Wedding for our son---

She is magnificent in every way---thoughtful, and joyful and added so much to our son's wedding procession. And she stayed for our reception at our invitation and then participated in a family sing-a-long. Again, just one of the best!

Great last minute service!

The piper for our event dropped out last minute and Bonnie jumped in the week of! She was fantastic and every one enjoyed her bagpiping.

What to expect

Expect full Highland Dress, with formality adjusted to the event as appropriate. From the full Military style with feather bonnet and plaid, to button down dress shirt with vest, and almost anywhere between. Special requests for specific style will be accommodated as able.
The Great Highland Pipes are loud, and limited by note range in what tunes can be played. Please let me know any special tune requests, I will work to accommodate, but please be aware there are limitations.
Scottish Smallpipes are another option for your event if smaller or looking for background music. Similar to their larger louder cousin, the tunes are limited to the octave of available notes. These pipes are pitched to the modern 440Hz and pair well with other instruments.
