About

Hi there, welcome to my profile! I've played a few different instruments since childhood, but the sax became my favourite as soon as I picked it up! No wonder I feel so privileged to perform on sax for as many happy couples as I have. I love it when the people around me enjoy themselves to the fullest, so your complete peace of mind is my top priority both before and during your wedding.

Previous couples have cited the great choices of music, easy-going and prompt communication, and, of course, emphatic sax playing as highlights of their experience with me. I can attest that I have a repertoire of over 500 songs and will always offer to learn some of your favourites too, particularly if I'm accompanying you down the aisle! Here are some other features of my service you may be interested in:

  • A compact, discreet wireless microphone for dancing with your guests at a party or a poignant reception.
  • A battery-powered, plug-free PA system. Suitable for most outdoor spaces or rooms up to a capacity of around 100.
  • A digital pedalboard can accompany a solo or band performance for additional colour and texture.
  • PAT-tested equipment and Public liability insurance included.
