Christian did a great job. He knew exactly what to do as he has done many weddings you could tell. He was there on time and responsive. He played some great wedding music and it made the wedding day so much more special!
Easy to work with. Great musician! Will def book Christian again.
From the getgo, Christian has been one of the most professional individuals I've worked with (checking in, taking requests, giving recommendations, etc). Basically wanted to see my parents have a good time at their anniversary, so I asked Christian to keep it a surprise and he was awesome with that. His selection of music varied and moved some of the guests emotionally, which is great IMO. My Mom gave me a thumbs up so I think my inheritance is secured, thanks Christian!
Christian did a great job performing for our St. Patrick's day party. He not only preformed great but he stuck around and talked with a lot of the guests. We will use Christian again in the future!
People were absolutely in awe when he played for the Recessional. I had so many comments after at the reception. Thank You Christian
Response from Christian Hunter - Highland Bagpiper:
I love hearing this! Thank you so much for the feedback!
We had Christian perform while guests arrived to our wedding ceremony location. We have received so many compliments on his playing, and he really set the mood for the rest of the event! Christian was helpful, dependable, and super easy to work with!
Christian played at a family members memorial service. He did a wonderful job and added so much to the service. I'd hire him again!
Everyone was so touched by Amazing Grace and Highland Cathedral. Thank you for a wonderful tribute to my father-in-law. God Bless you.
Christian is a pleasure to work with. He performed at the memorial for my brother, held in an outdoor setting near Geneva.
His performance was perfect! Simply gorgeous.
In addition, he wore a McLeod tartan necktie, the tartan of the College of Wooster and my brothers alma mater.
Also, I had requested The Parting Glass and Christian learned it in time for the ceremony. Hence, above and beyond.
I highly recommend Christian Hunter!
Christian played our wedding recessional at the Old Arcade and it was absolutely fantastic! He sounded great, was dressed in full garb and all of our guests loved it and it took our ceremony to w new level!! Definitely hire him for your next event!
Christian performed at our wedding. Our wedding ceremony went perfectly thanks to his professionalism and talent. So grateful for his contribution that made our day even more memorable for my husband and me as well as our guests.
Christian played the bagpipes at our wedding and was absolutely wonderful. He was easy to communicate with, on time, and very talented. We are so glad we decided to use him! Thanks again.
Response from Christian Hunter - Highland Bagpiper:

Response from Christian Hunter - Highland Bagpiper:
Thanks Brad! That’s was the coolest and weirdest gig I’ve ever played. It was awesome! Cheers!
I hired Christian to play the bagpipes outside of a nursing home for St. Patrick's Day 2021. He was amazing!!!! He arrived early and his music was beautiful. All the residents enjoyed!!!!!!
If you are looking for a bagpiper for any occasion - Christian is your man. He is skilled, professional and will add an extra special flavor to your special event. Christian just recently entertained our birthday party group. His upbeat personality, flexibility and ability to positively connect to our group added that extra touch to our occasion. Thank you Christian - you helped create a wonderful memory for all of us.

Kind and considerate
Thank you

Christian was a perfect addition to our small Irish bday celebration. He was prompt, dressed in the full garb, and was so kind and fun. We will definitely use him again in the future, if needed.
Christian was just great. He added a whole layer of meaning to our service -- and really made it special. He was very accommodating in terms of musical selection and was just what we'd hoped for. Really appreciate his work and how easy gigsalad was to find him and to use.
We hired Mr. Hunter for our daughter's college graduation. Since her ceremony was no longer going to be held in person due to COVID-19, we thought it would be great to have her walk behind him, while he played the bagpipes, throughout our neighborhood. It was so fun and he was such a great sport! He arrived on time, communicated with me prior to the event, asked for my input on song selection, was professional, and really helped make the day special. He was worth every penny! I would HIGHLY recommend hiring Christian Hunter for your next event.
I hired Christian on very short notice. He arrived right on time, ready to go. Played for my wife on our anniversary (we had a bagpiper at our wedding 19 yrs. ago) and brought some joy during this otherwise difficult period of quarantine. The entire street enjoyed his performance and made us feel normal for a little while. I recommend him highly.
Christian did a great job. He showed up on time and communicated well. I asked for 1 song Amazing Grace for a graveside burial. Thought he could have done the 2nd verse for $160 but it was a beautiful job none the less.
Price Range: $175 and up, depending on gig details.
