We hired Peter to perform during our wedding ceremony arrival and cocktail hour. He played the bagpipes as guests were arriving and walking in, then switched over to the fiddle while everyone was being seated. Peter is incredibly talented — the bagpipes sounded enchanting and really set the tone for the celebration, and his playing was upbeat, festive, and memorable. If you’re thinking about hiring Peter, do it. He was a fantastic addition to our wedding.
