We are so glad we booked Kelly & Damien for our civil ceremony music! They really were just amazing! Kelly kindly advised how a civil ceremony is laid out in terms of music and how many songs to fit in and when which helped us immensely! On the day the celebrant skipped over where we had a song which meant one of our songs were left out and I have just received an email from kelly to say they were going to put our songs on a USB so that we can listen to all the songs we had picked! There isn’t many people who would do that after the ceremony! Thank you Kelly & Damien!

Our guests loved the music! To any future bride and groom, get Kelly and Damien you won't regret it! Thank you so much to the both of you for the amazing music!! Xx

WOW! That's the first word that springs to mind when I think of Kelly and Damien and Something Blue Acoustic. Having SBA play at our wedding a few weeks back was the best decision myself and my now husband made during our wedding planning. Kelly was super friendly and accommodating and responsive throughout the planning phase and was open to all of our ideas! She even learned Songbird as Gaeilge for me as my entrance song to the church! Go raibh mile maith agat as sin Kelly! From the first note of Songbird to the last song Kelly and Damien performed at our drinks reception they were just absolutely amazing! Kelly's voice would actually melt you and Damien's skills on the guitar are unreal! They are the perfect duo! Our guests were absolutely raving about SBA all day and night and some of them said the Kelly's version of Eve the Apple of my Eye by Bell X1 was the best version they have ever heard! One of those guest being a wedding singer herself! If you are thinking of booking Something Blue Acoustics...don't think any longer...they are the best! What more could you ask for...incredibly talented musicians and wonderful humans too!! Without a doubt the best decision we ever made!! Thanks so much Kelly and Damien...same time again next year ya??? :P

Kelly and Damien were fantastic and contributed greatly to our day. Kelly's emails were informative, displayed a strong sense of excitement to perform and reassured us at every interaction that we had made the right choice. When it came to selecting songs for our ceremony they were very accommodating and guided us where required. On the day they waited patiently in the rain as it looked like an outdoor ceremony was the wrong call but as the rain cleared we couldn't have impressed our guests more with the musical ability of these two. The drinks reception set list was great and we were very appreciative of Kelly allowing us the use of her mic for ceremony readings and a speech. Cannot recommend Something Blue highly enough, they were excellent.

Kelly and damien are an absolute dream to deal with, extremely easy going which makes wedding planning easier. Kelly was on the ball with song suggestions which we loved.and were do we start on her beautiful voice and damien on guitar. Cant recommend them enough

What can I say about Kelly and Damien? They were absolutely amazing. We had an outdoor ceremony in an amazing location on one of the hottest days of the year and hearing Kelly singing "yours" by Ella Henderson, (which she learned especially) just made the moment totally magical as I walked up the aisle. Damien played an instrumental of Fleetwood Mac's landline during the ceremony and it was just so beautiful. The music during our ceremony and drinks reception was truly exceptional. Kelly and Damien also went to the trouble of sourcing an additional PA system for our celebrant and nothing was too much trouble. They were fantastic to deal with and I would highly recommend to any brides and grooms!! Wish I could go back and listen to them again!!!

5 STARS ACROSS THE BOARD!! We booked something blue acoustics based on the online reviews, we were looking for something a little more relaxed for our wedding music. From our initially emails with Kelly, to the help we were given picking songs, the goosebumps i got when walking up the aisle to Sweet 16 (which they learned for the day no problem) to the last song we danced back down the aisle to 'Happy Together,; These guys have been nothing short of perfection!!! I was so happy to have been able to have a quick few words with Kelly on the day and we will be raving about ye for a long time to come. All our love, Stacey and Eoin xxx

Keith and Siobhan, having just had our wedding in May at Waterford Castle, and what a fabulous day it was. After our evening meal Something Blue Acoustics set up in the Leinster room for an 8-10 performance. Starting with our first dance, by Elbow, which was superbly done, and until the end they had everyone up on their feet dancing or clapping along. Damien's exceptional guitar playing and Kelly's beautiful vocals filled the room and we danced our hearts out. All the guests commented on how enjoyable they were to listen and dance to, ageing from 20yrs to over 70yrs this was very pleasing to us. SBA seemed to really enjoy themselves too and everyone clapped vigorously after each song. Siobhan and I would highly recommend the talented Damien and Kelly for their ability to perform such a variety of songs so professionally. Made our day!

Couldn't recommend these guys enough! Very professional and always on hand to answer any questions we had. Kelly learned a new song for my bride to enter the church to and there wasn't a dry eye in the church, including my own! She even sent on a sample recording a day or two beforehand. They rocked the drinks reception too with more upbeat tunes. Kelly's voice is beautiful and Damien knows his way around a guitar. Book these guys, you won't regret it.
Review by
Kelly and Damian are not only so talented at what they do but are also so friendly and easy to get along with. Which is what all couples need in the lead up to their big day. They played a range of songs to suit everyone. I had so many guests telling me they really enjoyed listening to them. Outstanding. Thanks guys Natalie & Fin xx

Something blue acoustic played for our church ceremony and our drinks reception the music was fantastic and Kelly learned songs especially for us and it was perfect. I could not recommend them highly enough and Kelly was so lovely to deal with . A very happy bride Kathy
Review by
Something Blue Acoustics sang at our wedding ceremony and our drinks reception and can only be described as FABULOUS! Everyone was raving about Kelly's beautiful voice and they really added to our ceremony. My only regret is that we didn't get to enjoy them at the drinks reception as photo duty kept us away but going by everyone else's reaction, they went down brilliantly and people loved their sound. I had lots of emails to Kelly in the lead-up to the day itself about song choices and she always responded straight-away with a friendly, helpful attitude! And they even performed two songs that we requested not in their original set list! So please do yourself a favour a book this wonderful duo for your big day, you will not be disappointed
Review by
We had the pleasure of having Kelly & Damien play and sing for our wedding ceremony recently and we are so happy we choose them, they were so amazing from the very first moment I emailed them with quick responses and nothing ever been any trouble, so flexible with songs and great song suggestions and keen to learn new songs for us, it made our wedding music planning so relaxed and I was so confident I knew I had nothing to worry about planning our wedding from Australia and just could not wait to hear them sing at the church! They were so friendly and beautiful on the day also and just so happy for us! I cannot recommend Kelly & Damien highly enough, our guests all commented on them afterwards and how beautiful they sounded and performed, it made us so happy and it was so personal for us! Music at your wedding is so important and would recommend any couples looking to look no further you will not be disappointed I can promise you that! Thank you so much Kelly & Damien I just wish we could do it all again so we could have you sing and play for us all over again, We wish you both all the best in your future and hope we get to meet you again! xxx

Kelly and Damien from Something Blue Acoustics are an absolute pleasure to deal with. Their quirky, mellow, chilled out vibe was exactly what we wanted for our wedding BBQ. Kelly was a dream to deal with and always responded to any emails & messages promptly. They were very open to learning songs and even played our favourite Prince song - which isn't necessarily a wedding song! We can not recommend them enough and they really played a massive part in making our day so special. All our guests complimented them and everyone seemed to enjoy their music as much as we did. Thank you both so much. We really hope we see you both again soon.

I cannot rate Something Blue highly enough, what incredible musicians and wonderful people. From my first email to Kelly I know I had found the perfect people to perform at our wedding ceremony, she was so lovely and friendly that I felt totally at ease with a big decision, as music was one of our main priorities for the day. We had multiple email consults as I kept thinking of new songs to include in the ceremony. Nothing was ever too much trouble for Kelly and Damien, even when we asked them to learn several new songs and to create a mash up of two very different songs for my entrance! So many of our guests commented on how wonderful the music was, how beautiful Kelly's voice was, and how unique the song interpretations were. I cannot recommend these two highly enough and feel so lucky that they were part of our wedding! They were both so lovely on the day too, congratulating us with hugs and smiles. Absolutely wonderful thank you!!
Review by
Kelly & Damien were fantastic from the moment we enquired about availability, through to being flexible on music choices and practical suggestions. We loved their versions of our favourite songs played for our ceremony and they created a fantastic atmosphere at our pre-dinner reception. Our guests all loved them too. So entertaining and great to deal with.
Review by
If I was doing my wedding over the first thing I would do is book Kelly and Damien! They played a 2 hour set for our summer bbq wedding and were perfect from start to finish. Kellys voice is absolutely beautiful and loads of our guests commented on the music. From the first time I emailed Kelly I felt as if I was texting a friend. She was so helpful and nothing was ever a problem, which made a huge difference to my stress levels!! They were incredibly reasonable compared to some of the quotes we got but I honestly would have paid double for the performance and service we received. Thank you both so so much!

One of the best choices we ever made for our wedding was to book Kelly and Damien from Something Blue Acoustics. From the second myself and my new hubby heard them we knew they we're perfect for us. We really loved their mellow relaxed vibes as well as their extensive song repertoire. They have a brillant mix of everything and anything going. I particulary loved their traditional Irish songs. Lots of my guests have commented since on how amazing Kelly's vocals were for the song "She moved through the fair". Kelly was so understanding, creative, easy going and absolutely amazing to deal with. She even put me at ease and helped me build up the confidence to sing two songs at the cermony myself. My only regret is not getting to spend much time listening to them at the drinks reception due to getting photos. My guests told me they were fab. I would highly reccomend Something Blue Acoustics to anyone. They really helped make our day perfect. Thanks again guys xxx

Not only were we lucky with the weather for our ceremony in Castle Leslie, but also the performers we chose for that magical day - Something Blue. Kelly and Damien gave such marvellous renditions of the songs we had picked out, setting the tone for a day that proved to be everything we had wished for. They were so professional on the lead up to our wedding, prompt in response and accommodating with our musical choices - some of which, we'd say, were not the easiest to perform. We could not recommend them enough. Thank you Kelly and Damien.
Review by
What can I say Kelly and Damien where just simply amazing, they played for our wedding the 5th of August. From day one they were just great to deal with. Myself and my new hubby couldn't have picked a better people to help celebrate our wedding. I would highly recommend to anyone Thanks guys
Review by
Kelly and Damien played at our wedding in Waterford on 29-7-17. They were fantastic! So many of our guests are still talking about them, how good they were. From the first time I contacted Kelly she emailed back straight away each time, and she helped me with my songs! We are so happy we chose Kelly and Damien and would highly recommend them for your big day! Thank you so much guys , Orla and Gary xx

Kelly and Damien played at our wedding in the Theatre Royal Waterford on 7th July. They were nothing short of amazing. From the very 1st communication I had with Something Blue we felt they were the right up our street. They were quick to respond to emails and also helped us out with songs to play as both of us (bride and groom) would have completely different taste. On the day Kelly and Damien were just amazing . They looked they part and Kelly sang beautifully. It was one of the highlights of the day. All our guests commented on how good they were and how they kept their composure even with Super Heros there :-))). Thanks again for everything we wish ye all the success in the world.

What can we possibly say but thank you thank you thank you to Kelly and Damien for making our wedding so special. We couldn't have asked for better musicians. Kelly your voice is an absolute dream and Damien you are a guitar hero. We had so many compliments about ye afterwards and everyone was blown away by the music. From day one Kelly was professional and so easy to deal with and happy to help us in any way possible. We are so grateful and so glad we chose Something Blue Acoustics for our wedding. Thank you both so much.!!

I couldn't have asked for better music to accompany my ceremony! Kelly's voice is really beautiful and together with Damien's guitar accompaniment it was exactly what I had imagined for my wedding day. Kelly and Damien were also extremely professional and helpful in the lead up to the wedding. Kelly provided a list of over a hundred suggestions for our music, and also took the time to help me understand when and where in the ceremony we could include music. Our parents and guests were very impressed with Kelly and Damien and we could not have made a better choice! Highly recommended!

We were so delighted that we booked Kelly and Damien for our garden wedding last month. Kelly was a real pleasure to liaise with in advance of our wedding, she really helped with the song selection and made the process very straight forward. Many of our guests commented on how fantastic the music was during our drinks reception. The songs they selected were perfectly suited to the sunny day we had. Thanks so much to you both!
Review by
Kelly and Damien played the music for both our ceremony and drinks reception and I cannot say enough good things about them. They had a brilliant selection of songs that even suited our slightly eclectic musical taste!They were wonderful to deal with and the amount of people who commented about the quality of the music afterwards spoke volumes. They played a big part in making our wedding day so special and memorable and I can't recommend them enough. Thank you so much guys!!
Review by
I had Damien & Kelly for our wedding 2 weeks ago and they were absolutely fantastic! Everyone commented on how good they were and asked about them! They traveled from Waterford to Mulranny in Mayo for our wedding (which is a massive drive) but we couldn't find another group that suited our musical taste as well. They performed in both the church and the drinks reception (across the road). Also, Kelly spotted a big typo in my mass booklet which two priests didn't notice so that was very helpful! I would definitely recommend them as they really made the mass very personnel for us.
Review by
Damien and Kelly were fantastic. They were a joy to work with both in the run up to our wedding and on the day of. They were so helpful with picking and music and nothing was too much trouble. Tonnes of our guests remarked on how great the music was. We would have no hesitation in recommending them to friends and family. We'd be eager to book them for future any family events or celebrations. Thank you both so much!!

Kelly and Damien were absolutely fantastic at our wedding. In advance they were very responsive to emails and a great help when choosing our ceremony music. So many people complimented them on the day. They helped to set a great atmosphere. I couldn't recommend them highly enough. Thanks guys!!

I still have goosebumps from Kelly's voice as I walked up the aisle. Very helpful a pleasure to deal with. Highly recommend them both.Damiens acoustics were fab.
Review by
Kelly and Damien were just brilliant! We had our ceremony outdoors and the atmosphere that they both added to it was just surreal - Kellys voice is so beautiful, you could hear a pin drop when she sang. All of our guests were raving about them during the drinks reception also and the variety of songs played!! Also I think most of our songs for the ceremony weren't even on the list that they provide and both Kelly and Damien never batted an eyelid at me proposing new songs - it was always hassle free and a real pleasure to organise! Thank you both so much xxx
Review by
Something blue acoustics played at both our ceremony & drinks reception and were absolutely brilliant for both! We received so many nice comments about them throughout the day. Their responsiveness & help coming up to the wedding was just brilliant also, we would highly recommend them to anyone!
Review by
Amazing duo! Created such a wonderful atmosphere in the church. Had a brilliant song list to choose from and were so helpful. So pleased we booked them to play at our ceremony.
Review by
Like all the previous reviewers, we could not recommend Kelly and Damien highly enough. If we are to be honest, the ceremony and reception music was not something we gave a huge amount of thought to (relative to other elements of the wedding) and we only happened across Something Blue Acoustics close enough to the date itself. How lucky we were - Kelly and Damien added massively to the whole occasion. They were just spot on really: mellow but entertaining, memorable but not mushy and a pleasure to deal with from start to finish. Our guests - and ourselves - loved them and we just hope now that some of our friends choose to get them on board for a future wedding we'll be at so we have the opportunity to enjoy their music once more.
Review by
Kelly and Damien are not only two superbly talented musicians, they are also two really lovely people. Their passion for what they do was evident from the first to the last note. They gave us a level of personal attention that we weren't expecting at all, responding to emails almost immediately and making suggestions about the layout of the music. Our guests raved about the music with many commenting about how well they tapped into the vibe we were going for. We could happily have listened to them play all evening. I can't recommend Kelly and Damien highly enough. Wonderful musicians, wonderful people!
Review by
Well all I can say Kelly and Damien were amazing all our guest raved about them and would have happily listened to them all night as well. They were so so good and helpful with the song choices for the ceremony and even managed to cover one of my favourite songs which I loved. Thank you so much for everything and will be recommending you highly to all our friends
Review by
Kelly and Damien were one of our favourite wedding vendors to deal with - everything was easy which is what you hope for when you're juggling so many things. From first contact to music on the day I don't have a single criticism to make. We've had so many compliments from our guests on the music and it set the tone for the day, I cannot recommend them highly enough. Kelly has a beautiful voice and an equally beautiful manner in how she speaks with you during planning and with her presence on the day. My husband spoke to me after the wedding and was thrilled with how warm and friendly Kelly was before the ceremony started. It totally put him at ease. Thanks for everything Kelly & Damien!
Review by
Kelly and Damien were amazing I can't recommend them highly enough. Kelly was an absolute dream to deal with, she was super efficient at getting back to all emails. On the day itself, they were outstanding, the perfect team! If you are thinking of booking Kelly and Damien definitely do they are awesome and really add something special to the entire day xxx

Thank you so much Kelly and Damien for providing our ceremony music in Greystones, Wicklow on Saturday March 11th. You were an absolute pleasure to deal with, so responsive and helpful! On the day you blew us away, the vocals were stunning and our guests commented how lovely it was. I wish we could do it all over again! Thank you so much!!! Tracy and Andrew Holmes xx

We booked Kelly and Damien for our ceremony and drinks reception for March 2nd in Faithlegg Hotel Waterford. Kelly was great to deal with from the beginning and responded to emails quickly and efficiently. I asked Kelly to sing a particular John Spillane song that i loved for our processional song. She sang it so beautifully and i really was impressed on the day. My Dad also forwarded it on to John himself and he too was chuffed. My only regret was not hearing really any of the songs at the drinks reception as i was busy getting photographs etc. Thanks so much Kelly & Damien for making our day so memorable xxxx
Review by
Something Blue acoustics played at our ceremony and drinks reception. I was very happy with level of contact and they were fantastic on the day. We got lots of feedback that our guests enjoyed the wonderful music. My only regret is that I was running around trying to talk to so many people that I didn't get to hear more of them myself.
Review by
From the moment I contacted Kelly I knew I had made the right choice for our wedding ceremony music. She was so easy to deal with, so helpful and made everything a breeze. My 10yr old niece also sang at the ceremony and understandably she was slightly nervous once she got to the church, Kelly & Damien allowed extra time for her to pratice and guided her through it! They were just brilliant. Kelly & Damien set the tone for the whole day, the music was just beautiful! Guests are still talking about them! I can't wait to hear our wedding video back to listen to them all over again!
Review by
Damien & Kelly were terrific on the day of our wedding, many guests remarked on the quality of their music, especially an a cappello version of Ag Chríost an Síol. They were lovely, and I cannot recommend them highly enough. Thank you, from Bríd & Matt ;)
Review by
My husband and I bounched back and fourth with ideas for our ceremony music. When we came across something Blue ACoustics we both knew they'd be perfect for us. From the 1st email Kelly was fantastic. Nothing was a problem for them. I even asked if they would do a song which wasn't on their playlist and without any push back Kelly said it would be fine. On the day of the wedding all our guest said how beautiful Kelly's voice is and how well they played. Honestly everyone loved them. It was so nice looking over during the ceremony and seeing them both smiling and enjoying themselves. I would honestly recommend something blue to anyone getting married. Thank you for everything xxx
Review by
Kelly and Damien absolutely made our ceremony!! They were that good people who were sitting at the bag of the Chapel in Ballybeg thought it was a tape it was that polished!! They were really flexible around song choices and even helped us with music placement throughout the ceremony. My Pug was the ring bearer on the day and even he couldn't help joining in with the songs. I would recommend them to anyone with an upcoming wedding. Thanks again guys
Review by
From the first time we heard Kelly and Damien's music we knew they would be perfect for our rustic wedding in Ballymagarvey. They suited our style of music and the vision we were looking for on the day. We spoke via Skype and always felt that both Kelly and Damien, wanted to make our day special. We selected all the songs from their extensive play list but they were happy to learn and play any other songs we wanted. They played the songs exactly as we wanted but it was so personal and we loved the acoustic style.

We booked Kelly and Damien for our wedding ceremony and cocktail in Kenmare, and couldn't have been happier with our choice. We planned our wedding from France, so were a bit nervous about booking musicians we had never heard, but we have no regrets. From the beginning, Kelly was an absolute pleasure to work with - she responded quickly to emails, providing a lot of helpful advice as we tried to figure out timings and music selections. Most importantly, the music and singing on the day was just beautiful. Kelly has such a beautiful voice, and paired with Damien and his guitar, and an impressive repertoire, they brought a wonderful, romantic atmosphere to our party. Our guests are still singing their praises weeks later! If only we could do it all over again. Thank you so much Kelly and Damien!
Review by
Kelly and Damien were amazing!! True professionals. We planned our wedding in Cork all the way from Los Angeles and they were so easy to work with. We though they sounded great in the recordings online but were even better in person! They played for both our ceremony and cocktail reception and our guests were blown away.
Review by
We had Something Blue Acoustics play the day after our wedding and they were truly fantastic. Their music provided a lovely backdrop to the evening, creating the perfect relaxed atmosphere. As we live out of the country, my brother organised the music for us and found Kelly really easy to deal with and quick to respond to his questions/emails. Thanks guys and best wishes for the future!
Review by
Damien and Kelly recently played at my ceremony and drinks reception in County Derry. From the first email they were fantastic. Kelly never said no to any of my requests, made me feel at ease as the day crept up and I started to worry about logistics, and the music was absolutely beautiful. So many people commented on it and asked where I had found them. It made our ceremony so special to be able to have music we loved.
Review by
Kelly and Damien sang at our small church wedding and they were perfect. Kelly gave us a great song list to choose from and helped us put the right songs in the right places. The music was gorgeous and it gave us a great start to the day. I would highly recommend them for any type of party or celebration .
Review by
Kelly and Damien played our reception music. They are excellent! Very professional, huge list of songs in their collection and even learned our favourite song to play for us. We had great weather on the day, they played their music on the lawn of the hotel and our guests are still raving about the great atmosphere that Something Blue Acoustics created. Can't recommend them enough.
Review by
Damien and Kelly did an amazing job :) If you want real musicians with a relaxed vibe these are your guys. They have a great song list and such a nice sound. They are quick to respond to any questions you may have and are will to learn any songs that you might want on your big day which is great :) Thanks so much guys Sabrina & David

We couldn’t recommend Kelly and Damien enough. They were so professional and lovely to deal with. The music was incredible. Kelly worked with us to select the church music. They played a nice selection for the drinks reception. They have a massive repertoire of cover songs and will learn new songs also. We were fortunate to have a hot, sunny wedding day. The music sounded great in the sun by the sea. Our guests were raving about it. Go on and book Something blue now…. You won’t regret it.
Review by
We had Something Blue Acoustics play in the evening at our small wedding. We honestly couldn't praise them enough! Kelly and Damien were wonderfully personable and friendly. Damien's guitar playing sounded great and Kelly's voice was amazing in each of the songs. They provided a list of songs for us to either choose from, or choose specific ones we didn't want, and offered to learn a song should we want that. Everyone at the wedding loved them, from 16 to 84! I'd recommend Something Blue Acoustic to anyone looking for a special touch to their wedding! Thanks again, Kelly and Damien!
Review by
We were able to have all our favourite songs as part of our ceremony because of Kelly and Damien! So professional and talented, they were a wonderful part of our big day. I would absolutely recommend Somethinh Blue to any bride to be!

From the moment we got in touch with Kelly and Damien of Something Blue Acoustics we knew we had made the right choice. Not only were they quick to reply to any emails we sent them but they also had an extensive array of songs to choose from both from modern day songs and timeless classics. They even learned a special "rock" song that wasnt on their list and made it there own and it sounded even better. All of our guests commented on how wonderful they were and how Kelly's wonderful voice mixed with Damien's guitar was perfect for the ceremony and kept our guests singing and joining in during the drinks reception. Not only are these guys brilliant at what they do, they are also amazing people who will help you with any queries or worries you have about music for your ceremony. Believe me though, if you book Something Blue Acoustics you will have one less thing to worry about on your day as these guys take all the stress away and will have you relaxed with their wonderful music. Superb band and superb people to deal with.

I cannot recommend Something Blue highly enough. Kelly has an amazing voice and is complimented perfectly by Damien on guitar. These pair are true professionals and an absolute pleasure to deal with. Every email was answered promptly and cheerfully by Kelly who was so helpful in selection of songs for the church and organisation of our special day. A wonderful pair! Thanks so much Kelly and Damien :)
Review by
I couldn't thank Damien and Kelly enough for making our day as special as they did. From the very start, Kelly was so attentive, and answered every question and query so quickly, offering great options when I was confusing myself! The music during the ceremony was just beautiful, something so many people commented on. My only negative comment in any way, was that we did get to hear them as we had to go get photographs taken, all I wanted to do was get back and listen and relax!! All our guests loved the music during the drinks reception, so relaxed with the perfect mix of old and new! Thank you guys so much, you added something extremely special to our special day!! :) xx
Review by
These guys are not only professional, quick to reply and fantastic at what they do - but they are simply a lovely lovely couple to have around on your wedding day. Kelly replied to us consistently within hours or minutes (!) of sending emails, they learned any song we requested and sang simply beautifully on the day. The ceremony at my wedding was my absolute favorite part of the day and I loved having the time to sit quietly and listed to this gorgeous music. I couldn't recommend this duet highly enough. My only regret after the ceremony was that I didn't get more time to enjoy their beautiful music during our champagne reception as I was running about getting photos taken and greeting guests - I however heard countless reports from guests of how fantastic they were. Thank you Something Blue Acoustics for being such a lovely part of our special day :)

When we were looking for musicians for our wedding ceremony, a friend put us in touch with Kelly and Damien, and I couldn't recommend them highly enough. From our initial contact, Kelly was really helpful and was always very quick to respond to our emails. She gave plenty of advice on which songs worked best for different parts of the ceremony especially when we were struggling to come up with a suitable hymn for the psalm. The music on the day was fantastic - Kelly has a beautiful voice and it really works well alongside her husband Damien on the guitar. We received many compliments afterwards from our guests and I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Something Blue to other couples for their wedding day.
Review by
We couldn't have asked for more from Kelly & Damien, their responsiveness was amazing with all the stresses of organising the big day they made everything work really easily and even fitted a practice in just before the wedding with a friend so she could sing one song for us. As for the quality of their musi , it was flawless. Their song choices are perfect for a non-cheesy wedding and they were full of smiles all day and went down a treat. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend!
Review by
If we could have given more than 5 stars, we definitely would have. Finding Kelly and Damien to perform at our wedding was an absolute blessing. From the very first contact right through to the end, we never had a single doubt in our minds that we had chosen well. We hadn't given the music any consideration until one night in late January. From the very first contact, Kelly was so reassuring and instantly made us feel at ease. On the day, Kelly and Damien's passion came through in abundance, and the number of compliments we received from guests was inspiring; simply everyone loved them. Their performance of our entrance song brought tears to many eyes. Afterwards, in the bar, they continued to impress our guests with their melodic tones and their own special takes on some great classics. Their repetoire is so extensive, they managed to find something that suited guests of all ages. For anyone looking for music for their wedding, we have no hesitation in recommending Something Blue Acoustics. So many people are telling us that our wedding was the best they have ever attended, and we have absolutely no doubt in our minds that the music played a huge part in that. Thanks so much guys for helping to make the day all the more special with your beautiful sounds :-) xxx

For a moment my partner and I stood outside the ceremony room and listened to the first joyous chords of our song. Then he took my hand and we started to walk, with our hearts feeling full to bursting... So began the soundtrack to the most wonderful, emotional and romantic day! We were so so lucky to have found Kelly and Damien. Kelly's gorgeous voice and Damien's mellifluous guitar combine to make the most beautiful music. And they are just the loveliest people too. Kelly made the planning part so easy and fun, with great guidance to help everything flow smoothly. I wanted something a little bit retro, with a little bit of a modern vibe as well, and Something Blue Acoustics was the perfect fit. They crafted the most personal and unique sound for us, happily adding some of our favourite songs to their impressive repertoire. Lots of people asked about if the couple were friends of ours, I think it was because they put so much love into their music it sounds personal. These two clearly love what they do, and their passion comes across. Spellbinding, we loved every minute. Thank you!

Thank you to both Kelly and Damian for their contribution on our wedding day. From the moment we first spoke with them they were very open, easy going and accommodating. On the day itself they were both very relaxed, friendly and played their songs with such passion and conviction. All of our guests really enjoyed their music and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. Thank you guys!

We are delighted that we were lucky enough to book Kelly and Damien for our big day. In the lead up to the day, Kelly and Damien were hugely helpful with song selection, and giving us advice on how best to fit the music into the ceremony. Although we had a couple of unusual song selections, Kelly and Damien were more than happy to oblige, and performed them beautifully. Definitely a five star review and would absolutely recommend Something Blue Acoustics to anyone.

I researched high and low for a wedding acoustic duo as I wanted our wedding to be quite relaxed. I came across Something Blue on a random search. I listened to their audio video's on the their website and contacted Kelly. From the first initial contact I knew they were the ones that will help me walk up the aisle to one of our favourite songs. The ceremony was a joy and we also asked Damien and Kelly to sing at our reception drinks. Kelly has a beautiful voice and sings a lot of old classics. Our guests have complimented on how amazing they were and loved the music. Kelly will literally help you with anything and guide you through the music for the ceremony. As we live away from home we haven't attended too many weddings so she made the whole process so easy and enjoyable for us. On behalf of myself and my husband we would highly recommend Damien and Kelly. Honestly just book them, you will not be disappointed! Thank you so much guys :)

Something Blue Acoustics - just amazing! I could listen to them all day long... I'm so delighted that I booked Kelly and Damien for our big day... From the first email I sent, they were so quick to respond and professional to deal with. I asked for specific songs and were very obliging to sing them for us. Everyone at our wedding were talking about the great music and were full of praise. I would have no problems recommending Something Blue Acoustics, they are just fantastic.

Something Blue Acoustics are an amazing duo, Kelly has such a unique tone to her voice and makes for very easy listening. They really added to the atmosphere in the church and enhanced the day entirely. We were so impressed with their extensive song catalogue we booked them for the drinks reception too. Kelly was lovely to deal with and was so friendly and warm. We had friends sing as part of the church and Kelly and Damien were brilliant working with them. We were delighted to have them play for us and wouldn't hesitate in recommending them. Thanks again and best wishes to you both x

I can't recommend Kelly and Damien highly enough. Any questions I had were always answered quickly and they were a great help to a very indecisive bride. They were wonderful to work with and on the day they were there early and set up ready to go with no fuss. Everyone on the day was full of praise for them and their beautiful sound and professionalism, from the guests to the venue organiser (it was a civil ceremony). A month later we are still hearing from guests about how they were one of the highlights of the day. If you choose to go with Something Blue Acoustic you won't be disappointed as the will add a wonderful, intimate and warm element to your special day.

We were very fortunate to have Kelly and Damian play at our wedding recently in Tipperary. I originally found them through the weddingsonline website, and went to view them at another wedding where I was blown away by not just their musical talents, but the different song options they had which was extremely important to us! On the day of our wedding, they played and sang beautifully and more than one guest commented to us on the day how amazing they had found the music. My husband has a little soft spot for rock music, and was more than impressed with the gorgeous version of Metallica's Nothing Else Matters that Damian played - even our priest liked it! They lifted our entire wedding ceremony with their music and we are so grateful to them! Fiona and Shane, 27th February 2016

Kelly and Damien from Something Blue Acoustics were amazing from the moment we first got in contact with them, the day of the wedding and even following up with us afterwords. Damien is amazing on the guitar and Kelly's voice is beautiful and so unique..the guests at our wedding couldn't praise them enough. We would not hesitate in recommending Something Blue Acoustics to future brides and grooms as they are just brilliant at what they do. Thanks again, Karen & Damian..xxx

Damien and Kelly are excellent at what they do and we cannot recommend them enough. They were so helpful to deal with and lovely to have around on the day. They learned off a number of songs for us that were not on the original playlist. We recieved nothing but compliments about their music on the day.

We were delighted to have Kelly and Damien as part of our wedding ceremony. Kelly was a dream to work with in regards to song choice and flexibility, they were our Something Blue in regards to something old, something new, something borrowed, something Blue. A fantastic couple and great entainers. I would highly recommend them to any future bride, distance is no object to them as they travelled to Cavan for us.

Found something blue acoustics online and loved there sound. Kelly and Damien couldn't have been more helpful everything from song choices to helping me match the songs to the parts of the ceremony. I loved there sound on the church and my guests are still commenting on how good the church music was. Thank you again guys.

Kelly and Damien were so professional and easy to deal with, and so quick in replying to any queries we had. They sounded beautiful and made the atmosphere in our ceremony so intimate and warm. We would have absolutely no hesitations in recommending them to anybody! Brilliant .

Kelly & Damien were just super from start to finish! We had a few initial phone calls just to talk about our ceremony & what we wanted & from the get go my mind was totally at ease that they would do a great job. On the eve & day of our wedding there was a hurricane (remember Desmond?!?) so they left at 6.30am to make sure they would definitely make it for our 2pm wedding in Donegal, serious dedication! Kelly's voice moved both my husband & I to tears, it's so beautiful & many of our guests on the day & subsequently commented on how lovely the music was. Kelly & Damien even took the time to learn two songs that are particularly special to us & sung them during our ceremony. Kelly & Damien were so warm friendly & professional, an absolute pleasure to work with & I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them, I couldn't have asked for better.

We would highly recommend Kelly and Damien of Something Blue Acoustics.. they were absolutely fantastic at our wedding. From the start, Kelly was a pleasure to deal with .. so friendly and bubbly, quick to respond to any emails or suggestions, she gave great advice on different songs and was really enthusiastic about learning all of the new songs that we requested. Kelly has a gorgeous and unique voice that works so well with such a range of songs making Something Blue the perfect choice for us. To show how dedicated they were, Kelly and Damien also waded through floods to get to and from the church and then performed while watching the floodwaters continue to rise! Thanks a million guys for helping to make it a fantastic day!

There are no words that can do Kelly and Damien justice. Their talent and professionalism knows no bounds. From the very first email with Kelly we knew they where right for our day. Nothing was to much trouble, between song suggestions and taking on new songs to learn they where happy to do it. We cannot recommend Something Blue Acoustics any higher. Thank you both for being part of our special day. You guys set a new standard for ceremony music.

We wholeheartedly recommend Kelly and Damien of "Something Blue Acoustics". From the initial point of contact we knew we had struck gold. Kelly and Damien listened, respected and willing accepted our music programme when others balked. Communication was prompt and stress-free from start to finish. We felt privileged that our something blue was "Something Blue Acoustics".

Kelly and Damien were a pleasure to deal with from start to finish. Kelly helped me every step of the way with picking songs and giving me advice on what would work best! She was so quick to reply to emails which made the process all the more easy. On the day we had so many compliments from our guests and the staff of the venue about the music. We used Kelly and Damien for the church and drinks reception and we couldn't recommend them more!

We were absolutely delighted with Something Blue Acoustics!!! We feel so blessed to have found this amazingly talented musical duo. Firstly, they sound fantastic! Damien is an incredibly skilled guitarist and Kelly's voice is just so pure and beautiful and unique. My husband is a musician and, honestly, he has very high expectations re: live music. (as anyone should when hiring such important vendors for such a special event) My expectations were high too and Something Blue met them and succeeded them. So they have talent which is the main thing you are looking for...but an added bonus while planning such a special happy event is that Kelly & Damien are also two of the nicest people you will ever meet. They were easy to interact with and prompt with responses. They showed up with big smiles on the day of our wedding and were extremely professional. Our guests (and us!) are still talking about how much they loved Something Blue. We asked Damien to provide acoustic guitar for our ceremony (so dreamy!) and then had Kelly sing while Damien played for our cocktail reception. This all took place outdoors on the grounds of Trudder Lodge and it sounded so beautiful. Later on, after dinner, Kelly and Damien stuck around to perform our first song so my husband and I could have our first dance under a beautiful tree in the back garden. We could not be more pleased with Something Blue. I highly encourage you to hire them...you will be very happy you did!

We would definitely recommend Something Blue Acoustics - Kelly and Damien were excellent and so easy to work with. Damien is a great guitarist and Kelly's voice is fab. We had listened to them online and were impressed but they were even better live in the Church. A number of the guests commented on the great music and from a not very musical family...believe me this was high praise, they usually wouldn't even notice!!! We found Kelly and Damien very helpful with song ideas and suggestions for what would work for different parts of the ceremony. We wish you both every success in the future and encourage people to have a listen and book. Thank you for being part of our day.

Super helpful with selecting music and giving ideas for a religious ceremony, helping with song placement and suggestions. Took on a new song and performed it beautifully. Very easy to deal with and kept the whole process stress free, really accommodating to requests.
