"Hup were brilliant on our wedding day. All night our guests were complimenting them. They quickly sussed out the crowd and played music that everyone enjoyed. We also had a few ceilidh dances thrown in which was a great laugh and got people dancing and mingling. We thoroughly enjoyed Hup and would recommend them to anyone. Thank you again Hup for making our evening so memorable and enjoyable!"
"Hup put on an amazing performance for our wedding! They had us ceilidhing, singing and dancing throughout the night. Great reviews from all of our guests and were really receptive to requests for our first dance which their cover of was really special."
"We had Hup at our wedding in Bordeaux. They were absolutely brilliant. The whole process from start to finish was so easy and stress-free. On the day, they did the perfect balance between ceilidh dancing and covers. We had a lot of Irish people who didn’t necessarily know what they were doing and the caller was fantastic at getting everyone up and dancing. I highly recommend Hup, especially for an wedding abroad!"
"Folks, Just a wee note to say in all honesty, we had an absolute ball on Saturday and it was almost entirely down to you guys! You were just superb. Brilliant set, read the room perfectly. Got everyone going with the ceilidh and you were all so easy to work with and so drama free and kind to us. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts - we just loved it! Kez x"
"We booked Hup for our wedding at the start of May and they were absolutely fantastic!!! Their talent and energy was just brilliant, the dance floor was full all night and everybody at the wedding couldn’t stop raving about how good they were. They were also more than happy to learn our first dance song at our request. They made the night even more perfect than we could’ve imagined, I couldn’t recommend them more!"
"From start to finish, I cannot say enough about how much we and our wedding guests enjoyed Hup. We felt they really were a part of our celebrations. From initial contact, comms and on the night itself, simply fantastic people who literally raised the roof. So many comments on the sound and quality, just epic."
"Cannot thank you enough for the best wedding I could have wished for - Hup were so so good! Everybody had a great night, you were amazing."
"What a night, we got a whole lot more than a covers band for our anniversary do, the Ceilidh dancing was brilliant. Matt was excellent at talking us through the dances, top quality band!"
"Hup were superb. Learned to play our first dance on short notice. Lovely people and we would highly recommend them!"
"I booked Hup for my 50th Birthday, couldn't have asked for a better band, so entertaining, had us all on the floor the whole night!"
