Wedding Ceremony

on 03/16/2013
"After speaking with Victor and listening to his tapes, I hired him and drummer, Kenny. They were already outside the church when I arrived and they played beautifully for the half hour prior to the ceremony. They also play immediately following - a more joyous selection of music. The bride and groom loved it as did the guests. "

"I can't adequately express how wonderful Victor was.
My wife,who is an acclaimed Scottish rock singer was absolutely gob-smacked,as they say back in Glasgow.
As well,I am a film composer,and was extremely impressed with you agency and have spread the word about you to my manager and collegues.
Many thanks for making Angela's birthday unforgettable.
My very best,

"Victor and Kenny made our wedding amazing. They are extremely talented and professional. Speaking with Victor and making arrangements for him to play at our wedding ceremony was a pleasure. He is organized, friendly, and just overall a wonderful person to work with. Victor and Kenny arrived on time to the wedding, they looked great dressed in full uniform and they were a huge hit for all of our guests. Everyone was very surprised and impressed. I would highly recommend Hampton Pipes to anyone! They added a special touch to our wedding and they were by far our favorite "vendor"! "

"If you are looking for a bagpiper for your event, hire Hampton Pipes NOW!
Victor, of Hampton Pipes, could not be a nicer guy, and he helped make my engagement proposal absolutely unforgettable.
I searched Gigmasters for a bagpiper to play two popular love songs on the bagpipes, but was told by the performers that "unfortunately it is impossible to play those songs on the pipes." Not only was Hampton Pipes professional, talented and above all, accommodating, Victor made the "IMPOSSIBLE" a memory my fiancé and I will never forget. After working tirelessly with me by phone and e-mail to get everything "just right", Victor truly knocked it out of the park! "

"Victor from Hampton Pipes was absolutely incredible. I would love to do business with him in the future as he was incredibly professional and accommodating, worked wonderfully with my other wedding vendors and even stood and played in the rain outside the church after our wedding ceremony. He was a great addition to our wedding."

"Could not have been happier. He stopped by a week early so we could 'walk' the route back from our beach wedding to the reception at our house. Was such a nice person to work with and the wedding was the talk of the neighborhood! Played beautifully and made for such a memorable event. Thank you Victor!"

"He was amazing. He answered any and all questions and requests. He did not even skip a beat when there was a major hiccup in my wedding ceremony. His performance was flawless. I would reccomend him and use him again for any performance. Not to mention my wedding was on St. Patricks Day the hardest day to find a bagpipe player and he came through with flying colors!!!!"

"These guys were extremely easy to work with and very professional. That however is not the best part of dealing with them, the music is what makes them great. Loved listening to them and People raved about their performance.
I actually handed out their card to the people at my venue personally!
I can't wait to schedule them in a better venue when we can hear their whole song list!
Sincerely,
MMP"

"I am so very pleased with Victor and Hampton Pipes, during a very sad, solemn time. Victor showed the upmost dignity and concern, and played his beautiful tunes at my father's gravesite, that were loved by all and heard in Heaven.
It was difficult to find the family gravesite in the old cemetery, and Victor (prepared and ready) was there before people arrived, playing his pipes guiding family and friends to my father's final rest. I highly recommend him. 5 stars across!

"Victor – Thank You so very much. As with all wonderful things, it went by too quickly. The performance was more then we could have expected. A few of the guests actually had tears come to their eyes.
I would recommend Hampton Pipes for any occasion, especially the real special ones. A lasting memory to cherish. For someone considering hiring Hampton Pipes, look no further, very professional, prompt, if not early, dressed to perfection and courteous. Enjoy every musical note!"

"After I had tried unsuccessfully at other websites to obtain a bagpiper for my uncle's funeral. Immediately after my post at gig master, Victor at Hampton Pipes put me at ease. He not only agreed to perform, but gave amazing suggestions for the event and helped coordinate the best funeral reception I have ever seen. Their performance far exceeded our exceptions. They provided a fair and very reasonable price. I would absolutely recommend Hampton Pipes for your next event! You will not find a better professional with this kind of quality and value for your money. Thank you so much Victor and Kenny at Hampton Pipes for your service and tribute to my fallen love one. "
- Greg M.
Hampton Pipes & Drums’s Response:
"Greg, It was an honor to be part of the tribute to your uncle. Respectfully, Victor & Kenny"

"My husband and I were delighted with the Hampton Pipers. They arrived promptly, looked great and were extremely courtious to our guests. Even though their "play time" was slighty pushed back due to dinner, the pipers not only waited patiently but performed flawlessly. Their performance was the highlight of our party. We plan on seeing more of these talented gentlemen and recommend them highly.
