Based in Sheffield, England (17 miles from Doncaster) 4th October 2026 Pia&Pia Wedding Planner Greece - PIA PIA WEDDING PLANNING Ο Ε Photo of PipingScot PipingScot "Good morning David I just wanted to thank you for playing at my daughter’s wedding. I cannot thank you enough for adding the finishing touch to the wedding ceremony, it so complemented the Scottish roots of the family. I had so many complimentary comments said to me about lovely you were and that you looked splendid not to mention how much everybody enjoyed the pipes. May I just say again a very big thank you from all the family." Based in Selby, England (18 miles from Doncaster) Diane Taylor - Wedding Photo of Cameron Edgar - Pipe Major Cameron Edgar - Pipe Major "We can't thank you enough, Cameron, for helping to make our event special! The surprise element was perfect, and our guests were delighted to see you arrive and watch you play - it all added to the atmosphere! It is so moving to listen to the bagpipes, so to be in the presence of Cameron playing live at our event was a real privilege." Based in Wetherby, England (30 miles from Doncaster) 5th November 2025 Hannah Johnston - 10th Anniversary Gathering Photo of Andrew Brian - Highland Bagpiper Andrew Brian - Highland Bagpiper "Andy made our wedding anniversary celebration a very special day indeed. We were very moved hearing him play Highland Cathedral so beautifully as we had this at our wedding twenty two years ago. He communicated very well as soon as I made the booking and was very punctual. He looked incredibly smart and dapper and he played the bagpipe absolutely beautifully. It was just perfect. Would highly recommend and can’t wait to find another excuse to book him again." Based in Warrington, England (60 miles from Doncaster) Joanne - Anniversary Photo of Keith the Piper Keith the Piper "He made my wedding 100% much better ❤️ . . . Brunna" Based in Leominster, England (112 miles from Doncaster) 21st August 2026 Brunna Seixas - Private 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!" Based in Bedlington, England (113 miles from Doncaster) Rory Maclagan - Wedding April 2023

Frequently asked questions

The average cost of hiring bagpipers is £180, with prices ranging from £130 to £320+. 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.

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.

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.

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.
