Hi Alasdair. Just thought I would drop you a quick e mail to thank you again for yesterday. You made a perfect day even better for our daughter. She loved having a wedding bagpiper as a surprise.

So again accept our heartfelt thanks. Take care.

RegardsLesley Ferguson

Alasdair, Thank you very much for your wonderful piping at our wedding.  It really added to the atmosphere of the day, and our guests commented on the quality of your piping.  We would highly recommend you for your professionalism on the day, and your assistance beforehand with choosing tunes for every part of the day.  Thank you for being a part of our day.

Just a note to say a big "Thank You" for adding to a wonderful birthday party on 9th July 2011 for Carl Ravn. 

Everything was just perfect, even the weather.

You did a wonderful piping job and everyone loved the "big surprise" of seeing you at The Cruin Restaurant when we arrived. It was pretty magical and everything I wanted.....Thanks so much for your services Alasdair.

Thank you very very much for piping on our special day.  From helping the guys with their kilts to giving us your dirk to cut the cake with, to making my mother cry whilst giving us our toast.  Words cannot express how impressed we and our guests were with the standard of performance you gave us on the day, it gave everyone a wee taste of real Scotland.  You looked fantastic and your piping was of an extremly high quality all throughout. 

It meant so much to us and we shall treasure the memories forever.

Both Ishbel and I would like to thank you so very much for your wonderful involvement in our wedding day. You looked most splendid in your ceremonial dress and it certainly added to the spectacle of that which was accompanied by your accomplished pipe playing. Ishbel joyously smiles at the pictures of the pipers’ toast which was one of many moments when your commitment and professionalism shone through. Our photographer had even dubbed you “Super Piper”, whilst family and friends commented on your dress and memorable tunes.

Thank you so much from Giando and myself for your wonderful playing at our wedding.
We are busy packing, ready to emigrate but wanted to drop a quick note to say...
 
Our families really enjoyed your piping at our wedding at Mar Hall on the 21st November. With guests from England and Italy, it really made the day special and added hugely to the ambience of such a great setting.
 
We would thoroughly recommend you to anyone considering a Piper for their wedding or special event. Your services are great value, the playing excellent and you were so prompt and couteous.
 
Thank you again.
 
Ever thought about a return visit to Kuwait? I am sure The Caledonia Society there would love you!
 
Many Thanks

What can we say, Alasdair did a fantastic job piping at our wedding!  He was so professional and looked amazing too. 

Thank you for helping make our day wonderfull! 

We will be recommending your services to all our friends!

 

Michelle and Darren Brooks, The Cruin, September 2010 

 

Our budget did not allow a bagpiper for wedding but we decided to book you anyway and we are so glad we did.

Your music created an amazing atmosphere, as I was getting ready to leave for church in hotel I heard you play and it was so exciting for me as it signalled the start of all our planning coming to life and the beginning of our big day.
As you know we had guests from abroad and they loved you being there, you were entertaining throughout.  
Your music created the perfect atmosphere and the day would not have been the same without you.  Even though it was a hot sunny day you never once looked flustered or fed up, you were professional and polite throughout. 
We voted for you at the vows awards as we were very, very happy with you.
 
Highly, highly recommended.
 
Again thanks very much and good luck in the vows awards, you deserve to win something.

Hi Alasdair ,We just wanted to say thank you so so much for playing at our wedding on Saturday! We had an amazing day and your bagpipes played a part in making everything so perfect.

All the best for the future. 

 

Lisa and Nick Ponty, Boturich Castle, June 2010 

 

 Alasdair, I would not hesitate to recommend you to anyone should they wish a piper at their wedding or event.  My family and friends all commented on how fantastic you were on our special day.  On the run up to our wedding you were very helpful and we knew we had made the right choice before we even heard you.  The tunes you played were magnificent, and really set the tone for the rest of the day, thank you very much. 

 

Elaine and Richard Wood, Gleddoch House Hotel, June 2010 

 

 Hi Alasdair, We'd both like to say thanks a million for your fantastic service on our wedding day - you were absolutely amazing with the bagpipes, but not only that - even right down to fixing David's plaid for him, and helping to keep everything in order!! 

 

You helped make our day something to remember forever! We'll definitely be keeping you in mind for future bookings and recommending to you to everyone we know !!

Alasdair piped my daughter and her husband into their wedding party. His standard of dress and the quality of his music were a credit to him and set the tone for a most enjoyable evening.

 

'Til the next time!

  

Jim McCall, Strathclyde Homes Stadium, Sept 2009  

 

On the occasion of our sad loss Alasdair demonstrated a great deal of kindness and put a great deal of  thought into the music he played at my mother's funeral

Alasdair's committment and attention to detail made my daughter's wedding very special. She will always cherish the piece of piping music he composed and dedicated to her and her new husband . 

 

Joe, Rotterdam Town Hall, Aug 2008 

 

I can only congratulate Alasdair on his piping at my daughter's wedding. He carried his duties in time honoured tradition which obviously comes from his Scots Guards background. Well done!
