Dear Frank,
I just wanted to write, very belatedly, to thank you and the band so very much for playing at our wedding at Vinopolis on 13 September. We had such a special day, and enjoyed every minute of the ceilidh. All of our guests are still talking about how much fun it was – and so many people commented how inclusive and fun the ceilidh was. Everyone enjoyed it so much.
Thank you also for working with Elaine, my aunt. It meant a lot to the family for her to do a little bit of calling – I really appreciate you letting her do that. I appreciate it is a deviation from your normal programme – and so we are very grateful.
The band really were fantastic – I’ll be recommending you very highly to anyone looking for a band for an event. Thank you all so very much.

Dear Frank,
Just a note to say a big thank you for your band's performance at our wedding on 23 October. It was fantastic! Great musicianship, great playing and great sound.
We had a wonderful honeymoon at Flodigarry on Skye and were very surprised when your champagne arrived for us – THANK YOU!

Dear Frank,
Belated thanks for your magnificent conribution to our Ceilidh last Saturday, you all did a fantastic job and helped create exactly the atmosphere we were after - no mean feat with such a mixed bunch of guests ('mixed' in terms of experience, anyway!)
Ewan and I had a ball, and if the cards, flowers and phone calls that keep arriving are anything to go by, so did all our friends.
Our thanks again to you both and to the rest of the band. All good wishes,
~ Ewan and Clare
Dear Frank,
Waterloo Ball - 5 June 2015
As you know, we had a very successful Ball and have had many comments on how much everyone enjoyed the evening. Part of the success of course is down to your band's great playing and enthusiasm, which is very much appreciated by all the dancers. Our thanks go out to you for stepping into the breach at such short notice!
We will be featuring the Summer Ball in the Summer edition of The Caledonian magazine. With thanks and regards.

Dear Frank and the band,
Just a quick note to say thank you so much for playing at our wedding at Crockwell.
You really pitched the level of our guests just right, and the music itself was great.
So many people have said how much fun they had dancing and some of my defining moments of the day were twirling around with all our friends and family. We really hope we can catch you again at the Ceilidh Club in Camden in the future. Best wishes,
~ Laura & Steve Meldrum-Carter
Dear Frank,
Thank you so much for Saturday night. It was another incredible success. There are very few events that really bring the College community together quite like the Ceilidh.
Your ability to talk everyone through the dances so well from the stage is amazing. The thanks and feedback from everyone has been overwhelming. With renewed thanks,
~ Alistair Goddard, Department of War Studies, King's College London
Dear Frank, Sheena and Jim
What a wonderful day! I am still reeling from my exertions on the dance floor and just wanted to thank you all for giving the children a very special and vibrant taste of bonny Scotland today.
Listening to live music is a great privilege - how fortunate we are to have such a talented family in our community. The children were buzzing with excitement after the assemble and we have even have a few haggis converts amongst them!
Happy Burn's Day to you all.
Fiona Adams, Headteacher, Charles Kingsley's C.E. Primary School
Dear Frank,
Thank you so much for ensuring all had a really great night on Saturday. The whole evening was a real success and the good news is that we raised just over £7000 for the respective charities.
The music is always a high point of the evening and everyone who has thanked us has said how much they enjoyed the Ceilidh dancing and that the guidance you offered was perfectly pitched!

Dear Frank
I think it is safe to say that the Ball was an overwhelmeing success, and I would be pleased if you could pass on my particular thanks to the fantastic Frank Reid Scottish Dance Band for their help and support during the evening, whch helped make the event so enjoyable and memorable.
The contribution made by the Band was immeasuruable and ensured that the guests were able to dance the night away in style. Indeed, the Band were superb and it was quite obvious that the guests were enjoying the music and dancing so much they were very reluctant to go home!

Dear Frank,
A belated thank you for playing at our wedding at the Barbican on 20th May. We knew you were great having seen you at Cecil Sharp but is was much better having you to ourselves.
The music was wonderful and the calling was just right for our guests. We very much hope to see you again at Cecil Sharp to get our fix of SCD and the Frank Reid Band! Thank you too to Fiona for her time before the wedding.
