Review by Willson H.

Funeral•Reviewed on April 8, 2026•From Woburn, MA

I hired Rick for my mother-in-laws funeral and he left a positive impression with my friends and family. I never got to meet in person but he showed up early, was dressed to impress and played amazing music. Some of my relatives are well versed in the music that Rick was hired to play and they noticed the little subtleties that made it super special and memorable. Thank you very much, Rick. You made a sad day beautiful even if just for a few moments.

Thank you so much………im glad you were pleased!!

Rick did a great job and hope to have him back aboard. When you get back to the dock, he left quickly. I went out to give him a tip, but he was long gone. Next time!

:

Thanks, Captain! It was a very nice send off! Sorry I missed you, afterwards! I was on the road since 5am! Hopefully, we meet again soon!

Funeral•Reviewed on June 16, 2025•From East Hampton, CT

Rick did an excellent job of having the pipes playing as we gathered at the cemetery to say a final goodbye to my wife who passed in January. Although the day was dreary with on and off light rain and cloudy it didn't make any difference to him. I would highly recommend Rick to anyone looking for this type of music. His communication before the event was excellent and he is a true professional.

Church Service•Reviewed on April 1, 2025•From Preston, CT

I found Rick Beaulieu to be very professional and friendly. He played the bagpipes beautifully for our church event. He came in full dress, and he was happy to accommodate my requests. I would recommend this gentleman to anyone. I am also very happy with THE BASH, which was easy to work with. Trish

Rick was absolutely terrific and I could not be happier with the entire experience. He was professional, thoughtful, respectful, communicative and played beautifully. And his appearance was that of the quintessential bagpiper. Well done sir! Many, many thanks.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on July 10, 2024•From Great Barrington, MA

Rick was absolutely perfect. He was easy to work with, communicative and responsive, thoughtful and patient - even with crazy weather the day of our wedding. Having him play made our wedding epic and I wouldn't have it any other way! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, Rick.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on October 3, 2023•From Hancock, MA

Rick was fantastic to work with. He was on time and willing to try something new (the wedding was on a mountain top). The music was great, just what we asked for, and made all the guests and participants feel special. We will have wonderful memories from this day made all the better by the bagpipe music. Thank you Rick, from the bottom of our hearts ??

Memorial Service•Reviewed on October 25, 2023•From West Hartford, CT

:

Not sure what the issue was…….. I performed as requested, I was there an hour early…… client seemed to be avoiding me………. What was the problem? This client expressed no problem that day and has ignored all requests to explain what her issues were…. Please note there is no explanation posted here & no commentary whatsoever… please check ALL of my other client reviews….
