Non-traditional wedding DJ
Your style
The music won’t be based on wedding trends. It will be based on your style. Ben will make playlists based on your music taste. And you and your guests will dance all night.
Minimal announcements
Ben only makes necessary announcements. Otherwise he doesn't use the mic. And he always speaks in a natural voice.
Different venues
Ben DJs at converted factories, upstate barns, and cool restaurants. Not just traditional wedding venues.
