I can highly recommend the Gospel Wedding Group. When looking for music for our wedding, we wanted something that would create a fun and joyful mood and the Gospel Wedding Group really delivered. So many of our guests commented on how amazingly talented the group was and how much they contributed to the feeling of celebration. As most brides will attest, there is a lot to distract you on the big day and I think that my husband and I were only able to truly appreciate how wonderful the group was when watching our wedding video.

In addition to delivering a wonderful performance on the day, Sandy from the Group was so flexible in the planning process and really helped to guide our song choice. She was even able to accommodate changes to our music after feedback from our priest.

We also had the added complexity of being based in Switzerland and Sandy even came travelled to meet us in our city when she was in Switzerland for work.

If you are looking for music that will bring a smile to your face and the faces of your guests then do not hesitate to book the Gospel Wedding Group!

Well what can I say - if you love music then you really need to avail of the services of the Gospel Wedding Group. From the very first email Sandy was so responsive. She sent us a beautiful list of songs to choose from and also included a couple of very special ones for us to mark our deceased parents ('Lovely Day' and ' Sally Gardens'). When I met Sandy to go through the wedding music she was really warm and understood instantly how important music was to us as a couple. Unfortunately due to a family tragedy we had to postpone our wedding at short notice but this was no problem for the Gospel Group, they sympathized with us for our loss and provided us with a selection of alternative dates. On the day it is no exaggeration to say the music made the day , the sound echoing through Ballintubber was almost haunting it was so beautiful. I have never been so happy as when I walked up the aisle to their version of the Supremes 'Be my Baby'. I must stress that at all times their versions of popular songs were in total fitting with the sacred surroundings of the Abbey. We felt like we were floating through their version of 'Mo Gra th?'. The music was just the right mix of spiritual and funky, it was great to look around and see our guests swaying back and forth to 'Say a little Prayer' during the sign of peace. Other highlights included 'Ave Maria' and 'Sine Alleluia'. We signed the Registrar to David Bowie's 'Absolute Beginners' which was amazing. The best part of the music was the rapport between the singers themselves - they seemed so genuinely happy for us. We cannot recommend this choir enough and would say to anyone who loves music and is is pondering costs - this is one place you do not want to scrimp as they really made our day!

To Gospel Wedding Group,
Peter and I just wanted to say a massive thank you to Gospel wedding group for making the wedding ceremony so magical.
My family and friends were amazed by the beautiful singing and harmonies on the day. Furthermore, it put everyone in great humour for the rest of the day , especially finishing off with "Oh Happy Day" !!!!!
I will always look back with fond memories and remember the beautiful sounds of the Gospel wedding group as I walked up the aisle.
Thanks so much again and I would reccomend Gospel Wedding group to any Bride and Groom.

TOE TAPPING GOODNESS.........from the moment we started planning our ceremony, the Gospel Wedding Group were always top choice to sing at our wedding. The obvious chemistry and friendship within the group makes for flawless harmonies and musicality.
Offering a very impressive song list, we chose a mixed bag of both upbeat and traditional "bridal" songs, which fit in perfectly to what we had imagined our wedding ceremony to be.
I cannot write this review without making reference to one song in particular- This Marriage (Eric Whitacre). A stunning reflective piece which had so much meaning to us both and made such an impression on our guests that each person we spoke to throughout the day and beyond, raved about how beautiful it sounded. In fact, we had more people comment on how fantastic the church music before they said congratulations......
We would both highly highly recommend the Gospel Wedding Group to anyone looking for that extra special touch that will have everyone dancing along in the pews!!!!!
A perfect way to start the perfect day!

O Happy Day!
Without a doubt, the best and most personal wedding gift we received was the gift of the Galway Gospel Wedding Group! Prior to our wedding we received their impressive song menu and we chose the songs that meant the most to us. The only other details we had to submit to the choir were the date, venue and time. Like magic, they appeared on the day and seamlessly fitted into our celebrations.
My beautiful bridesmaids, my dad and I stood outside the door in anticipation of the sound of their voices to usher me into the most wonderful day of my life. When they began, their singing took my breath away. The arrangements and harmonies of our chosen songs were stunning and exceptionally moving. At the end of the ceremony we were enjoying the singing so much that we forgot to walk back down the aisle and had to be prompted by the Registrar to do so!
It was a beautiful bright sunshiny day and we were having some bubbles outside the hotel after the ceremony. The choir, as an extra surprise, found themselves a suitable spot and serenaded ourselves, our family and friends while we mingled.
We now have a permanent soundtrack of our wedding day in our hearts and all because of the gift of the wonderful Galway Gospel Wedding Group ? Thank You x

From start to finish it was a pleasure to deal with Sandy and the choir. They made our ceremony an extra special occasion. So many of our guests commented on the beautiful singing. They offer an extensive song menu to choose from. The moment we heard them in the NUIG chapel we knew they had to part of our wedding.

After getting engaged, I quickly decided I wanted a gospel choir at my wedding ceremony. After making some enquiries, I got in touch with Sandy from Gospel Wedding Group. After hearing them at Mass in NUIG, I knew I had to book them and they didn't disappoint on the day. They provided a long list of songs to choose from and were extremely flexible and helpful with song choice. They were energetic and lively and many of our guests commented on how amazing they were. They were a highlight of our wedding day. I would not hesitate in recommending them to couples as I thought they were well worth the price and were totally professional in all my dealings with them.

The Gospel Wedding Group were fabulous! Everybody remarked on how "wonderful" the music was in the church. We chose a mix of upbeat and slower songs in English, Italian and in Irish. They even accompanied me when I sang as a surprise for my husband!
The songs were sung with great meaning and the harmonies were seamless. The Gospel Wedding Group produced a wonderful sound that set us up for a fantastic day! T?s maith leath na hoibre!
