What's great is that you have people's profiles with reviews at your fingertips. Only thing I find is with some, although you indicate you are just asking for quotes and have no set plans, they get offended when you don't book with them.

Hassle free booking
I appreciate how easy it was to receive multiple quotes quickly. I also like being able to message any one of the vendors prior to booking. The reviews feature was also useful. In addition being able to directly speak on the phone with the vendor was great. Most importantly was the detailed and clear terms and conditions with the protected deposit and the guarantee of fair contract

The cards say: Katherine Violet is in your future
Katherine Violet is extraordinary! She is so warm and empathic, and gave everyone such amazing insights into their lives! I kept saying, "How does she know all these details about me?" She's the real deal! 100% professional, quick response, reasonable rate, plus she accommodated our last-minute date change. Best birthday party ever, and I can't wait to book her for our next girl's night!

I was very impressed with my reading from Katherine, who enlightened me on the 5 questions I asked her to read on. I will definitely use her for upcoming book group parties as a special gift to my friends.

This was a very efficient and effective way to communicate with musicians in the area. We were very pleased at how easily we were able to interact get information to and from a number of interested people and then book a professional for our wedding.

Thank you for your review! We’re glad the process made it easy to connect with musicians, compare options, and find the right professional for your wedding.
The process for answering the questions when requesting a gig provides the provider with all the necessary information to make a reasonable quote. The down payment and final payment process ensures security for both. I requested a DJ and karaoke and got several responses with contact info and background information from which I could make a good decision.

Thank you for your review! We’re glad the process made it easy to receive detailed quotes, compare options, and book with confidence.
This was such a great platform to help my fiancé and I find the right performers for our wedding. We are pleased with our experience. It was so helpful to have one space to connect to multiple musicians. We are so excited to have Rowan play at our upcoming wedding this fall. Will update review after our wedding.
***EDIT: Does Gigsalad actually read reviews? We haven’t had our wedding yet. My review stated we were excited to have the musician we booked perform at our upcoming wedding.

Very easy communication from start to finish! This is my third time using GigSalad, and I have never been disappointed. Whether it's a last-minute request or an event booked months in advance, the performers and entertainers have always been professional, reliable, and talented. The booking process is simple, and the quality of service has been outstanding every time. I highly recommend GigSalad for any event!

I liked how well organized the website was and having the notifications and reminder emails. It made the process of looking at each quote, videos, style etc of each musician easy to understand and easy to come back to and make a decision.

Katherine’s tarot reading was spot on!
Both her intuition and knowledge were impressive and enabled a thorough and fun reading.
Amazing!!!! Highly recommend a reading with Katherine!
