Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on August 3, 2026•From Blue Bell, PA

Colin was fantastic! He played outside the church before our wedding ceremony and created the perfect atmosphere as our guests arrived. A few days before the wedding, he reached out to confirm all the details, which gave us great peace of mind. On the day of, he was on time, professional, incredibly kind, and a pleasure to work with. Everything was seamless, and we received so many compliments. We couldn’t have been happier and would 100% recommend Colin. We’d absolutely hire him again for any future event!

The site, Bash, was user friendly and super informative. As for Collin from Philadelphia & District Pipes and Drums, he was professional, Friendly, welcoming and open minded. I couldn't thank him enough for enhancing my mothers funeral with a proper Scottish send off. Thanks for the opportunity to thank Collin again!!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on May 9, 2025•From Hatfield, PA

Callum was absolutely fantastic. We were celebrating my father's 95th birthday and Callum's performance and presence was a perfect fit to this celebration. My father is still talking about it. We are forever grateful to Callum and The Philadelphia & District Pipes and Drums for making this birthday a lasting memory for a man who has roots in Ireland and Scotland.

Funeral•Reviewed on June 17, 2024•From Bala Cynwyd, PA

Thank you very much for taking the time to play at my brother Alex's funeral on Father's Day. Thank you for playing the songs I requested and sounding excellent. I am sure everyone visiting the cemetery enjoyed the tunes, too. You will always be a part of the family history by being present, and a part of a good guy's funeral.

Wedding•Reviewed on March 11, 2024•From Wilmington, DE

Colin was an amazing performer and amazing to work with. Even with the rainy weather he stood outside for all the guests to welcome with his amazing performing. When the wedding service started at "HIghland Cathedral" echoed through the church I had tears rolling down my face. When i asked my Bride afterwards she was fighting back the tears as well. I would hired Colin again in an instance. Thank you!!!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on July 16, 2023•From Lansdale, PA

At 10:00pm the night before my daughters wedding I realized I had forgotten to book a bagpiper. I searched and sent several requests. Colin emailed me back and saved the day. He was punctual and professional and incredibly talented. I will never forget his kindness in coming through for us in a moments notice.

Our bagpiper, Callum, was fantastic! He showed up on time, kept me informed on the way to location that he would be arriving shortly. He was a true professional and extremely talented. I would most certainly use The Bash again! Thank you for helping in celebrating my father's 85th birthday! You made it a party we will never forget!

Funeral•Reviewed on December 11, 2022•From King of Prussia, PA

Thank you for the magnificent bagpipes, it was a perfect final farewell for my father, and quite moving for all of us. I appreciate the flexibility as the instructions and timing changed. It was a gift from above to find that the piper wears our family's tartan.

My grandfather was always very proud of both his Scottish heritage as well as his service in the United States Army. The pipes were a tremendously touching way to send him on his way. Thanks for your professionalism and care, the entire family benefited from your performance.

Colin was very accommodating to find a person to perform at our school considering the short notice. The performer Callum was awesome, and kids liked him and enjoyed listening to him playing his bagpipe.
