Wedding band/dj - Donegal Town/Ballybofey

Postby OurWeddingDay » Mon Oct 18, 2021 7:47 pm

Can anyone recommend wedding bands/dj's in this area and give me a rough idea of costs (if possible!).
I am planning to ring around a few of them next week but wanted to know if anyone could recommend some first!
Many Thanks in advance! O-O

Hi

We are getting married in The Villa Rose and we are having The Mindbenders band (£1200) and Geard Dillon DJ (£300). Both meant to be the best in the business apparently so hopefully that's true!

O right!
Thanks for the replies!
The Mindbenders and Gerard Dillon! Haven't come across them now as of yet!
Must try and check them out somewhere! Would be grateful if you have any contact details or know where they might be playing around this area in near future!

Flipside are a brilliant band and their dj option is good aswell, I got quoted around 1200-1300 for a wedding, unfortunately they were booked for my date. I have gone with the Cavanagh Brothers from Greencastle and they quoted me 1200 for the night with DJ for October 2012 and they have to travel to Ardara!! I would try and go see some of the bands to make sure they are your kind of thing aswell, and see if you could see yourself dancing to them all night!!!

Hi Lulu79

Paul from The Mindbenders looks after all their bookings and enquiries, etc. His number is 028 71 267577. We actually went to hear them play in The Villa Rose itself so we knew what we could expect. They had only been playing 10 minutes and the dancefloor was completely filled. We were really impressed with them.

Geard Dillon's number is 07754064629 (Derry office) or 0749108832 (Donegal office). His website is www.gdillon.com.

I booked The Beef Steak Dancers. Heard them singing at a wedding and they were very good. I also booked Apollo DJ's.

Just wondering if anyone can recommend a photographer or videographer that is either based in Donegal or near Donegal? Can't seem to find one.

Thanks, :wv
