I just wanted to thank DJ ben for emcee-ing and djing for my wedding and wedding reception. Ben was an effortless professional throughout the planning process, worked well with my coordinator, and handled all the day of stress of djing an awesome party without any issues. Most importantly, he played the hits and kept the party going. Thank you Ben!

Ben is absolutely amazing at what he does! He is an amazing Dj, he gave great tips and helped us with a list of songs, he also stepped up and did the officiating for us, since we didn't need a licensed officiant due to it being a vow renewal, he was able to fill in and he did an amazing job!! He was honestly a better price than any of the other djs out there that I seen and he's BETTER as far as I'm concerned. I HIGHLY recommend!! 10/10!!! Thank you Ben for everything you did, our wedding was perfect!
