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.
