As I said in an earlier post in this thread, a good piper who has a variety of instruments and setups at his disposal can play at any volume level that is appropriate, from nearly as loud as a full pipe organ to softer than a single violin. If the piper you're hiring can't do that, in my opinion you should hire a piper who can.
