…the sound of your pipes filled me with joy as we walked out of St.Paul’s…you looked fantastic and certainly entertained us, our guests and the tourists. Priceless memories, made ever so exciting by your presence.

Thank you for providing the most magical moment of the wedding. So many people have said it was one of the loveliest weddings they had been to. Thank you for doing it all so beautifully". (A surprise wedding gift to the bride & groom).

Mr & Mrs G, Swallowfield, Berkshire
We would just like to say 'Thank you so much' for making our wedding day so special! Everyone was really surprised that you were there to play us out of church and your bagpipe music was beautiful and so fitting to our special day. It was definitely one of the highlights to our day as it gave me goose bumps when I turned around and saw you standing in front of us. Everyone thought you were great! If we ever have another family celebration we will not hesitate to contact you to play for us, and that includes recommending your services to others!

Maxin & Mark, Braintree Essex
Just to say thank-you so much for helping to make our day truly wonderful. Your careful planning made the surprise for my husband completely unexpected and the impact was overwhelming. We are still receiving comments about you from wedding guests three weeks after the event (all good I hasten to add). The music was beautiful and you looked spectacular. Thank-you so much again, we feel honoured to have had you as part of our special day.

R.F. Northfleet, Kent
Well done Peter… you were all brilliant yesterday, Maggie loved it and told everyone on the day - "I am so very happy, I cannot begin to tell you how happy I am." (This was a Mini Band surprise Maggie at her 80th Birthday Party).

Mrs H, Leatherhead, Surrey
You brought a very dear wish into reality for us as my mother loved Scotland and your playing for her seemed such a fitting tribute. A number of our friends and relatives told us how much they enjoyed listening to the pipe music and how very fitting they thought your choice of music. We found the music both comforting and uplifting. With our heartfelt thanks.

Leading Chorister St.A Church, Surrey
I know I should not say this on such a sad day, but we all thoroughly enjoyed your performance.

Dr S, Worcester Park, Surrey
I am writing to express my sincere gratitude for the superb and sensitive performance of the pipers and drummers at my father's funeral. All of you conducted yourselves with dignity and gave my father a send off he deserved.
