Hey everyone!! I am just starting to put together my plan for ceremony music, and I was wondering if anyone has had a bagpiper at an OUTDOOR wedding venue, and how that went. Did you have other musicians too? I only want the piper on the processional and recessional, so I want a string quartet for the rest. I am interested in orchestrating (pun intended) Highland Cathedral as the processional with a string quartet, but I'm wondering where I would position my piper. I think outdoor venues may have the potential to tone down the reverberation of the piper enough that it isn't overwhelming.. but I don't want to drone out the strings! I was thinking maybe putting the strings on a sound system, and positioning the piper a little further away from the crowd so he/she isn't so loud! Thoughts? has anyone else tried this?
Thank you!!!!
