Services
A selection of the services that I can offer are detailed below, but I will always try to suit my services to your own needs.
Please contact me to ask any questions at all, or to request a quote, or to just ask me how the sight and the sound of the great highland bagpipes can enhance your occasion.
Weddings: Your wedding is a very special occasion and the sight and sound of a genuine bagpiper in highland uniform on your big day would make it even more memorable. I can greet your guests as they arrive at the venue prior to the start of your wedding service. I can announce the arrival of the bride and the bridesmaids and I can entertain your friends and relatives after your wedding service has finished whilst photographs are being taken.
The price I charge to pipe at any wedding is dependent on the location of the venue and your piping requirements for the day. Please feel free to contact me to ask any questions or to request a quote. I am more than happy to take last minute bookings.
Burns Night suppers: No Burn's night supper or party is complete without a bagpiper to pipe in the haggis. (25th January). If you are having a get-together to celebrate the life and poetry of Robert Burns then what better way to celebrate than to have a bagpiper to welcome your guests and to pipe in the arrival of the haggis. Please feel free to contact me to request a price quote for a Burns Night bagpiper.
Parties & Anniversaries: On such occasions I can welcome your guests to the venue with a few tunes, or simply surprise a friend or relative with a few traditional Scottish favourites.
New Years' Eve: What better way to welcome in the near year. Having a bagpiper to pipe on New Year's Eve adds a true sense of occasion to any event.
Funerals: I can play at the service, church, crematorium or graveside.
"Thank you Matthew! Everyone was talking about it and many said it was the nicest funeral they have been to. Everyone was impressed with your playing and how smart you looked. I simply can't thank you enough for helping to give my father a worthy service. As an ex military man who loved the pipes I know he would have been so proud of your performance too. The funeral went much better than I expected it to and you exceeded all my expectations! Even the funeral director staff said it was a lovely service and wish more were like it. It was also very nice to meet you I will be eternally grateful to you. Thank you from all my family".
Other special events: Banquets, gala evenings, store openings, promotional or corporate events etc. Please feel free to contact me to see how I can enhance your day.
