“Absolutely Amazing, What a guy, Piped prior to the Ceremony, Joan down the isle, during the signing and then both of us up the isle. Also Piped through the drinks reception and then us in for the Wedding Breakfast. Very Professional and amazing Piping. We would have no hesitation in recommending Major Andrew Brian to pipe for your occasion and I'm sure some off our guests will be in the future..”

Katrina W booked Pipe Major Andrew Brian for their Wedding in Cheshire
“Andrew has been an absolute pleasure from start to finish! In fact he has been one of the kindest suppliers we had for our wedding! Communication was absolutely fantastic and he ended up preforming our entire day!! Even in the rain!!!! He was absolutely outstanding!!! There is no doubt he made our day! Standing next to Mark, piping in our guests, waiting to pipe us after the ceremony, piping all afternoon in the garden (in the rain) then to our sit down meal. He went above and beyond!! Andy I cannot thank you enough!!! You are absolutely incredible. Do not hesitate booking him! Not only is he talented, punctual and a beautiful artist, he is unbelievably kind and felt like he cared about our wedding. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you Andy!”
