Elegant Classics Duo
"Mary Jane and Maria were absolutely amazing! We had them play acoustic for our ceremony and on tracks for the cocktail hour. They were able to take all our requests for the ceremony and it was so special for us to have specific music. We received countless compliments from the guests as well. Thank you for helping to make our day perfect!"
SaxoDance
"SaxoDance Was the Life of Our Cocktail Hour
We are so pleased with our decision to hire Stephan to perform for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. He is very professional and helped us craft our processional walk. He learned the songs that we wanted to mark each moment, and let us curate his broad repertoire to our liking. He is a very talented player and provided great entertainment for our cocktail hour, even playing past our designated time as our dinner got delayed. Our fiends and family enjoyed socializing with him and his wife/assistant Suzanne. They both really helped make our day so magical, and created many great photo moments. I can’t recommend SaxoDance enough :)"

Beyond the immense talent, the warmth and energy brought to the performance made it truly unforgettable. Thank you for making our special occasion so memorable!"
