Owen Athersuch (Wedding) 24 Sept 2026
10/10

We booked Claire for our wedding, she played during our confetti throw, drinks reception and then wedding breakfast.

We cannot thank Claire enough for being part of our wedding day! She was absolutely fantastic and an incredibly talented saxophonist. We cannot recommend her enough, if your thinking of booking, don't hesitate! Book now!

The saxophone is one of our favourite musical instruments, so we were absolutely delighted to have live saxophone as part of our wedding celebrations. Claire’s talent, skill, experience and professionalism were second to none, and we had so many of our guests comment on how amazing she was.

A special thank you as well for playing as we made our entrance into the wedding breakfast, it was such a memorable moment, and our guests absolutely loved it! Insomnia on the Saxo sounds epic!

Thank you again, Claire, for helping make our wedding day so special. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an incredible saxophonist for their special occasion! 🎷

Hi Claire
I just wanted to say the biggest thank you for Sunday. Your music during the day was beautiful and your playing alongside the DJ in the evening was fantastic.
I hope you enjoyed the day too. It was amazing for us and ran so well.

Claire played the saxophone at our 60th birthday celebration on an open-air boat and was absolutely fantastic.

She was highly professional from start to finish and so easy to deal with in the run-up to the party. She completely understood the atmosphere we were looking to create and played a brilliant range of music that was exactly right for the occasion.

Having live saxophone on the boat made the celebration feel really special, and Claire created such a great atmosphere for us and our guests.

We had so many lovely comments about her afterwards. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Claire for a special celebration or event — thank you for helping make our 60th such a memorable occasion!

Hi Claire,

We wanted to send our heartfelt thanks to you for the incredible role you played in making our wedding day everything we had hoped for—and more.

From start to finish, your professionalism, creativity, and care helped bring our vision to life. Every detail came together so beautifully, and we truly couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day. We felt so supported throughout the entire process, and it was clear how much passion and effort went into your work.

We’ve received so many compliments from our guests, and we know your contribution made a lasting impression. Thank you for helping create memories we’ll treasure for a lifetime.

We loved everyone moment that you were playing the sax, you truly made our dream come true.

With sincere appreciation,

We booked Claire to play alongside our DJ at our evening reception for our wedding at Sopley mill.
From the point of booking Claire really took the time to understand the vibe that we were after, and she absolutely nailed it on the night. The atmosphere was incredible, and our guests haven’t stopped talking about the performance. It was everything we had imagined and more, and it really was the best decision we made for our big day.
On top of being an amazing saxophonist, Claire is one of the nicest people we have ever met, and we can’t recommend her enough.

Mr and Mrs Harrod (Wedding) 29 Aug 2024
10/10

We hired the incredible Claire for our wedding and we are so glad we did. We’d seen Claire perform previously and knew she sounded good but on our wedding day she sparkled (literally). Starting off with some classics and smooth music for the welcome drinks, people commented on how brilliant she sounded and what a nice touch it was to have live music to watch and listen to. Claire was so friendly and kind - everyone loved her from the off. Later in the night though, alongside the DJ, Claire brought our dance floor to life! She amazed our guests with tracks like Freed from Desire and Infinity. Every glow stick was in the air as she owned the music and brought life to the dance floor. She took us all on a musical appreciation journey that we never wanted to stop, at times in videos you can see us all just dancing around her mesmerised by her fantastic tunes. All of our guests, young and old, have not stopped talking about her and we could not recommend her enough. Claire - you’re amazing. Thank you, thank you and thank you again x

Natalie Casey (Wedding) 29 Aug 2024

If anyone is looking for a saxophonist for their wedding- book this lady! She was absolutely fab at our wedding, providing drinks reception music for 2 hours. She was a hit with everyone! Booking process was so easy too and she was only a message away if we had any questions. Cannot recommend her enough!

Hey Claire, thank you so much for being a part of our big day! You were amazing and the guys loved you and you made it so special.

Me and Erin cry every time we watch the video back! Thank you so much and hopefully see you again in the future at another wedding!xxx

It was exactly the vibe we wanted and you executed it perfectly.
Thank you also for your lovely card, it's very kind of you. Needless to say we had an amazing day - the weather held out and we're only just getting over how well it all went!
Thank you once again - hopefully we'll be able to see you play again some time.

Sensational! Claire played our wedding drinks reception and was absolutely fantastic!

She put them into the perfect music set on the day and our guests all commented on how brilliant she was!

Our wedding party came to life with Claire Manners!!

An epic night for our evening reception! Having been recommended Claire by our wedding venue and knowing that she played at our favourite places in Christchurch, we knew we had to have Claire involved in our wedding! Keeping Claire a secret from our guests was tough, but well worth the surprise on our guests face!

Claire worked in collaboration with our DJ from 11:11 events and together made the set stress free for us and taking into account our favourite music.

On the evening of the wedding, Claire was unbelievable and got the vibe of our evening do. Claire was loved by all the guests with people commenting how amazing she was!

Me and Elliott would like to say another huge and special thank you, you were incredible!

Reply from Claire Manners Saxophonist
Hi Charlotte and Elliott, Thank you both so much for your lovely review. It was an honour to be a part of your evening reception and was great to see your guests reaction when I started after your first dance! Definitely a night to remember! Congratulations again to you both and sending much love and happiness for the future, Best wishes, Claire x
Ian Dickson (Wake) 19 Jul 2022
10/10

From the initial communication to the last note played.. Claire was simply amazing!

With plenty of musicians and saxophonists to choose from it was evident from the outset that Claire was a great choice. Her quick, but sensitive and considerate messages (for a wake) gave us a true indication that she would not let us down.

Her playlist was perfect for the event, and her style and approach perfectly matched the mood of the event too. I am confident she would be versatile enough to work any room with great tunes.

I have already recommended Claire to my network and will certainly be happy to use her again in the future.

Thank you Claire - you did an amazing job for us..

Hi Ian, Thank you so much for your review. It was lovely to meet you all and an honour to perform. I would welcome hearing from you again should the occasion arise. Best wishes, Claire

Claire,
Sorry for not saying thank you earlier but we really enjoyed you playing the saxophone at our house. When we have a drinks party which would be a lot smaller, we would ask you again to play next summer. We have some great photos of you which I will forward to you.
Take care and keep safe,

Martin Hughes (Private Wedding) 21 Sept 2021

We booked Claire with a week to go towards our wedding in June 2021, after government guidelines did not allow us to go ahead with our originally planned DJ.

Despite the quick turnaround of the booking Claire was an absolute gem of a performer and even due to the limited number of people available within our party everyone was so happy with the evening. Claire was able to perform a wide range of various tracks all of which were perfect for our event.

Hi Martin and Laura, Thank you so much for your review. It was an absolute honour to perform for your evening wedding reception. I'm just so happy you were able to finally marry and what a beautiful day it was for you. Congratulations again and thank you for your booking. Claire x

We would like to say a huge thank you to Claire for playing her saxophone at our wedding this year. Claire was friendly, professional and always quick to respond to emails. We’ve had such incredible feedback from our guests about Claire and are so pleased we chose her for our day. Listening to Claire was truly magical, my favourite part was when Dave and I had a couple minutes to ourselves in the garden and Claire continued to play so we could have a dance together. We reccomend Claire and her outstanding skills to anyone looking for a performer for a special event.

Reply from Claire Manners Saxophonist
Dear Alix and Dave, thank you so much for your lovely review! What a beautiful spring day for your wedding.

Claire was extremely prompt when we were enquiring for a saxophone player for our wedding. Our guests thoroughly enjoyed the saxophone playing during our wedding pre-arrival drinks.
Claire also played beautiful background music during family speeches and even moved locations through the couple of hours she was with us so all our guests got to experience the saxophone playing.
Polite, professional and extremely talented. A fantastic find and we are both so glad we booked Claire Manners for our wedding. I would recommend Claire to anyone for any occasion.
