We had a great experience with The Gatsbys for our June 2022 wedding. We would highly recommend them to anyone considering hiring them. Aside from being incredibly nice, professional, and responsive, they are very talented and were able to tail...

or the music they played to the feel we were going for at various points of the evening. They even had their guitarist move to a different location than originally planned for our dinner which had to be moved at the last minute due to wind so that we wouldn't be without music for that part of the day. Everyone loved their music and we loved working with them.

We totally appreciate your kinds words, Allison. It would've taken a lot more than that wind to put a damper on your amazing wedding day!

at they sang, they learned an acoustic melody for me to walk down the aisle to, and they even sang happy birthday for one of our wedding guests. They were able to adapt to my last-minute scheduling change, and they were willing to move locations throughout the venue during the wedding evening. I could not recommend this band more, nor could our guests who told us how much they enjoyed all the live music. If you're like us and you're looking for an affordable live music option, you absolutely cannot go wrong with Grant and the Gatsby's! Thank you so much, guys! :)

ry all the way through our wedding day. Secondly, they are super talented. Their song list included tracks that everyone at our wedding loved. At the reception, I constantly had guests coming up to me to (1) congratulate me on my marriage, and (2) rave about how good the music is. I honestly wish our reception was longer so we could have listened to them play more! We loved their sound. I work in the wedding industry myself, so I've seen a lot of different types of vendors. The Gatsbys are truly top tier, and I cannot wait to recommend them to my future clients. If you're looking for awesome musicians who are super easy to work with, look no further.

We had an absolute blast at our wedding in Moab with The Gatsbys. Everything was done outdoors to maximize our experience against the beautiful backdrop and the great outdoors, and they managed to help make it feel cozy and intimate. Our guests...

were from all over the world and they all loved the music they played and the incredible atmosphere that their performance brought to the evening. From the beautifully strummed songs at our ceremony to the lovely music over dinner to the electric vibe they instilled at the after party, they felt the occasion and crowd and complemented it perfectly. They selected songs that fit the mood and those on the dance floor at any given time throughout the night - when my 5-year old niece came out to dance, they did a couple numbers specially for her and kept the momentum going. On planning overall, we had some fairly late stage adjustments to the game plan and they were very accommodating, quick in correspondence and really helped make the day headache free for us. Coming from Hong Kong, many people opt for destination weddings to take a break from the bright lights of the city so we've seen many different styles for many different types of weddings and can confidently say The Gatsbys were perfect for the occasion and you would highly recommend them to anyone lucky enough to book them.

ich was a big hit with the crowd. They were willing to work with us to provide acoustic music for our ceremony, helped out with amps and microphones, emceed our events and were able to get our shy crowd dancing all night. They can definitely roll with the punches, like when my sister decided to jump up and start singing with them at last call! We had a blast working with the Gatsbys for our event. The music was great, they played a ton of our favorite songs. Most of the postive feedback we got on our wedding was about how amazing the band was. You will not regret booking the Gatsbys for your wedding!
