To Joan and Helen,Thank you so must for making our wedding day special.
Everything was perfect, everybody love the kilts (Irish national). Great service. Thank you,
Jim Fitzsimmons

Thank you for making all three of our childrens wedding the talk of the town.
Both our boys bridal party wore the kilts but when our daughter got married, just her father,
brothers and nephew wore the kilt. The people from Wisconsin didn't know what to make of it , that the Irish
not only know how to party, but also how to dress. But they were all beautiful weddings.
Thanks again for offering your services. And Helen is a doll. Thank you,

Dear Jock, I just wanted to let you know that the piper you sent to our daughter's wedding Saturday,
6/22/02, was wonderful! It was a hot day, but he still played non-stop. We had a lot of people comment on
what a great "touch" is was to have a piper.
Thanks, Jackie Wampler

Jock and Company:
The belt and socks, to complete my wedding outfit, were delivered within 24 hours of my
online order. WOW!!! My kilted Quaker wedding (just me in kilts) will be June 15. Thank you very much,

John,
You played at our wedding on October 2, 1999 at the Union League Club in New York. My husband is Jewish and I am Protestant, so we had a 12 minute brief wedding and when you came out to pipe us out, it was the most special moment of the evening for me. My grandfather, Gordon Macgregor, played the pipes and it was my dream to have him play for my wedding. Unfortunately he had passed away 10 years prior, so you brought him to us. My husband's family, being Jewish, thought you had come to the wrong wedding! We all had a good laugh!

I now have my grandfather's pipes in my possesion and have promised to carry on the family tradition. The pipes have not been played in over 15 years I'm afraid and I must get them refurbished before trying my hand. Any suggestions of where I can have this done? I live in Manhattan, so any suggestions in the city would be helpful. Also, any suggestions of where I can take lessons in Manhattan? I promise I won't take away your wedding clients! Thanks again,
Paul and Angie Newman

Jock, Been to your store many times as was stationed in NJ. Had dinner at the restaurant and was always true to Scottish form. Please send a catalog. There seems to be nowhere around here to find Scottish items and there are quite a few personnel here that would like to explore their roots better. Any contacts in this area? I miss Jersey!

Dear Joan and John,
Love your web site. I was wondering if you had a tartan or could tell me which tartan would be the closest for the name Gorman. I believe the family may have come from counties Clare and Monoghan. I would love to own one!! Thank you very much.

We all had a great time at last night's Robert Burns dinner.

I can't tell you how grand it was to see Pipers Cove doing so well after all these years. As a student of Duncan McCaskill's and George Bell's you can imagine how immersed I was in the bagpiper's world and lifestyle. As years have passed since I last played and even more since I saw you, the yearning and need to play has finally caught up with me. I still cannot get over the advances in technology (which end of the SM-90's goes in the drone?). Even more wonderful than these advances is the fact that you are both still as warm, caring, and devoted to the pipers and drummers as I remember. You took your time with me and tolerated my open-mouthed awe and ignorance of the new equipment. Again, I cannot thank you enough for being who you are and continuing to do what you obviously love so dearly. God bless and keep a good heart.
Sincerely Yours,
Craig Nadeau

You have made all of those who enter your store feel like family...Look forward to many more years of business with you...P/Sgt Mark James

HI, we are originally from Edinburgh Scotland we have only been here a year but we miss the food back home so bad, so when somebody from my husband's job told him about this place we had to go for ourselves. We live in Buchanan NY. Well anyway I though i had died and went to heaven that's Chocolate heaven you understand, we bought so much I think I will live on it for a while, We also had fish and chips the kids had mince pies. We all HAD smiles all the way home that night, so please stock up because I will be back.

Dear Joan and Jock,
Just a short note to say thank you for all the help and kindness you have shown this new Bagpiper. As a member of a new band we have had to make a lot of big decisions. The first was our instructors,John Bradley for the pipes and Andy White on the drums. These choices have been wildly successful. The choice of Pipers Cove as our outfitter has also been a wise one. The Shepherd Bagpipes are awsome and we can't wait to get the Kilts. Your support of the band as well as the individual piper is the reason we are moving along so well. Having 25 new pipers coming thru the doors bugging you all the time must get tiring. On a personal note when ever I have needed help to play some where, you have come though me. Your kindness has let me participate in some events that have meant a lot to me. Obviously bagpiping is much more than business to you both. I look foward to many years working with Pipers Cove and you Jock and Joan.

Please send catalog! We are throwing my parents a 50th wedding anniversary party. We want to do the theme in Scottish, English and Irish. We wanted to dress in the Bruces Kilts but cannot afford for three of us. Any ideas what we could wear that would represents the Bruces name. We are also looking for Bagpipers for the party also. We want this party to be a family history gatherings.

Please send me a catalog! I was born in Scotland of two Scottish parents and emigrated to the US at an early age. My parents, however, raised my sister and I in a very Scottish "environment", so we both cherish our roots greatly! I'd love to see your merchandise with an eye to buying Christmas presents! Thank you very much!

Hello! I was your overseas customer (Germany) for several years. I am back in the states now and will be referring a Cpt Raymond, US Army to you for a practice chanter. You'll have to ship to Kosovo. Thanks for your continued support.

I grew up in Kearny, attended St Cecelia's (in the 50's) and many a fond memory of Argyle Fish & Chips on Fridays. Kearny pipe bands provided the impetus for me to learn the lowland/border pipes and for that I am ever grateful.

We love coming down to Kearney for a pint in the Scottish Club but you can't go home without stopping in for your fish and chips and of course the chocolate at the Pipers Cove. We are also getting our kilts for our wedding made there. They are very helpful (even when you are drunk). Thnaks Joan and Jock.
