Great Family Artists

lineup that included horns and a full percussion section, as well as Por La Paz for our ceremony & cocktail hour. When I was told, “Ashley, this is your music festival - you’ll get whatever mix of styles you want!”, I knew it was the right fit. The preparation for the event was so detail oriented, and the level of musicianship on the stage was incredible. EVERYONE was on the dance floor and raved about them afterwards.

he GFR family (Bryan, Taylor, Liv etc.) and they have all been equally as helpful, talented and charismatic! They helped us with an unconventional first dance song without hesitation, included family members in their performance, and brought so much energy and love to our reception. 1/2 of our night was spent fielding questions from our guests … “who is this band?!” We absolutely recommend GFR for everyone. They really know how to take your vision and make it all you wanted and more.

ow awesome the band is. Taylor and Bryan were incredible to work with. It is very easy to get in touch and schedule calls with them, and their enthusiasm in the lead up to the wedding really helped get us excited and not just stressed. During one of our first calls with them I mentioned a couple songs that I really liked from John Mayer and expressed that I didn't think they would make good wedding reception songs. To my surprise they had noted what I had said and found a way to make one of them work and it was one of the best parts of the night for me. Do yourself and your guests a favor and book this band.

nt! They were so easy and flexible to work with and accommodated to every we wanted. Our formal dances were so perfect and the entire night our crowd was on the dancefloor. Everyone at our wedding is still raving about how amazing this band way! I would recommend GFR to ANYONE! They are absolutely amazing! I did not want them to stop playing and I wish we could relive this day!!

E on the dancefloor - and they did just that. We still have friends, grandmas, and even our OTHER vendors asking us who our wedding band was, because they were just THAT good. The planning process with GFRB was so fun and easy, every person we met with was professional, knowledgeable, and just really cool people!! If you're looking for an epic party totally customized to your music taste, hire GFRB!

R exceeded our expectations (which were high to begin with!!). The dance floor was packed the entire night and the flow of the setlist was perfect and the right mix of exactly what we were looking for. I cannot recommend them any higher, they are a crazy good value for the unbelievable experience you receive. If you are a smart person you will book GFR for your wedding.

first dance and played them perfectly. Book them now, you won't regret it!

tive) sherpa... expertly guiding us to exactly the vibe we were looking for. The entire process was seamless and even mundane tasks like billing etc were professionally managed and the team had very clear communication. Most importantly, my fiance and I wanted a PARTY and the GFR band absolutely delivered. The dance floor was packed from start to finish, the muscians were all extremely talented and the setlist was perfectly curated for for the mood. Thanks team!

agement team made the planning process leading up to the wedding seamless and easy, and we always came away feeling confident that they were going deliver the rocking concert that we were looking for. Thanks again!

commendations to heart and tailored an unreal experience that didn't alienate anyone. The duet for the ceremony was beautiful, the Trio was awesome for our cocktail hour and the full 8 piece band just killed it for the reception! We didn't want it to end. Thank you Taylor, Bryan and Jonathan for truly making our wedding one to remember.

y are their musicians incredible, but working with them prior to the wedding day was seamless -- they were responsive, professional, and fun. Not only that, but they even let our friend join the stage during our wedding to sing Prince's song "1999". 5/5 stars!

packed dance floor all night, but that was about the extent of what we knew. Jonathan was able to guide us through the process of timeline set up, song selections, and other logistics. He was SO friendly, easy to talk to, and knowledgable. GFR was always on top of everything during the planning phase, including reaching out to all of the other vendors to coordinate everything that went into the wedding night. We also had some special requests for our first dance song & parent dances, and the GFR team sent us several different cuts to choose from. On the night of the wedding, they delivered far beyond what we could have ever dreamed of. They kept the party going all night long, their energy was electric, and they were just plain awesome. Every guest was raving about how great the band was. At the end of the night, our guests were chanting "One More Song!!" We did not want the party to end thanks to GFR. Seriously - book them for your wedding!

GFR was also incredibly organized and made our lives that much easier as we planned everything else. We would give them 10 stars if we could.

he memories we made from the GFR’s performance. I would 100% recommend GFR for any event in the future.

out the band and rave that it was the best wedding band they have ever seen. This team of talented musicians handled music for every aspect of our wedding, from a two-piece acoustic set at our ceremony, to a three-piece instrumental group for cocktail hour, and finally a five-piece band for the reception. The band covered genres from pop and R&B to rock and even jam band music. Besides the sheer musical talent of the band members, what impressed us most was the song choices. They clearly took the time to research the music that we love based on our initial phone calls and emails. With that said, the communication leading up to our wedding was incredibly professional by their band manager, Bryan. He asked all the right questions to determine what type of music we enjoyed and what vibe we wanted to create. Overall - Regardless of your musical taste, GFRB will guarantee an amazing event for you!

liver. First off, GFR has incredibly talented musicians. The musicians have a large repertoire of music that they play from which spans any genre you'd want, they're able to take special song requests that they'll learn and arrange, and probably most important of all, they're a tight band and sound great. Second, working with Jonathan was fantastic. He made the whole process easy without sacrificing attention to detail. He's organized, friendly, can read the room, and is a great MC. My wife and I had a lot of questions throughout the planning stages, and he always had a great attitude and was there to help. He's prepared for anything. Third, the rest of the GFR team is great. They're there so you don't have to get in the weeds on things like logistics, coordinating with the venue, curating every song on the setlists, etc. They handle all that so you can focus on the big picture and let the professionals take care of everything else. Between Jonathan and his team, you'll be in great hands. From start to finish, whatever band you hire will help tell the story of your wedding. They'll set the tone leading up to the ceremony. They'll get people comfortable during cocktail hour. They'll set the pace for the dance sets during the reception. They'll play one of the biggest parts of the day, and GFR will do an exceptional job at all of that and more, with ease. They will match your vision of your wedding if you have one, and they'll help you figure out what that vision is if you don't. You and your guests will have the time of your lives with GFR. Highly recommended!

choices reducing our stress level considerably. During the wedding, the sound was great for the ceremony. The band then killed it at the reception no one wanted to leave the dance floor at the end of the night. If you’re debating wedding bands in the Denver area, don’t think twice, book great family reunion!

y completely made the wedding. All we heard about from our guests after was "that band was the best we've ever seen!!" You can't go wrong with this crew. They will do everything you ask and are able to take the ideas you want for music and bring it to life perfectly. BOOK THEM!! Worth every penny!!! -Kelly & Derek

k through selections. I highly recommend!!

exactly the types of songs we said we were hoping for and they had amazing energy the entire night! Many of our guests said it was the best wedding band they had ever seen and guests at the wedding of all ages stayed until the very end of their set! (~midnight). Do not look any further, hire this band!

ighest quality. If you want to dance till your legs get sore go ahead and hire "The Great Family Reunion". We had a great experience with this band!

xtremely helpful through the entire process. We're a music loving family and group of friends, and we have received non-stop compliments about how awesome the band was. Would highly recommend GFR!

m and they were flexible and understanding. I can't even count how many people raved about the band, said it was the best music they'd seen at a wedding, or asked where we found them. They truly made our wedding what it was and our dance floor was LIT. I can't recommend them enough. If you're considering hiring them, just do it.

Talking Heads, LCD Soundsystem, multi-generational hits, etc. GFR could play it all and they added a few surprises in their setlist for me that had the energy with our friends and family at 1000%. Our initial discussions with the band helped build our vision and vibes we wanted through the night and how the tempo would build up from start to finish. The whole team was amazing to worth with, communication was excellent, and we could not be more grateful that they were a part of our special day. I'm even more excited I'll get to see them again in a couple weekends for a friend's wedding that I recommended them for. We did an 8-piece band and everyone was so energetic and amazingly talented. They are seriously worth every penny and an absolute pleasure to work with.

s the music- which was KILLER!!! I had several people tell me they’ve never seen a dance floor so packed for so long at a wedding. I barely left it myself. They accommodated our song requests, MCd the night brilliantly, and generally kept up the party vibe we were looking for. We went for the 8-piece band, along with the new lighting package, and it was 100% WORTH IT. I cried at the end of the night, so happy and grateful for all the musical fun they brought for me and my favorite people. Thanks so much to Bryan and team for all their hard work and beautiful music.

ht of our special day for sure!!

re they weren't dancers joined us on the dance floor! While I didn't get to hear the music before the ceremony, almost every person I spoke to brought up how beautiful it was without a prompt. Taylor and Bryan were incredible to work with leading up to our wedding day. They made sure that the entire day was tailored for us, our tastes, and the environment we wanted for our big day! This was an excellent decision and I would 1000% recommend the Great Family Reunion!

s how we wanted it. Taylor was such a pleasure to work with and stayed on top of the timeline. This band put on quite the show for our wedding guests! They really brought the party and fun and we couldn't be more happy with our decision to hire Great Family Reunion for our wedding!

0 out of 10 would recommend!

a year that helped us plan the perfect music plan for our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception. Most wedding bands are corny as hell. This band is not! They set the perfect tone for the ceremony and cocktail hour, and then rocked the hell out of our reception. All of the band members are supremely talented and left our guests amazed, and then tired from all the dancing. Book this band and you won't regret it!

From the ceremony to the cocktail reception to the actual reception they brought so much fun and professionalism. They made our wedding a hit! Our guests really loved the band and they were able to quickly get our music choices from our spotify playlist. I would highly recommend if you get a chance to work with this team as they are top notch.

..I feel like I have to say that for my new husbands' sake...). Our Guests are still calling and texting us talking about how amazing everything was, especially though, the performances by GFR. If you want to feel like you're at an actual concert, please hire this company. The energy, the talent, the drums, horns, vocals.. Absolutely out of this world. Super easy to work with from the beginning, very professional and helpful, and always had great ideas for us to consider. Jonathan, Taylor and Bryan were so personable and made us feel heard. If Kenny is available, do yourself a favor and BOOK HIM. The entire team was absolutely incredible - cannot say this enough, HIGHLY recommend. Note to the band - can we do this again please!?? WE LOVE YOU! Thank you for everything!

eception with a great setlist. Great Family Reunion handled everything from sound equipment to keeping the night moving smoothly with the emcee. Best of all, they are incredibly talented individuals. Our guests raved about the band. We would recommend them to anyone looking for a professional, high quality band for their wedding or event!

game from the first conversation to the day of. We are general music lovers so we weren't very particular about setting a playlist before hand and GFR did not disappoint. Everyone said they loved the band and the songs we selected and without hesitant we gave credit where credit was due... the band just knew how to keep the party dancing and having a great time. I would 100% recommend GFR and would not hesitate to use them again.

an accommodating with! From a custom mashup song as our first dance, to a slowed down version of "eyes of the world" for our father daughter dance, to letting one of our groomsmen get on stage and sing Jack and Diane, we truly could not have had a better evening. Not to mention the difficult reception location! They loaded EVERYTHING onto a gondola! From start to finish GFR was a class act. Responsive, attentive, accommodating, professional, the list goes on and on! And their VOICES! Wow!! We hope we work together again one day. You simply amazed us. Love, Alexandra & Treavor 12.11.21 Vail, CO

g trio was . The only disappointing part was when the music and dancing ended at the end of the night! We truly enjoyed working with Jordan, Jonathan, Bryan and the team when it came to planning the wedding and felt like they heard everything we talked about. Would recommend wholeheartedly to any fun couples looking for a great, personal vibe at their wedding celebration.

nd backdrop to our ceremony and fun night of dancing. When my then fiancee and I were beginning to feel overwhelmed by the number of vendors and choices we had to make in preparation for the wedding, GFRB came in and immediately knew how to approach choosing the type of music, the ceremony songs, the first dance, and the rest of the lineup that made our lives so much easier. They also had a wealth of choices and varieties of music conveniently set up for our listening on Spotify. GFRB were also willing to work with us on the day, keeping things open regarding our chosen ceremony music (something we couldn't lock down until a week or two prior to the day) and where they setup. They were able to learn a particular song we chose in the end within that last week or two (totally down to our indecisiveness and definitely not recommended) and played it beautifully. We also had an outdoor wedding that was threatened with cold temps and possible rain. They worked with us to wait until the last minute, and thankfully, the weather cooperated and the chance GFRB took in keeping to an outdoor setup under a tent made for the perfect ceremony and dancing late into the night. And as for the band's performance, we (and every single one of our guests) were quite simply blown away. Every piece of the band and the two (2) singers were incredible, played great songs, and made it feel like our own big concert. This will live long in the memory, because as much as we tried to make everything about our wedding weekend special for us and our guests, the band's performance took it all to another level. It felt almost like being transported away from the hectic wedding prep we had been inundated with over the prior months and had an absolutely great time, truly leaving it all out on the dance floor. This isn't just a wedding band. GFRB know what they're doing, all the way through, and we owe them so much for making our special day truly memorable. Thank you to Bryan and the team. Thank you so much! Cheers!

our side bringing our vision to life! They executed our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception to perfection!! Our wedding would NOT have been the same without Great Family Reunion! To this day, our wedding guests are still RAVING about how awesome GFR was! It's not very often that you attend a wedding where every guest of ALL ages is out on the dance floor within 10 seconds of the first song! On top of that our dance floor was packed all night long and that is credit to the professionalism, creativity, and strong performers/musicians that GFR puts into their planning for each and every event. Hiring Great Family Reunion is guaranteed to give you an amazing experience you will never forget, and one that your guests will not forget either!

r requested songs. They were responsive, professional, and were the absolute highlight of our wedding. All our guests were blown away and the dance floor was packed all night long! They truly go above and beyond to make your experience the best. Thanks to Jordan, Jonathan, Bryan, and the whole GFR team for making our wedding one to remember!

postponement due to COVID. Jonathan and the team were super easy to work with and accommodating in shifting to the new date and communicative throughout. They were also very effective at coordinating with our venue (which was kind of new to weddings) and arranging everything so that all went smoothly on day of. Then on the day of they absolutely crushed it! They prepared several unique arrangements of personal requests for the ceremony songs and they sounded amazing - it was so special to have those tunes playing during that part of the event. Their ability to capture the mood of each part of the night was impeccable. From the customized ceremony songs they transitioned to a laid back and smooth jazz during cocktail hour, which perfectly set the scene. They easily blended this part of the night into our first dance, which was again a personal request that they made into a beautiful arrangement. Moving into the evening they absolutely crushed the house party vibes for the dancing. Their song selection was spot on for what we wanted and fit the tastes of all our guests - they had everyone at the party dancing all night. But beyond that, they are such talented musicians. We had multiple guests come up to us and comment on how incredible the band sounded in addition to how fun it was. Thank you, Great Family Reunion we could not have asked for a better band to capture such an important element of our wedding. Highly highly recommend!

ng the time of their life (as were we)! We had two separate guests book GFR after hearing them perform at our wedding. The music was even better than I could've imagined. Look no further than GFR :)

t these amazing artists do their thing. Our guest book, texts, call, interactions etc. with our friends and families since the wedding prominently feature GFR as a highlight of the wedding. A special thanks to Jonathan! Super nice, chill, funny and professional.

friends asked where they could get the covers to some of the songs...wink ("Atlantic City").

Our goal was to play some classic wedding hits with jam band and funk and Great Family Reunion hit the nail on the head. On top of that they helped us incorporate a Nola style second line and brought in extra brass players to make our vision a reality. They were so easy to work with and made our wedding absolutely perfect. I cannot say enough good things about Jonathan and his team. They made the night INCREDIBLE!!

veryone dancing the whole time, and no one could stop talking about how great they were! If you’re still looking for a wedding band, there is no reason to keep searching past GFR!

ance floor and kept it that way the entire night. The quality of there performance was equally met with the pre wedding communication and support. After our first phone conversation with Jonathan, we knew we had made the right decision. He took the time to truly understand what type of music fans each of us are, his professionalism carried on from our first conversation until the end of our wedding night, and he helped put us at ease during our wedding planning. I can not overstate enough how amazing it was to work with this group, how unforgettable and perfect the music was, and how good the Great Family Reunion band is at what they do!!!! Thanks again for everything and who knows maybe theres a second performance in store for our 20th anniversary!

proachable energy, incredible vocals and range (definitely add the horns section BTW, you won’t regret it), not to mention the most down-to-earth and great client service. These are true musicians who take pride in what they do, and it shows from end-to-end - most especially on your big day.

at stuff on our own... and THE BAND crushed it! The musicians they curate for your event are all top notch players and will blow your guests away. 10/10 would recommend!

edding, they were nothing but professional and allowed us to just show up and enjoy the good music and the best dance floor. We have friends who are musicians who came up to us multiple times throughout the night to talk about how tight the band was and the dance floor was literally packed from start to finish throughout the event given the great playing AND the top-notch playlist. NO DOUBT, 100% RECOMMENDED!

d singers are incredibly talented and really knew how to read the room to maximize engagement and high energy throughout the night. To top it all off, Jordan was able to arrange for a lighting director and DJ to keep the night going into our after party. The end result was nothing short of perfection. TL;DR - if you have the opportunity to do so, go with GFR you WILL NOT REGRET IT!

ship with Jonathan, the band leader, only grew stronger over that entire period. We never lost touch and were able to stay on the same page with our goals for our wedding evening, and boy, did the band deliver! From the sound check to the main event, the energy of our room was elevated to concert levels and we danced the night away. We loved the openness to ideas and high level of communication we received throughout every phone call in the planning process. The quality of musicianship was unparalleled and anyone looking to bring the "WOW" factor to their wedding, hire Great Family Reunion and rest assured you've made the right decision for not only your spouse, but everyone in attendance.

t, everyone was on the dance floor, even on top of tables (including myself!). They kept the momo going into Saturday - from ceremony music, to cocktail hour to reception!! Everyone was moving and grooving the entire night and as the bride and groom, that's all we wanted!! Many of our guests kept coming up to us both nights asking who the band was. GFR was truly epic and we are so grateful they were part of our events!! If you haven't hired GFR for your event, you're just doing it wrong!!!

lighting, and logistics. Highly recommend, 10/10!

ily and friends were up dancing the entire night! Thank you so much GFR <3

you’re getting married in Colorado, do not even hesitate for a second to hire GFR. Everyone we spoke to was so friendly and helpful from the start, and the musicians were all incredibly talented. Our friends and family haven’t stopped reaching out to us to talk about how amazing the band was, and we’re already dreaming of an anniversary party where we hire them again. Thank you GFR for helping throw the best party/night of our lives!!

and his team were so accommodating to all of our requests, from specific songs for their strings trio to play for our ceremony, to wacky requests from my crazy Italian family for the reception. They really made the entire process from start to finish so easy and FUN. I'd recommend them to anybody looking for a band in a heartbeat. Best in the business.

sure the song list they put together would be exactly what we wanted to dance to. And we knew the band was going to play an awesome set at our actual wedding but they were just SO GOOD! The band has awesome energy and talent, and the dance floor was consistently packed. Our friends were sore the next day from dancing. We just really appreciated everything the band did to make the night SO FUN and special and we wish it had lasted 4 hours longer!

eting sunset and views. We were SO impressed with each and every musician. They had put together a smaller band for weddings during the pandemic and we were stunned at the enormous and energizing sound that came from these 5 artists. It was better than any 10 piece band I’ve heard and was the perfect match for our 85 person wedding. We could’ve had 300 people there and they would’ve had everyone going. GFR guys hit the nail on the head at every step in the process. During the planning process, calls with them got us hyped every time. We felt like they just got us and knew exactly what we were looking for. They crushed it with the vibes we wanted from ceremony to cocktail hour to the reception. It was perfection! That was the best night of our lives and it wouldn’t have been the same without GFR!!! You guys are the best. I hope that we have another excuse someday to hire GFR again!! Thank you. Thank you. Thank you!!! Kristin & Alec

and reception. They were always available for quick questions and ideas along the way. I could not have asked for better support during the planning stages. Even more important then that, they were ABSOLUTELY AMAZING on the day of! They nailed the ceremony and cocktail music and the reception was somehow even better. I cannot tell you how many people told us how great the band was and how much fun they had. People were on the dance floor all night and having the BEST time, this includes our older family members all the way down to the youngest guests in their 20’s. It was the perfect mix of oldies and more recent music to keep everyone engaged and the pipes on both vocalists were out of this world. If you are thinking about booking them, just do it. One of the best decisions we made for our wedding and we cannot thank them enough for making it such a special evening! Thank you! Jessica and Tom

original artists and the entire band went out of their way to ensure perfection. We had a total of 6 bandmembers - 2 played selected songs for the actual ceremony, 2 played soft jazz for the cocktail reception then all convened for the party - rock music, oldies, everything! Coordinating playlist options with my daughter and her fiance was seamless - GFR had multiple conversations with them to personalize the whole evening. Sign them up - the best!!!!

eremony were phenomenal. We highly recommend GFR. Such a great experience. The sax player can shred...PERIOD.

ne was dancing. You should hire them!

wedding?!?! In all seriousness, GFR was amazing from start to finish. From my first phone call with Jonathan, I knew GFR was going to kill our special night. Bryan, Jordan, and the musicians were all amazing to work with, responsive, responsible, and fun! They saw our vision and took it up a few notches. They learned unconventional songs for us and steered clear of the songs/artists we did not want to hear. We were blown away, and so were our guests. Certainly the best night we’ve ever had!!!! Thank you, GFR!!!

ce floor was packed the entire night. Everyone praised the band the entire night. Our wedding was truly epic and GFR raised the ROOF!!! Hire them. Book them. Don’t think twice about it.

absolutely killed, jamming out certain sections of songs that our guests were visibly getting down to, and feeding off the crowd's energy. After the wedding one of the most consistent pieces of feedback we got was "WOW. The band was amazing. How did you find them?" Would 100% recommend!!

et list and night that was beyond all of our expectations. We heard songs that meant a lot to us as a couple, and ones that just plain rocked out! Everyone danced the night away-literally! We can not express how grateful we are to have had them provide the perfect backdrop to the perfect day.

unication, organization, etc. They were always helpful and in fact contributed to several ideas that helped our wedding run smoothly. There are too many good things to list here. 100% recommendation from us.

our guests were spilling off the dance floor - it felt more like a concert than a wedding (in the best way possible). I would recommend them again and again!

shing it throughout the night. We had a packed dance floor all night covering soo many genres and eras. Mostly, they're just so talented musically, and know how to put on the show and party. We shared music, and had multiple discussions. They'll work with you to try to help you stay in budget, too! These are the Pros!!

d for your wedding, you will not be disappointed, they bring the party!!

ery communicative and tailored the set list to tunes and genres we really wanted to hear and it turned out perfect. They also played music during our cocktail hour, a small three-person group of just instrumentals and absolutely killed it. Cannot recommend enough, you will not be disappointed. The musicians were outstanding, the vocals were over the top amazing (so many compliments), the coordination and teamwork of the group was noticeable. They worked with us on our first dance song and helped out my groomy when he decided to rock my socks off and play a song for me at our wedding. THANK YOU! We will cherish all of the memories and cannot thank you enough for your part in our wedding day.
