Price of My Pig

Another splendid wedding Ceilidh!

Ben calls a variety of types of dance: waltzes, polkas, reels and the occasional Israeli dance. He includes popular moves such as stripping the willow, the basket and threading the needle. Price of My Pig ceilidhs are called with enthusiasm and an excellent sense of humour, making the dances fun for all ages, from children to retired. I must have been to half a dozen Price of My Pig ceilidhs this year and have enjoyed every one.

Where's the 6* button?! These guys were just fab as entertainment for our wedding day. When you have a mix of young, old and young at heart, it's so hard to please everyone, but please everyone they did. With their infectious beats, comedic interludes and toe tapping tunes, Ben and co brought energy, fun and laughter to the dancefloor. The dress code for guests was an optional touch of purple in memory of my mum, and I was really touched that they turned up in purple ties too. What lovely guys! We had a great time boogieing into the early hours as we added on a funky disco too. Thanks Price of my Pig! You're Priceless! Emma and Alex

Ben and his band provided a hell of a surprise party for my mum's 60th! Their ability to integrate with our extended friends and family, both in terms of the 'surprise' moment, the food and the speeches was superb, and really meant we were able to make it personal to mum. She hasn't stopped beaming since, and commented that having a ceilidh meant that we could enjoy the dance on our own terms, and also chat to reunited friends and family with some excellent background music. From young to old, everyone had a blast!

Five stars are insufficient to express the quality of this musical entertainment. I would say more like five and three quarters.

These guys are brilliant. We asked if they would be happy to play at our wedding, after coming across the band at my Mum's retirement party and seeing how much fun everyone had. A lot of our wedding guests were unsure what to expect as they'd never been to a ceilidh before, however from the first song everyone was up and dancing. So many people have since contacted us to let us know how much they enjoyed it. It was a warm evening, and the barn was very hot, but despite this no-one wanted to take a break and miss any of the fun and the dancing! For the last dance we had to split the line in two as so many people wanted to get up and join in. We also opted for the DJ service after, which was great and kept everyone entertained right up until midnight. Ben is fantastic and makes the whole process so easy. The whole time I had quick responses and Ben was extremely helpful. If you're searching for a band I would 100% recommend Price of My Pig.

An excellent band - would definitely recommend!

Price of my Pig played at our wedding last week and they were amazing! When looking for a wedding band we found it really hard to find something that wasn’t cheesy and generic. We didn’t want a traditional soppy first dance either, we wanted something a bit different, which would get everyone up and dancing with us and this band were perfect - we couldn’t have asked for more! Ben made organisation a breeze and they stayed behind til midnight to play our playlist on their PA system with their disco lights and even asked us near the time what our last dance was to be. We had a fantastic time dancing along with both the traditional and non- traditional dances and have had loads of our guests saying how much fun they had. We can’t thank Ben and the rest of the band enough!!

Absolutely brilliant time had by everyone at my daughters wedding. The band were funny, adaptable and great musicians. Would thoroughly recommend

Price of My Pig played at our wedding last Saturday and were absolutely incredible. The music was flawless and Ben was funny and engaging, and explained the dances really well to all of our guests (most of whom had never been to a ceilidh before). It was the perfect end to a perfect day.

Marvellous inclusive joy or joys...cant recommend them enough x
