There is nothing better than marching behind a pipe band ( which I have done on numerous occasions ). It makes you march tall with your chest out and a wee swagger in your step and it makes you awfully proud to be Scottish.
When my time on Earth has come to an end I want a good pipe and drum band to send me off . Of course the pipes and drums bring my spirits soaring so much I might just come back to life to enjoy their playing.
My mother has said that for yrs! And she also wants The Parting Glass ,from Tommy Makem & The Clancy Bros to b played while everyone has a Jameson's in hand!🍀☘🍀
As a fire fighter and going to a fallen brothers funeral is very emotional hearing a large number of bagpipes and drums piercing through you is something to experience. Congratulation on your wedding a long and happy one.
Years ago at the Detroit Auto Show right out of now where by the new Buicks a Pipe and Drum Line came straight through the COBO Hall at full song just tearing the air with the sound. It was Amazing and Moving. I loved it, Made me proud to be a human.
How many thumbs up can I give to this amazing moment? Kudos to the pipes and drums, to the best man and everyone who arranged. All the best to the bride and groom. This was super marvelous and sure signals the start of an amazing life together. May God bless the couple. Always. Go Army, Beat Navy!
@@theluckyblackbird Thelu that must been so nice to hear everytime i hear the band p i have few tears thinking of my mum she was a twin they came out from Scotland when she was 4years old
FYI when the bride and groom take their first. It is THEIR first dance. Get off the dance floor, get your kids under control. It is a respect thing. Beautiful! Love It! The band is really great to interwind the bagpipes.
@@ianj843 after the first dance with bride/groom, bride/father, groom/mother then everyone can dance. It is about them this one day not the family or little girl wanting to show off.
This American will never forget the pipers that were at my wedding…. Congratulations on your wedding. May your lives together be filled with love and laughter!
I don't know how I ended up at this video, but I'm sure glad to see it, was amazing! We'd considered having a piper for our wedding but the logistics just didn't work and seeing this now I wonder what it would have been like for us. Epic awesome surprise, very moving, best of luck to the bridge and groom!!
This would've been great on it's own with the cute little 'Good Luck Fairy' running circles around the lucky couple during their dance, but the pipe band was the icing on the cake!
We had a piper at our wedding. It was fantastic. Makes you so proud to be Scottish. Hope you both have a beautiful and wonderful life together. Lots of love from Glasgow Scotland.xx
We have a friend , he is a piper, and he was playing at the 50 years anniversary of our wedding. It was fantastic and the guests dit like it very well. We live in The Netherlands and doing the Scottish Highland dances, Reels, Jigs and Strathpey.
I just came across this..wow..such a beautiful couple..I hope is life is good to you..to see the lads wearing Irish style kilts ,giving orders in Gaelic, blasting the pipes gave a moistness to my eye but as usual a firmess to my knuckles..Eireann go braigh
The Navy Mess Dress Uniform was one of my favorites. I wore it very few times but enjoyed it when I wore it... The groom is a Navy Lieutenant (O-3) and equal to an Army of Air Force Captain) and wears two gold stripes. I was a Navy Master Chief Petty Officer - My rating badge was gold and I had eight gold hashmarks when I retired. Of course, any enlisted is junior to any officer but, that was lots of gold up and down my left arm.
I got to say, I LOVE that song!!! First heard it on "Billy Connolly's World Tour of Scotland", me and my Dad really enjoyed it. We used it at his funeral in 2018. I now have VERY watery vision. Thank you, and I wish you both ALL happiness and prosperity in your future life together. ☺
Wow that dress is beautiful. Iv got alot of medals there on chest. So thankful for your service. Wish u both the happiest of Happy Times. I hope God bless u with the best of all life
My Scottish founded town in south-western Ontario has the pipeband march down the mainstreet in the summer every Saturday night (pre-covid of course) Once the band goes by everyone walks behind them, it's amazing. Then once a summer it's mass-pipeband march where 7-8 different bands come to town for the march...... goosebumps are a-plenty when you hear 50 pipers break into Scotland the Brave!
@@toddthompson7279 In Glasgow every year at the world pipe band championships , the grand finale and presentations take place with around 2000 pipers and drummers involved , its enough to stir the heart of every scot within miles and the sound is amazing. You should try and get here sometime, if you do I'll buy you a little whisky to celebrate
Amazing vocals from the singer in the band, who are they please ? ...! Pipe band awesome ...massive goosebumps, smiling from beginning to end...😍 such a happy video x
Wishing you great happiness in your married life. Cuodos to the band and particularly the singer. He has an unbelievably great voice. I could listen to him and his band.
That's beautiful to see that on a joyous occasion. Is it retired firefighter unfortunately the only time we heard that music was when we lost one of ours may God bless all the fallen
I thought the commands were in Irish and an Irish Defence Forces band ? The 28th is an Ulster battalion alright, based in Finner Camp, Ballyshannon, Co. Donegal which is right beside Belleek Co. Fermanagh.
Looks like these lads are indeed serving members of Óglaigh na hÉireann / Irish Defence Forces, also by their dress coming from a Cavalry /'CAV' Unit at that.
That's the effect bagpipes have at times. As a 50 year old Scotsman, I'm not ashamed to admit my eyes filled with tears as well, and I don't even know this lovely couple. I think they chose the perfect song for it as well.
WOW!!!! If I should ever find a woman to marry, I hope to be suprised that way.... And also be married in uniform... WOWSER!! What a wedding crash... It's legendary....
American military uniforms in the crowd, the salut at the end. This is a wedding of an American soldier to an Irish women in Ireland and someone is very connected in order to get the pipers and drumers of the IDF to the wedding. There is alot of American ranked military in that room. Good stuff.
@@christianbeauchamp9187 great pipes or Highland pipes are Scottish and exported to Ireland by way of Irish Regiments in the British Army adopting the great Highland (Scottish) pipes. Sorry to be pedantic but Hay ho.
Last night we resolved not to watch any of the dross on the dozens of TV channels that we have and set off on an evening of Flash Mobs on UA-cam. We recommend it highly. Smiles by the mile !
Check out the Pipe Bands on St Patrick’s day outside Pollagh Church, Achill Island. 5 bands and two school bands play before Mass and after Mass. Them March 3 miles to the Dookenella Church to repeat all. The day starts at 6 am and bands return to their own villages in the evening. 🇮🇪💕
Find out where they’re having the Scottish / Irish games and you should be able to find some players there. We have one in Midland/Odessa every year. I think some of them are called Celtic Festivals too. Best of luck to ya.
Came across this via Van Morrison's then Billie Connolly's version (the very best) However, thought this video of the groom and bride was beautiful and heart warming. A' the best from this Aberdonian
The Scottish in me comes out when I hear pipes and drums!! A love that cannot be described.
Its an Irish pipe band
Saffron kilts, irish

Interesting. Explain it to those of us who don't know the purpose

Hearing the pipes, makes me so emotional. And congratulations on your wedding, all the very best for the future.

The kids running about are part of the wedding they are not there to be seen and not heard

Great vid. Both bands in tune. Always love to hear bands of the Irish defence forces especially pipe bands.😁
I always get so emotional listening to the pipes and drums great job. Congratulations your wedding. Shout out from Canada
The Bride is just beautiful! The bagpipes were awesome. God bless.
Loved her dress. May they both be happy together for ever.
There is nothing that beats pipes and drums, especially when they are this good!
You said it Brett Knutsen
What is the name of the song and who sings it ????
Love transition from ‘Irish Heartbeat’’ (Van Morrison & The Cheifians) and the Pipes & Drums 👍👍👍

Really love this song 🎵& to hear the pipes & drums 🥁 come into play in this on there marriage 💑is absolutely amazing
