Wedding’s / Commitment Service
The music of the Great highland bagpipe is more and more becoming popular at today's wedding services. The pipes lend a certain aire of royalty sure to please both you and your guests and will be long remembered. As with other types of church services, we strongly encourage checking with church clergy/organist/musician, to discuss your plans. I am happy to speak with any venue representatives if need be.

Combination of the above.
* Prolonged periods between ceremony and reception time are subject to negotiation.
* A Word about the Weather.- The Highland Bagpipe is a very versatile instrument. It is a woodwind that is influenced by such factors as humidity, heat and most negatively, the cold. We will always do our best to assure a high quality performance regardless of the weather, once temperatures approach freezing, out of doors performance becomes questionable. Certain changes in format may be necessary to provide service.
* On request, we can add additional pipes and drummers for an extra special performance. Prices to be negotiated.
