Photo of Bagpiper for every occasion Bagpiper for every occasion "All my guests have praised you! So nice you could come and make our day super special." Based in Århus, Central Jutland (26 miles from Silkeborg) 20th March 2026 Margaret McDougall - Wedding Photo of The Bagpipes Orchestra (Säckpipsorkestern) The Bagpipes Orchestra (Säckpipsorkestern) "I cannot praise this Scottish Pipe band enough! They helped me surprise my daughter and son in law on their wedding day by playing a rowsing tune just as the church doors opened, and then by leading the wedding party in a short march across the road to the reception. Everyone joined in, the bride and groom danced and it provided a wonderful start to the celebrations! All communications were by email as I live in England and the band were very patient with my requests. If you want something special for your celebration I can highly recommend these wonderful musicians. Thank you for making my daughter's day unique." Based in Stockholm, Sweden (382 miles from Silkeborg) Cath Williams - Wedding Photo of Stevie Bagpipes Stevie Bagpipes "Stevie is a great guy and a wonderful piper. He was a fantastic addition to our wedding day and we are so glad that he was able to be with us. With clear communication and quick responses from first contact through to the day itself he was always very friendly and accommodating. Nothing was too much trouble for him and his range of music was fab. The added bonus of the pipers toast after being piped into our wedding breakfast was very special and a lovely touch. We would absolutely recommend Stevie to anyone even considering having bagpipes at their event!"

Frequently asked questions

The average cost of hiring bagpipers is kr1,600, with prices ranging from kr1,300 to kr2,500+. Rates vary depending on the length of the performance, travel distance and whether the booking includes ceremonial piping, background music or both. Many pipers also offer options such as traditional Highland dress or specific tune requests.

Most bagpipers are happy to perform both indoors and outdoors. However, bagpipes are naturally very loud, so indoor performances may be more suitable in larger spaces such as halls, marquees or churches. It is worth discussing the venue with the piper to ensure the volume is appropriate for the setting.

Most bagpipers perform for 30 minutes to one hour, though this varies depending on the event. Bagpiping is physically demanding, so sets are typically shorter than those of other musicians. Many pipers can perform at several points during an event rather than in one continuous set.

Many clients book bagpipers for weddings, Burns Night celebrations, funerals, corporate events, graduation ceremonies and sporting occasions. A piper can provide a dramatic entrance for the bride, pipe in the haggis at a Burns supper or add a sense of ceremony to formal events.
