"THANK YOU SO MUCH! From the minute we booked M-Sax, he was so lovely and made everything really easy. He asked all the right questions, was great at communicating in the lead up to the wedding and just made the whole process so stress free. We had him play during our drinks reception straight after our ceremony and he was absolutely amazing! He played all the songs we wanted in all the right places including wedding breakfast entrance and confetti shoot and he sounded incredible. He was such a good addition to our day and SO many of our guests commented on how good he was! Not only is he a brilliant saxophonist, but he’s also such a genuinely nice guy too. We’re so glad we booked him and would 100% recommend him to anyone looking for a saxophonist. So thank YOU so much for being part of our big day, we're still on a high! Georgia & James"

Take the stress out of hiring musicians with Encore
Can any wedding breakfast musician play my favourite song?
Professional wedding breakfast musicians will often take requests, but you will need to give them plenty of notice.

You can view the wedding breakfast musician's song list on their Encore profile.
How much time do wedding breakfast musicians take to set up?
Your wedding breakfast musician will usually arrive about an hour or so before their performance begins to set up and get settled before they start playing. To avoid any delays, make sure the performance space is ready for the wedding breakfast musician prior to their arrival.
My venue has asked for the performer’s PLI & PAT inspection certificates. What are these?
PLI stands for Public Liability Insurance. This insurance covers damage to another person or their property (it is also known as third party insurance). As many of our wedding breakfast musicians are members of the Musician's Union, they are already covered by PLI up to £10 million. PAT stands for portable appliance testing. Most of our wedding breakfast musicians will already have a PAT inspection certificate for their musical equipment/PA system, which they can provide to your venue if they need it.
