We used the band Jump Start through Bob Gail Entertainment for our wedding in August 2015 and had a fantastic experience. Brian Pincus was our point person from the beginning of the process and our band leader. From beginning to end, he was extremely helpful, responsive, and always seemed to be on the same page as we were regarding the flow and feel we wanted. We looked at a couple of other bands and chose Jump Start for a few reasons: -We had seen Jump Start at our friends wedding ~3-4 years prior and remembered how great they were, even though it had been several years -Huge song list - much more extensive than some of the other bands we looked at -Brian immediately came off as trustworthy, accommodating, and easy to work with In addition to the wedding reception, we also used 3 band members for our ceremony music, and Brian also worked with us on very short notice to arrange for one of the band members to play at our cocktail hour. The reception was amazing. All of the band members are fantastic entertainers, professionals, and it is clear they can read a crowd. We met ~4-6 weeks before the wedding and talked about the flow we wanted (dancing in between courses, etc) which was very important to us. Brian suggested all of the same things we were thinking and after that meeting, we felt completely at ease. We had ~220 guests, and everyone was on the dance floor the entire time - both our friends (20s and 30s) and our parents friends (50s and 60s). We requested to minimize the number of slower songs so it was all very upbeat and high energy. My husband was supposed to speak later in the night, but we were loving the band so much that we ended up skipping his speech so we didnt have to stop the music! We had the best time, no complaints, and could not recommend Jump Start more.

My experience with Bob Gail was so absolutely fantastic that it was one of the saddest parts about closing the book on our wedding. I walked in and met Allyson and Brian over a year ago after countless meetings with other planners. I knew within the first 5 minutes of meeting them why people say "save the best for last". They got it! Every last detail of what we wanted. Matt and I didnt just want some beautiful linens and pretty flowers on some tables. We came in asking for replicas of "Candy Land", a lot of glam, and ultimately we wanted the party of the year. Our wedding was Oct 18th, 2013 and when I tell you that they nailed it on the head, that statement doesnt even do it justice. I worked with Allyson the most, who truly became like a sister and a forever friend throughout this process. She was there no matter what and worked out every last detail with her heart in all of it. My favorite part of working with them was that you got a chance to work with everyone. Katie, Kay, Linley, Katherine (who is the best event designer on planet earth), and every other employee at Bob Gail stepped up at one point or another and made everything go right. They worked with us through and through and gave us the chance to enjoy a planning process that can ultimately be very stressful. I believe they are the best in the biz and a true family that became part of our own. We love these guys and will always remember what they did for us and forever be grateful!! - Nicole & Matt

I originally met with Bob Gail to hire a day-of coordinator for my wedding (as was required by my wedding venue.). I ended up hiring Bob Gail as my coordinator, florist, lighting, DJ and other decor and Im so happy that I did. The one stop shopping made wedding planning so much easier and every aspect that they helped with went wonderfully. Visually, they exceeded even my highest expectations. Bob Gail did a great job of understanding my vision and intepreting it; they made suggestions and gave ideas freely without it feeling like they were trying to upsell me in any way. They were completely respectful of the budget I was working with. Working with Katie as my coordinator was amazing. I never worried that things would get overlooked or forgotten. She was reponsive when I had a question, but not overbearing in any way. Basically - always there when you needed something but not constantly in your ear when you didnt. Our DJ played all of our "must" songs while "getting" our musical taste enough to be able to make his own choices that we would have picked anyway. He was exactly what we hoped for - guided the wedding and timeline without doing any of the cheesy things that DJs often do. I really appreciate everything Bob Gail did and although I hope to never plan a wedding again, I would recommend them in a heartbeat. And should I ever need to plan a party or event again, I wouldnt hesitate on where to start.

Planning my daughter quincenera with Bob Gail was spectacular. I did not want just an ordinary party with ballons. Bob Gail and its team where able to make my vision come true. Everytime I had a question there where always ready to answer my questions. It was 3 days before the quincenera and my daughter did not have a boque. I called Bob Gail and asked if it was possible to make a boque in such a short notice. They said it was not a problem and send me a sketch of the boque that same day. I never had to worry about how everything was going to turn out because I knew Bob Gail and its team will make it happen. The day of the party everyting looked amaziang. I did not had to worry about anything. The crew arrived on time and setup everything on time. The only thing me and my family did while they set up was watch a movie. I didnt have to do anything. The final product was amazing from the lighting, tables, dance floor and my main center of attention my flower center pieces BEAUTIFUL. Everyone that came to the party couldnt stop talking of how beautiful everyting looked and that they had never seen anything like it. If I had to do it all over again and if I have any future parties I would call BobGail again because they committ and delivery and I dont have to worry about anything. If anyone has a event comming up I truly recommend for you to use BobGail and its team, all I can say AMAZAING.

I booked Jump Start through Bob Gail as my band at my wedding. Every phone call and conversation Ive had with my guests recapping the evening has included a rave review about our band. Their song choices perfectly fit the energy of the room and all age groups were able to dance and sing along. They were able to cover such a wide variety of song choices and there seemed to be a singer in the band for every type of genre (even country). There is something about the energy a band brings versus a DJ that just really gets a crowd going and eager to dance Brian was so wonderful to work with. He was patient, engaged and invested in the night. It made a huge difference having him there keeping our timeline on track and changing things as needed based on the mood of the room. Additionally, he acted like a therapist and a band leader, helping me personally navigate through the chaos of the day. The whole process of working with Bob Gail was seamless. They sent my husband and I a long list of songs to choose from before our wedding and even learned a couple of songs that we requested that were not part of their set list. Jump Start was one of the more expensive ticket items in our wedding, but worth every penny!
