Matthew Bartlett

A selection of what I can offer is outlined below, however, every event is unique and I will accommodate your plans to make your wedding day the way that you want it.

 

Please contact me to ask any questions, or to request a quote, or to just ask me how the sight and the sound of the great highland bagpipes can enhance your wedding day or event.

 

Weddings:  Your wedding is a uniquely special occasion and the sight and sound of a bagpiper in highland uniform on your wedding day would make it even more memorable. I can greet your guests when they arrive at the venue.  I can pipe the arrival of the bridal party at the wedding venue.  I can lead you from the wedding room out from the venue and on to your drinks reception, and I can entertain your friends and relatives after the service has finished and whilst initial photographs are being taken.  I can even pipe the married couple to their top table at the wedding reception.

The price I charge to attend at any wedding is dependent on the location of the venue and also your piping requirements for the day.  As such, I can tailor my services to make your wedding day the way you want it, to give you the best piping experience that I can offer, at the best price.  Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or would like to request a quote.

I am more than happy to take last minute bookings for weddings and any other events.

 

Parties, Anniversaries & Birthdays:  On such occasions I can welcome your guests to the venue with a few tunes, or simply surprise a friend or relative with a few traditional Scottish favourites, and even pipe "Happy Birthday".

 

Funerals:  I can pipe at the service, church, crematorium and/or graveside.  Please feel free to contact me about attendance at a funeral event.

"Thank you Matthew! Everyone was talking about it and many said it was the nicest funeral they have been to.  Everyone was impressed with your playing and how smart you looked. I simply can't thank you enough for helping to give my father a worthy service.  As an ex military man who loved the pipes I know he would have been so proud of your performance too. The funeral went much better than I expected it to and you exceeded all my expectations! Even the funeral director staff said it was a lovely service and wish more were like it. It was also very nice to meet you I will be eternally grateful to you. Thank you from all my family".

 

Burns Night:  No Burns Night or party is complete without the sounds of a bagpiper to pipe in the haggis.  If you are having a party to celebrate Robert Burns then what better way to celebrate than to have a bagpiper to welcome your guests and to pipe the arrival of the haggis.  Please contact me for availability on/around Burns Night.

 

New Years Eve:  What better way to welcome in the new year.  Having a bagpiper to pipe on New Years Eve adds a true sense of occasion to any event.

 

Other special events:  Banquets, gala evenings, store openings, charity, promotional or corporate events etc.  Please feel free to contact me to see how I can enhance your event.
