DJ Benny Goodman
Benny Goodman Entertainment is in The Knot's Best of Weddings Hall of Fame!

Benny Goodman made my wedding a night to remember. He had everyone on the dance floor all night. He is very professional and accommodating.

Top notch! Benny was phenomenal and incredibly professional, organized, and enthusiastic during the planning stages. Benny BROUGHT THE PARTY to our company event! His song choices, lighting, and energy set the stage for a fantastic night! We’ve already talked to him about being a part of next years event!

I have attended several weddings Benny has been hired for and the one thing that always stands out is his ability to not only read the room, but to draw out the energy and get things moving! His attention to detail and genuine care for what he does is carried into how he treats his clients. His deep knowledge of music allows him to pull from all genres and get people dancing the most. I would highly recommend hiring him if you’re looking to show your loved ones one of the best celebrations they will ever attend.

Benny DJ’d our wedding a while back. A testament to how great he was is that I just saw him on TikTok and saw his face and remembered him instantly! This is a long overdue review to say that if you hire him you will be very happy with that decision. To tell you a little more: I am an American and my wife is from France, so to say that there was musical and cultural diversification would be an understatement to say the least!
Add in the fact that my wife is many years my junior Benny certainly had his work cut out for him. He took his time to get to know us as people and he kept the whole wedding party dancing with an eclectic array of music in two languages. Everybody danced and had the time of their lives! To cap it off Benny also played guitar for cocktail hour and brought the guitar and a keyboard back out for a surprise serenade for me to sing to my bride! Five stars..six if I could!!!

Benny went far beyond just going thru the motions at our wedding. He’d spent considerable time discussing our musical preferences, and delivered on show day!
He was engaging and entertaining and a big part of the event. Thank you Benny!

DJ Benny Goodman absolutely killed it! He took the time to get to know us ahead of time and took extra time in making our special requests happen, even last minute! No one stopped dancing all night! DJ Benny shouted us out all night in the most enthusiastic tone and really made us feel on top of the world! In all of our pictures on the dance floor DJ Benny is smiling just as big as we are you can truly see he was having a great time with us and absolutely LOVES what he does!

My husband and I are so thankful that we found Benny for our wedding last month in Newport. From the very first call, Benny instilled both confidence and excitement in us. I was overwhelmed by everything and when I spoke to Benny he always knew how to calm me down and figure out what I was looking for. When it came to the day of he was simply on top of everything. No one stopped dancing all night and Benny even had my little niece come and DJ with him…SO CUTE! Benny is the best of the best

We booked Benny for our wedding and we are so happy that we did! It felt like we were working with a friend who was simply an expert the entire time. Benny not only knows how to put on a party, he knows how to listen to people and pay attention to the details. My husband John and I are very picky and Benny stayed on top of everything down to making sure the last songs of the night! If you are looking for THE BEST DJ, Benny is that and more. Thank you Benny, I am still getting texts almost a month later!

Recently attended a wedding that Benny was DJ’ing. I was so impressed with the music and his ability to engage the guests that I booked him for my daughters wedding on the spot.

My wife and I hired Benny well over a year in advance after a significant amount of searching. We wanted something a little different from most weddings. We requested that Benny not play a long list of the wedding ‘classics’. For most DJs, this request would have frustrated or challenged them – forcing them outside their comfort zone. In classic Benny fashion, he said “rock on, let’s do this!” We knew music would be the most important part of our night and Benny delivered, and then some. We had multiple long phone calls game planning exactly what the night would look like. When he says he is always available, he really is. Benny was not shy to share pointers and tips as he was a veteran at our venue. A true team player, and able to deliver on whatever you want your night to be! Thanks so much for making our wedding truly special.

DJ Benny Goodman kept the party going all night at our wedding! He was very professional, and he was especially helpful with input to the reception timeline, which we really appreciated. He had great energy and all the guests had a lot of fun. Thanks Benny!

Benny created the most beautiful, real, and fun wedding party that was also 100% us. Many of our guests have told us that they have never danced this much in their lives. We had a blast and each song we played is etched into my brain, made special by the fact that it was part of our wedding. And maybe the first ever father-daughter dance to Ripple in the history of the world?!!! It wouldn’t have happened without passion Benny’s lazer-sharp attention to detail, generosity, and hilariousness. We couldn’t be luckier to have him with us on our special day.
