We cannot thank Tim Carey enough!! He was there early, was completely professional, executed perfectly what was asked of him and his talent is unbelieveable. He had everyone in tears at the end of the wedding because his performance was so moving! He made our daughter's wedding ceremony so special and memorable and we will never forget him.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on August 23, 2008•From Arlington, VA

Tim's bagpiping skills were terrific, and his selection of tunes for our guest of honor was perfect. Following his performance, he made himself available to answer questions about the bagpipe. He's very personable, has a great sense of humor, and is fun to deal with. Prior to the event, he followed up in a timely way. Just a great all-round experience!

Funeral•Reviewed on May 12, 2010•From Rockville, MD

Tim Carey played the bagpipes at the church and cemetary for my father-in-law's funeral. Tim is extremely talented, experienced, reliable and accommodating, and we were all very pleased with the nice touch his music added at both places. He is a true professional and I would highly recommend him to perform at any occasion. Tim is the best!

Tim Carey was totally professional and accommodating. I had to change the time of his performing the morning of the performance and he was so gracious about the change. He played at the entrance to the chrch before my daughter's wedding. He set the tone for a joyous celebration. He was also so prompt in calling me back when we were making the original arrangements. Thank you Mr. Carey for making long distance arrangements so easy.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on November 7, 2011•From Washington, DC

We used Gig Master to find a local bag piper for our Fall October wedding, we chose Tim Carey and couldn't have been more pleased with the experience and his level of professionalism and talent. We exchanged a few emails, asked questions, and had a plan for music and schedule and a back up plan (luckily). I only say luckily because who could've predicted snow in October in DC. Tim didn't miss a beat; he was on time, friendly and play beautiful music that our guests are still raving about! I would recommend Tim for any event and I will keep him in mind for any event I may have in the future. He will be our 1st and ONLY choice! Jamie and Dwayne Coleman

Private Party•Reviewed on June 7, 2011•From Annapolis, MD

The perfect surprise accent to a wonderful rehearsal dinner for my son. It was on the water at Annapolis Maritime Museum and he was just suddenly there, and the sound drifted across the water and the entire party of 120 guests just stopped and were in awe. Thank you Tim, it was great.

Funeral•Reviewed on January 10, 2010•From Mitchellville, MD

Tim Carey was absolutely wonderful to work with. His professionalism was evident from our first point of contact, and his musical talent on the bagpipes was of the highest caliber. He helped create the perfect atmosphere for my father's funeral, and my family will always be grateful to him for the role he played.

Tim did an amazing job performing the recessional at my wedding. It was a perfect way to bring a piece of my Scottish heritage to the ceremony.

Anniversary Party•Reviewed on July 14, 2009•From Ellicott City, MD

Well, this is the second time I've submitted feedback, but I went over the 675 character limit and my feedback was erased. So, this time in a nut shell: professional, flexible, patient, entertaining, skilled, groomed, unique, prepared, & excellent. I loved him, my guests loved him, and the minister loved him. He couldn't have done anything to make his performance better. We want to hire him again for another church function. Wonderful!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on September 12, 2011•From Hershey, PA

Tim made sure to keep in contact with the event venue coordinator throughout the day (August 27, 2011 - Hurrican Irene was due to hit) to ensure that he knew whether the event would be held indoors or outdoors as planned. He sounded fantastic and brought a tear to many a guests' eye. I would highly recommend Tim for any event. He was very professional and very helpful with both the planning and last minute changes that occurred. Thank you very much for making my wedding day a very memorable event.
