"Highly recommend Stevie. He played at my Dad's funeral and was fantastic. The music he played gave my Dad the best send off. He went over and above with what he did and was really professional. Thank you so much."

"We couldn't believe we found Simon right on our doorstep in Herefordshire. My father was reluctant to have bagpipes at our wedding after hearing them being played really badly at a market in Leominster just before Christmas a couple of years ago but after watching and listening to Simon we were made up. He is a gem. He came to our house before our wedding to discuss the tunes we wanted and he bought his pipes to play for us. Amazing. "

"I booked a piper for a last minute Surprise wedding and was over the moon at the quick response. Gordon the piper was amazing and made the day extra special. Even passers by on the street stopped to listen to his wonderful piping and he was very accommodating for pictures and videos which have now gone round the world to family and friends. I must commend George on his response time as he immediately got back to my request and had arrangements in place within a day. I would heartily recommend Arkleston Pipers for their excellent service. You will not be disappointed!!! Absolutely First Class."

"Matthew is an excellent bagpiper. He played tunes that everyone recognised, and when he had finished playing he answered various questions about his tartan and himself which was great to hear. Myself and some other family members will be followers of Matthew from now on. I will definitely recommend him to others"

"I cannot thank rich enough! He brought fun and energy, whilst at the same time a cool and relaxed vibe to our wedding. Every single guest thought he was fantastic and a few want to book him for their own wedding. You made our day better thanks a lot! "

"My brother recently died in Australia, and my remaining brother and I couldn't attend his funeral, as like so many other people during these troubled times. We returned to our brother's birth-place, in Lancashire, where there is a family vault, laid flowers and asked Malcolm to play two of my brother's favourite tunes. It was a most moving moment, not just because of the pipes but because of the kindness shown to us both by the piper himself. Although it was a brief ceremony, it was conducted with dignity and consideration. "

"With only two days notice Patrick fulfilled my expectations on what was a very emotional and sad day. Communication in emails between us was very good and timely and nothing was too much trouble. He arrived well in advance of the funeral to give him time to warm up the pipes and all those arriving were very appreciative. The deceased, my partner was from Scotland. He loved the bagpipes and would have been mightily impressed. My original Piper, sadly, was suddenly taken ill and as an organisation you certainly lived up to your name of 'Last minute musicians.' At a very anxious time, with constant updates, you made the whole booking process very easy. Thank you. I would highly recommend you. "

"You could not meet a nicer man. Ed was so kind to my mum who has dementia. We had a small family gathering to celebrate her 91st birthday. I don’t know what to say - just amazing! I will give warning though ... take tissues! There was not a dry eye in the room. Ed played so beautifully, it was unbelievably emotional. Can not give this lovely man enough praise. We will remember this day forever. Thank you so much Ed - hoping very much to see you again one day. You made a very old lady’s wish come true. A million massive thank you’s xxx "

"When we enquired if Andrew would be available for my Father's funeral, i was extremly impressed by the personal empathy he has shown in making sure the music was as we would like. I cannot explain the emotions experienced in having Andrew pipe my Father's Hurst arriving to the crematorium , my Father would have loved every second. The sound was pitch perfect, a credit to a true musician, every note resonated true feelings, for which I cannot thank Andrew enough. You only have one chance to say goodbye, and I wouldn't want anyone other than Andrew as my piper to portray those emotions. "

Reply by Andrew Brian Highland bagpiper
Thank you so much for such kind words. I'm really pleased my piping was so well received. All the very best, Andy

"Rich played at my wedding last month at Aberdeen University and was absolutely fantastic, other guests have told me the same. As the bride, the only regret I have is that I wasn’t there before the wedding to see Rich play more. Would highly recommend and would definitely use Rich again I’m a heartbeat. Thanks for playing for us Rich."
