Wedding CeremonyReviewed on October 17, 2025From New York City, NY

Jerry was great from start to finish. His communication was excellent and he played beautifully for our wedding ceremony. Nothing was too much trouble and the song choices were perfect for the occasion. Highly recommend!

WeddingReviewed on August 17, 2025From Danbury, CT

The NYC Bag Piper was AWSOME. It has been a tradition in our family to have a Bag Piper play at family weddings By far the NYC Bag Piper was the best in all the years of wedding I have attended. He is extremely talented, friendly and accommodating. If you need a piper he is the guy and a tremendous presence. Robert Messemer
