Recent reviews of our Wedding Bagpipers in Bradford

“Craig was outstanding in every way. His performance made the occasion of my Dad’s 80th birthday so memorable. His communication before the event was excellent and he was incredibly flexible to allow us to keep his appearance a surprise and even put his walking boots on so that he could pipe while walking through Dad’s vineyard at the start. It was theatrical and emotional and I couldn’t recommend him highly enough. Thank you so much Craig! ”

Fiona hired Craig McIntosh for a Private event (available in Bradford)

“Craig played at my mothers funeral. We will be eternally grateful to Craig for making my mothers day so special. We had so many people comment on the beautiful rendition of 'sleep dearie sleep' as he walked in from off the hearse. A difficult day was filled with love when we heard the pipes. Even the rain didn’t spoil Craigs playing. We would highly recommend.”

Jayne hired Craig McIntosh for a Funeral / Memorial service (available in Bradford)

“Craig played the bagpipes at my eldest son's wedding. He was both extremely personal and professional and was exceptionally well received by those in attendance. He guided the bride and groom with musical selection, which was appropriate and expertly delivered. All in all, very highly recommended. Craig will not disappoint and will add to the occasion; whatever that may be.”

FAQs about hiring Wedding Bagpipers in Bradford

Take the stress out of hiring musicians with Encore

Can any bagpiper play my favourite song?

Professional bagpipers will often take requests, but you will need to give them plenty of notice. Please also keep in mind that bagpipers may ask for an small additional fee to prepare songs that aren't already on their song list. You can view the bagpiper's song list on their Encore profile.

How much time do bagpipers take to set up?

Your bagpiper will usually arrive about an hour or so before their performance begins to set up and get settled before they start playing. To avoid any delays, make sure the performance space is ready for the bagpiper prior to their arrival.

My venue has asked for the performer’s PLI & PAT inspection certificates. What are these?

PLI stands for Public Liability Insurance. This insurance covers damage to another person or their property (it is also known as third party insurance). As many of our bagpipers are members of the Musician's Union, they are already covered by PLI up to £10 million. PAT stands for portable appliance testing. Most of our bagpipers will already have a PAT inspection certificate for their musical equipment/PA system, which they can provide to your venue if they need it.
