A beach wedding, scored live — DJ & saxophone, one musician.
Most wedding DJs press play. Wright plays — live saxophone woven through the night he’s also DJing, from golden-hour cocktail hour to a reception that ends with everyone still dancing. Ceremony sax on the sand is available too, as its own dedicated setup. Built for beach, tropical, and destination weddings up and down the Gulf coast.

“We had Wright DJ and play sax for our wedding. We can’t thank you enough… it added so much to the whole experience.”
John B. · Review on GigSaladThis is the part a playlist can’t do — the sax out on the floor, in the middle of your people.

Why couples book a saxophonist who DJs
Sunset Beach, Treasure Island — the kind of shoreline your ceremony actually happens on here.
A recording can fill a room. It can’t walk into it. When the saxophone comes off the stage and into the crowd — playing over the track your guests are already dancing to — the energy in the room changes, and every phone comes out. That’s the moment people describe at brunch the next morning.
Wright has spent more than forty years doing this, from opening slots for the Beach Boys, INXS, and Sha Na Na to barefoot ceremonies on the Pinellas sand. In all that time: zero missed gigs. He arrives early, sets up before your first guest, and carries backup gear — because a wedding doesn’t get a second take.
One vendor covers the whole evening, so there are no handoffs and no second setup crew — and if you add ceremony sax, it’s the same musician from the first note on the sand to the last dance.
The ceremony · +$500 add-on
Live sax as your guests settle into the sand and you make the walk — with its own dedicated beach sound setup, so it carries over the surf. Ceremony coverage is its own production, priced on its own as an add-on.
Cocktail hour · from $2,500
Sax over the Gulf breeze while the light goes gold and your guests find their first drink. Included in The Full Evening — from $2,500 — and in The Grand Evening.

Reception only. No cocktail-hour sax at this tier — that lives in the packages below. Ceremony sax is its own add-on, priced below the tiers.
Live sax as your guests settle into the sand and you make the walk, with its own dedicated beach sound setup — battery-powered PA for locations without power. It’s a separate production, so it’s priced on its own.
