Peter was on time and very courteous, considerate and an excellent piper! I have been to Scotland 🏴 tattoo and he was as grand as any of the pipers there. Well groomed clean brilliant outfit . Friendly to all my guests. Just a super guy!!! This man should be at the top of your list !!!

PeterPiper was excellent when he played at my parents burial on Friday. I knew I wanted a Piper for my Father, he was of Scotch/Irish decent, and loved the Pipes. PeterPiper was professional, he listened to what I wanted and also helped with arranging when to play each selection. Thank you PeterPiper for helping make my parents eternal resting place easier.

Pete
Peter played at our daughters wedding ceremony. From the very first conversation with Peter, I felt very confident in hiring him. He was so professional, and professionally dressed.
His personality also, showed how much he enjoyed his career. I highly recommend him, and certainly will use him again in the future.

I’m glad everything worked out well.
I booked Pete for my best friends funeral, because I was unable to attend due to Covid. He was so kind to take a pic of my friends Memorial prayer card and send it to me. Thoughtful. I am beyond words.

It was the night before my mothers funeral and I decided to try and book a piper
I couldn’t believe I got a piper for 12 pm the night before at 9pm
Peter was there waiting at the church steps as we were carrying my mom out
It was wonderful
Thank you so much

Thank you Mark for the very kind words!! I’m sorry I didn’t make it back to the repast.... hope all went well!
I had reached out, last minute, to book a bagpipe player for my mom's funeral. I could not have been more thrilled, or asked for anything more than he delivered. He was kind, prompt, professional, dressed impeccably in an awesome kilt, and his music was hauntingly beautiful. by far the best thing at my mom's funeral. As an Irish Catholic, who loved bagpipes, my mom could not have been happier or more honored by his playing. and even though the event went over the time, and i offered to pay more, he kindly and generously brushed that away. Even the price he quoted initially was much less than i expected. on a scale of 1 to 100, he gets a 200 !!! for sure. !!!

Thank you for the extremely kind words!! I’m glad I was able to brighten the day a little....
Peter was pivotal to our funeral procession. He arrived early, coordinated with the priest, and did an exceptional job. The O'Toole family would highly recommend his services. A 5 star recommendation doesn't even come close to recognizing his assets.

PeterPiper did a wonderful job at the funeral. He was already set up before we arrived and performed the music requested. He made a dark day brighter with his professionalism.
