Best Band Ever

When my wife and I were describing our ideal wedding, we aren't very traditional and just wanted to have a big party with our friends and family to celebrate. As long as our guests were having a good time, then we would be. For me, live music was a must, and was really the only thing I got entrusted with. 

Taylor, Bryan, and the rest of the GFR crew was amazingly easy to deal with. Straightforward, honest, and to the point. Once we committed to them, they took all the stress out of planning the music, MC'ing, and sound for the wedding. Knowing now all the curveballs and little things leading up to the wedding day, being able to outsource all of that stuff is an amazing value in of itself.

As far as the actual music went, my expectations were high and still got blown away. The ceremony and cocktail hour music was on point - tasteful when it needed to be, and still got the hair standing up my neck during those key moments. The first dance and parent dances were amazingly true to the records, but not too long (just in case you can't dance, like me). 

However, the reception sets were simply on another level. Multiple guests told us that it was the best band they'd ever seen, no qualifiers. GFR kept the energy humming from end to end, and it felt like a concert, weaving songs together with the crowd screaming for the encore. 

I know I'm just a guy from the internet, but if you've gotten this far, just give them a call and check this box off your list and thank me when you're rubbing your feet and laughing about how sore your legs are from dancing at the best night of your life.

Best Wedding Band!

We had the most incredible experience with Great Family Artists at our wedding. The setlist was perfect, and the performers were not only talented but also so much fun. They truly made our day special by being accommodating and making sure to include our favorite songs.

Throughout the process, the team at Great Family Artists was professional and responsive. They listened to our requests with great attention and really understood the vibe we were going for. This made us feel heard and valued as clients, which was very reassuring.

Thank you to the entire team for helping make our wedding day absolutely perfect and unforgettable!

GFA is the Gold Standard

It’s difficult to put our appreciation for Great Family Artists into words on a review here. They were absolutely amazing for our wedding. Their attention to detail, attentiveness on planning and communication, and musical expertise is unmatched. Their management team comes from the live music industry and has mastered the ability to pair musicality with event planning - all while handling crazy requests and family members with a smile.

We come from a long background of live music (and so did our guests), and everyone was blown away by GFA and their song selection. This is no generic band operation. They understand the fluid and intricate nature of event planning and work directly alongside you to ensure everyone is where they need to be down to the minute.

They worked with our videographer to share audio and had musical and PA solutions for every step of the night.

Plus they just absolutely brought the funk. Such a perfect set that played to all generations of taste.

The preliminary musical selection process with them was super fun and easy as well. They have done this before.

Audio quality went off without a hitch across musical and vocal PA needs, and it was clear the band understood how to read the crowd and room and play to our energy (best hora ever played).

GFA set the tone for one of the best nights of our lives and the feedback from our guests validates our investment in them. If you are serious about your music choice - don’t mess around with anyone else. Seriously. It’s worth it. GFA will get it done for you. We’re so grateful for them.

As an event planner I work with different bands all the time, and this band is THE BEST! Jordan, the band leader, is so nice, and he will go above and beyond for you to make the planning process easy. On the day of your event this band will blow you away and keep everyone dancing! If you want a really good band, I highly recommend hiring GFR!
