What our clients say about Amethyst
Simply Amazing!We hired Amethyst for our wedding at the Apex in Edinburgh, and they absolutely made the day! From the moment they arrived, their energy was contagious. The mix of ceilidh and classic wedding tunes was perfect for our guests. Everyone, young and old, was on the dance floor all night. I’ve never seen such a full dance floor at a wedding before. Highly recommend! We also loved that laid back acoustic set they did for the drink’s reception and the fact that we could pick the songs that we wanted. Natalia was great at answering all our questions and getting back to us quickly.
Lydia McDonald, Edinburgh.
Made Our Wedding Unforgettable! We loved Amethyst at our wedding in the Scottish Borders, and they absolutely nailed it. The music was outstanding, and they knew exactly how to keep the energy up throughout the night. The ceilidh dancing was so much fun, and the band’s enthusiasm was infectious. We had the best time, and our guests did too. Truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding!
Trudy MacNair, Galashiels
Perfect Atmosphere for Our Wedding. The band were fantastic. They created such a lively and fun atmosphere, and the mix of Scottish folk tunes and modern hits was perfect for all our guests. The band were professional, punctual, and clearly passionate about what they do. Natalia was always good at getting back to us and answering any questions we had. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone planning a wedding in Scotland.

Incredible Energy! We booked this band for our wedding in Edinburgh, and they were phenomenal! From their first set, they had the entire venue buzzing. The ceilidh was such a hit, and even people who didn’t normally dance were joining in. The band’s energy was infectious, and they really knew how to read the crowd. Our guests are still talking about how great they were!
Euan Mackinnon, North Berwick,
Best Wedding Band in Scotland! We had the pleasure of having this band at our wedding in Dundee, and they were brilliant. They had the perfect balance between traditional Scottish tunes and the pop songs we love. The ceilidh dancing was a highlight – they made sure everyone knew the steps and kept things lively. We had so many compliments from our guests. 100% worth every penny!
Alice Henderson, Dundee
Highly Recommend! We chose Amethyst for our wedding in Inverness, and it was the best decision ever! They made sure everything ran smoothly from the first song to the last. They played a fantastic mix of Scottish folk music and contemporary hits, and the dance floor was packed all night. The band were so friendly and easy to work with. We couldn’t be happier. Natalia was helpful especially with our first dance which was a slightly different version of the original, but the band did a great job of it.
Susan Hunter, Beauly Nr inverness
An Absolute Blast.. From start to finish, Amethyst was brilliant. We had our wedding at Carlowrie Castle in the Scottish countryside, and they created the perfect atmosphere. The ceilidh section was so much fun, and they managed to get even the most reluctant dancers on their feet. The setlist was varied, so there was something for everyone. Would book them again!
Ella Cairn and Jamie Turnbull, Carlowrie Castle.
Fantastic Band! We booked this wedding band for our big day in Stirling, and they did not disappoint! The music was spot on, with a brilliant blend of ceilidh tunes and pop classics. They really knew how to read the crowd and get people involved in the dancing. Natalia’s voice was exceptional, and the whole band were so professional. We were dancing all night long!
