We had the absolute pleasure of having an incredible Marilyn Monroe impersonator, Allie, perform at my dad’s 90th birthday, and she truly made the celebration unforgettable.
From the moment she walked in, she completely embodied Marilyn Monroe — the look, the voice, the charm, and that unmistakable sparkle. The surprise on my dad’s face was priceless. His eyes lit up, and the smile he had from ear to ear is something our family will never forget.

What truly set Allie apart was the care she put in before the event. She took the time to learn about my dad — his personality, his interests, and his story — so she could make the experience personal and meaningful. It wasn’t just a performance; it was thoughtfully tailored especially for him. She even brought a personalized birthday card written “from Marilyn” to my dad, which was such a touching and heartfelt gesture. He absolutely loved it.

She performed the classic songs beautifully, capturing the magic and elegance of the originals. Watching my dad sing along, laughing and fully in the moment, was incredible. For those few songs, he wasn’t just turning 90 — he was young again, reliving special memories with pure joy.

Allie’s professionalism, warmth, and genuine connection made all the difference. She didn’t just entertain — she created a heartfelt, magical experience that our family will cherish forever.

If you’re looking to create a truly meaningful and unforgettable moment for someone you love, I cannot recommend Allie enough. She helped make my dad’s 90th birthday one of the most beautiful and special days we’ve ever shared.

Great site. Just wish the fees weren’t so high

I’m a professional Magician, Mentalist, and Murder Mystery Host, and I’ve maintained a Featured Profile with GigSalad for over 10 years.

Without hesitation, I can say that GigSalad is my number one source for advertising and promoting my business. I’ve experimented with other platforms such as The Bash (formerly GigMasters), Yelp, and Bark, but none of them come close to delivering the consistent, high-quality leads I receive through GigSalad. The Bash does not send nearly as many leads, Yelp leads very rarely give me a response no matter how they are contacted and Bark charges per lead to the tune of $14 to $42 per lead (leads are sold to multiple vendors although there is no cost to join).

The inquiries I receive from GigSalad are from real people actively seeking real entertainment services. While ghosting can happen with any advertising platform, I’ve found that response rates and follow-through are significantly better through GigSalad than anywhere else.

Because I travel worldwide for performances, I especially appreciate the GigSoup feature. It allows me to connect with clients in other states—and even Canada—who may not have local entertainers offering the type of services I provide. They have updated the GigSoup area based on my recommendations so the developers are open to suggestions and are quick to reply.

Recently, I responded to a GigSoup request for a murder mystery in Robbinsville, North Carolina (I’m based in South Florida). The event at their lodge was a tremendous success, and they’ve already invited me back twice more—once in a few weeks and again later this summer.

I’m also impressed that GigSalad has kept its pricing stable for years. And their Customer Happiness team is consistently friendly, responsive, and genuinely helpful.

Simply put, I’m extremely happy with every aspect of GigSalad and look forward to continuing our partnership for many years to come.

So far the site is amazing. The response was prompt and accurate. The artist you have list listed are very professional and respond responding to me in the conversations we’ve had. I will recommend this service to any and everyone I know, and I will be using it in the future, thank you so much for your assistance.

It was quick the vendors are very professional very satisfied with the guarantee your company provides

It was easy to put the request together and receive quotes. The secure payment and contractual guarantee through a third party (GigSalad) makes the entire process effortless. I would definitely use this resource again!

Gigsalada helped me find what I was looking for, a nice singer to perform a song telegram for my wife on our 20th anniversary.

I receive 7-8 quotes in a matter of minutes of my request. The vendors were all over the map on pricing. I reviewed a handful of them. The one I chose actually picked up the phone and called me. Just like in the old days where people talked to each other. I appreciated it. Kudos to him.

I’m a returning customer, as I was looking for a different genre of music in a different state. GigSalad makes locating quality musical talent in different genres easy! In minutes several bands responded with their availability and quotes. I had so many choices that it took me quite awhile to listen to their UTubes and make my choice! A great problem to have! When people ask me how I find such great musical performers, I recommend GigSalad.

Charles is amazing. We booked him last year for Valentines Day and everybody requested for him to be back again. We will be booking him again in the future I can't say enough good things about him. I would give him 10 stars if I could!

Always great experience with Gig Salad. Others don't compare for quality of the bands.

it is easy to find the entertainers and most are very prompt with responses and answering questions
I have found all to work with you to make the experience exactly what you want
i like the security of booking through an agency

i have booked for many years through gigsalad and found all performers professional

Andrew with Mariachi Flor de Missiouri was awesome.

ENTERTAINERS...DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!
What a ripoff. They take you money up front and lead you to believe a lead is from a potential client who actually viewed your profile. Not at all. They sound out blanket leads to everyone remotely in the category of what the client is seeking. The majority will not even fit your criteria. If they were legit it would be a free platform and they would take 10 0r 15% of the booking, like and real agent does. Shameful company that takes money from entertainers and could care less about focusing leads to the entertainer's criteria,

I'm terrible at finding and booking things it gives me anxiety just to think about having to try but I wanted to do something out of the normal and extra special for my husbands 50th. Gigsalad made the process of finding and booking a band easier than I could have ever imagined and it was fun! Thank you!

Fast and easy to use! I was able to book a 2 person guitar set within a few days of posting. I will definitely use this again.

I liked the number of quotes we got. I do not like that I pay the performer a deposit but have to pay gigsalad the whole amount upfront. I prefer to pay a deposit and would even pay the gigsalad fee but i did not book as many vendors as I need because I cannot afford to pay for 100% upfront as a non profit school.
I was also frustrated that I needed multiple vendors for different dates but this platform only lets you book on the date you asked for so it means asking for multiple quotes and getting repeat people.

ESSY TO BOOK AND EASY TO FIND GREAT PEOPLE FOR OUR EVENTS...THX!
