Reviews of Otis Philip

We cannot recommend Otis highly enough! We booked him quite late in our wedding planning process after deciding we really wanted a saxophonist, and from the very beginning he was incredibly responsive, communicative, and easy to work with.

Otis performed during our reception drinks and for our wedding breakfast entrance. The vibes he created for the wedding breakfast entrance were absolutely amazing and set the tone perfectly. He had our guests dancing on chairs, waving their napkins, and fully embracing the celebration - it was such a memorable moment and one that everyone is still talking about!

He kept our guests entertained so well throughout the day that we actually extended his performance by an additional 45 minutes after the wedding breakfast to bridge the gap before the evening band started. It was one of the best decisions we made, as he kept the atmosphere buzzing.

If you're considering booking a saxophonist for your wedding or event, don't hesitate to book Otis. He was professional, talented, engaging, and played a huge part in making our day so special. Thank you, Otis!

Otis was absolutely amazing at our wedding! Created a perfect atmosphere. Everyone commented how fantastic he was and I can’t recommend highly enough. Thank you!

Otis is amazing, he played at our wedding in October and made the party really go off!! He is so easy to deal with, turned up on time and just set the mood all night. If you want a great party, I would 100% recommend Otis.

Absolute legend - great talent, nice guy and for me the best saxophonist around

We had the absolute pleasure of having Otis play the saxophone at our wedding, and he was incredible. If you’re considering live music for your wedding or event, we can’t recommend Otis enough. He’s a true professional. Thank you!

Absolutely fantastic performance for our wedding day, perfect surprise for my new wife and all of our guests were surprised and were commenting how great you were, would 100% recommend. Thank you

We can't thank you enough for playing at our wedding at such short notice. Otis was very happy to help he's polite, goes out of his way to make your day as special as you want it and a very good saxophonist and we couldn't recommend him enough and we would definitely hire him again if we needed to.

Otis performed at our wedding in August and brought so much joy to our day. He tailored his music to exactly what we had wanted, and learnt multiple songs for us which we are so grateful for.

Otis was super easy to communicate with and always really responsive. He set up with loads of time on the day and we’re so grateful he made the journey to Hereford for us!

All our guests commented on how talented, fun and effortlessly cool Otis was - having him play the sax was a huge highlight of our day.

Otis played at our wedding back in August and he helped in creating the perfect arrival for our evening guests at our drinks reception.
Communication was great whilst booking and leading up to the day. We had a great hip hop/R&B vibe for our first set and a fantastic sunset Ibiza vibe for our second set.
Thank you so so much, Otis! You really helped make our day so perfect!

Fats and Alan wedding review

Otis is an amazing person with an absolute talent with the saxophone he did an amazing job he brought a new dynamic to our wedding, making our day even more special we would highly recommend him

Otis was absolutely brilliant. Not just a superb sax player, but also a wonderful guy. We booked Otis as a surprise for my wife on our wedding day and from start to finish he delivered everything we could have hoped for. My wife loved it so much we had our photos done in a different spot so we could still hear him! It was one of the highlights of our day and I would highly recommend Otis to anyone thinking of booking! Thank you, Otis.

Otis what can I say other than thanks for an amazing performance, which was a surprise for my daughter's wedding. All the guests commented that it was one of the highlights of a wonderful day. You played our first requested song but then continued to delight us with many more great tunes. I am happy to say you were 100% the right sax player and anyone looking for someone superb should check you out! Thanks again!

Otis understood exactly what we wanted and delivered it exceptionally well. He had all our guests completely engaged and it added a touch of class to our wedding. I highly recommend Otis, he is a very skilful saxophonist. He worked so hard, performing at the highest level, the music flowed and I got so many comments from my guests about how good he was, the energy he brought to the room, and what a pleasure it was to experience him playing.

Wow - Otis was absolutely brilliant and a highlight of our wedding day, all our guests absolutely loved his music! I couldn’t reccomend booking him enough for a wedding or other event, he was amazing!

Otis played for us during our wedding drinks reception. So many of our guests commented on how amazing he was and he truely made an atmosphere to remember. Thanks so much Otis - won’t hesitate to use you again for future events!

We had Otis play at our wedding a couple of weeks ago, when I first suggested having a sax player to my partner he wasn’t sure, however both of us and all of our guests can agree it was one of the best decisions of the wedding! From start to finish Otis was friendly, professional and really elevated our whole wedding day. As soon as he started playing the guests were up and dancing! I had so many people come up to my during and after the performance saying how brilliant he was and how much they enjoyed it. I honestly cannot recommend Otis enough, not just for weddings but any event where you want that something extra special. Thank you so much again Otis, and hopefully we will be able to have you at one of our future events! ☺️

Otis was amazing. Played all our requests, looked very cool too. Would highly recommend :)

Otis was amazing!! He played during the drinks reception at our charity ball and created such a fun, welcoming vibe for the guests . He was polite, professional and played a great mix of songs so well. I would 100% recommend Otis for any event- thank you so much!!

Otis played at our son’s wedding and was brilliant. He got the atmosphere and vibe perfectly. His quality was outstanding

Amazing young man for my daughter’s 21st birthday. Fantastic saxophonist highly recommended. I will be booking Otis again soon. X

Otis was absolutely phenomenal. From the moment he arrived, he brought professionalism, warmth, and grace to what was an incredibly emotional day for our family. He was punctual, immaculately dressed, and blended in seamlessly with both our guests and the tone of the occasion.

His saxophone playing was nothing short of top-tier — soulful, precise, and deeply moving. He led the procession with such poise and delivered every musical moment with sensitivity and skill. Many of our guests commented on how much his presence elevated the entire service.

I would highly recommend Otis to anyone looking for a talented and respectful saxophonist for any special event. His music speaks volumes, and so does his professionalism.

Thank you again, Otis — you were a true highlight of the day.

Otis was absolutely amazing for our wedding! He is so talented, all our guests kept saying how amazing he was. He learnt my favourite song for me to walk down the aisle to, which sounded absolutely beautiful. He is so professional and a pleasure to work with. We would definitely recommend Otis

Otis… wow!! He definitely blew us all away with his skills. Made our special day warm and welcoming and then got everyone ready and excited for the evening. We can’t say enough how insanely incredible this man is and what he can do. Thank you Otis so much for making our day extra perfect. Can’t wait to hear you again!

The performance was an absolute highlight of the birthday celebration. Otis is a talented performer who expertly adapted to the party’s vibe. His performance added a unique, unforgettable touch to the birthday party. Highly recommended!

We can’t thank Otis enough for stepping in at the last minute and absolutely smashing it at my daughter’s 21st party! After being let down, we were in a panic, but he came through and delivered an unforgettable performance. His energy was incredible, getting the crowd up and dancing in no time. The setlist was perfectly curated to suit all ages, keeping everyone entertained from start to finish. His talent and professionalism were second to none. You truly made the night special, and we couldn’t have asked for better. Highly recommend! - Langport

Absolutely amazing. Booked very last minute due to a cancellation and he saved the night.
Couldn’t recommend enough. He was outstanding and played all our song requests.
Thank you again from all of us at Halua House Langport x

Huge thanks to Otis Philip for an unforgettable performance at our art exhibition opening night! Philip's music was a beautiful complement to the artwork on display, creating an atmosphere that truly elevated the experience. Communication was seamless from start to finish, and Otis Philip was incredibly accommodating, easily adapting to our schedule and event flow. The performance featured a diverse selection of songs, each adding depth and richness to the evening. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect addition to our event!

I booked Otis to perform at my daughter’s 18th birthday.
From start to finish he was a pleasure to deal with and always very friendly, accommodating and professional.
He took time to find out what kind of music we wanted played on the night.
He worked very closely with the venue and myself to decide how best the sound system would work for the night.
We chatted through how we wanted the music broken down for the evening. He worked with us and made sure we had a huge say in all the decisions.
When the day arrived he turned up in plenty of time on the night and was ready to go at the agreed time.
All our guests loved his music, style and he brought the whole atmosphere together on the night.

We enjoyed Otis’ company at the end of the night when he sat and chatted with us while enjoying a drink.

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Otis for your occasion.
The beauty with how he plays the Saxophone brings a great atmosphere and energy to your event.

Many thanks Otis

Otis, you are a talented and exceptional saxophonist.
Thank you so much for playing throughout the day at our wedding, during the ceremony, afternoon tea and with the DJ at our evening party.
We loved you, our guests loved you.
You were the model of professionalism in our dealings in the lead up to our big day, kind, friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Communication was always easy.
Thank you for playing the special songs we requested for our ceremony- you made it extra special. It was so lovely having live saxophone as I walked down the aisle. It was magical.
We really couldn’t have asked for anyone better. We would thoroughly recommend you for any special occasion. Thank you so much.
Heather & Phil

He is a very talented performer and we would highly recommend him to anyone looking for that extra pizzazz and adding a special touch to their celebration
