Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on November 5, 2017•From Hegins, PA

Hands down Robert was amazing! He had did everything we asked of him, arrived earlier than expected for no extra cost, and made everyone of our guest smile! I would hire him again and again.

Robert, was absolutely fabulous!!! He made my daughter's wedding unforgettable. He paraded everyone from the church to the resort. The guest loved him. He is very talented and played various songs. He was also very professional, and prompt at returning emails. I would definitely recommend, and hire him again. I can't even express how beautifully he played. It was a wonderful experience!! Thank you Robert!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on May 28, 2017•From Washington, DC

Robert played for my mom's 70th Birthday celebration in D.C. I live in Houston and was planning all of this long distance. The plan was to meet at our hotel and do a processional with him leading and playing the pipes to the restaurant. He was so amazing and accommodating. He even hid in the bushes so as not to ruin the surprise! Even more, he did the research as to the best route to the restaurant, he brought his smaller pipes to play inside the restaurant, he played my mom's two favorite songs. He was such a pleasure to work with and he is so so talented! I will never forget the weekend-- when he started playing-- we all got chills. So amazing. Thank you, Robert!

I love leading Processions. It reminds me of playing for Henry the 8th at Revel Grove. MARYLAND RENAISSANCE FESTIVAL.,,THANKS.

Robert did a great job for our wedding! He led a processional from the Naval Academy chapel to our reception a few blocks away. It ended up being an incredibly hot day and he didn't waiver. He really made the moment memorable. Thanks, Robert!

Our family was blessed to have Bob during the burial of my grandfather. It was a nice touch and Bob did an amazing job. The family could not be more pleased. Thank you, sir, for your work.

His music emanating from his bagpipe was simply outstanding ... a professional in every sense of the word ... definitely would hire his services again ...

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on August 29, 2016•From Bethesda, MD

We were a bit disappointed that Bob didn't say goodbye to us and that he left immediately after the ceremony. It's true that there were a lot of people around, but perhaps a quick goodbye would have been possible.

Leila, Your wedding was absolutely beautiful. The Church and service were as beautiful as any that I have seen. I especially enjoyed working with Daniel before the ceremony to play over the Hymn, Slaine, together. I thought the combination of Border pipes, which filled the church with no problem, and the accompaniment of the piano went well, and was exactly what you wanted for your Processional march. I apologize for not saying "Good bye", but it was over 96 degrees, I was wearing wool from head to toe, and I wasn't presentable, being covered in sweat. Bob Mitchell

Funeral•Reviewed on March 19, 2016•From Beltsville, MD

Robert was a true professional and the bagpipes being played as guests entered the church and having Danny Boy played at the recessional were amazing. The priest even asked him to play an extra song. He also went to the cemetery and played as guest arrived and left the service. Absolutely superb!!!! I would Highly recommend Robert!

Bob was a perfect compliment to today's funeral and procession. He handled the entire process professionally, and he was very helpful in song selection. We highly recommend him.

Funeral•Reviewed on January 12, 2016•From Laurel, MD

I retained his services services for the public funeral as well as the following day for the burial. Robert stayed in constant communication, he was punctual, was very respectful and played great. My father was a Bishop so it was a very large funeral. Robert braved 12 degree weather in his kilt on the day of the buried.

I just want to say what a joy it was for me. Reverend Guery was an amazing person and participation in his service was a remarkable experience. R. Mitchell, Jan. 2016.

Event•Reviewed on December 24, 2015•From Rockville, MD

I did send Bob a text to thank him for a such GREAT JOB he did for the memorial of Mike Dempster. He went over and above handeling the logistics with the golf course and the venue. He took all the worries I had, made some great recommendations, and it went off without a hitch. MANY TEARS WERE SHED AT THE FINAL PLAYING OF AMAZING GRACE on the 18th hole. The family, as well as everyone else, was very moved by his performance. I can't tell you how many people made a point of telling me how wonderful he was. I would highly recommend Bob Mitchell for any event and so much appreciate his efforts.

Robert did an outstanding job with being the Piper for our wedding day. His bag piping skills are flawless and if you need a Piper for your special day Robert is the person I'd strongly recommend.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on September 13, 2015•From Nottingham, MD

Bob made a Grand Entrance to the party and created an atmosphere that lasted throughout the event! Not only is he talented, his choice of Tunes were spot-on and his persona was exciting. He gave history of the Pipes, noted the different types of Pipes he played and why. He made our event his own... Thank you Robert Mitchell for making my Mother-in-law's 90 Birthday one that all of us will remember for many years to come. Jackie

Wedding•Reviewed on June 24, 2015•From Swoope, VA

We were very pleased with Roberts performance at our daughter's wedding. He is an excellent piper and his talents added immeasurably to the celebration. He was gracious in extending his time by some degree to fill a rain delay caused by the storms that came through about the same time as the ceremony was to begin. I would highly recommend him. Tony

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on May 7, 2015•From Prince Frederick, MD

Robert Mitchell responded in a timely manner to any emails or phone calls we made. He sent an email outlining all we had discussed regarding what his role was for our daughter's wedding. He was prompt and prepared. He played as he led the guests from the ceremony area to the portico for the cocktail hour. He played during the cocktail hour. He played a variety of songs and his music was enjoyed by our guests.
