It was very easy to give David a full 5 star ranking! From our initial contact with him through to his performance on our wedding day David was courteous and professional, we simply could not have asked for more from him. On the day itself his wonderful pipe playing, amazing full highland dress and warm personality made him a huge hit with our guests! We also really appreciated his going the extra mile with individual touches such as a Gaelic toast, Selkirk grace and even a greeting in Punjabi!! If you are looking for a piper for your wedding or other event we're confident you would never regret booking David.

"Hi. I would rank Julia higher than 5 if it were possible! She was superb. My daughter had the unusual request of asking if Country Road by John Denver could be played at the wedding on the bagpipes. Julia happily agreed that it was possible. She went to the trouble of recording and sending a clip for my daughter's approval. It was perfect! Julia arrived before everyone. Made friends with everyone and was certainly a hit. She performed more tunes than we initially requested and made suggestions of when and what would be good to play. I would most certainly recommend Julia to anyone and everyone. Thank you so much, our day was even more perfect than we ever imagined."

We had Callum for a small outdoor wedding. His communication in advance of the event was excellent. He is a skilled piper, showed up on time and ready, and was very accommodating to our impromptu organization and changes. He was ready to do what we requested and when things didn't go exactly as planned he adapted in the moment to make things work. On top of all of that, because of how events unfolded I ended up with about half an hour to hang out with him while waiting and found him to be pleasant company. For these reasons, I highly recommend him and I can not identify a single reason why someone would not be happy having chosen him for their event!
