What can I say, but he was fantastic. DJ Ben did our ceremony mic and our reception and was fantastic the whole way. Communication was fantastic, an online song request list was convenient and ensured no mistakes were made with our selections. We have an ethnic family and DJ Ben was able to ensure songs we wanted were played and the entire family enjoyed every moment. Highly recommend! A++ service!

It was absolutely great working with Ben. He was flexible, even played a bunch of polish songs we asked for. All of our guests were up and dancing all night. Would recommend!
Livin & Dancin DJ Services's reply:
Hi Joanna, thank you for dropping in and putting a few kind words of support in. Had a gas playing to you and your guests what with a great collection of Polish songs you had suggested would be enjoyed by many in attendance.

Dj for wedding ceremony and reception
DJ Ben was amazing.!! We were married at tunnel Mountain. Reservoir then had our reception at The Moose Hotel and Suites in Beautiful Banff on May 14th 2022. DJ Ben did the music for both the ceremony and reception and did an exceptional job. Right from when my wedding planner booked him to when he sent us the info on how to go through the songs and make must play list to do not play list. Very professional and he makes it very easy to ensure that we had the songs we wanted to hear at the reception as well as the songs we needed for the ceremony. He kept the dance floor full the whole night.
We would recommend him all day long.
Tamara and Jaro.
Livin & Dancin DJ Services's reply:
Hi Tamara, a genuine thanks for putting a good word in on my behalf, and for putting your trust in your planner who invited me to be an important part of your day. Had a great day with you and your many guests.
And your venue of choice, The Moose Hotel & Suites (Banff) , a first for me. Great spot, with a more contemporary vibe.
Best wishes for a life of happiness and many adventures,
DJ Ben

Best Wedding DJ!!
Ben was simply amazing - he read the crowd and knew what to play to keep people on their feet. Moreover, I appreciated that he made sure to include some of our requests. Would recommend to any friends and family who are looking to have their wedding in the Canmore or Banff area. Dancing is one of the best - if not the best - part of the reception, and you want the best in the DJ booth. Don't look any further - book him!
Livin & Dancin DJ Services's reply:
Hi Lindsay, thanks so much for taking time to show your support and appreciation. Couldn't agree more, it's all about family, friends and a great dance party with something for everyone.
All the best to you and Travis,
DJ Ben

DJ Reception
Ben Dj'd our wedding reception April 8, 2023 in Banff, AB. Ben was really easy to work with when planning our music and schedule for the evening. He was also flexible when our reception schedule required a few unexpected pivots.
Livin & Dancin DJ Services's reply:
Hi Carleigh, thank you for making time to show your appreciation of my service. My post event notes tell me it was a pretty full on evening of dance, with of course a couple of lulls along the way. Always a treat when a client's guest list turns out to be a fun dancing group.
All the best,
DJ Ben

Highly Recommend!
You can't go wrong with DJ Ben. At the last minute we decided to change to an outdoor pavilion at the same site. Emailed Ben and he responded with additional equipment to handle the music for our outdoor ceremony and for a very reasonable cost.
His experience, easy going nature and his pre-planning forms really made things go off without a hitch and the music was one of the most stress free parts of our ceremony.
He happily played all the songs I setup (I think probably more than most people ask for) and threw in many good DJ picks. He responded to all requests promptly from line dancing to maritime music. The dance floor was going with people of all ages right after dinner. The wedding party closed down the dance floor at 1 am.
I spent a lot of time doing research on the DJ before the wedding and briefly though about cutting costs on this part of the wedding but decided to go with Ben as his reviews were all amazing. I've attended more than my fair share of weddings and the music is a huge factor in the quality of the party.
I highly recommend DJ Ben. Thanks for helping to make it such a great night.
