Booked for Wedding

Paula was amazing at our wedding at The Gathering Barn on 29th June. We had so many people come up to us and compliment her. Paula is very flexible and can provide the music that 'suits the room' whilst still picking from our playlist we chose. She is super talented and even had my 92-year-old grandma up and dancing! Look no further for your saxophonist! Thanks Paula, you were great!
