Anniversary Party•Reviewed on July 29, 2019•From Lisle, IL
Piper Mike was outstanding. Really! He was most accommodating with our schedule, easily coordinating as we had to adjust our timing somewhat. His march to our party site was a surprise to everyone attending, and he handled it so very well as we all heard the piper approaching from a short distance. Just as I envisioned it. His performance was thoroughly enjoyed by all of our guests; perhaps most of all by the lady I most wanted to surprise. I've shared the information about him with others if they ever want an exceptional piper. Five stars may not be enough!

Gary, thank you again for having me down to play for the party, and also for this wonderful review. It really was great meeting you all, and glad the surprise went well. Take care, Mike

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on July 6, 2019•From Chicago, IL
Mike was an incredible addition to our wedding ceremony. Our guests gushed over his recessional performance. He was also so kind and accommodating during the planning process even just checking in to say hello and asking how I was doing. You will not regret having him play at your event!!!
:
Brittany, thank you so much for the wonderful review. Felt bad that we didn't get a chance to chat, but I know you were kind of busy. Glad the surprise for Chris went well. Great job again to you on keeping the surprise. I hope that the rest of the day went as well. Congratulations again to you and Chris. Wishing for you both much happiness. Mike

Memorial Service•Reviewed on July 3, 2019•From Milwaukee, WI
Mike was truly a professional and my family couldn’t have found a better fit for our memorial service. Incredibly easy to work with throughout the process. Great communication and took the time to understand how my family wanted to remember my mother. He made song suggestions, listened to our feedback, and remained flexible throughout the service. He was not someone who came in, piped for 15 minutes and left. He came early, stayed late, and my family continues to get kudos for his music. Will definitely hire him in the future and recommend him. Amazing guy.
:
Anne, first thank you again for having down to play for your Mom's Memorial. Then thank you also for this wonderful review. I'm so glad that I was able to work with you to help make it a fitting celebration of her life. I hope that the long faces you wanted to avoid having there were kept to a minimum. I have to admit that I almost slipped up when outside and played "Danny Boy", but thankfully I caught myself before doing so. Take care now, and I hope that our paths cross again someday. Mike

Thank you very much Devin, for again having me out to play for the service, and for this wonderful review. It was good to see how close you are with your sister and brother. That helps in these hard times. I hope that you all have safe trips back home, and you are all able to get together as much as possible. Take care, Mike

Review by Kate L.
Funeral•Reviewed on February 21, 2019•From Madison, WI
Mike was more than accommodating for us and very kind! He drove from Milwaukee to Madison to play at my dad's funeral in 15 degree weather and he only had 24-hours notice! Very professional and friendly, he even helped us carry the coffin from the hearse to the grave site.

Mike was very easy to work with. Always very friendly and wanting to do what I asked. I and the family of my sister at her Celebration of Life event was very happy with Mike. One of her wishes was to have a bagpiper play Amazing Grace which he did and a few other ones of her favorites.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on October 27, 2018•From Zion, IL
Mike was great! He was there early and played as my grandma came into the room for her surprise party. This was definitely the highlight of her night and I’m thankful that Mike was so nice and did a great job with stories to entertain between each song. I would highly recommend him!

Review by Ryan P.
Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on October 22, 2018•From Wrightstown, WI
Mike is a great bagpiper. He communicates well, and is very professional. He took the time to make sure we're getting everything we wanted in a performance. We hired Mike to play for our wedding ceremony at Church. We loved his performance, and the feedback we received from our guests was all positive. Hire PiperMike with great confidence.

Hi Ryan. Happy 2 Day Anniversary. Just wanted to thank you again for having me play for your wedding, and for this wonderful review. I really did enjoy meeting you both. Glad that it all worked out (once I found the right church). Thanks again, Mike

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on October 10, 2018•From Green Lake, WI
Piper Mike was just fantastic. I hired him for my wedding in Central Wisconsin and was impressed with his playing ability, professionalism and flexibility. In the lead up to the wedding, Mike was more than accommodating. He followed up and followed through on everything. On the big day, he was on time and played very well. I received many compliments that day on Mike and I would recommend him to anyone. He even took a few requests for my groomsmen as we took photos. Mike is awesome!

Review by Nancy A.
Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on September 23, 2018•From Butler, WI
This was a great experience! Mike responded quickly to all of my questions/requests and had a few welcomed suggestions. He was dressed in full garb and arrived a few minutes early to ensure that things would run smoothly. He had a great sense of humor and played beautifully...his music resonated through the neighborhood and left us all with chills when he ended with `Amazing Grace`!
:
Thank you Nancy, first for having me out to play for Tamara's birthday, and second for this wonderful review. It was great fun playing for your group of friends, and I could easily see that it the perfect gift for Tamara, by the way she responded to the piping. Thanks also for your request for me to learn "(I will Walk) 500 Miles". I play that now every time I'm asked to play a variety of songs. Perhaps our paths will cross again if you ever need a piper for any occasion. Take care and thanks again, Mike
