Should I have Irish dancers at my wedding?

I think it’s nice to have them but the timing is very important!

I’d recommend getting them on during the tea break or even before the first dance. It’s never a good idea to start the band and then have to stop after 15 or 20 minutes to let them perform…That just breaks up the band set and loses playing time!

Another important thing is to make sure your irish dancers bring the right cables to connect to a mixing desk. Sometimes a band member will just be handed a phone or iPod and they mightn’t always have the right connection.

I also want to give a quick shoutout to Fergal from Celtic Dance Fusion. They were on with us a few weeks ago in Galway and he called me a few days before to ask if was ok to use the PA System and again a few days after the wedding to say thanks which was a nice touch! They are well worth checking out http://www.celticdancefusion.com/

So I’d say have Irish dancers at your wedding. They do add a nice touch but it’s just very important to get them on at the right time as to not take away from your band or DJ!
