This is my second wedding vendor review and it is for our bagpiper, Gary Guth!

Gary was a wonderful addition to our wedding day.  The music was phenomenal, his ensemble was authentic, and everyone really enjoyed having the Scottish bagpipes played at our ceremony...including us!

I began my coordination with Gary by emailing him to find out his price and to see if he was available to play at our wedding on November 1st.  Gary responded in a very timely manner and was extremely patient while he waited for our final decision.  We were so happy he was still available when we were absolutely sure we wanted to added this element to our special day!

The arrangement was such that he would arrive about a 1/2 hour before the ceremony official started and would play a selection of music while the guests arrived at the church.  He would also come into the church and get us from up at the altar after we the ceremony was over and would escort us down the aisle, while playing "Murdo's Wedding".  And lastly, he would play another selection of songs while we greeted our guests in the receiving line.

Gary was fantastic!  We were absolutely thrilled and our guests loved the special touch just as much as we did!  Thanks Gary!
