Review by Sarah S.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on August 22, 2011•From Seattle, WA

Neil was truly fantastic to work with. He arrived early, met with our officiant and worked out any last minute ceremony changes, and was the ultimate professional for the wedding. He was so calm and put together, it set the mood as we all got ready before the ceremony. The pipes sounded fantastic; even in the large warehouse, which is terrible for acoustics, it sounded great. Walking down the aisle to Irish Eyes are Smiling is a memory I will always treasure. Highly, highly recommend!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on December 6, 2014•From Suquamish, WA

We had Neil play at our wedding on 10/4/14 and had an amazing experience!! We wanted him to be a surprise and enter quietly at the end of ceremony and play for the recessional and he did so and was awesome! No one knew that he was there until he started to play! Neil was very professional and kind we are so happy that we found him through gigmasters! Thank you so much Neil for all of your time and the beautiful music that we will remember always! You're the best!

Fabulous from beginning to end. Neil even picked up cues from our eulogy to add an additional favorite song graveside that lifted our hearts. Thanks, Neil for making our goodbye to our Mom so special.

Barbara, Thank you so much for your kind words. It was a pleasure to meet the other folks from you family and hear all their stories of your mom and dad. Take care, Neil

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on October 7, 2013•From Quincy, WA

Neil was totally awesome and we thoroughly enjoyed having him play at our wedding! From the moment we reached out to Neil, he really took an interest in what we were wanting to do, and listened to our requests with patience and professionalism. We even asked Neil if he could play the theme music from Indiana Jones and he was able to do that for us, even though no one had done it before, and he had to substitute some notes. It sounded great! Neil became a part of our wedding and we felt like he was really a friend attending, posing for pictures with us all and really helped make the day as special as we'd hoped. He even wore his boots to match the groomsmen!

Funeral•Reviewed on January 28, 2012•From Tacoma, WA

Neil is the best! He made our mother's memorial mass incredibly beautiful with his excellent, talented playing of the pipes. His compassion and comfortable demeanor are traits that put our family at ease. To top it off, our family name is Murray. Neil wore the Murray tartan at the memorial! His thoroughness in all he helped us with is something we will long remember.

Celebration•Reviewed on January 26, 2010•From Sammamish, WA

Nel was an absolute asset to the overall success of our event. He was very professional and accommodating for requests. We asked Neil to be photographed with everyone as they arrived at the party, which he was happy to do - he played all the requests for songs which were asked of him, and generally minled well with our guests. I would highly recommend Neil for future events

Neil went above and beyond what we expected and he did it with grace, compassion and professionalism. He is an exceptional piper. His music and performance was outstanding and gave our father's memorial service the perfect setting of our Scottish heritage. I highly recommend Neil's services for any event.

Wedding•Reviewed on August 30, 2008•From Seattle, WA

Neil helped make my wedding ceremony perfect! He was professional, friendly and right on time. He had a very relaxed and competent manner and his outfit complemented my groom and groomsmen, who were all in kilts as well. His playing really lent the perfect atmosphere to my ceremony, and we couldn't be happier with him! I would recommend him to anyone who wants an authentic Scottish/Celtic feel to their event. Thanks Neil!!

Neil was an integral part of my father's memorial service. His song selection for the ceremony were outstanding. Also, his performance of Amazing Grace was breathtaking, beautiful, and awe inspiring. I highly recommend Mr. Hubbard and feel fortunate to have had him as part of our family for a day.

Funeral•Reviewed on February 11, 2012•From Seattle, WA

Mr. Hubbard was on time and well dressed. He placed himself in great position and stood in the rain waiting for us to come. He was an important part of the service without making himself a focal point. Very professional, very talented.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on October 30, 2008•From Olympia, WA

Mr. Hubbard was right on time, he looked perfectly dressed in his highland kilt, and his pipes filled the air outside as my guests arrived for the party, exactly as I'd hoped. He played some indoor music later that was wonderful. I am so happy I found him and hired him to make my event totally unforgettable! He is very funny and kind, and a first-class performer.

Neil made a significant contribution to my husband's memorial service. He was excellent in every way! I would highly recommend him to anyone wanting to include bagpipes in their ceremony or event.
