Andrew Brian, Highland Wedding Bagpiper

Andrew was brilliant. All the guests loved him and were really impressed. We had great communication between Pop up heroes and Andrew on the build up to the big day. Andrew discussed music options prior with the bride and groom and gave us a choice of kilts. Very pleased with the service. Would definitely recommend.

We can’t thank Andrew enough . Good communication through out and he was fantastic . If you need a piper please use Andrew . I know if we need a piper in the future our first port of call will be Andrew . Thanks again Andrew .

We were all very happy it was a fantastic afternoon apart from the weather but we coped thank you

Andrew was fantastic from our first phone conversation he basically arranged everything,all we had to do is pick the songs and what colour tartan.
The day after my dads funeral my mum was receiving lots of phone calls to say how sad and wonderful the day was,and Andrew got a big mention in most of them conversations.

Andrew was absolutely amazing at my wedding from start to finish. He made my wedding day so much more special in memory of my grandad who was from Dundee. As soon as I heard him play me down from my room I was in tears but because it was so beautiful & gave me what I wanted, goosebumps up my arms & a feeling of having my grandad with me. He is the best priced around & he does not rush you. I was blown away by him along with my guests. Highly recommend.

Absolutely brilliant performance, I have loads of video footage but not photographs.
Mum was so surprised and delighted, made the day. We were all dancing at the other end of the patio. A few people have asked for contact as I posted footage on Facebook.
Thank you Andy Brian.

Andy was amazing I hired him for my nans funeral and I really can't fault him. He was in contact with the funeral directors and the priest to make sure everything I wanted was possible. I highly recommend

Amazing, very professional and great music! Worked with me to plan the day as it was for a surprise 70th birthday

Amazing bagpiper, will hire again.

Andrew was excellent, extremely professional and everyone at the wedding loved the sound of the bagpipes. Would 100% recommend for any occasion.

Andrew was fantastic! I booked him for my dad's suprise 60th. Everyone was thrilled especially my dad Gary. Andrew was great on the lead up to the event and was very attentive. Thank you very much. I will definitely be using you again. Zara

Andrew was professional from start to finish he kept in touch right up until the event. And Andrew piped us in to our event and played some medleys after wards and posed for photos and made it a very nice evening which everyone enjoyed. We will not hesitate to book Andrew again. FABULOUS!!!

From the first communication when booking online after reading his profile , which stood out compared to the others on the site, I was not disappointed , when we first spoke I didn’t have to say anything it’s like he read my mind and the situation to come, the songs I chose were met with professionalism,

After Andrew driving 4 hours down south for the funeral, we turned the corner and into the gates of the crematorium, Andrew was there like the lone piper with the sun shining down around him and his outstanding attire , he led the procession to the doors , his years of experience shown through, I wish to say I would love to see him again but of course under better circumstances,

Was absolutely fantastic he took the roof off lifted everyone’s spirits. Star of the party .

Brilliant booked night before turned up early waited till we wanted him to start very pleasant man would highly recommend him thank you Andrew

We can't thank Andy enough for playing at my Grandads funeral last week. When choosing somebody to book for the funeral it was the positive comments of Andy from other people that led us to booking him and we don't have a single regret. He followed up the quote request with a phonecall and explained everything, answering all the questions we had and he was so helpful and positive, his experience honestly shone through and we booked him the very next day. Andy was great with communications up to the day of the funeral and everything went as planned and smoothly too. Those attending the funeral also commented on how great the bagpiper was and what a special touch he had added to my Grandads send off. Andy was flexible in what music he could play as we asked for 2 Irish songs not on his playlist and he played them beautifully on the day. He was very reassuring about everything and we would definitely highly recommend him to any event you may be considering a bagpiper for, the professionalism was on point. Thanks again Andy for everything. Sammy & family x

Thank you so much for all the effort you put in to making my mum’s funeral so incredibly poignant. You really set the tone and lifted everything imposed by COVID restrictions. It would have been so much more difficult without you ❤️

Absolutely brilliant, would highly recommend was so sorry I couldn't thank him personally.

Andrew Brian - you really made our Aunts 90th by bringing a bit of Scotland to her! Many thanks, MB

Occasion cancelled but rebooked easily with our Piper. Thank you

Playing beautifully at my Dad's funeral - highly recommended

I booked Andy to play at my late husbands funeral this week. From my first enquiry he was professional and helpful at a very sad time for me and my family. He was in constant contact with me suggesting different songs that would be appropriate. I would not hesitate in recommending him.

Was a lovely touch to my dad's funeral service, with meaningful songs which were beautifully played. Thank you!

Andy made my dad's funeral. The bagpiping was sensational and he sent my dad off in style.

Andrew was superb at my mum's recent funeral. Due to covid restrictions we weren't allowed to have him play at the cemetery so he came to her house and led a procession from her home with the hearse. Then got in his car and went to the cemetery where he stood outside the cemetery gates and played. It was very emotional and his playing is second to none. We couldn't give her the send off this very special lady deserved but Andrew definitely helped us to commemorate her wonderful life. I would highly recommend Andrew.

Andrew was a lovely man and communication was great throughout, his arrival was prompt. We had a very special evening surprising a relative. Great price & superb skills on the pipes. Thank you Andrew! Well worth booking!

Very touching, beautiful bagpipes really recommend 100% .
Very pleasant guy, will use him again .
Thankyou
Maria & family.

My family and I booked Andrew to play at a family members funeral. He was outstanding!
Thankyou so much for a perfect performance, I’m sure our dad/grandad/husband would have been looking down with the biggest smile!

Andrew was very good at communicating. He contacted me to discuss a playlist and get details. He arrived early to check out the venue and kept our surprise right till he arrived on the drive already playing. It was fantastic! Our neighbour who is a musician said he was an excellent player. He was very reasonably priced and I would definitely recommend him.

He was very helpful and contacted me straight away. Andrew went through all the details and was there on time and did a good service.

Brilliant. Communication excellent from second i booked. Turned out immaculately and played perfectly. Highly Recommended.

Andy performed at my fathers funeral and was absolutely fantastic, a fitting tribute and just what my Dad requested. Excellent comms and an absolute pleasure to deal with.

Andrew was excellent. He communicated well before the event to discuss song options and the venue. He socially distanced at the venue and played beautifully. We requested Andrew for my father in laws 80th, and everyone was moved to tears. Andrew looked and sounded the part. We would highly recommend Andrew to anyone who wants a piper and would certainly use him again in the future.

Andrew was professional from the first call to turning up on the day of my Dads Funeral. What a guy waiting at the gates for the cars then piped my dad to the crem, then piped the committal. Then piped the guests out of the crem. Could not ask for more. Thank you Andy what a professional you were. Thanks from the family.

Just 100+% satisfied he made that special touch to a soldier.

Andrew was extremely professional and arranged with the funeral directors himself. His performance was exceptional. We all highly recommend him for any occasion. Truly remarkable.

Highly recommend Andrew for events and booking. Competitive pricing also.

Wow, Andrew was fantastic. I booked Andrew for a surprise Retirement party in our garden. He was on time, and he played lots of songs that he thought my husband would like. Everyone that was at our house cried. Such a talented guy. We will be booking him again 100 per cent. Thanks again Andrew.

Andrew played at the funeral of my uncle.
He was amazing.
So helpful when advising me on songs and when to play etc. Travelling a distance to be there, he was punctual and knew exactly what to do.
It was very moving.
Thank you Andrew.

Andy made our wedding anniversary celebration a very special day indeed. We were very moved hearing him play Highland Cathedral so beautifully as we had this at our wedding twenty two years ago. He communicated very well as soon as I made the booking and was very punctual. He looked incredibly smart and dapper and he played the bagpipe absolutely beautifully. It was just perfect. Would highly recommend and can’t wait to find another excuse to book him again.

Andrew is very professional, respectful and a great Piper. I would recommend His services without hesitation
Thank you Andrew

Andrew was excellent at my fathers funeral. Communicated throughout and helped me select the music

Andrew contacted me soon after I placed my request. His response was personal and friendly and he was able to play at short notice as requested.

Andy was fantastic! Easy to communicate with prior to our wedding, arrived on time in his full attire and played some wonderful tunes as the guests arrived at the church! He then piped me to the entrance of the church playing Highland Cathedral. All the guests loved it too. Thank you so much Andy!!

Fantastic piper, would highly recommend Andrew Paton for your event. he was friendly, helpful and professional, he looked and sounded the part, thank-you!

Andy is the National Piper for the Aden Veterans Association and we are proud to have him play and represent us. He is a great piper and a great guy and with Jen, his wife, is a happy and loving family man. Major Clive Candlin, National Vice Chairman, Aden Veterans Association.

"""At short Notice Andrew played the pipes at a veterans funeral. To say the family, friends and Veterans were overwhelmed was an understatement. Immaculately turned out and the music he played for the family of a late veteran was very apt and note perfect. I would highly recommend Pipe Major Andrew Paton for any event whether it be Funerals, Wedding, Events etc.. Absolutely outstanding....
Regards Deano"""
