"Robert recently played at my Grandfathers funeral. He looked splendid in his Saffron kilt. My Grandfather would be very proud being led on his final journey by a Royal Irish Piper. "

"Pipe Major Julie was an absolutely amazing piper and we couldn't be happier we hired her to play at our wedding! She was friendly and communicative, and incredibly helpful when we had a last minute hiccup in our wedding plans. "

"David was fantastic and made our day even more special. From coming with me to collect my bride in our RR and Daimler and then leading us, walking down the road and playing with the Dhol drummers (blended marriage Anglo-Indian) he was resplendent in his full regalia and the sound of the pipes carried throughout the local roads so we gathered quite a large crowd! David joined us throughout the day, through our service and afterwards at the reception, he carried the day and kept things going during greetings and presentations with his amazing skills. You have not heard bagpipes played this well before, in fact David was leading the Queen out at the Trooping of the Colour for the Platinum Jubilee the next day. You will not be disappointed. Thanks again David, you made our special day an amazing day and better than I could have thought possible. "

"Chris piped at my daughter’s wedding to welcome the guests to the ceremony and then piped my daughter into the venue. Our guests were so pleased to have a piper welcome them as it is always emotional hearing the bagpipes played so well. My daughter could hear Chris from her guest house close by and that was so lovely to be waiting to come to your wedding with the pipes in the background. Chris was lovely to deal with and was the only person to personally phone me when we were scouting for a piper. He also followed up the week before to make sure everything was going to be perfect for us. A great musician and we loved having him at our special day. "

"Tony played at our wedding and was fantastic. He is a brilliant piper and as soon as we arrived and heard the pipes all our nerves disappeared. It put more than a little bit of magic into the day and is a memory we will cherish forever."

"Our memorable day made even more unforgettable due to the fantastic playing of Pipe Major Billy James, who at incredibly short notice provided the most amazing music at our Wedding at Allington Manor in Lincolnshire. Thank you so much."

"Now that my family have gone back to Italy and Edinburgh I just wanted to thank you for playing at Dave’s funeral on Monday. You played beautifully and everybody at the cemetery agreed that it was a very apt tribute to my husband. I know that you’re playing from the chapel to the graveside gave both my daughter and myself strength to walk from the chapel behind the coffin - I felt my head lift and my spine straighten and the position where you stood on the other side of the path will always be in my memory especially when I visit his grave. Thank you again for adding that special touch of dignity to a very dignified man."

"Both myself and my wife Leighanne can’t thank George at Arkleston Piping enough. Nearly 3 hours away from Glasgow, in the middle of nowhere and with no phone/internet connection but George arrived bang on time looking like a shiny penny. He took the time to speak with us and make our big day even more special by being flexible and personalising our piping needs. George played flawlessly and every guest was extremely impressed. If your looking for a piper then Arkleston Piping are the pipers you should contact. Thanks again, Martin and Leighanne 08/09/18."
