I recently had Halthepiper play for guests as they arrived to a wedding ceremony. He was on time, and my guests couldn't have been happier with the talent displayed. Halthepiper was easy to work with in setting up this event, and responded quickly and professionally when emails were sent to confirm details. It was a pleasure working with him, and would recommend him to anyone looking for a bagpiper for any event. Thank you Hal, it was wonderful! Matt

We could not ask for a better piper. He played the songs just perfectly and allowed us to celebrate our grandfather with his favorite songs. Best piper ever!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on March 21, 2013•From Arlington, VA

Hal was on time, played beautifully, was very pleasant. We had asked if he would parade down King Street for two blocks to lead the wedding party to the hotel where the reception was. He did this very willingly and I understand, from the Bride and Groom, happily. It was last minutw as it was raining and we weren't sure this part would work out. Hal parked and waited for the affirmative phone call, and with Mother Nature's help, it all worked out and the wedding party and Hal had a ball doing this, not to mention all the folks on King Street who watched them pass by. Hal was terrific and I highly recommend him!

We will be sure to ask him back every year for our camp. He was very engaging with the children, answered all of their questions, and inspired great interest.

Hal the Piper was just fantastic! This is the second year we have retained him to play at our St. Patrick's Day Party. He is the hit of the party- Everyone comments on how special it is to be "piped" into the party. He has incredible talent and is very personable and responds to all of the guests requests with humor and grace. I intend to retain him for next year's event. He is the best!

Saint Patrick's Day Party•Reviewed on September 21, 2010•From Washington, DC

Hal the Piper was unbelievable!! He followed through with everything we asked and stole the show with the crowd! It was only our Half Way to St. Patty's day party which was a huge hit so we are extremely excited for our actual St. Patrick's Day party! Hal the Piper was so above and beyond he even played for the waiting line of people after the time he was done!

Hal assembled a small band for our conference opening ceremony July 26, 2010. With nearly 2,000 attendees present, Hal and his band got our conference off to rousing start with their performance. Hal worked with us to meet our needs, and was on time which allowed us to go over last minute details. I would recommend Hal for a large event.

This is true... In a driving rain, Hal saved the outdoor wedding because the harpist refused to play most of the time. He was great and really added to the atmosphere. Le Keough

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on July 11, 2010•From Annapolis, MD

Hal exceeded all of our expectations. He was extremely responsive as we prepared for the wedding and has an extensive list of songs options. On the day of the wedding, Hal arrived at the church with his apprentice, both of them looking spectacular in the traditional attire. Hal lead all of our wedding guests from the church, through downtown Annapolis to the reception site without a single pause despite the heat and traffic. Our guests were thoroughly impressed and thought Hal's performance added a new level of character and fun to our day. I would strongly recommend Hal to anyone looking for a bagpiper and only hope that we have another occasion to use his services.

excellent

Comments from the Bride and Groom: Thank you, Kristin & Nathan Our Review: My dad surprised me with Hal the Piper for my wedding, as I have always wanted the bagpipes played at my wedding. He researched all the bagpipers in the Maryland area, and Hal came up rated as the best. He truly was the best! He talked with me multiple times via phone and even played songs on his bagpipe over the phone for me to hear. Then, we met in person, where he performed many of his songs on his bagpipes. It was truly incredible to hear in person and to be able to choose many of the songs he would play at the cocktail hour at our wedding. He was so gracious and concerned a
