Bagpiper/Guitarist/DJ- Michael Lancaster

First and foremost, the experience with Michael was amazing. His bagpiping and DJing were perfect, in performance, timing and musical selection management. He honored all our requests and brought his professional expertise to the event. In addition to the outstanding musical aspects, he was professional and obviously experienced in his communications and navigating the event. He worked extremely well with the other vendors in ensuring that we didn't have to worry about anything during the day. He played the bagpipes, managed the music during the cocktail hour and meal, facilitated our grand entrance and toasts during the meal, and DJed like a rock star at the reception. It is an extraordinary value to hire Michael to do all these things and have them done so well! We cannot recommend him enough if you want all those things at your wedding. More...

Outstanding in all aspects. The temp dropped 40 degrees overnight and it was raining. The first thing Michael said to me was don't worry we are going to get you married today. The bagpipes were top notch. The music for the reception was perfect. Not only what was request but he helped with the flow of the event and even tied my tie for me. True professional. Highly recommended. More...

Michael provided the music for our recent wedding at Mirabelle at Beaver Creek. His talent on both the bagpipes and acoustic guitar was stellar and was a significant part of setting an incredible atmosphere for the entire event. Michael arrived early on the Big Day and was kitted out appropriately in Highland Dress. He stood outside Mirabelle playing a medley of highland pipe standards that greeted our arriving guests. He then escorted the Bridal Party into the venue to Highland Cathedral. During the ceremony he played more highland standards to punctuate the beauty and solemnity of the moment. Michael switched to acoustic guitar, playing a range of standards that lent elegance and charm to the cocktail hour and throughout the wedding dinner. His music was lovely and lent to the magical atmosphere. Everyone was charmed by Michael and his talents, noting that his bagpiping was a memorable part of the 4+ hour wedding. We highly recommend Michael for your special event. He was an important element in a beautiful day! More...

We had a great experience working with Michael. He sent us a very thorough guide to complete leading up to our wedding that helped us immensely in organizing our day. He was very responsive and prompt when answering our questions and making changes as needed. He worked great with our officiant, Jane, provided a wireless mic, and his equipment sound quality was incredible throughout the ceremony, cocktail hour, and evening. We are thrilled we chose Michael to DJ/MC our wedding and cannot recommend him enough! More...

Michael was a huge part of making our day so special. My now wife wanted a bagpiper more than anything for our ceremony, and not only is Michael a wonderful bagpiper but also an awesome DJ. He saved us a lot of money by doing both at a much more reasonable price than if we hired two different people. Michael arrived exactly when he said he would despite horrendous traffic that day. His creativity with DJing kept an eclectic group of people dancing all night. He was great with communicating changes and updates as well as adjusting to small changes through out the night. On top of his professionalism, Michael was genuinely a nice guy to work with. More...
