SaxoDance Was the Life of Our Cocktail Hour

We are so pleased with our decision to hire Stephane to perform for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. He is very professional and helped us craft our processional walk. He learned the songs that we wanted to mark each moment, and let us curate his broad repertoire to our liking. He is a very talented player and provided great entertainment for our cocktail hour, even playing past our designated time as our dinner got delayed. Our fiends and family enjoyed socializing with him and his wife/assistant Suzanne. They both really helped make our day so magical, and created many great photo moments. I can’t recommend SaxoDance enough :)

The best decision we made

Stéphan is amazing. From the beginning, he was so professional and responsive and made the process of planning the day so easy.

On our wedding day, he exceeded every expectation. His wife Suzanne checked in with us at the earliest chance to make sure we knew everything was set up and Stéphan’s performance was excellent.

We had so many guests tell us how special it was to have a live saxophone and that it made the day so memorable. We highly recommend it to any couple looking for that extra something for their cocktail hour and dancefloor and Stéphan is your guy.

Amazing saxophonist

On voulait te remercier pour l'ambiance et la belle énergie que tu as apporté, c'était complètement électrisant! Et les invités aussi ont adoré, tout le monde nous en parlait le lendemain. C'était en haut de nos attentes, merci beaucoup ! Et aussi, belle surprise pour nous quand ta femme a chanté pendant quelques chansons.

Juste wow!!!! ✨

Stephan a été exceptionnel et a vraiment ajouté la touche « wow » à notre mariage! 🎷✨ Nous avions hésité avant d’engager un saxophoniste, mais cetait sans aucun doute l’une de nos meilleures décisions!

Whether you're planning an elegant cocktail reception, a lively corporate celebration or an unforgettable wedding, the experience can be customized to suit your event.

About

I'm Stéphan Pelletier, the creator and performer behind SaxoDance.

After a rewarding career in engineering and business, I returned to my lifelong passion for music, particularly the saxophone.

Combining my musical creativity with my engineering background, I developed exclusive arrangements and technologies that allow me to perform rich, layered saxophone harmonies, along with creative special effects, bringing an exciting fullness and dimension to familiar popular songs.

But what I enjoy most is connecting with people through music — seeing their smiles, interacting with guests, creating spontaneous moments and watching the energy of a celebration come alive.

That's what inspired SaxoDance: not simply performing music, but creating an experience people genuinely enjoy and remember.

Today, I bring SaxoDance to weddings, corporate events and private celebrations across Ontario and Quebec, performing in both English- and French-speaking environments.

Additional booking notes

Professional sound system available if required, including equipment setup, sound checks and teardown. I can also coordinate directly with your DJ or venue's audiovisual team.
