Our (Scottish) wedding at the Inn at Whitewell was all that more special with your splendid piping - people commented on the goose bumps they felt once you started the Highland Cathedral to pipe Vanessa down the aisle. Anyway, I could go on - but you provided a wonderful, friendly and trustworthy service. Good work my man!"
