Lauren C.
December 10, 2024Unforgettable Latin Jazz Band Experience
Luigi and his band were absolutely phenomenal and a true highlight of our wedding! From the very beginning, Luigi was a joy to work with—responsive, professional, and incredibly attentive to our vision. We wanted to merge Cuban and Brazilian cultures into our celebration, with live bossa nova and Latin jazz during the cocktail hour, and Luigi delivered beyond our expectations.
On the day of the wedding, Luigi arrived promptly and set the perfect tone with his professionalism and warmth. The band’s performance during the cocktail hour was exceptional, creating an elegant and lively atmosphere that immersed our guests in the rich rhythms and melodies of Latin music. Many of our guests came up to us raving about how incredible the band was—it was truly unforgettable!
We also asked Luigi to play the saxophone during the hora loca, and it was an absolute showstopper. His ability to improvise with the DJ brought an electrifying energy to the dance floor and took the party to another level. It was one of the most memorable moments of the night, and our guests couldn’t stop talking about it!
Luigi’s talent, professionalism, and passion for music made our wedding incredibly special. I will definitely hire him again for future events and can’t recommend him highly enough for anyone looking to elevate their celebration with incredible live music.

October 15, 2024What an Amazing Experience
I hired Luigi with Arredondo for a last-minute small family celebration for my mom's 77th birthday. My mom had no idea I was doing this for her; I wanted to surprise her, and let me tell you, she was stunned. The saxophone was a success, and the performance was outstanding. Luigi made this special last-minute celebration a memorable one. Thank you, Luigi, to you and your team for your professionalism and dedication. I highly recommend hiring Arredondo Music 10000% worth having a great musician on a memorable day! Thank you again! God Bless!

October 17, 2023Amazing musician!
We requested Luigi to play sax solo at my wedding and he played all the songs we requested. He plays a variety of genres, rock, salsa, pop, jazz and much more! I was beyond happy with his performance. My wedding wouldn’t be complete without him being there. His skills are top tier, he plays with a lot soul and enthusiasm. I highly recommend booking him for special events, definitely worth having a great musician on a memorable day.

Additional booking notes
For larger events and weddings with Apex Music Artistry, such as full 4+ piece bands, there is the requirement of also hiring an A/V Tech to setup the event for the talent. This is to enable a smooth event where the musicians can perform and the event can have speech mics and the likes… there may be an additional charge for lighting, sound, etc.
For festival level events, we can provide a rider upon request.
