Rory opened our wedding party in London with his incredible saxophone skills, giving a skilful and energetic performance to start the night with style. His jazzy tones playing over a mix of modern day classics from Smooth Operator to Despacito put smiles on the faces of every guest. Rory played a solo set for an hour and a half but also jumped on his feet and grabbed his sax to play along to some of the DJ's set throughout the night giving the crowd of dancers a musical treat every time he did. Many guests commented on how friendly and talented he was and I would highly recommend him for anyone considering Rory for their future celebrations.
