Booked for Wedding

Gary was very professional, he sounded great and was great to work with. We changed the set list a bit and he was able to accommodate that with great ease. He was a great addition to our wedding and we would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a piper!

Booked for Wedding

Ed was booked as a surprise for my husband on our wedding day and he did not disappoint! . He was also very accommodating at coming to play at 2 venues due to the pandemic when restrictions meant less numbers in church. Nothing was too much for him. He came and played me into church and also and during the signing of the register. He also played at our wedding blessing and he was exceptional ! there was not dry eye in the house . We can highly recommend Ed as one of the best thank you Michelle and Scott Lowman

Booked for Funeral

George came to play at my Wee Scottish Granny's funeral, it was so, so much more than we could have ever imagined it to have been. Gran was the centre of our world and we wanted her funeral to be everything that she deserved, it was just that and more! George was beyond incredible, he piped the hearse up to the crematorium and then piped her into the crematorium, he then stood at the front whilst we all walked in, performed half way through and at the end of the service. Her elderly brother who couldn't make the funeral was able to watch online and said he had never seen anything like it. He turned a really sad occasion into a really beautiful one instead. He was so professional, lovely and graceful. I just couldn't recommend him more. Thankyou so much George!
