"Our special day was made so much more special with the addition of a real Scottish piper. It was a day that we, and I am sure no one else, will forget - in no small part to Roy's valuable contribution in adding extra flavour, culture and panache. Roy came in complete scottish regalia, performed his music wonderfully and was truly majestic in greeting all the guests to our wedding and in leading us up the aisle. For something different in the Philippines, a small piece of Scottish tradition went a very long way!"

"The sound of the bagpipes made our wedding extra special. People watched in awe as the bold but smooth rhythm of the bagpipe reverberated across the auditorium while butterflies were fluttering about. It felt as if we were in some high place, the music taking us higher. It was an exhilarating experience for everyone, something that will forever be in our hearts".

"I recently had my first solo photography exhibit at the Alcove Gallery of the Filipinas Heritage Library. I availed the services of Roy because I wanted something very special and unique for the event. Roy played music at the driveway of the FHL to welcome my guests. Since the music of a bagpipe is very unique and carries over long distance, Roy even became the unofficial landmark for the venue. Guests who were on their way would call me up on my cellphone to ask for directions on how to get to FHL. I simply gave them general directions and asked to listen for the bagpipe music to guide them."

"Roy's presence and music was a real headturner - pedestrians and cars would slow down just to see where the bagpipe was coming from I had guests who made it a point to arrive early just to hear him play. I highly recommend Roy's services to anyone who wants something unique for their events."

"Rainier and I prepared for our own big day for more than one year. We bought so many magazines and spent many hours surfing for ideas to make sure that every detail of our wedding would be unique. While Victorian theme maybe a bit common already, we still wanted to have that old, rich, simple and yet elegant feel with certain twists. When we have already thought of all the "gimmicks" that we are going to do to surprise our guests, we also got the surprise of our life from one of our principal sponsors who offered Roy to play during the wedding. Perfect! Boy, the offer certainly capped a year and a half of planning! "

"Roy played during the arrival of the entourage and the guests at the church and reception. People were quite amazed to see for the first time a genuine bagpiper dressed in full regalia, not to mention that the color of his kilt is burgundy which is one of our color motif. Most of our relatives and friends are musicians so the Scottish music that was played was such a hit. In fact, it was least unexpected since weddings would usually be highlighted with tunes from brass and strings. But the most unforgettable of all was having Roy lead us outside the church during the recessional. We were showered with petals and confetti as we go out of the church while Roy is playing Scotland the Brave. Twas such a festive atmosphere! Unmistakably Victorian."

"While watching our video coverage, there's so much happiness and pride in our hearts seeing all our guests having a great time. My husband and I are very thankful, and we are certainly glad that Roy-- our royal guest-- was part of our special day. "

"I wish to express my sincere appreciation of the bagpipe performance you gave at the ISM International night at the Fort Bonifacio campus on March 20."

"Your performance truly was the highlight of a wonderful evening and undoubtedly was a major factor in the Scotland booth being awarded 'Best Booth' of the event."

"Your playing of the 'Great Highland Bagpipes' was magical to all who were privileged to have heard you and I hope we see you again at many more Celtic occasions in the Philippine Archipelago."

Being a Scot and marrying here in Manila I was desperate to get a piper to play on our special day.

I had no luck for a long time and the event was getting closer and closer. Then, at virtually the last minute, somebody got me in contact with Roy Espiritu.

He saved our day and made it wonderful for everybody, playing outside the church and later playing my new bride and me into the reception. Roy gave the whole occasion a real Scottish "Flair" !

My Scottish guests were astounded and all my Filipino friends thought it terrific.

Many thanks again Roy the Piper.

Thanks for adding a touch of flair to our wedding. I was watching some of the videos from the wedding and was finally able to see most of the musical performances that I didn't get to see. All my friends & family seem to remember your spots in the program, most significantly, our entry into the main hall (while you were playing). It's a good thing we captured most of the performances, including yours. Thanks again!

Dear Roy,

We would like to send you our heartfelt thanks for everyting that you did in helping to make our wedding day in January the best day of our lives.

It meant a lot ot us that you were able to pipe at the wedding and the reception. The day certainly wouldn't have been the same without your piping. It made a lot of people happy and also was the first time for many to experience the wonder of the pipes...

Best Wishes,
