Funeral Bagpiper in Scotland

The haunting sound of the pipes is a tradition at funerals in Scotland. It would be our privilege to provide this service to you at the most difficult of times.

Welcome to

Scottish Funeral Pipers

Bagpipes have long been associated with both sadness and remembrance, as well as moments of celebration and joy when a piper performs. In Scotland, there is a deeply rooted tradition of having a piper play at funerals and memorials.

We are Funeral Bagpiper for Hire primarily based in Central Scotland, with pipers also available in other areas and willing to travel as needed. Our goal is to assist you in honoring the life of your loved one by providing somber or uplifting funeral music at appropriate times throughout the day of the service.

We are flexible in our approach and will play the pipes at any points during the funeral that you deem fitting. Our services are available for all types of funerals.

Our Funeral Services

A loved one’s funeral is an incredibly private affair. I understand firsthand the immense challenge of planning such an occasion. Deciding when the pipers should perform can be particularly difficult. The memorial service you have organised will be unique and reflective of both your wishes and those of the deceased loved one’s family.

Family Home or Religious Bagpiper

We can play at the family home or religious service prior to proceeding to the next part of the funeral.

Cremation Bagpiper

At a cremation, your piper will typically wait in the driveway for the hearse at the appropriate meeting place and lead the cortège to the crematorium doors.

Burial Bagpiper

Should you require the piper to play as the cortège arrives and leaves the family home or at any religious service prior to the burial, that can be done to suit your requirements.

Ashes Bagpiper

We offer piping services to play at ashes interments and the scattering of ashes to provide a traditional send off at that time.
