Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on April 29, 2018•From New Brunswick, NJ

Jerry came to surprise my boyfriend for his birthday and did a fantastic job. He is a wicked good pipe player! Everyone loved it, even the staff at the venue! I would highly recommend Jerry for any event. Thanks again!

Jerry, was so sweet, kind, polite and fun. Showed up on time and was very pleasant and talented.

An absolute professional who brings a narrative to the performance that delighted our guests — tying the instrument to its history (multicultural) and communicating his personal relationship with playing the pipes.

The NYC Piper was amazing at our wedding. He is exceptionally talented and very personable. Having the bagpiper was the perfect surprise gift for the groom from the bride. The NYC Piper was amazing as he played outside the church and then led the wedding guests through the streets of Brooklyn to the Reception. It was perfect. Our guests loved the bagpipes. The NYC Piper helped to create an amazing and very memorable wedding day. Thank you NYC Piper. Gloria & Eric 10/28/17

Working with Jerry for our special day was absolutely the best decision we could have made! We still cannot hear bagpipes without getting misty eyed thinking about our wedding day. Jerry is an amazing and talented artist and we feel so blessed to have him be part of our special day. He is professional and courteous and everything you could ask for in a performer. We highly recommend him for your event. His bagpiper skills are simply stunning and his kilt and attire was gorgeous. He made our wedding ceremony so memorable. Guests are still gushing. Highly recommend Jerry! Amazing man.

Wedding•Reviewed on August 1, 2017•From Newark, NJ

Jerry is simply the best! We basically had over 500 guests at our wedding and his level of professionalism was an A++. Our guests enjoyed his performance and he gave me the grand entrance I needed as a bride. I highly recommend Jerry.

Wedding•Reviewed on July 28, 2017•From Brooklyn, NY

Wedding ceremonies can be boring...and I wanted to make ours as special as possible, while integrating "surprise elements" for our guests. Jerry played "the Bridal March" as I walked down the aisle with my stepdad and it was beautiful. He wore a uniform that had an NYPD badge with was an honor for my stepfather, a retired NYPD detective. And my father who is Welsh/Irish loves bagpipes, and although he couldn't walk me down the aisle (he's disabled), the tune brought tears to his eyes. As my husband and I walked back down the aisle together, Jerry piped us out to some upbeat Scottish tunes. Jerry stayed and mingled with the crowd, posing for photos. A true gentleman.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on June 25, 2017•From Califon, NJ

We hired Jerry for our wedding, he was terrific, great piper, proffesional, easy to work with, and good with the guests. He was also able to improvise, which was very helpful because we didn't have a specific plan for him when he arrived. Overall, we were very happy and would hire him again.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on April 11, 2017•From New York City, NY

Jerry was the highlight of my father's 80th birthday party. He played requests, chatted with all the guests and was integral to the overall success of the event. I would highly recommend him!

Memorial Service•Reviewed on April 3, 2017•From New York City, NY

We loved Jerry! He was professional but also very warm and kind, especially in the circumstances. My mother, whose memorial service he was performing for, was smiling down at him and us throughout. Jerry was extremely accommodating with our event. He came early and played outside the church to alert attendees where to go, especially helpful when the service was slightly delayed as one of the family members was late. His playing and his appearance in full kilt and traditional garb was perfection. Thank you for sending him to us! Sincerely, Nancy Matthews

Jerry our NYC piper was amazing. He did a wonderful job playing and interacting with my guest. Having him perform at ou St Patrick's Day party made it extra special for me and my guest. I would highly recommend his services.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on March 18, 2017•From New York City, NY

Jerry was the best musician, with wonderful sounding bagpipes. He was a stellar professional from start to finish! As a bride, it was a dream come true to hear the bagpipes as we entered the Church and as I walked down the aisle with my Dad. Jerry did a wonderful service for my family, and his talent and graciousness will be a wonderful memory to cherish for myself and all our friends and loved ones. Everyone was crazy about Jerry's performance,and the guests were clamoring for photos with him. Thank you so much for the the fine and priceless work, Jerry! It made our wedding just perfect!

Jerry was punctual, helpful in the lead-up to the event, and in picking the right songs. Would recommend him any time.

Wedding•Reviewed on August 31, 2016•From New York City, NY

Jerry was excellent to work with, and I'd recommend him for any event. We hired him to play as our guests exited the church after our wedding ceremony in NYC. Communication with him via email was easy, and we simply requested a few songs while leaving the rest up to him. He was in great attire and timed his start perfectly as guests were exiting. He even continued playing as our wedding party walked down the street to the area where we were taking pictures - was a big hit with all of our guests and passersby!

Wedding•Reviewed on December 25, 2015•From Branford, CT

Jerry is the real deal. As a surprise for the bride at her wedding, her comment was "He's legit! Jerry was sharp, prompt, communicative, accommodating and cheerful. He went out of his way to acknowledge the bride and her family. If you've ever heard pipers that are of only mediocre talent, you appreciate someone who can play well. The music was moving and beautiful. The guests were amazed and beaming with delight at our surprise entertainment! Thanks so much for helping to make my daughter's wedding day extra special.
