"Hi Andrew
I just wanted to drop you a quick e-mail to say thank you very much for helping to make our wedding day so wonderful.
I didn't get much of a chance to listen to you playing but the ceremony music was perfect and exactly what I imagined it would be like to walk down the aisle to. We received lots of compliments throughout the day and the saxophone music fitted in perfectly with our day.
The whole day was wonderful, I would absolutely do it all again and the atmosphere that you created with your music really made a huge difference on the day.
Thank you so much!!
Helen & Phill"

Many thanks again

 Hi Andrew
Just wanted to say a big thank you for the professional service we received for Donna's wedding the music was so special and sounded great.  It made the event so special and personal for the couple as you played their choices.  The music was admired by all who attended with very positive feedback being received regarding your repertoire.  You made the occasion memorable and personal to the couple.  I would have no hesitation in recommending you as we received first class professional  service with a personal touch.
Many Thanks

Set List/Services

This is a list of some of the songs I have played at previous wedding ceremonies. I am often asked to play other songs that are special to the couple getting married, which I would be very pleased to arrange at no extra cost. It is traditional to choose one Song for the entrance of the Bridal Party. Two songs during the signing of the register, and one song for the exit.
