Bagpipers Question (repost)

Does anyone know how much a bagpiper costs? My friend from college is doing this for free but we plan on tipping him whatever it would cost bc it is just beyond generous and we want to...TIA

Re: Bagpipers Question (repost)

i remember contacting Celtic Pipers just a few months before my wedding. They responded through email a few times and then we decided not to spend the extra money. I believe it was around $800 or $900 for two pipers and a drummer. He seemed very nice and always responded quickly to my emails. HTH!
