"Paolo was a fantastic addition to our wedding day at Villa Durazzo, Santa Margherita. His performance on the Sax was 10/10 and not only was he extremely friendly and loved by all of our guests but he was also extremely professional.
We had a special, last minute, request on the day itself which Paolo was able to happily accommodate and make possible for us.
We are so pleased we chose him to be part of our wedding day and would highly recommend to anybody considering having a sax player who can bring the vibes !
Thank you Poalo! Best, Tish and Ben"
"We couldn’t have asked for a better saxophonist for our wedding weekend. From the very beginning, he was incredibly professional, proactive, and easy to work with. He communicated smoothly not only with us but also with the venue, which made the whole process stress-free. He perfectly understood our musical preferences and selected songs that created exactly the atmosphere we were looking for. His performance truly elevated our pool party and was the finishing touch that made the event unforgettable. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a talented, reliable, and professional musician! 🎷✨"
"We could not have asked for a better DJ and saxophonist for our wedding in Italy. From the cocktail hour to dinner and the dance floor, every moment of the evening was perfectly matched with the right music and energy. One of the things that impressed us most was how well they were able to read the room and adapt throughout each phase of the event, creating exactly the atmosphere we envisioned. Our guests travelled from three different countries—Italy, Ukraine, and the United States—and we received countless compliments from all of them about the music. Bringing together multiple cultures and musical tastes can be challenging, but they made it seem effortless. Everyone felt included, engaged, and excited to celebrate. The live saxophone performance added an incredible touch of elegance and energy, while the DJ kept the flow of the evening seamless from start to finish. The dance floor was full, the transitions were flawless, and the music truly became one of the highlights of our wedding. We are so grateful for their professionalism, talent, and attention to detail. If you are looking for someone who can create the perfect soundtrack for your wedding or special event, we cannot recommend them highly enough. — Matthew & Anastasia."
