Amazing no other words can describe my day. I asked Jason if he could play a certain song. He had never played it but learnt it for me and played it at my wedding

Jason is incredible! From performance, to accommodation, personality, etc. I believe that he is the MOST perfect person we could have picked for our ceremony. I wanted to secretly hire a piper for my wife and I's wedding ceremony in the Scottish Highlands. Working with Jason, he was able to travel, accommodate to our needs and communicate with me to arrange everything to be as smooth as possible with 0 bumps in the road. Jason became a very special part of our day and is someone we still continue to talk about even after our ceremony. He has an incredible history, is an overall incredible person to spend some time with and is very talented - being open to answer any and all questions, comments, etc. Thank you so much again Jason for everything and we hope to see you again next time we visit Scotland
