1. Can I choose the songs for my event?

Absolutely. You can:

Tell me your preferred genres

Or send a list of up to 15 songs per hour of live music

For wedding ceremonies, I’ll need to know the specific songs you'd like for each moment.
During DJ sets, I’ll adapt to their playlist seamlessly.
Custom song requests are welcome, up to 2 songs, submitted at least 2 weeks in advance.

2. Do you bring your own sound system?

Yes. I bring a professional PA system, a wireless microphone system, and a portable Jackery power station. This allows me to perform in many suitable areas of a venue, even when a nearby power outlet is unavailable.

If your event takes place in two different areas, such as the ceremony space and the cocktail hour or reception area, I can plan the setup and transition in advance so the music flows smoothly between locations.

Most standard sized events do not require additional audio rentals for my performance. For larger venues or special production requirements, I coordinate with the venue, planner, or DJ in advance.

3. How do I book you?

Booking is simple:

1. Send your event details and confirm my availability.
2. Select the service or package that best fits your event.
3. Review and sign the digital contract.
4. Submit the required deposit through either:
   • Zelle: avillasax@gmail.com
     Recipient: AVILLASAX LLC
   • Online payment link: [Make a secure payment] by credit or debit card.

Please confirm availability and your required deposit amount before submitting payment.

Your date is officially reserved once the contract has been signed and the deposit has been received.

4. Do you perform outside of Arizona?

Yes. Arizona is my primary service area, and I currently accept select destination bookings in Las Vegas, Albuquerque, and certain locations in California.

Destination availability and pricing are determined individually based on the event date, location, schedule, and travel requirements. Please include your venue or event location when submitting an inquiry so I can provide an accurate custom quote.

5. How far in advance should I book your services?

Some clients book me 6 to 12 months in advance, especially for weddings.
If your date is still open, I’ll be happy to join you, but the earlier, the better!

Please note: your date is officially reserved and secured only after the deposit is received.

6. How long does it take you to set up?

I usually arrive 60–90 minutes early to:

Set up my equipment

Run a sound check

Be ready well before guests arrive

You don’t need to worry about setup delays or extra fees, it’s all included.

7. Can you perform outdoors?

Yes! Outdoor ceremonies and events are beautiful.
I only require:

A shaded area for the equipment and saxophone

Access to a power outlet (or let me know if a battery-powered setup is needed)

8. What happens in case of bad weather or emergencies?

Your peace of mind is a priority. If anything unexpected happens (weather or technical issues), I’ll always:

Communicate promptly

Offer alternatives

Bring backup equipment if needed
