We just wanted to say a huge (and late!) thank you for playing at our wedding reception on the 31 January. You were fantastic and completely made the night. Everyone, especially us, loved the music. Thank you so much for helping make a fantastic party.
What can we say? You were all fantastic! I have never seen so many people having as much fun on a dance floor. We had the perfect white wedding we've always dreamed of and you made it extra special with our song as our first dance and creating a great atmosphere at the reception. Hope you enjoyed it, we did! We will recommend Big Night Out at every possible opportunity.
Kind regards,

Hi Cathryn.
We're just dropping a wee line to say thanks so much again for doing our wedding on the 8th of march. You guys were brilliant and exceeded our highest expectations. So many people since the wedding have commented on how good the band was. We went to see many bands on the lead up to the wedding to find the right one and none of them were as good or as varied in what they did as you were. It was so important for us to get a good band and you really helped make our big day better. Thanks very much again.

Dear Big Night Out,
What a great night. Thank you so much for playing at our wedding at the Craw's Nest on Saturday. You guys were amazing - and don't just take our word for it - I think everyone I spoke to mentioned it. Really sorry we didn't get a chance to thank you in person but you know what its like. Loved the modern twists to the ceilidh stuff and the quick song switches. Something for absolutely everyone.
I think all our friends from Fife (and we are the first of the group to get married so that's a good few) will know where to go for the music when it comes to their big day (and night out!)
Now - off to catch a plane to Vietnam...

We just wanted to say a huge thank you for playing at our wedding at Airth Castle on 24th February. You were absolutely fantastic and I don't think our dance floor was empty once! We had so many comments about how great you all were. We ignored a lot of guests as we couldn't leave the dance floor! Thanks for doing our first dance "It must be love" - loved it!
Thanks a million.

To David, Cathryn and co.
Many, many thanks for the part you played in making our big day so special. You really were excellent, such an amazing variety of music, everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves from start to finish. Even guests who hadn't been on a dance floor for years were right up there thanks to your energy and encouragement.
I missed seeing one of my guests being catapulted into the bandnduring a Scottish dance but hear it was impressive! A bridesmaid went home with a broken toe and a another guest has a full leg bruise from dancing on the table!!!! A good night was had by all and we'll definatekly be recommend you to other, even tho you don't need the help!
Kind Regards,
Fiona and Scott xxx

Hello, just wanted to say how fantastic you were at our wedding reception on 15th Sept.
All our guests had a fab time and loads have commented on how great you were.
Hope Katherine is ok after coming down to sing 9-5, I loved it.
Felt bad for not speaking to my guests much, but couldn't stop dancing.
Both my husband and I had thought that we'd contacted you to request The Proclaimers - 500 miles as that was the first song we danced too.
Thank you again.
Look forward to the next wedding I go to and you're playing.
I am just writing to thank you so very much for playing at our wedding! You were just perfect and although it was so hot in the Dunmore Suite, people were still up for a good dance!
So many people said to us how good you were and how much they enjoyed the night. The band can make or break a wedding and you definately made it! I don't know how you managed in that heat, but you were really terrific and I can't thank you enough for the booking.
I know how busy you always are but if any of my friends decide to get marrried I'll be telling them to try and book you!
Many, many thanks,
Juilie M Mair Gill and David Beech - 23 March 06 (letter received)
Dear Big Night Out.
We just wanted to say a huge thank you for your fantastic music at our wedding on 10th Feb at Balbirnie. So many of our guests have commented on how excellent you were so we wanted to pass that on to you. I don't expect you've ever seen such disorganised Scottish dancing, but I assure you that all our English friends and family thought that was one of the highlights of the day!!
Many Thanks, Gill and David

Radisson Hotel
I was dj'ing at a recent function in the Radisson hotel where I was to finish off the night with a two hour set after Big Night Out had finished. I'd arrived early to set up and was just listening to the band do their thing, and was absolutely amazed at the sound they were producing. Their range of music left me short of tracks to play!!!Their appearance, professionalism, sense of humour, variety of music and (for me) most importantly their sound was absolutely outstanding. I would highly recommend them to anyone for any funtion.I grabbed a couple of cards and will be sure to keep you guys in mind if I hear of anyone looking for a function band.Well done folks...keep up the good work! :o)
Cheers and all the best for 2006. Chris Mrs D Glennie - 04 March 06 (letter received)
To all the members of "Big Night Out". A big thank you for making our daughters wedding such a success. Such a professional band we would not hesitate to recommend you.

i just heard the band playin at a friend wedding recently at the Dean Park. Had heard a lot about them before, proved correct. Totally wicked band, talented with good banter throughout!! Excellent night with ace music. Personal fave is their version of the Darkness! Better than the original in mine and my friends opinion!!

Fantastic Wedding Set!
David, Cathryn, Mark & Stephen played at our wedding at House For An Art Lover in January 2004.We'd seen them play at a friends wedding a couple of years before & were so impressed that we arranged our wedding date around when they were available to play.It's hard to pick out highlights from such a great set, but the Abba medly was brilliant - as was The Darkness - priceless!
I don't think we'll ever forget watching everyone bouncing up & down to the Proclaimers at the end of the evening.
I'd recommend them to anyone.

Fantastic band
As a wedding photographer and my husband a videographer we have had the chance to see BIG NIGHT OUT a few times. We think they are a fantastic band. They are all very talanted musicians, and a great laugh too. I would recomend anyone thinking of hiring a wedding band to make them top of the list. Lyndsay and Ewan
