• My summer campers adored these performers, and I believe the performers enjoyed the experience as well. The interaction was wonderful, and I will certainly invite them back next year. -- Allyn L, Camp Springs, MD, 7/12/2010
• Terrific experience. The muscians were wonderful. The process was painless. -- Kathleen H, Phoenix, MD, 3/12/2011
• The group was fabulous and were a real Irish "blessing" for our event -- Megan N, Washington, DC, 9/10/2011
• I hired Celtic Music For Your Wedding to play during cocktail hour, preceding my wedding reception. Everyone LOVED them! Elise was incredibly easy to work with before the event and always responded to my emails quickly. The group's traditional Irish music talents were truly appreciated by my entire extended (and very large Irish-American) family. I told Elise that they were free to play any requests from the guests. This went over so well with my family, in particular my godfather, who made a point to tell me how thrilled he was that they knew and played some of his requests! They were professional, accommodating and very talented. I would definitely hire them again! -- Eileen J, Annapolis, MD, 11/12/2011
