Profile: 

Your wedding reception's success can hinge on the band you choose for it. All of us in the Irish Weavers know this and we will strive to make your occasion an enjoyable and memorable one for both of you and for your family and your friends.

Your guests can enjoy a selection from the huge number of songs and music types at our fingertips including Waltz, Irish, Rock and Roll, Country, Fast, Slow, Modern and Jive. One of the beauties of our band is the way we cater for all age groups and nationalities - from your great-grandmothers to your nieces and nephews! A great night is always had by all.

The key to our success lies in enabling people to have a good time. We are brilliant at this. You can confidently rely on our years of experience playing for weddings which has taught us how to read what each audience wants.

Our instrumentation includes vocals, fiddle, accordion, banjo, guitar, electric guitar, bass, mandolin, flute, keyboards, spoons, bodhrán and electric drums. Because bad amplification can ruin your occasion we provide modern sound gear, test the venue and keep the volume of the amplification from being too loud. We have absolutely no problem in accepting direction on day itself about the volume level.

You can discuss all the details of our performance and line up with us before your wedding day. We will ensure that all your special requests for throwing the bouquet, the opening dance, who to call up to the stage to sing, backing singers from the floor, what must be played and what must not be played and so forth are met.


You guarantee to set the seal on your occasion when you choose to have The Irish Weavers play for your reception.
