Ceilidh Band in New England

Hey everyone!

I'm hoping someone might help me - I'm getting married next summer (June 2015) in Portland, Maine, and am struggling to locate a ceilidh band in the area. Does anyone know of one? As a bit of backstory, my fiance is Scottish and many of our friends and family will be over from Scotland and of course it's not a Scottish wedding without a few traditional dances. We're very keen to include some Scotland inbetween the Maine touches... so ideally we're looking for a band  who can play Strip the Willow, Dashing White Sargeant, Gay Gordon's, etc, and might not mind finishing out with an Auld Lang Syne/I'm Gonna Be combo (as we had at a recent wedding in Glasgow that went down very well!), that would be ideal.

Any advice would be great, as I'm coming up a bit short so far...

Cheers,

Jackie

    You might have better luck posting this on your local boards, as the music boards are international but also very quiet.

    Thanks for the advice; I'll try a local forum, too. I didn't want to be too narrow in case I need to go out of state, but it seems my search was WAY too vague instead! :)

    Also, ask your FI's family to help out. My FI's aunt booked traditional Armenian musicians for us. I would have had NO idea where to look!
