DJ Ben was fantastic the entire way through our event! Getting there early to check sound, being flexible with guests requesting songs and hitting every queue for the start and end of the ceremony/first dance, etc. He was amazing for a very reasonable amount! I highly recommend hitting up DJ Ben for all your event needs (especially weddings!)
