Essex Wedding Saxophonists

Wedding Saxophonist

The most popular Wedding entertainment question asked is “are you having a band or a DJ?” Well now, there’s another very appealing option! With myself as your DJ, you gain not just hundreds, but thousands of songs at my fingertips which, I can use to create a phenomenal atmosphere!

Adding a live Saxophonist into the mix can elevate that atmosphere even further with epic crowd interaction! Below are some of the incredibly talented Saxophonists I’m happy to recommend based on the criteria that they’re: very talented musicians, professional and they interact with your guests.

Recommended Saxophonists

Jonny on Sax

If you’ve been following my social media accounts for some time, then this guy needs no introduction! In July 2017 I was first introduced to Jonny – a guy that could play the Sax to a high standard but, very rarely played at private events let alone Weddings. 

That first night, we instantly clicked and our high energy DJ & Sax duo was born! Now, with over 100 Weddings under our belt, Jonny comes with my highest recommendation! Like every great duo, we know each others next move! Leaving us in a position to take your party to the next level!

Saskia Porter-Thaw

If truth be told, at the time of writing this (January 2024) I haven’t yet had the opportunity to work alongside Saskia but, she does come highly recommended by the Saxophonist I highly recommend ha ha! 

Saskia has an array of some pretty impressive corporate clients including Lamborghini & Swarovski with some awesome content at Festivals across the world! To say I’m excited to put her to the test would be an understatement!

Matt Pearse Sax

I had the pleasure of working with Matt back in July 2023 at The Little Green Wedding Barn, Diss and what a night we had! 

Matt stepped up from the very beginning to put on one hell of a performance for a very lively crowd (to say the least). His crowd interaction skills were great and his ability to freestyle over an instrumental was incredible. I’m very much looking forward to working with Matt again!

Jackson on the Sax

I’ve been lucky enough to work alongside Jackson on the Sax a few times now. The first was for a large corporate client and well known high street retailer – Primark (at their HQ in Reading).

He’s a great guy and with his age, he comes with lots of energy (even for the liveliest of crowds). He has a real passion for music and he’s very professional!

DJ Scott Dewing & Jonny on Sax Wedding Saxophonist FAQs

The FAQs below are in relation to Jonny on Sax. Please be aware that other Wedding Saxophonists will have they’re own terms of business and their answers may vary from below. This will however give you an idea on what questions to ask the Saxophonist you feel suits your event.

I can play across a variety of genres and have a couple of Saxophones to be able to suit the style you’re after. Although myself and Scott are more than happy to create those Ibiza sets, we’ve also created playlists for several genres to ensure that we can keep the dancefloor moving. If there are any genres inparticular that you’d like to hear or have a specific track you’d like to hear, then feel free to get in touch for peace of mind!

I’m based in Colchester, Essex and am happy to travel up to 50 miles for my standard fee.

I am ofcourse happy to travel further but this would need to be discussed before I can quote.

I use an Alto and a Tenor. Each Sax has it’s own unique sound and I swap them around to ensure the Sax suits the track that’s playing.

The deposit I require to secure your date is £50.00.

Unfortunately, I’m unable to hold any date without a deposit being recieved. 

I’m more than happy to wait until the day of your Wedding for the balance but, this does need to be paid before my performance takes place.

No absolutley not. Me and Scott have a great working relationship and are both very relaxed so if you have a friend that’s DJing or have a band but would like me to play through Wedding breakfast, this is absolutley fine – I would just like their contact details to discuss the night before hand to ensure the night runs smoothly.

It will just take around 20 minutes to setup if I’m plugging in to the DJs equipment. I’ll generally arrive anywhere between 1 hour and 30 mins before my performance starts (unless we have discussed a particular requirement before hand).

Yes I have my own PA system if required. Please ensure that i’m aware of this when booking, it’s not standard practice for me to transport it to every booking.

As with every Saxophone there is a minimum volume that i’ll be able to play as I need to get the Sax to function. Generally it will be down to the DJ to adjust the mic volume through his system but, we can work this out between us on the night.

Wedding Saxophonist

Take a look at this incredible performance by Jonny not only on a variety of tracks, but played on both an Alto and a Tenor including the very highly requested ‘Jubel – Klingande’.

Jonny can be secured to play at your ceremony, drinks reception, wedding breakfast and ofcourse alongside myself in the evening but, if you have any other requirements then ofcourse he would love to hear from you and make it happen.
