Gaston did an awesome job!!! It was very hot Saturday and they were set up outside, but you would have never known by the way they performed! They kept the party going. They played music that the group wanted. They did the usual bouquet toss, etc. They were a great asset! The bride and groom didn't want to leave the party! We finally had to tell them that their boat wouldn't be able to wait much longer.

We wanted to write and thank you for the amazing job you did at our May 15th reception at the Citadel Beach House on Isle of Palms, SC. We were so thrilled to have you perform and you exceeded our expectations! You left people on the dance floor all night and your song choices were great. We couldn't have asked for a better band. We will definitely refer our friends. Thank you again.

I just wanted to tell you how much we enjoyed Gaston. They were a fantastic band and were such nice men. Not only did they not take a break but kept everyone on the dance floor the entire time! I told my husband that I was very glad we did not have another daughter as I have had enough wedding planning but that we would have to find an occasion to have the band back! Please tell them again how much we loved them. They made Lauren's evening even that much more special! Thanks again for all of your help.

The band that played at my wedding, Gaston, was AMAZING! That band MADE our wedding, as a matter of fact! They were so awesome that my father gave them an extra tip at the end of the evening! They played for Bayne and myself, they played for the children, and they played for our families and friends...that is a very rare quality in a band!!! People danced at our wedding that NEVER get out on the dancefloor~ it was an ABSOLUTE BLAST!!! Also, Jerry Reid could not have been more professional or pleasant to work with over the phone prior to the wedding! In my opinion, they dont charge enough for they're BLAST of a performance! I would recommend Gaston one hundred times over...and then some...to bring to life any special occasion!

Graham,
The date party was huge success considering we threw it together a couple days beforehand. Gaston was great, they really got the crowd involved and played just the right music. They were easy to work with, and were very flexible about when they started/finished. Thanks again and I'll be sure to put some younger guys in touch with you whenever we need a band again.

Gaston was great! They played exactly what we were looking for, they had the crowd dancing all night, and only took one break when we cut the cake. I would recommend them to anyone looking for good dancing music and no BS.

Gaston was the perfect entertainment for our crowd's 50th Birthday Celebration! Not only did they play a perfect party/dance mix, they played for four hours straight - no break -and the crowd begged for more when they wrapped at midnight.
I'd also like to note how accommodating and pleasant Jerry Reid and his band were to work with. Our set up was less than ideal, and they made it work beautifully! I feel like I've made some great new friends, and will certainly book these guys again as the occasion comes up!

Gaston was fantastic! Their music was wonderful! They interacted with the guests really well. I don't think people could have had more fun. I think they made the reception a success. I know my daughter had a blast. I would recommend them to anyone. They are an incredibly talented group of musicians and we appreciated their playing for our reception.

I wanted to write to tell you what an AWESOME time we had at our wedding reception - thanks to your band! Ya'll surpassed our expectations by far! We have received countless compliments about you guys from our guests, and it was obvious that everyone really enjoyed themselves. Thank you for doing such a great job for us - we'll never forget it!

Pigg Wedding Reception
One of the things we liked so much about Gaston was how they interacted with the people at the reception and got so many people out on the dance floor to have fun. At our reception, they lived up to our expectations. Overall, their performance could not have been rated higher. Everybody enjoyed them immensely.
