what couples say about us

“We had The Harleys play at our wedding recently and they were just amazing. We had gone to see them play a set before we booked them and knew we were making the right decision when we saw the dancefloor was full all night. I love music and I really wanted our band to be incredible and a talking point and they absolutely were. Everyone is still talking about how unreal the band was, from the first dance right to the end the dancefloor was hopping. It was also an absolute pleasure to deal with Gary, we always enjoyed our conversations and everything was so easy and straightforward, nothing was a bother, a true professional but also a really nice person. They even accommodated my Dad singing and they learned my favorite song which was one of the highlights of the day. Anyone would be lucky to have The Harleys play at their wedding and we are so happy that we had that honor”

“We can't recommend The Harley's enough! We had 100 people at our wedding and were worried that the dance floor would be empty...little did we know the tricks these lads had up their sleeves. The place was absolutely hopping!! We had a fair few OAPs at our wedding and feared that our music taste would be too rocky - instead it was the OAPs rocking it up for most of the night. The lads were so easy to deal with and played all our requests. The warm up for our first dance was a great idea and even watching the gig back on our video, the floor was hopping all night. Can't thank you lads enough or recommend you more. Our friends have since gotten engaged and booked you lads for their wedding so we will be seeing you again in Doolin in August!! Can't wait!!”

“The Harleys? Absolute legends!! I was nearly crying this morning looking into the room where you played. It was off the scale. Everyone kept saying it - even people that don’t like music! We cannot wait to go out and see you play again after our honeymoon.
