Need entertainment at your wedding?

⚠️WARNING⚠️

If you want a serious, formal or straight-laced affair,

then a ceilidh probably isn’t for you.

If you want unique entertainment that’s fun, social and inclusive🌈

You are on the right page.

If you want to skip to the good part, here are the links. Shouldn’t it all be this easy?

Check my prices and packages. These include a list of bespoke unique additions for your big day such as a Bagpiper, Highland dancers, novelty hats and a self-service glitter bar. There are some other additions on the list so worth checking out and asking about them during your ceilidh chat.

These prices don’t get bumped up the moment you mention the big W word either😉 The big W is Wedding btw, not Wayzgoose, as in St Bartholomew’s Day (24th August). Actually, I don’t charge any extra for that particular party either🎉

Still not sure❓

Are you looking to book a fantastic ceilidh experience for your wedding that will connect with those who have never done it before as well as your guests that are Ceilidh Ninjas😍?

• You’re price-conscious but not cheap. You don’t want to be ripped off either ££££.
• You want to make sure you get value for money.
• You want a ceilidh that will ensure the dance floor is packed because everyone deserves a wedding that rocks.
• You expect the perfect mix of laid-back and encouraging for your evening celebration.
• You want the dancefloor full🎵?
• You deserve a lively atmosphere which is tailored to your guests and will engage with them all.
• You want the evening hosted professionally, so you don’t have to think about it and can enjoy socialising with your guests.
• You’re feeling overwhelmed and not sure what would work? You want some ideas!
• You want suggestions on how the running order should go, leaving nothing to chance.

You might be Scottish, have some Scottish heritage or have been to a ceilidh at a wedding previously. Perhaps you attended a ceilidh at a University.

It could just be that you’re not a Disco Diva and the thought of that sort of wedding just makes you cringe😧!

• You want entertainment that will involve all your guests, even those with 2 left feet.
• You cringe at the thought of a first dance and want something different.
• You want to feel confident with your wedding suppliers- basically, have the evening planned for you.

Don’t you have enough organising to do already🤯?

Most of your friends and family will never have been to a ceilidh, so it needs to be the perfect mix of fun yet classy🎶.

Do these statements resonate with you?

Hi, I’m Schuggie and I call multi-award-winning🏆 authentic Scottish-style ceilidhs (well I am from Inverness) with a contemporary twist. Based in the East Midlands (so the Derby/Nottingham area) I cover the whole of the UK including the Channel Islands🗺️.

I’ve been a wedding supplier since 2012, which means over 120 wedding ceilidhs in venues ranging from cosy wee village halls and private mansions right the way through to grand Tipi’s and Marquees, as well as Newark, Warwick and Nottingham Castles. I’ve even hosted a ceilidh at London Zoo🦁.

My packages and unique additions are flexible for any type of venue and when the weather allows, unforgettable for outdoor weddings.

My wedding packages are also LGBTQ+ Wedding Services accredited🌈.

What does the call bit mean exactly?

Well, I’m a bit like an MC/Toastmaster and conductor all rolled into one🎤. I gently encourage your guests up onto the floor- walk them through the dances and then call out what they need to do as they dance- so they don’t need to know what they’re doing. Actually, mistakes are half the fun of ceilidh dances.

This is breaking the ice between the types of guests that might not know each other such as different sides of your families, your friends and even work colleagues. Sounds a bit like Tinder, but it’s much more fun than that.

As the Caller, I also make sure your evening runs on time, so breaks for food, sparklers and evening photos if you are having them.

If you are leaving early; I round up the troops to bid you a fond farewell 👋and I make you’re your guests know it’s last orders at the bar when that time comes🥂.

All this means that you get to relax, socialise and enjoy the evening celebrations. Don’t just take my word for it, you can read my testimonials on Google My Business and @WeddingCeilidhs on Facebook. If you need more social proof, why not follow me on Insta, Facebook and even TikTok.

You can see me in action- either live in person around the Nottingham area or on my YouTube channel.

Whilst a lot of my couples find a chat about their wedding ceilidh useful before going ahead and booking (you can book that chat here).

Most of my couples go ahead and reserve the date then we sort out the chat bit.

Those couples find these three links most helpful.
