June 29, 2026Just do it !!!!
We hired Brian Pierini to perform at our wedding, and without question, it was one of the best decisions we made. I'll admit, my husband tried more than once to convince me that hiring a saxophonist wasn't necessary and that it was just another expense for our already extravagant wedding. By the end of the night, though, he had completely changed his mind. I think he said at least ten times that hiring Brian was the best decision we made—second only to marrying me, of course! It quickly became one of the highlights of the entire celebration.
Brian's energy, talent, and ability to engage the crowd completely transformed the atmosphere. From the moment he started playing, guests were on the dance floor having an incredible time. We lost count of how many people came up to us throughout the night asking for Brian's contact information and telling us how amazing he was. Everyone was talking about him, and he truly elevated the entire experience.
What made it even more special was that Brian went above and beyond by learning and performing an entire Macedonian song just for us. That personal touch meant the world to our family and friends. Seeing everyone's excitement and hearing their reactions is a memory we'll cherish forever. It wasn't just a performance—it was a thoughtful gesture that made our wedding feel uniquely ours.
Brian is an extraordinary musician, an absolute professional, and worth every single dollar. In fact, I honestly think he could charge more given the level of talent, preparation, and entertainment he brings. If you're considering booking him for your wedding or special event, don't hesitate. It will be one of the best investments you make, and your guests will be talking about it long after the event is over. We can't recommend Brian highly enough!

June 25, 202610 Year Anniversary Party
Brian was absolutely incredible at our 10-year anniversary party. From the moment he started playing, he brought such an amazing energy and completely elevated the entire vibe of the night. He’s insanely talented, professional, easy to work with, and knew exactly how to read the room.
Our guests could not stop talking about how much they loved having live sax — it added such a fun, classy, and memorable touch to the party. Brian was a huge part of what made the night feel so special, and we would 100% recommend him to anyone looking to take their event to the next level.

June 9, 2026Your Wedding isn't complete without Brian!
One of the best decision's my wife and I made for our wedding was hiring Brian to play saxophone! We hired him for our whole day and I am telling you it is worth it!! Before the big day, Brian is super organized, sending us his most played songs as well as a schedule to fill out. He encourages you to be as detailed as possible so he can deliver the best performance for you! Our ceremony and reception were at 2 different locations and he handled this like a professional by setting up and being early. Now lets get to the fun stuff! He added so much liveliness to the ceremony, playing off of the DJ'd songs and it created an amazing atmosphere as me, the wedding party, and wife, walked down the aisle. He played classic saxaphone songs at the cocktail hour which was set in a speakeasy style bar, setting the mood for the night and then during the dancing he was the star of the party. Having him embellishing the songs the DJ's playing while live in the middle of the dance floor had every guest at our wedding on the dance floor. Everybody had so many good things to say about him, telling us how much fun it was after. Thank you Brian!! Trust me, you need him at your wedding!

Brian played the sax at our wedding on 5/3 and was genuinely one of the best parts of our wedding. He was the first vendor we booked as we read so many amazing reviews and knew we needed to have him at our event. He played our cocktail hour, dinner, and open dancing. He was the life of the party and brought so much energy to our event. Everyone was OBSESSED with him and kept telling us that he was the most hard working person there!!!! Our wedding would not have been half of what it was without him. Thank you so so much for making our wedding so special!
