Wedding Singers in Washington D.C.Rates for saxophonists in Washington D.C. run from $180 to $1,200+, with typical bookings around $470. Check what the figure covers before comparing quotes: PA and setup are usually included, travel may or may not be, and an overtime rate for running past the agreed finish is worth agreeing in writing rather than on the night. Most acts take a deposit to hold the date, with the balance due close to the event, and short notice tends to cost more rather than less, since a free Saturday in peak season is a date someone else has already turned down.

Richard Lilliston Jr
"I absolutely love listening to him play his saxophone!! I have hired him to play at our special events at work and for my family events. He knows how to create the perfect list of songs to fit your particular event. We love to see him come in the door and hate to see him leave. We sing along we play the instruments that he provides, it’s just a great experience. 10 out of 10 every time"
Jason Arce
"Living states away, I wanted to express a novel way to wish my sister a Happy Birthday. After viewing Jason's video of his saxophone skills I felt he would be excellent for playing happy birthday for a door telegram. He was prompt in responding to messages as we figured out a day and time that worked best for him and my sister. He was professional, nice, and easy to talk to. Thank you again for a cherished memory, Jason!!"
Madigan on Sax
"Ceilidh (pronounced Kay-Lee (right?)) is an awesome player and a great hang. We met him at a West Philly Porchfest Jam and ended up hiring him from time to time to fill out our band. Totally professional, positive attitude, humble and gracious, and absolutely fire with his solos. An awesome guy to have on our team from time to time."

Taylor Field - Singing Saxophonist
"Our favorite part of the reception!
Taylor was one of the absolute highlights of our wedding day! From the start, he was incredibly responsive, professional, and easy to work with. He even offered to connect with our DJ ahead of time to make sure everything flowed seamlessly - and it really did.
Taylor arrived early to set up and sound check, and throughout the evening was so flexible with timing. When it came time for his performance, he blew us away. His solo was incredible, but what made it even better was how effortlessly he played alongside our DJ's set, adapting to the music and energy in the room. At one point, everyone gathered around him on the dance floor, and it was one of my favorite moments of the night.
Our guests haven't stopped raving about him. He brought so much life, energy, and joy to the reception and truly elevated the entire evening. 10/10 recommend!"
