"I asked Michael to help me do one of the most important things in my life yet - propose to my girlfriend. Michael played the Highland bagpipes and the whistle to make the magic happen. A great performance: musically, visually and emotionally. Very talented and dressed in a bagpiper uniform, a true professionnal. 100% satisfied! I forgot to mention, she said yes!"

"Ok, me and my family truly value our culture. Unfortunately the uncles and Dad's have passed on that play the pipes. I've used Johnny twice now for a celebration for life and my nephews wedding over the weekend. He knocked out our of the park every time. It's funny, everyone wants his number for events etc even if they aren't scottish lol. HIGHLY RECOMMEND coming from a very deep Scottish culture. God Bless you Johnny and the family's that get to experience your talent."

"Highland Games for our family reunion!!! Oh my goodness!! Johnny came and played the bagpipes for the opening ceremonies of our huge family Highland Games reunion!! He was AMAZING!! His music was a big hit and a very special highlight!! All of my family loved his music and how he personally played a medley in honor of each family. He was very professional and prompt and so kind to stick around for tons of family group photos!!! I would highly recommend him and we hope to work with him again soon!!!! Thank you Johnny!!!!! 🙏❤️"

"We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect addition to our wedding ceremony on March 27th than Michael, our incredible Highland piper. From the very beginning, Michael was so accommodating and easy to work with. During the booking process, he took the time to understand what was important to us, especially our Scottish family connections, and made sure to incorporate that in such a meaningful and thoughtful way. It truly meant a lot to both of us and to our families. On the day itself, Michael was flexible, kind, and completely professional. His talent shone through in every moment he played, creating a beautiful and memorable atmosphere throughout the церemоny. So many of our guests commented on how special his music was and how much it added to the day. We are incredibly grateful for all of Michael’s help, warmth, and kindness. He played such an important role in making our wedding day so memorable, and we can’t thank him enough. Highly recommended. Conor and Kirsty Igoe"

"Wow! We secured Stevie to pipe at our wedding just a couple of weeks before the big day after seeing him at our venues’s open day and we are so glad we did. He made all the difference to our wedding day. Stevie was a big hit with our guests and even took requests. He really added to the atmosphere and enjoyment. If you’re thinking of having a bagpiper, we couldn’t recommend Stevie enough! Thank you, Stevie Bagpipes. Andrew & Lilli."

"Great repertoire for my son’s grave dedication. Beautifully timed music - exactly as we planned. Very experienced bagpiper and great to work with. He brought an exquisitely heavenly atmosphere to this sacred moment and was so genuinely respectful of the occasion. Excellent competitive rate."

"Highly recommend Michael Lavelle, Achill Piper. He played for my brother's funeral in Galway. Came from Achill and was at the church to greet us with the beautiful selections. Our friends and relatives from the States were very impressed by his beautiful music and outfit. My brother would be very proud as he loved the pipes. Thank you, Michael. I highly recommend his piping."

"Johnny exceeded expectations at my father’s celebration of life. It was a low-key backyard event and he was responsive, helpful and genuine during all of our conversations to figure it out. Everyone loved his performance and friendly energy. It made the celebration extra special. Highly recommend for all types of events!"
