Lodge on Loch Lomond, 13-May-23

When I discovered The White Doves online, I was blown away by their talent and range of musical coverage. I was stoked when they were able to play our wedding. If my expectations were high already they surpassed them wildly on the night. Amy and the guys were extremely professional and polite, even giving me the ability to play an intimate song to my new wife on their set-break. They had the whole room up dancing the entire night and their musicianship was second to none! Every member is an absolute talent on their instrument, they have all clearly played with each other many many times before and their sound reflects that. The energy was incredible and when they had to stop it was a genuine disappointment. Thanks White Doves for helping make our biggest day that much more memorable. Recommended to anyone!

Blair Castle, 16-Jul-22

White Doves were absolutely amazing and our guests thoroughly enjoyed themselves. Amy was brilliant, we were running late, but she didn't stress and kept guests on the dancefloor all night. Half of our guests are from England and had never danced a ceilidh dance before so that was a nice surprise for them and Loch Lomond at the end was a big hit. Many guests were left wanting more and didn't want the night to end. Will def recommend White Doves and if we have another party in Scotland we will be looking them up. Soo many people came up to me to say how great they were and to say their voices were amazing

The Royal College of Physicians, 11-Dec-21

Brilliant throughout the entire planning process, through postponing to our actual wedding. A band member tested positive to covid and they dealt with the situation in an incredibly professional manner so we felt reassured and happy about the changes that had to be made. Our first dance song sounded amazing and I couldn't stay off the dance floor all night. Everyone loved the music. Thank you White Doves for going above and beyond to make our wedding so special. A huge shout out to Madeline (I think that was her name?) for stepping in last minute and doing such an incredible job.

Sophie Smith, Edinburgh

P&J Live, 28-Nov-24

The White Doves provided the atmosphere and ambience suited for our event perfectly. They were great to deal with on the night and accommodating of our changes, as were they with the last minute change in line up due to covid - it didn't affect their performance at all and we were delighted they could still play at our event.

Fantastic band. They had the dance floor full all night. We received lots of brilliant feedback from our guests. We found Amy very good at communicating with us prior to the wedding. They even learned a special song for us. They really made our wedding a party to remember. Only complaint we have is our muscles ached for days afterwards with too much dancing

Gleneagles hotel, 02-Sep-17

Dear Amy, Difficult to find enough superlatives to describe the band last night. You were just so very professional and very, very special. Thank you all so much for your flexibility with our late running dinner. It was incredibly good of you to be so accommodating. Every part of your set worked for the reunion. The guests all loved the ceilidh section and thank you for finding the accordionist at such short notice. The calling was excellent and, as you saw from the dance floor, not too much confusion in the dancing. I don't think there was a minute when the dance floor wasn't full and bouncing, literally, throughout the evening. Thank you again for all of your help and for making the evening so very special. Kind regards Jenny

The White Doves are extremely talented and all of our guests were really impressed and continued to rave about them all night! They took requests throughout the night and we were so pleased with all the music they played. The half hour of ceilidh went down extremely well! We would highly recommend them and thank them so much for making our wedding reception fantastic. A group of very talented artists that are unique, but come together to make fantastic music!

Amy and the White Doves were absolutely brilliant at our wedding on 19th March. All of the songs were chosen really well, and a special mention is due for learning our special dance (Seal, Kiss from a Rose) which was performed so well and sung beautifully!! It really meant a lot to us. The dance floor was always occupied right up to the end. Huge thanks to White Doves.

Broxmouth park, 25-Jul-15

I thought I should send you an email to say how great the White Doves were at my daughter's wedding at Broxmouth Park East Lothian on the 25th of July. Every one of our guests- including Spanish ones- commented on them. They were competent and organised when they arrived and their range and versatility were incredible and very much appreciated. They played such an amazing mixture of music that everyone was catered to. Please pass on my heartfelt thanks for making the wedding go with such a swing.

Hi Amy, Sorry it has taken almost two weeks to get in touch with you guys. It has been a busy fortnight! Julia and I just wanted to say a massive thanks for playing at our wedding on 10 October at Craiglockhart. We had a great time and loved the band. Our guests have all had nothing but positive things to say about the music and you even managed to get a few folk up who I never thought I would see dance in my life so well done for that! Thanks for singing 'Is this love' for our first dance too - we absolutely loved it! Julia and I hope to get down to the old chain pier for one of your gigs there soon as we just live 5mins away. Thanks again, all the best Ewan and Julia :)

Amy was very easy to deal with before the event and fully answered all of our questions in the lead up. The band were brilliant and kept the floor busy all night with a wide range of songs for all tastes. They did a brilliant version of 'Is this Love' by Bob Marley and the Wailers for our first dance which Julia and I both absolutely loved. We can't thank them enough and would have no hesitation in recommending them to friends,
