A piper can really make a lovely finishing touch to your big day. 

The music and presence of a piper at your wedding creates a romantic atmosphere
for the Bride and Groom and a joyous impact on the wedding party
(especially if there are relatives from far away lands)!

The Marriage of Mike and Sheila

I can wear an outfit of your choice from the V.I.P. Piper Gallery, from traditional Scottish wear as shown opposite, or ancient ‘Braveheart’-style Scottish dress as shown below to suit each individual wedding.

Examples of times when a piper can play
during your special day are as follows:

THE SERVICE
Pipe guests into the Church, Register Office or Hotel / Venue. Play a special tune for the Bride from the bridal car/horse-drawn carriage to the venue. Pipe the Bride down the Aisle to a lovely haunting romantic Scottish/Irish air or a favourite tune of your choice. Play outside the wedding venue to greet the Newly Wed couple with some lively tunes! Entertain guests as photos are being taken.
Pipe the newly wed Husband and Wife to their awaiting car or carriage to the sound of the pipes fading away in the distance…..

The Marriage of Cathy & Robin 2001


 
THE RECEPTION
'This is my sister, Sharon, being piped in to the church for her wedding in Germany in the Eighties, by dad.'

Pipe guests into the Reception.
Pipe the married couple to the Top Table, where you will be greeted by all guests and a toast made to the piper and the Newly Weds! (At this point the piper leaves the Reception playing some brisk lively tunes to the cheering guests and to stir up a good party atmosphere for the day/evening ahead!)
If you wish, the piper can also be present during the cutting of the cake.
During the evening’s entertainment, a piper can pipe guests to the Buffet Table and play for 10 or 15 minutes while guests are being seated with their meal.
