Dear Pat,
I want to thank you most sincerely for the great kilts we hired from Lapel 1865 for Joanne and Dermot’s wedding on the 14th August, 2010.
My three sons had no bother wearing them as they fitted perfectly and were very stylish. Let me say that they were every bit as good , if not better than the kilts worn by the native Scots.
You supplied all the accessories and showed the boys how to wear them properly. They were reasonably priced.
Thanking you for your professionalism at all times.
Yours sincerely,
Mary Coughlan

Hi Pat,
I just got married on the 3rd of Sept in Dromoland Castle, Co. Clare and I would like to thank you for all your help and professionalism in fitting me and the groomsmen with suits for the day.
The suits were great and everybody had a smashing day out. Thanks again for your help in organising everything at such short notice. You done a great job.
I will definitely not hesitate in recommending you to friends.
I called into Mr Dennehys in NY but your friend was not in at the time. Still had a beer there though. Thanks again for recommending this to me.
Best of luck for the future
Cheers

WEDDDING DANIELLE ENGLISH & CAMERON JONES
24th July 2010
Menswear: Lapel 1865
Is there anything else you’d like to add? Anything or anyone you’d like to mention that wasn’t covered in the above questions?
We were overwhelmed by the help, support and kindness shown from all the Irish people we came across when organising the wedding. A special mention must go to Declan and Pat at Lapel 1865 who did an outstanding job in organising the suit hire for so many Grooms Men, both Dads and the page boys. They provided an excellent service and just couldn’t do enough for us, even going to the extreme of helping me with my dress when it didn’t fit properly a few days prior to the wedding. What would I have done without them! They were so friendly, kind, efficient and professional and we would highly recommend them to anyone organising a wedding.
We were also amazed by the warmth and kindness of Michael English who sang at our wedding. His voice was superb and everyone was blown away by his talent. It was such an honour to have him share our special day and we really do appreciate all his help.
We would like to thank our parents for such a special day, particularly Denis and Diane English for all the rushing around, support and organising they helped us with. We would also like to thank each other for making each others day so perfect.

Hi Pat,
Delighted we called yesterday, the trip was definitely worthwhile and if nothing else comes of it I now own at least half of a very nice suit !
On a serious note both Sinead and I remarked how professional the whole service is compared to what we have been encountering over the last few months and I am also delighted with the suit.
Once again thanks for yesterday and looking forward to hearing from you,
Kind Regards,
Michael

To Pat & Declan and Staff at Lapel1865
Just a quick note to thank you for the time you spent with us for our wedding last Oct 2010.
We ended up going with another vendor much to our cost when we should have booked with you.
We had many issues with wrong sizes , dirty shirts and different jackets and it was a general nightmare which we only got sorted the day of our wedding.
If we could do it again we would have booked with Lapel.
We will be telling all our friends to book with you and again thank you for your time

Dear Pat,
My name is JP Loize, I am captain of Mr. Dennehy’s Football Club. I wanted to personally thank you for the amazing new kit. Donal explained how you set us up first hand with the representatives from Umbro. The kit looks fantastic! It has created a refreshing new buzz within the team.
It’s a true honor to wear the colors of the historic Cosmo’s and the lads are highly motivated. We actually crushed our first opponents 7-1 yesterday in our season debut.
We can only hope we continue to play as good as we look, thanks again…
Many thanks to both you and Donal!
