What could
be more fun than a ceilidh. The whirling and birling of the dancing, young mixing
with old and lots of help with the steps for dances such as The Gay Gordons, The
Dashing White Sergeant and Strip the Willow. A well-organised ceilidh can sum
up the very best of Scottish hospitality if the musicians are carefully chosen.
Entertainers Agency bands are some of the best in Scotland. They play traditional
instruments and will make all the dances easy and fun.
Four hours
of ceilidh can be pretty exhausting, so a great idea is to combine it with a disco.
So many of us have had our evenings ruined by a bad disco. Entertainers Agency
has carefully chosen the best discos, and we guarantee in our contracts that the
DJ will be smartly dressed and will play the music at a comfortable volume. Best
of all, you get to choose all the music! So with a band and a disco set up side-by-side,
you can alternate the music: no-one gets too tired and there is music for everyone
for the entire evening. Speak to us for further details on how well this works.
As a finale
to the evening, Entertainers Agency can have an 18 piece pipe band march up and
perform a short 20 minute ceremony known as Beating the Retreat exclusively for
you. It has been known to have grown men in tears. Just imagine - your guests
assemble at the front entrance of your chosen venue towards the end of evening,
on the pretext of having one last photograph. Out of the darkness, the faint hum
of the pipes and rhythmic beat of the drums. As it gets closer, they suddenly
emerge from the darkness and the full ceremony and spectacle unfolds. The Pipe
Major will toast the bride and groom. It is a great way to thank the guests or
for a bride to surprise her husband.
