Great Reviews
“Iron Broo played at our wedding in July 2017 with 3 piece band and disco. They made the night, we’d highly recommend them! My wife and I loved them, and we still get great feedback from guests. Iron Broo is everything you want in a traditional Scottish ceilidh band but also with some unique twists to make them memorable (their Orcadian Strip the Willow is awesome!). Going to their Xmas Ceilidh and can’t wait to dance to their tune again. Many thanks, Iron Broo :).

Make your special memories timeless with a Scottish Ceilidh
A ceilidh band wedding is recognised as one of the best ways to make the evening reception memorable.
For a top-quality wedding band and a night to remember there really is no better way to get your wedding reception guests talking and give them a night to remember with jigs, reels, Scottish dances and a good old strip the willow. What about starting your wedding off with The Grand March?
Music & Song are our ceilidh passion.
Traditional music is our passion and weddings have been our bread and butter for more than two decades. No Scottish Wedding ceilidh band would be complete without a ceilidh. A ceilidh (a Gaelic word pronounced Kay-lay) is the traditional way to celebrate a family gathering or event in Scotland and it’s one of the best ways to make a wedding memorable. People will talk about our ceilidhs for years to come. We call all the dances! So ignorance is no excuse for people not to join in and it can be a great way to mix a crowd and break the ice between strangers and new families at weddings. A ceilidh band wedding is recognised as one of the best ways to make the evening reception memorable.
‘..they were utterly brilliant!’
