GForce was our band for our wedding at Bonnet Island Estate on July 24th, to sum them up is to say they are by far THE BEST LIVE BAND in NJ! Our guests were blown away! Joe Grillo is the absolute best! If your looking for a band for any event look no further this is it!
No one wanted to go home or eat dinner. They covered everything. Best live version of Pride and Joy ever. We had musicians as guest at the wedding and they were blown away. Thank you Joe and the GForce band for the best night of our lives!!!!!
We love you guys!!!!! Boomers rock!!!! Dar and Ed

We hired GForce II (9 piece) for our reception and could not be happier. They kept the dance floor packed the entire night with music we loved . . we even had to move tables out of the way to make the dance floor bigger! They sounded awesome and played great dance music based on our interests. My husband and I love Lionel Richie, so they also learned our first dance (stuck on you) and last dance (all night long) songs for us and it was great. Our guests were raving about the band and I've already recommended them to friends. I would highly recommend them!

Our foundation held our first gala event this year and G Force Band helped make it a huge success. Our guests had a great time in part to the great music and energy provided by the band.

I can't say enough about how great Gforce was at our wedding! My husband and I met booking concerts on our college campus so music is a definite passion of ours and it was really important that we have an amazing band and Gforce was the perfect band for us! All our wedding plans were long distance which made planning a little tricky and had me nervous about vendors and put a lot of stress on the Moms back home -- EXCEPT the band. Joe was so easy to work with, immediately sent the demo cd to us and was easily accessible by email or phone. He was so relaxed and experienced that once we had booked Gforce I had zero stress about the band. He was so accommodating - the band has a HUGE set list and still managed to learn a song for the Father/Bride dance and were happy to play a special cd for the Groom and his Mom that was definitely sent at the last minute. Joe was one of the first people we saw when we entered the reception and he was so friendly, we knew we were in for an excellent reception. I was so nervous about the older family & friends thinking the band was too loud but before the salads were even over my Mom who had been chatting with people came over and said "ok, everyone really loves the band!" The wedding coordinator at the reception location wasn't able to attend the wedding so I was concerned about the flow of the evening and Joe took it all in stride and made the appropriate announcements, working so easily with the food manager so everyone knew what was happening - even reminding the nervous best man to raise his glass at the end of the toast! Gforce played a great variety of music and had everyone from the Minister to the party girls dancing, flowergirls to the ancient Aunts. It was amazing and really made the reception an unforgettable memory! The only complaint was that it was over too soon and I wanted the night to keep going forever!

I have been to numerous weddings with live bands, and G Force I band is by far the best I've seen. I saw one band that probably played as well as them, but did not have the personality or interact with the guests like this band does. They are exceptional extertainers! I know several other parents paid thousands more for their band, and G Force was much better. At our daughter's wedding, with 210 people at a 6 hour reception there were numerous times throughout the night that we looked around and all of the tables were empty and the dance floor packed. They really got the crowd going! We had 9 pieces, and the horns were incredible. We had a very diverse age group and they played something for everybody. Many commented on how close to the original band they sounded with each selection. At other receptions I've been to, the band may start out sounding good, but as the night passes they begin to lose some steam. G Force just got hotter as the night went on. They were great to deal with from prior to signing the contract to the end of the reception. We supplied a CD to them for the special dances and for breaks, but they only took 2 short breaks in 6 hours. This was our second family wedding where they played, and I am sure we will have them at our next family wedding. Many guests told us it was the best wedding they ever attended, and I think G Force has a lot to do with that. Thanks guys.

Our daughter wanted a DJ (over Dad's dead body!!). She, her husband, my wife and I met with Joe G and listened to GForce's demo. The Bride and Groom instantly became converts to the Live Music option. Unlike others, she was NOT "Bridezilla" but had extremely high expectations. As a former professional musician, and the father of the Bride, I had two requirements: make the event memorable for the Bride and Groom, and Entertain our guests.
We were so fortunate to find GForce. From the moment we met, through the entire contracting process, planning cycle, and weeks prior to the event, Joe and the Band were EASY, Flexible, and outstandingly a pleasure to do business with. At our Black-tie reception, the seamless transitions and coordination between the Event Manager, Band, Photographers, and Videographers were flawless, even with slight changes necessitated by the events of the day. My wife and I were thrilled to not have ANY BURDENs and more importantly, the Bride and Groom returned from their Honeymoon on 5/30/08 raving about THEIR day...and the Band "made it."
Our guests were blown away by the continuous music provided by the 10 piece band. Mindy's strength as a female lead vocalist was complimented by the sexy and smoothe R&B vocals of Ricky Collins. The arrangements were unbelievably authentic, 3-4-5 part vocal harmonies accented by the richness of the instrumentations, and the outstnading stage presence of Joe and his team made our event fun, active and sensational.
Thanks Joe and GForce... you EXCEEDED expectations...and based on the calls that we had from the guests, you should be booked for the next 20 years!

GForce Bands has very talented band members, however, you must pair talent with customer service. I was very pleased with almost every one of my wedding vendors, but not them. Their pricing was decent, but I expected a lot more for my money. As the client, I expected more attention to paid to my wishes. The band did not play the songs that we listed as "must plays". They also spent far more time playing dj spun music than they informed us they would. They just didn't get the people on the dance floor and get involved in the way that we hoped for by choosing live music over a dj. Lastly, after the wedding when we tried to retrieve our personal cd's that they asked us to lend to them as backups for our first dance, parent dances, etc. they told us they couldn't find them. Not only couldn't they find our cd's, but they didn't seem to care at all, told us too bad, and stopped responding to our emails. While they are very talented, I would not recommend GForce bands to other prospective couples.

To put it simply...best night of my life!
The CD doesn't do the band justice. In person, they are fantastic! The
MAIN compliment I received after my wedding was just how great the band
was.
The band is extremely professional. They are on time, and ready to party.
They are willing to work with you in terms of setting a theme - if you want
a screaming good time and non-stop dancing - they're on point. If you
want to mellow things out and have a few slow dances for the elders...they'll
do that. The more information you can give them about the "type" of wedding
you want, the better they'll be able to serve you. I had the screaming
good time - non-stop dance version. And it was a bounding success - the band
came out on the dance floor and got involved with the crowd a few times.
And Joe came out with his saxophone a couple times too. SO MUCH FUN!
They did MAKE the wedding. We were fortunate enough to be able to have
the full band, all 10 pieces, the horns were fantastic! If you have the
means, I recommend it highly.
We also used the guitarist for our ceremony. We held our ceremony and
wedding at the Olde Mill Inn in Basking Ridge. The ceremony was outside
and we asked the guitarist to learn a song for me for the entrance that was a
recent U2 song that I love and he nailed it! It really meant a lot to me
and made the day extra special for me.
As far as timing throughout the night, we had a schedule figured out and the band kept to it. But at one point my husband and I needed a moment to breathe. So we worked with Joe to rearrange things a bit and he was very accommodating.
All in all, a phenomenal night, and I'd recommend him to anyone. I feel that live music really adds so much depth to a wedding reception. Skip the
videographer and spend on the band!
