Ulster Landing Made Our Event Special

We hired Ulster Landing for our daughter's wedding reception. The band played during the dinner hour. It was a wonderful performance and we enjoyed them so much. They were very responsive and professional.

Amazing musicians

We hired Karen and one of her partners for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. They were phenomenal! Communication with Karen leading up to the event was excellent and she was so helpful to us in selecting the right kind of music for our Irish-infused wedding. My only regret is not being able to sit and listen to them from beginning to end! Everyone commented on how beautiful the music was. I definitely would hire them again for any event and highly recommend them!
