Alexander played my entrance song at my wedding ceremony as well as piping the arrival of guests and it made the event so special. He was professional and friendly and I would hire him again and recommend his services!

Booked for Other Event

Booked David Carril (Piper) for our Mum’s funeral on Friday where he played Scottish music before & after the service. David was dressed in tartan & his playing was superb. Even the Celebrant said he was the best piper that she had seen at a funeral service…..thank you again David 👏

Booked for Wedding

This was my husbands best man and his wife with Gary, he was so smart and as half my wedding was Irish they loved the piper being there. It made our day that little bit more special and i would highly recommend Gary to family and friends if they needed a piper.

Booked for Wedding

Ivan was fantastic he really made our day very special indeed. He met the Groom party and gave them a brilliant start to the day before piping the Bride through the streets of Rye to get married. There was a we also had the town crier to contend with but they played off each other perfectly. I would definately recommend Ivan, and I would certainly book him again for any future events

Booked for Celebration

Alan kept to his word and arrived earlier than planned to go over the arrangements. He played a great selection and everyone really enjoyed listening to him. Our Head Teacher was extremely thrilled with her ‘retirement surprise’ and Alan took time out not only to speak to her but to speak to the children and spent a great deal of time with the younger children in our nursery and he certainly entertained them. As a school we can not thank Alan enough for all that he done for us. He made the day that extra bit special. I would not hesitate in recommending Alan. Great prices, reliable and friendly. Thank you Alan.

Whatever you're celebrating, birthdays, anniversaries, family gatherings, leaving do’s, the sight of a Highland Piper in full dress is a great way to mark that special moment. I could play as your guests arrive or pipe the guests of honour to the cake cutting or presentation, or I can simply provide background music. I can arrange a surprise for your guests or maybe a particular piece of music is required that makes that special moment even more meaningful.
