Life's passages are measured by the sound of the pipes! Every occasion becomes instantly memorable when the pipes are heard. Few moments are as moving as when a Piper in full Highland dress strikes in the pipes to begin your ceremony!

For outdoor ceremonies the pipes are incomparable! Whether by a lake or a pond or a hilltop overlooking the surrounding land how better to make your Wedding ceremony traditional than with a Piper. Usually from a slighlty secluded place the Piper will lead the procession of bridesmaids, flower children and Bride down the aisle and so the ceremony begins! A slow air is usually played during the signing of the register all followed by a spritely recessional with the Piper leading the way!

It's not just the Bride who may be piped down the aisle! Many a time when the ceremony is indoors and she wishes to be given away to the sound of the church organ it is the Piper who begins the ceremony by piping in the Groom and best men!

Anniversaries and Birthdays are made very, very special when a Piper is present, especially if it is a surprise! Emotions immediately flow to the surface! Enough said!

Whether piping in the head table, faculty and graduates or guests of honour, the pipes will add ritual to your next special function.

Finally, for life's most solemn occasions the pipes mournfully play in remembrance, yet when in celebration of a life well lived they ring strong and true!
