Saxophone Simon - Party Sax - Xmas/2026
"Simon was absolutely fab! He took us through a lot of options and we went for light music during photos and with our DJ for the reception.
Having Simon play was a real highlight of the day. He was amazing and so many guests said just how fun it was. There were a few songs me and Steve really wanted - he really got what we were looking for with the music for the day.
We loved him and I don’t think it would have been quite the same without him playing and the atmosphere he naturally brought.
Great guy and a really great day"

Her approachable & friendly personality & bubbly sense of humour just added to the whole reception with our guests up dancing & having a ball! Would highly recommend Becky!"
