Review by Heather S.

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on October 15, 2012From Dubuque, IA

James has an amazing talent with the bagpipes! My guests truly loved having him incorporated into our wedding! I would recommend him! One negative aspect that did really bother me was that I provided him with a detailed worksheet of how the songs were to be for the ceremony (combining both him on the bagpipes and other songs via a sound system) and he disregarded them. My mother/grandmother and brother chose a specific song that was meaningful to them to walk down the aisle to and the wedding party (minus the groom/father of the bride) was to walk to a different song as well, however because he continued to play the DJ was not able to use those songs.

Jim was fantastic! It is tradition to have bagpipers at our family weddings and several people commented on how great Jim was, or how they wish they knew about Jim before hiring another piper. He was reliable, professional, and had exemplary musical skills.

Mr. Jenkins did everything we asked of him and more. He did a great job and added much to our son's and our new daughter-in-law's wedding. We would most certainly recommend him.

Mr. Jenkins helped to make our wedding a memorable and beautiful event. He was very friendly and personable, and even offered a few ideas for the ceremony that my husband and I benefited from! The music he played was exactly as I had imagined the music would be for my wedding, and the day couldn't have been more perfect. Mr. Jenkins was dependable and comfortable to plan with from the very beginning up until his departure, and I highly recommend his services to anyone who is planning any kind of event!

James was exceptionally easy to talk to he listened to our requests and suggested ways to improve our experience especially at this difficult time. he also liaised with the funeral home himself and arranged times for him to be at our service and the graveside. Overall a very satisfying experience at a most difficult time, would definitely recommend James for any occasion. John & Lisa Bishop (Boland)

Jim was wonderful to have at our event. He was more than willing to listen to our ideas of what songs to play & truly put on a great show. Many people who attended mentioned how great he did.

Mr. Jenkins was awesome to work with. He was prompt, polite, and great at playing the bagpipes. Everyone was thrilled with this exciting party and Jim Jenkins made it the success it was. Thanks Mr. Jenkins!
