As you’d think, a mixture, the compere fronts the show, getting your guests up for the dances from inviting your bridal party up for the first dances, to calling ceilidh dances where necessary. Typically this would take the format of the first dances from the disco, with the bridal party being called onto the floor as we'll have arranged before, then into the ceilidh for a few dances, then disco up to the buffet, then another ceilidh set, then disco to bring the evening to a close.
Typical running when there is ceilidh and disco -
Background music as you welcome your evening guests
First 2-3 tracks from disco as you, your bridal party and then your guests are invited to the floor
Ceilidh band play a set, with dances called where necessary. Dances which might be done could be -
Gay Gordons
Dashing White Sergeant
Canadian Barn Dance
St Bernard’s Waltz
Britannia Two Step
Strip the Willow
Then a wee bit disco taking it up to the buffet
Following the buffet (during which background music will be played)
The ceilidh band do a second set, this time dances might include -
Military Two Step
Circassian Circle
Pride of Erin Waltz
Quickstep
Gay Gordons
Orcadian Strip the Willow
The disco playing your requests until it’s time to go.
This option gives the best of both - the live band for the ceilidh and the genuine recorded music for those who are looking for the disco.
