Bagpiper Bill was a gem! I wanted to surprise my fiancé with live bagpipe music for our recessional. Bill was up to the task. He was very responsive, friendly, and was great about our scheme to keep his part a secret from everyone. I really appreciate his fair price for our specific needs. And when I suggested throwing in a little modern music in the middle of a traditional Scottish song for fun (and as an inside joke for us), he was totally on board. My in-laws loved getting their picture with him and he even let the toddler wear his hat. I would highly recommend Bagpiper Bill for your special day!

From the first call to waving him goodbye after his amazing performance, Bagpiper Bill was everythjng I wanted and more! I reached out to Bill a few months ago when I was planning my wedding. I wanted to surprise my Fiancé with a few songs. Bill was easy to talk to, professional, gave great suggestions, and was flexible with his time, and my budget. The surprise went off without a hitch. His songs were so fun that we started to dance a jig and all my guests joined in! Absolutely one of my favorite memories of the day. Look no further folks, he’s the real deal and then some. Thanks again Bill! -Rachel Norris
