Evening Reception Music

The meal is finished, and people are ready to dance!  Let The Rare Aul Stuff get the dancefloor full with a varied selection of wedding classics and folk favourites.  

We’ve put together a sample set list below, spanning a wide group of genres to suit all tastes. The list is only a sample however and if you would like your music to go in a certain direction, lets have a chat about it!

The Rare Aul Stuff will also learn your first and second dances (if you would like us to) free of charge.
