September 30, 2026The Sax Guy is the best! He played our cocktail hour & grand entrance for our wedding this past weekend and everyone was raving about him and how great he was! He specially learned our grand entrance and having him play it made it our vision come to life!
It was the perfect addition to our perfect day & we highly recommend him to anyone looking for a sax player!

June 18, 2024The addition of The Sax Guy changed our nice event into something magnificent. He had excellent communication, timeliness, and professionalism but most importantly he was incredibly talented. I can’t wait to plan another event so that I can book him again!

December 9, 2022We had Mark "The Sax Guy" play at our daughters wedding for the cocktail hour. It was absolutely wonderful. It added that perfect elegance that you want for a special event. Our guest really enjoyed the music and are still talking about how good he was.

July 4, 2022We hired Mark (the Sax Guy) for a reenactment of our first date one year ago. We included family for a pool side Independence Day celebration and it was absolutely perfect.
Mark is prompt and professional, played exactly what we asked, and of course his sound is phenomenal. We absolutely love “The Sax Guy!” The whole family agreed to make this a tradition.
Highly recommend for a personal touch to your special events.
