Craig was excellent and made our day perfect. We had the privilege of meeting before our wedding. A very talented piper with many years of experience and so friendly. Exceeded expectations and we would throughly recommend. Thank you for being part of our wedding day and providing us with all we wanted.

I'm so glad we picked Craig to be the Piper at our daughter's wedding he was the consummate professional from start to finish. From the very start nothing was a bother to Craig, anytime we messaged him he replied very quickly. We weren't sure what we wanted played so we left the decision to Craig. When we read his reviews we knew this man knows his profession inside out and we trusted him completely for her big day. Craig made the day truly magical especially for our American groom and guests. We are so glad we choose Craig and wouldn't hesitate to use his services again.

From start to finish Craig was amazing, he kept in touch throughout and asked for any requests we would like piped. He arrived very promptly and couldn’t have done any more to make sure it was perfect for our wedding. Everyone commented on how good he was. Would definitely use Craig again. Thank you so much
