funeral Singer London Ingrid Magee Funeral Singer London "Ingrid is a superb singer and made my mothers funeral complete.
