Wedding Ceremony
The best ballads and solemn music for moments like the walk down the aisle, the rings, or other key moments of the wedding ceremony. Consult the repertoire for inspiration.
🥂 The Emotional Touch: Music for the Ceremony
The ceremony is the heart of your wedding, and music has the power to turn those moments into unforgettable memories. As a saxophonist, I am responsible for providing the perfect soundtrack for your "I do". The saxophone brings an unparalleled emotion and warmth to the key moments of the ceremony:
The ceremony music begins with the Guests' Arrival (pre-ceremony), offering a soft and welcoming melody for your loved ones. This initial ambience culminates in the most emotional moment, the Walk Down the Aisle, where the chosen melody accompanies your steps, creating a magical and unforgettable atmosphere.
During the ceremony, the Interludes are key musical moments that enhance the solemnity of the act and allow for smooth transitions. The grand finale arrives with the Recessional (Exit of the Couple), a joyful and festive piece, charged with energy, celebrating your new and exciting beginning together.
Tailored Music
Your love is unique, and your music should be too. To ensure the soundtrack is perfect, you can check the Repertoire tab, where you have a wide range of classics and current hits at your disposal. Furthermore, if you have a Special Request—a song that defines you and is not on the list—no problem! I will be delighted to prepare and adapt it on the sax so it sounds exactly as you imagined on your big day.
To give you an idea of the energy we will create, I invite you to get inspired: look for my versions and covers on YouTube or Instagram by searching for SAXONARA. Listen to my style and visualize how that energy will culminate in the Recessional (Exit of the Couple), with a joyful and festive piece that celebrates your new and exciting beginning together. Let the sax set the rhythm of your path to the altar.

💡 Flexibility and Exclusive Services: Your Wedding, Your Rules
Every wedding tells a different story, and the music must be a true reflection of your taste. Therefore, the description of my services is only an initial guide.
My commitment is to work on every proposal in a completely personalized way: from the choice of songs to the timing synchronization. I coordinate closely with your Wedding Planner, the DJ, the venue team, and anyone involved to ensure the musical flow is impeccable and seamless.
The music will be 100% adapted to your requests, ensuring the soundtrack to your day is exactly as you dreamed. Here are other ideas and special performances that other couples have requested to make their day truly unique:
✨ High-Impact Appearances: The Surprise Factor
Sometimes, the key to an unforgettable moment is surprise. The sax not only creates ambience, but it can star in a triumphant entrance!
I recall, for example, an occasion where my appearance at the end of the banquet was totally unexpected: I performed the first track from the balcony of the estate before all the guests, generating an immediate wow effect. Then, I walked down among the tables playing a second track and culminated by leading everyone present in a festive conga line to the open bar area.
These Spectacular Appearances are perfect for the transition between dinner and the party. The service joins the DJ & Sax Show to ensure that, once people hit the dance floor, the energy never drops.
Surprise your guests with an entrance that will become the anecdote of the wedding!
🍽️ Banquet Ambience: The Rhythm Between Courses
For dinner, I offer two options that adapt to your style:
- Sophisticated Background: A soft and elegant ambience (Jazz, Bossa, or Lounge), with saxophone and backing tracks or DJ mixes, to discreetly accompany conversation.
- Explosive Sets: We create 2 or 3 party interventions during the banquet. High-impact live music, ideal for coordinating with gift giving, surprises, or a dance break that energizes the room before the after-party.
💃 The First Dance: Your Moment, Your Beat
The first dance is the official transition to the party and we usually link it to the Party / DJ service.
I prepare the music upon request of the couple, creating a personalized track with the exact duration you need. This allows you to prepare your choreography or special moment, and when it ends, the DJ & Sax energy immediately kicks off the open bar!

Logistics, AV Equipment & Sound
To ensure optimal sound quality across outdoor gardens, villas, or indoor halls, high-end professional sound and lighting equipment is required.
When full AV equipment is required, I partner directly with specialized production partners such as SoundEvent. This allows us to supply and integrate top-tier sound and light setups seamlessly.
When full AV equipment is required, I partner directly with specialized production partners such as SoundEvent. This allows us to supply and integrate top-tier sound and light setups seamlessly.
If your venue or DJ already provides the sound system, I will send over my technical rider specifying the input connections for saxophone and backing tracks. If we supply the sound equipment through SoundEvent, we handle setup and soundcheck end-to-end.
In all cases, all that is needed on-site is a standard power outlet (220V) near the performance area and a flat space protected from rain or direct sunlight.

Absolutely. I perform using a professional wireless microphone system attached to my saxophone, allowing me to roam freely among your guests, join you on the dance floor, or move effortlessly between ceremony and reception areas.
We plan all multi-location transitions in advance so the music flows naturally between ceremony, drinks reception, and party areas. SAXONARA can coordinate directly with your venue manager or wedding planner to handle all multi-stage setups seamlessly.
I typically arrive 60 to 90 minutes before performance start time to set up, conduct soundchecks, and coordinate with your wedding coordinator.

Arnald was fantastic to work with when we planned our wedding in Girona this May. He was friendly and quick to respond to emails, had a great existing selection of music to choose from, and also very kindly agreed to play some songs we had requested, which he learned especially for our wedding! We couldn't have been happier with our decision to have Arnald play the music for us walking down the aisle, during the ceremony, aperitif and the evening meal. Our guests were so impressed with him and he was a perfect addition to our big day. We could not recommend him more!!!
