Private Party•Reviewed on April 12, 2024•From Hickory, NC

Robert was wonderful. He is passionate about what he does and loves to make you happy. He fit right in and even joined us for dinner. I highly recommend this fine man.

We chose Mr. White to play various hymns at our father’s celebration of life ceremony. Our father, a WW2 Army Air Corps and Air Force Reserve veteran, was certainly well represented by Mr. White, himself, a retired Green Beret and Vietnam veteran. Mr. White was early to the event, was flexible since we had some last minute changes, and provided some very helpful suggestions. Highly recommend!

Thank you Sir

Robert was resourceful regarding our service, punctual, and well dressed. Our service ended up being delayed and Robert was totally professional as we waited to be able to begin. He helped to make my father and uncle's funeral services at Arlington very special.

Robert did an exceptional job performing at our fundraising event, the music selected reflected the spirit we were wanting. Robert was in constant contact with me before, during and after the event. Highly recommend Robert for your next event.

It was such a great time to have Robert there. He was really accommodating. We wanted a bagpiper really last minute so I’m we could find someone! He knew all the songs and did a great job.

Mr. White played at a military graveside service for a Vietnam veteran. His presence and music brought warmth and dignity to the occasion. He was punctual, professional, and communicated well throughout the process.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on May 15, 2023•From Pinehurst, NC

Robert did a good job performing at our wedding, but he came directly up to the bride and groom as soon as the ceremony ended refusing to leave until he was paid a check despite us providing a deposit and assuring him he would be paid through the app in a timely fashion. Of course, the bride and groom right after the ceremony did not have a check on them, and he became belligerent as the bride and groom took time out of their reception to ask everyone at the wedding for a check and finally got a guest to pay him before he would stop badgering the entire wedding.

Claire. She did notpay or any other person. She still has not paid anything. She knew that contract at the job was to be paid. I showed her friend The contract . Her mother said that I would get my money some time ? I was not belligerent. Claire hired a event planner. She had never planned for a Bagpiper event planner and she did not know the guidelines For a Bagpiper. She sprung the planner on me as a surprise. As for my attitude I did not talk bad to her people. Her mother talked to me and she said I would get the money that Claire owed to me. STILL NOT RECEIVED THE $ 280.00 CLAIRE OWES ME. No one has paid. All the congregation told Me I did a great JOB !

Memorial Service•Reviewed on January 22, 2023•From Raleigh, NC

Robert was great.... very attentive and played beautifully! His rendition of Amazing Grace while walking up to the landing where he continued to play was moving... We received so many compliments from the guests regarding his performance. I would definitely recommend him for any event! Terrific surprise!

Wedding•Reviewed on July 30, 2022•From Corolla, NC

I would hire Robert again and again. He was kind, professional, talented, and just absolutely lovely to work with. He played the bagpipes as guests arrived to my wedding and then piped me down the aisle to “Highland Cathedral.” My Scottish mom was very happy! He and my husband enjoyed chatting as well. As the wife, sister, daughter in law, and sister in law of veterans, it was an honor to have a veteran like Robert participate in my wedding in this special way. 10 out of 10 and highly recommend!!!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on June 17, 2022•From Duck, NC

Robert played at my youngest daughter’s wedding on the beach in duck, NC. He was amazing. He got there an hour before the scheduled time, already tuned up and ready to play. He found the perfect spot on the beach piped in the family, bridal party and piped everyone out. I would highly recommend Robert fir any event. He is very professional and talented piper.

Mr White's playing added a personal and beautiful touch to our ceremony. We enjoyed both his music and his military knowledge.

Mr. White was very helpful in his knowledge of music and was able to help and suggest several options. Everyone at my son's wedding enjoyed his piping. Wonderful surprise for all that attended. Thank you.

Funeral•Reviewed on November 11, 2021•From Tappahannock, VA

I was grateful to find a bagpiper on fairly short notice and who was willing to drive a very long distance. Sadly I only heard one song and part of another. This was for a memorial service and I wasn’t where the pipes were for very long. It was important for me to have the pipes and I am, again, grateful and satisfied for the service provided by Mr. White.

Robert was fantastic! I hired Robert to play at my wedding and he did an amazing job. We spoke over the phone a couple of times before the event to make sure we had times and expectations set and he exceeded all of them. Thank you so much Robert! I would recommend him to anyone looking for a great bagpiper.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on October 25, 2021•From Midlothian, VA

Robert J. White was wonderful, he called when he said would and arrived right on time. He walked to the back yard piping Onward Christian Soldier as we agreed. My dad was so surprised when Mr White came towards him. Everyone loved the music he played. He was kind and respectable. He left as scheduled. Thank you so much for making dad's birthday special. He enjoyed talking with you about the Army!

Robert entertained us with both his music and colorful personality. Being a Macmillan, as am I, was a bonus. His piping was a lovely addition to my son's pre-wedding eve party. Thank you!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on April 28, 2021•From Carthage, NC

Robert White executed his performance flawlessly. I booked Mr. White to surprise my husband on his 40th bday. Mr. White carefully planned his arrival so that he could awe everyone at the party, especially my husband. Mr. White called well ahead of the performance date to work out all the details. Mr. White was so kind to make adjustments to his performance time after a party member was running behind arriving. Everyone enjoyed listening to him play, learning about his gear, and getting to know him. Mr. White was the icing on the cake, the hit of the party. I hope to hire him again for another special occasion.

Thanks again Molly Tell husband and friends Thanks.
