Booked for Wedding

Kenny brought so much to our wedding day. We had an amazing day. Very responsive, went above and beyond to play everything we asked for and trekked halfway around Edinburgh for us. Top man. Top bagpiper. Highly recommend him to anyone. You won’t be disappointed!

David was great from the moment I booked him he was happy to play the songs I wanted. On the day, he done a fantastic job and everyone was pleased. He even stayed for longer than required! It was a nice touch to my wedding given I am part Scottish. I would highly recommend him for your event. Thank you David

Booked for Celebration

Andrew was PERFECT! The occasion was a baby naming and we asked him to arrive as a surprise for our guests, lead everyone through to the ceremony area, playing as we went, and then play again at the end, and then show the kids how bagpipes worked. Everything went like clockwork. He arrived on time, dressed to impress in full kilt and outfit, played all the tunes we wanted and made suggestions, and was friendly and kind. We highly recommend Andrew. Thank you so much!
