"Andrew gave a wonderful performance for us at our wedding. The weather wasn't fantastic during the afternoon, but Andrew kept all of our guests entertained, played us into dinner too. It brought a taste of Scotland to Liverpool."

"Johnny Miner performed the bagpipes at our grandfather’s funeral. His performance was beautiful and one of our favorite parts of the service. Johnny was professional, talented, and had great suggestions for making the service special. Definitely recommend him!"

"Johnny Miner was an exceptional choice for my father’s funeral. From the very beginning, coordinating with him was easy and reassuring. He offered insightful advice and thoughtful guidance that clearly came from many years of experience, which was invaluable during such a difficult time. He also provided a wonderful selection of songs to choose from, helping us select music that felt personal and meaningful for the service. His talent on the bagpipes is truly remarkable. The music he played was powerful, moving, and deeply meaningful, creating a moment that honored my father beautifully and left a lasting impression on everyone present. Beyond his musical skill, Johnny carried himself with great dignity and professionalism, which added to the solemnity and respect of the service. I am profoundly grateful for his contribution and would highly recommend Johnny Miner to anyone seeking a bagpiper who combines exceptional talent with compassion, experience, and grace."

"I just wanted to thank you and Dougie very much for excellent work. It was a great events thanks to Dougie. We had about 1700 students who needed to get from McEwan hall to Appleton Tower and it would have been impossible to arrange it without such an excellent piper like Dougie. Thank you! Best wishes, Inga"

I extend my deepest gratitude for assisting us in honoring our beautiful Mother, it truly was the cherry on top. His presence brought comfort, honor, and a touch of tradition to the service, leaving an indelible mark on our hearts.

" Thank you so much for today, you were amazing, so professional in everything you did, and you caught the mood of the day perfectly, it could easily have been very sombre, but yourself and Anthony (Vicar) made it a true celebration of Delcie's life. Sandra could not have hoped for better. So, thank you so much from us both. Once again Many Thanks Andrew & Sandra"

"My family enjoyed the pleasure of having Johnny play at my mom & dads graveside service! I wanted to surprise my siblings and have Johnny start playing on 👍 The service was running late because we were waiting for my nephew driving in from MT and so Johnny had to leave twice to go to a nearby park to retune his pipes. My brother gave the opening prayer and then I spoke for a minute and then motioned for Johnny to start playing 👍 He began with “how great thou art” as he walked over to the graveside and everyone was touched to tears. 😢 The he played “Amazing Grace” at the headstone! Then after some family members spoke, he played a request for my dads birthday of “Danny Boy” and I know my mom loved Hallelujah but it wasn’t on his list and so I asked him if he could try it. It was short notice only a few days and Johnny nailed it!! It was a very special tribute and send off to our mom & dad and Johnny did a beautiful job and I won’t hesitate to recommend him for any family funeral!! It was perfect 👍 Thank You Johnny, from the bottom of my heart ❤️"

"We just wanted to thank you so much for playing at our wedding recently. As my family are Scottish a piper was always something I wanted and when we came across your site my dad thought you were brilliant. Having then lost my dad only very recently having you there was all the more poignant. The moment I heard you play when I was in the bridal suite brought me to tears. It was so very special. You are a complete professional and communication was fabulous from start to finish. Having you pipe us into the wedding breakfast and presenting you with the traditional quaich made our wedding so much more special. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend you to others. Thank you so much."

"Keith, thank you so much for piping at our wedding! We are so glad we chose you to be part of our wedding day. From start to finish, you were friendly, approachable, and a pleasure to have around. The piping was excellent and added exactly what we had hoped for, bringing a little piece of Scotland to our wedding in Shropshire. You judged every moment perfectly and helped create such a lovely atmosphere throughout the day. You were also fantastic with our guests! Looking back at our photos and videos, you played a part in some special moments from the day, both beautiful and funny. Thank you for helping make our wedding so memorable. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend you."

"Good morning, Major Dirk! I honestly cannot thank you enough! Thank you, thank you, thank you! We are still talking about you and will probably be doing so for a long time. Your incredible skill, your passion, and the pride with which you wear the title of Piper truly made an impression on all of us. You added something so very special to our celebration and made the evening unforgettable. You were, without a doubt, the most wonderful birthday gift my husband could have wished for. Thank you for sharing your talent with us and for making the occasion so memorable! When you came around that corner playing Flower of Scotland, we were all caught somewhere between awe, wonder and sheer disbelief. It was one of those moments that took everyone’s breath away. You looked every bit the part and performed with the skill, dignity and presence of a true Royal Piper. It was simply magnificent!"

"We were absolutely blown away by our violinist, Julian, at my daughter’s wedding. The music created such a magical atmosphere from the ceremony to the reception. Every song was played beautifully and our guests couldn’t stop talking about how much it elevated the day. Professional, talented, and truly gifted, having him perform was one of the best decisions we made. He didn’t just play music he created memories we will treasure forever. "

"Johnny was fantastic to work with. Our family needed a bagpiper last minute for a funeral, and he came through. He was very helpful and easy to work with throughout the process. I’d absolutely recommend him to anyone."

"Stevie attended a weekend event supporting the Royal Marines Charity at Clennell Hall Hotel in Northumberland. Stevie made every effort to accommodate our needs and went above and beyond to do this as our timings moved considerably. His playing of the bagpipes on completion of our minutes silence was so moving and totally appropriate to the moment. He is a complete professional with the personal touch and is willing to help make the occasion very special. The immaculate traditional dress also adds to the overall package provided by Stevie. He’s already booked for next year. Ian Scott"

"Before our mother passed, her wish was to have a bagpiper play Amazing Grace. Johnny did so much more! As we arrived at the cemetery, he was playing hymns at a little distance. As the pallbearers brought the casket to the graveside, he played her favorite Amazing Grace, and following the dedication of the grave, he played Going Home. Johnny explained to me earlier about the Celtic belief that the soul would stay with the body until after the service, the soul would be led away by the bagpiper to Go home. It was all beautiful and respectful abd would have made my mother very happy. The family was very pleased. My husband (who has no Scottish Ancestors) said afterward that he would like a bagpiper for his burial! Thank you so much for helping to make a difficult day an uplifting experience."
