The Best of the Best!!!

There are absolutely no words to describe how amazing GBS Party Band is! We had been on quite a journey with John and the band for over 3.5 years (thanks Covid) and they were there every single step of the way lending a helping hand (and ear, John heard lots of tears hahaha) in any way possible! The band was and still is the talk of our wedding, having the dance floor PACKED from beginning to end. We had such a blast at our wedding thanks to The Goody Blue Shoes. We cannot recommend them enough to everyone we know planning their own wedding. No need to look any further, you have found the band you’ve been looking for right here and will never have a worry in the world as far as entertainment goes the days leading up to your own special day! We love you GBS!!

An incredible wedding band in talent, professionalism, care, and price

I recently had the absolute pleasure of having Goody Blue Shoes as our wedding band, and I cannot express how incredibly thrilled we were with their performance and presence. From start to finish, the experience was nothing short of amazing, and a significant part of that credit goes to the exceptional service provided by John, the band's point person.
John went above and beyond to ensure that our wedding music was not just a playlist, but a personalized and unforgettable experience. His dedication was evident from the multiple meetings we had to discuss our preferences and to customize every detail to match our vision. What truly set John and Goody Blue Shoes apart was his genuine interest in making our wedding unique.
One of the standout qualities was John's incredible memory and attention to detail. He took the time to remember not only our names but even our grandparents' names. He even gifted us with our favorite drink at the reception. This personal touch added a level of warmth and familiarity that made the entire celebration feel even more special. It's these small, thoughtful gestures that truly set Goody Blue Shoes apart from the rest.
When it came to the music, Goody Blue Shoes exceeded all expectations. The band played a curated selection of songs that resonated with our tastes, creating an atmosphere that perfectly reflected the essence of our relationship. Their ability to read the crowd and keep everyone on the dance floor throughout the night was something that dozens of guests continue to rave about well after the wedding was over.
If you're in the process of considering a wedding band, look no further than Goody Blue Shoes. The level of professionalism, dedication, and talent they bring to the table is unparalleled. Trust me when I say that having Goody Blue Shoes play at our wedding was one of the best decisions we made during the entire planning process. They not only met our expectations but far exceeded them, making our day truly unforgettable. Thank you, John, and the entire Goody Blue Shoes band, for making our wedding celebration absolutely magical!

Book them!

Months after our wedding, people are still raving about GBS. “That band was incredible”! And boy do we AGREE! GBS had the dance floor packed the entire night! Their medleys cover all genres of music through a variety of songs which kept everyone dancing throughout the sets. During the entire planning process, John made us feel like his number one priority. Though phone calls, zoom calls, breakfast dates and gig appearances, John got to know us and learn about us. GBS not only provide the music for our reception but also the ceremony. Days before the wedding we decided we wanted to add a violin player to the ceremony, specifically for the song I was walking down the aisle to. John made it his personal mission to exhaust his contacts to make it happen. Which he did! John and GBS not only made our wedding incredible but got a bunch of Phillies fans to not only dance the Mets walk out song but helped us welcome and party with Mr. Mets! 😉
