Working with Barry was easy! He provided music selections which we greatly appreciated and made it easier for us. He was also able to source a pianist for us to accompany him, and she was also wonderful. Their music made our day feel incredibly lovely and intimate. Could not recommend him enough!

Barry and Eimear were both amazing. I first noticed Barry on a FB group for irish weddings and fell in love . Himself and Eimear travelled all the way to Carlow and literally made the ceremony. We just got our videos back and I cried listening to Barry's rendition of "The Prayer" honestly such amazing talent and I feel so lucky to have had Barry's angelic voice, violin and Eimears majestic harp as part of our day. You are missing out if you don't have Barry and Eimear at your wedding

Barry did such a fantastic job on our wedding music. We had so many comments from guests and even our wedding coordinator about him. His version of to build a home was a real show stopper. Really responsive and easy to communicate with. We feel really lucky to have booked him to perform for us. Excellent value for what he charged. Tried to attached a link to the video below. Thanks Barry

Barry played the violin for us at our elopement on the Cliffs of Moher. He made the moment even more magical. He was a delight to work with since day one. Very flexible and was completely open to learning a piece of Brazilian music that he had never heard before- and played it beautifully. This was a very special moment for us. I'd 100% recommend Barry.

My now wife and I were recommended Barry by our celebrant 3 months before our wedding. After listening to him from his Instagram we were immediately sold!
After being in contact with Barry, he recommended that we also get a harpist to compliment him on the violin and he was absolutely correct!
Him and Nora Casey performed some of the most beautiful music I have ever heard, filling the room with love. His music brought so much emotion! If anyone is looking for an amazing performer who is also the friendliest and amazing with communication, than Barry is the one!

We want to thank you for your incredible performance you gave at our wedding. Your music truly added a magical touch to our special day. The way the violin, the piano, and vocals blended together created such a beautiful and emotional atmosphere, and it was everything we had hoped for,we couldn't have asked for anything more.

Thank you once again for sharing your talent with us and making our wedding day unforgettable. We would highly recommend you to anyone looking for musicians who can bring something truly special to their event.

Wishing you all the best,

Barry sang at our wedding ceremony a few weeks ago. From the first email he was a pleasure to deal with and even learned a new song I wanted in the ceremony. He is very accommodating, responsive to emails and extremely talented. We were asked by many people after what his name was. I would recommend him to anyone. Thanks again Barry!!

We would highly recommend Barry to any couple wanting a singer for their ceremony. He was absolutely amazing at our wedding. Barry learned a new song for me to walk down the aisle the whole church was in awe of Barry. We have been asked so many times since our wedding about Barry.
Barry sang the prayer at communion and it was absolutely breath taking.
Barry was so professional in the lead up to the wedding and nothing was a problem for him. Just amazing!!!

We cannot thank Barry enough for how special he made our wedding ceremony. He created the exact relaxed, personal atmosphere that we wanted. From learning several new songs, dueting with our friend, and his communication from day one, we cannot thank express our gratitude enough. He also stunned the crowed with his version of The Prayer that will stay with us forever. Thank you Barry ❤️

Not only is Barry an incredible musician and vocalist, but he is such a kind person and went above and beyond to ensure that we had the sound we wanted for our wedding day.

I first heard Barry singing in Armada House last December for their Festive Afternoon Tea event. I was there with my two bridesmaids. To say we fan girled was an understatement. We were blown away by his voice and his amazing skill playing the piano, and as if that wasn’t enough, Barry later produced a violin and played beautiful Christmas carols. There is nothing this man can’t do.

I knew Barry would be amazing for our wedding music. Thankfully he had availability for our date. I also knew that I would like a female vocalist also, so Barry organised the wonderful Marie Therese to accompany him. I had one more request from Barry, would he be happy to accompany me singing a song during the wedding ceremony. Not only did Barry agree, he also drove from Galway to Limerick to practice with me. We arranged to meet at my bridesmaids house, had tea and chats and got to rehearsing.

The music was amazing on the day. Barry did a mixture of singing, piano and violin. With Therese, they arranged the music so beautifully on the day. We were blown away.

Barry was extremely prompt in responding to emails, which as anyone planning a wedding knows, is extremely important.

Another great thing about Barry is that he has an extensive repertoire of songs, a lot of which he has recorded on his Instagram page and he provides a written list of songs too, which was so helpful. Barry also learned a new song for our ceremony too.

Barry added so much to our wedding that we will never ever forget. Everyone was so complementary of the music afterwards. His kindness, generosity with his time and unbelievable talent will live long in the memory.

I would have no hesitation in recommending Barry for wedding ceremony music.

Barry is the epitome of professionalism. His manner and decorum was evident from the first point of contact. No ask was too much and all queries were replied to promptly. Fortunately for us Barry accepted the challenge of learning new music for our wedding which we were so happy with as it really portrayed us as a couple on our big day. His talent is endless and we are incredibly lucky and grateful we had the pleasure of sharing our special day with such a lovely person.

I cannot recommend Barry enough as a musician and also as a human you?d want involved on your wedding day. He was so kind and easy to work with: from an organized planning approach to learning a new mashup song for our ceremony. Our guests were gushing at his talent and warmth. Even the staff at Westport House approached me to pass their compliments on to him (particularly with the choice of Fields of Athenry on an Ireland rugby day ????). Thank for you helping to make our wedding day absolutely stunning and memorable!

Anyone thinking of booking Barry Caulfield for the wedding should definitely do so. He is extremely talented, engaging and charming. He will go to great lengths to make your wedding special and personal. He does what very few people allow you to do in the wedding industry and that is to inject your own touch/wishes to the ceremony. Barry played a beautiful rendition of the village of asdee on violin in memory of my mother who had passed on. It was stunning and so emotional and special. He also sang fall on.me by Andrea Bocelli it was a hauntingly beautiful version that led the congregation into a raputurious applause. Barry goes to great lenghts to make your wedding ceremony music special. It was by all accounts a stunning performance so thank you so much Barry for all that you do. You are a unique and beautiful talent and we really appreciate you!

Barry is an incredible musician. From our first contact with him, Barry made the process easy and relaxed, and was so helpful when we were choosing music. He also learnt a new song for us which we wanted at our ceremony and delivered it so beautifully on the day - there was never an issue with any request, he was so obliging. During the ceremony there was an unexpected pause and Barry started playing music spontaneously to fill the silence - it was so professional and amazing. From our initial communication with Barry to the day of the wedding he was so professional, helpful and knowledgeable. During the ceremony, Barry played violin, piano, and sang. Would absolutely recommend Barry - such an amazing musician and so special to have him as part of our ceremony. Thanks so so much!

What can I say about Barry, an absolute pleasure to deal with right from the first hello to his last goodbye on our wedding day. Barry performed for our wedding day in cavan Catherdal and also later on in crover house hotel. Barry voice is breath taking, his voice echoed beautifully throughout the church, everyone asked us about Barry and said how amazing he sounded and how it mad the wedding feel emotional but beautiful. I couldn't recommend Barry enough, couldn't of helped us out any better and any request we had no issue to deliver. Barry is an absolute gentleman and you will not be disappointed if you choose him. Thank you Barry for your amazing talents for our day

I booked Barry for our wedding ceremony in Killargue Church, Leitrim and we were just so happy with Barry I don't even feel words can explain. From initial contact he was so attentive, nice and professional. His ongoing communication was great and we felt secure that all would go smooth. He contacted me prior to the mass to discuss song options and his written information was so clear and informative. He has a great balance of giving ideas but also taking onboard what you want as well. That's just my feedback for the lead up but omg on the day just blew us and our guests away. He was absolutely fabulous! I love the music in a wedding mass and I was so looking forward to him playing our songs and it didn't disappoint! So many guests including our priest praised Barry. I would recommend Barry to anyone in a heartbeat. Thank you for making our mass so special

Barry was a pleasure to deal with from the very start. Out of all of the suppliers for the wedding he was the best to reply to any queries and nothing was a hassle for him. I asked him to learn a song for the church and he performed it brilliantly. His voice is absolutely stunning and a number of my guests enquired about him after the church. Thanks for everything Barry.

Myself and my husband had our wedding ceremony in a small church near athenry , Barry was exceptional, music filled that church and onto to the narrow streets outside. It was so beautiful. I really wanted to compliment Barry from us and all who attended on the day. Barry played my favourite Ed sheeran and it was amazing. Thank you Barry for making our day so special. Barry was accompanied by a truly talented singer collette lally. Thank you both so much for an uplifting beautiful performance. I would highly recommend for future weddings or special events.

I don't know where to start with this review as I have so many amazing things to say about Barry. Barry played the violin, the piano and sang at our wedding in the beautiful church in Doolin. He was a one man show on the day and did such an incredible job. When Barry sang the church fell silent, everyone was completely blown away by his amazing voice. He made our day so special and so moving. Our guests are still talking about how amazing the ceremony was.

We asked Barry to play violin during our ceremony at our wedding. I'm American and really wanted a particular style and ambiance, sort of Bridgerton vibes but slower with songs. Of course, I couldn't make things easy and pick songs off a ceremony list, I sent Barry the 4 or 5 songs I wanted and he NOT only learned the songs, he played them BETTER than the original artists. He's unbelievably talented. The music added such a profoundness to our ceremony, everyone was in tears. It was evocative and moving. We are so so grateful and can't recommend him highly enough!
