Wedding Piper - Church Ceremony or Civil Ceremony - Philip Henderson

A Piper has been entertaining guests at weddings, banquets and parties for centuries. Philip Henderson's specialist services in Yorkshire can be tailored precisely to your requirements and, if you wish, can be arranged as a complete surprise to all those taking part. The Ceremonial Wedding Piper is elegant & sartorial in his traditional Highland dress and perfect for a church ceremony or civil ceremony. The irresistibly infectious miniature musical masterpieces are largely based on a range of well known traditional Scottish airs & tunes, but he is always open to song suggestions & special requests. Bagpipes are often used to add uniquely light entertainment for birthdays, anniversaries, retirement functions or celebrations of any kind.

It is at wedding ceremonies where Philip is currently in most demand. He will furnish your guests with a 'feel good factor' as they arrive at the church or the civil venue for the ceremony, enhance the arrival of the Bride, lead the Bride up the aisle, play during the signing of the register, supply the Celtic 'good luck' tradition, (whereby the Piper is the first person to greet the newlyweds as they emerge after the ceremony), and then play for a suitable period during the photographs. The Piper can continue his uplifting music at the reception venue, where his dizzy fingers and billowing lungs can welcome the guests and signal the arrival of the Bride & Groom and top-table guests. He can pipe all the guests into the dining area, finishing with piping the Bride & Groom into the Wedding Breakfast. His consummate artistry is adaptable for Civil and Traditional Weddings, so for the perfect start to your wedding ceremony, 'Pipe In The Piper'.
