Photo of Jcube Enterprises (Pty) Ltd Jcube Enterprises (Pty) Ltd "We had such a wonderful experience having Devon perform at our wedding! His saxophone playing added such a beautiful and memorable atmosphere to the day and really elevated the overall experience for us and our guests. From the beginning, Devon was professional, friendly and so easy to work with. He was reliable, accommodating and brought such a lovely energy to our wedding. We received so many compliments on the music, and it was honestly such a special touch that we’ll always remember. We’re so grateful to Devon for being part of our wedding and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a talented saxophonist to make their event extra special! 🤍" Based in Durban, KwaZulu-Natal 30th September 2026 Zoe Singh - Wedding Photo of Beat-Route Beat-Route ""Hi Daniel, I didn’t even get a chance to chat to you guys on the day!  All went so quick! In saying that, I most certainly heard your beautiful music and I cannot thank you enough for contributing to our wedding day and making it a magical one! Your professionalism and helpfulness leading up to the day was truly remarkable and you were always available to chat or answer any questions (and instructions!) I had immediately. For this I thank you and will most certainly recommend you to any future bride and/or event. Good luck to you and the rest of Beat-route, I wish you a very successful future and will most certainly see you again at Market sometime. I will forward you some photos when I receive them for sure!"

He always has really fresh ideas giving life to music. Highly recommended" Based in Durban, KwaZulu-Natal Fortunate - Artist Photo of Maverick Entertainer Maverick Entertainer "Review of Maverick – An Exceptional Musician and Entertainer We recently booked Maverick for a Friday evening performance at our church, and it was an incredible experience. His music was varied and included a wide spectrum of genres, which were all well received by the audience. Maverick is a very talented musician who masterfully plays more than one instrument, which makes his performance even more impressive. The atmosphere was lively and full of energy – people even started dancing! It was clear that everyone thoroughly enjoyed the evening. His ability to engage with the audience and create a sense of joy and togetherness is something special. For anyone considering booking Maverick for an event, I can say with full confidence: Go for it! He is an excellent entertainer and musician who will definitely bring value to any occasion."

Frequently asked questions

The average price for wedding musicians on Gig Heaven is R8,500, with rates from R2,450 to R28,000+. Pricing depends on the type of musician, the number of performers and how many parts of the wedding day are covered. All-day packages that span the ceremony, reception and evening entertainment typically offer better value than booking separately for each.

The wedding musicians include a huge range of performers suited to different parts of a wedding day, including string quartets, harpists, pianists, acoustic duos, jazz bands, singers and party bands. Many musicians offer packages covering multiple parts of the day.

Most wedding musicians can perform during the ceremony (processional, signing of documents, recessional), the drinks reception, the wedding meal, and the evening party. Some artists offer all-day packages that cover multiple segments. It is advisable to browse profiles to find musicians who match the style and schedule of your wedding.

The most popular wedding musicians can be booked up many months in advance during wedding season. Gig Heaven recommends securing your preferred artists six to twelve months before the wedding date. Less popular dates or midweek weddings may have more availability at shorter notice.

Many wedding musicians are happy to learn a special song for a key moment such as walking down the aisle or the first dance. It is worth making any song requests well in advance to allow time for preparation and rehearsal.

Most wedding musicians are self-contained and provide their own instruments and PA system for standard wedding venues. For larger venues, outdoor ceremonies or marquees, additional amplification may be needed. It is a good idea to confirm equipment details with the musician.
