Isaiah is the most exceptional musician/DJ you can hire for your wedding! We’ve seen Isaiah perform live at various venues around New England and he was our first choice on our wedding vendor list. Isaiah played live music during cocktail hour and dinner, then seamlessly transitioned into a DJ later in the night and helped keep the dancefloor going all night. He accommodated all our requests and sang them beautifully. All of our guests raved about how amazing he was and are still raving about how great he was weeks after our wedding! If Isaiah is available for your wedding day, he is an absolute must!
We are so grateful we booked Isaiah Bennett for our wedding in August 2024! When we got engaged and were researching potential DJs, I immediately thought of Isaiah who had performed at my cousin’s wedding a few years prior. We love live music and acoustic guitar but also wanted the traditional DJ experience for our reception so Isaiah was the best of both worlds for our wedding! He was wonderful to work with throughout the process, making sure all of our questions were answered leading up to our big day. He has such a relaxed, easy-going personality and definitely helped make our wedding stress free - it was truly the best night of our lives! He did such a great job performing all the songs we selected for our ceremony and he even played our first dance song live, which made it even more special. So many of our guests came to us and raved about Isaiah and how impressed they were by his talent, energy, and ability to keep everyone jamming on the dance floor all night long. We can’t say enough good things about Isaiah - he’s just an all around great guy, amazing performer, and true professional. Don’t hesitate to book him for your wedding!
I cannot come up with enough kind and complimentary words to describe Isaiah, the passion he brings to his music, and his incredible talent. He is absolutely amazing and made our wedding day so very special. I’m still in awe that we were able to have him be part of it. We had Isaiah play during our welcoming, ceremony, and cocktail hour – and I could have sat and listened to him play all day long and our guests all agreed! They were all serenaded during cocktail hour and in awe of his musical ability. Not only did he cover many of our favorite songs across country music, indie, folk, and pop – he did so with such class and style. He also went above and beyond to help me add a very special touch to our ceremony. He worked with me ahead of time to customize lyrics to the song Do You Remember by Jack Johnson to personalize to our story as a couple – which he then played while my husband and I both walked into the ceremony area with our parents. I’m still crying (happy tears) thinking about it… If you are lucky enough to be able to work with Isaiah at your wedding, see him live at The Goat in Portsmouth, or catch one of his other shows please do so now!!! Thank you again Isaiah for making our day so special – you have a very special place in our hearts!
Working with Isaiah for our wedding was a dream! Not only is he a professional, but he's incredibly passionate about his work. He played live as guests were arriving to our ceremony, during cocktail hour, and for our first dance. The transition to DJing and filling the dance floor was seamless. Even now, weeks after the fact, family and friends continue to bring up how amazing he was. Do yourself a favor and book now! You will not have a single regret.
I cannot express how absolutely amazing Isaiah was. He sang live for our ceremony, cocktail hour, & dinner and then DJ'd the rest of the night. Us & our guests were absolutely blown away by his singing, but also by the way he took our couple of "must play" songs and truly made the most perfect, personalized set list. His energy continued all night - keeping all of our guests on the dance floor- and he even did a NYE countdown to midnight for us. We could not possibly recommend Isaiah more!
We are so happy we were able to book such a talented musician for our wedding day. He sang and performed a beautiful ceremony with a violinist. He also kept the dance floor full all night as a DJ. An extremely nice guy with a great attitude. Thank you Isaiah!
Isaiah was awesome at our Maine lakeside wedding! We got tons of compliments from our guests on how great cocktail hour was, and Isaiah kept the events of the night moving along well, MCing the dinner portion of our evening too. I highly recommend hiring him!
Isaiah was the perfect choice for our wedding! He completely understood what we were looking for in music so we had the perfect combination throughout our entire wedding and reception. Having him play during our ceremony and cocktail hour was icing on the cake - and he was such an amazing sport when a rogue kid guest went for her solo :) Isaiah was so easy to work with and all night our guests were raving about him. Thank you, Isaiah!
If you are looking for a combination of acoustic/live singing and a DJ for your wedding Isaiah is the person to go with. He is incredibly talented, friendly, professional and easy to work with. His acoustic performances made our first dance, ceremony and cocktail hour so special. Not only is he an amazing artist, but he brings the best energy to the dance floor as a DJ. Our guests loved him! You won't regret choosing Isaiah for your next event!
Isaiah was a true ray of sunshine on our rainy wedding day and so incredibly musically talented. He was super flexible since most of our wedding was supposed to be outside and needed to change last minute, and did everything with a smile and laid back attitude! His voice and guitar skills are crowd-wowing, and our dance floor was completely full through the night with his DJ abilities. My husband and I would plan another wedding just to be able to hire him again! Thank you so much, Isaiah you rock!!
Run, don't walk, if you're looking for a wedding singer / DJ! Isaiah was exactly what we were looking for and everything we didn't know we needed. He sang and played guitar for our intimate ceremony then was a killer DJ for our large reception. My guests absolutely loved him and I can't count how many people asked for his name / contact info to perform at one of their events. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!
If you’re looking for a live performer who’s enthusiastic, timely, professional, experienced and exceptionally talented, look no further than Isaiah Bennett. We hired Isaiah for our wedding in the fall of 2022 and we’re glad we did. He performed all the songs we suggested, both during the ceremony and the reception, and then he also DJ-ed the reception party including the list of songs we wanted. Isaiah was very easy to work with and communicable. We were very impressed with Isaiah and he made our wedding day that much more special!
My bride and I feel so fortunate to have attended a wedding in which Isaiah performed and subsequently were able to book him for our own wedding. He was incredible to work with from the very start - being available, flexible, energetic yet calm and doing everything in his powers to ensure our day was as memorable as it could be. He performed at our ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner and reception and just kept out doing himself at each event. If Isaiah has availability on your wedding date, stop now, and immediately book him. You will not regret it for a second! In fact, multiple guests at our wedding came up to us asking for his information for their own weddings/loved ones weddings in the future. My bride and I could not be more thankful for Isaiah and would recommend him to everyone!
Isaiah- DJ, vocalist, and guitarist- was an absolute rockstar at our wedding! He brought an incredible amount of energy, packed the dance floor, and made sure everything ran smoothly. He was totally on top of his game!
Isaiah made our first dance song truly unforgettable. His voice is incredible and it was a magical moment that we'll cherish forever.
Right from the start, Isaiah showed his professionalism and dedication. We had meetings before the big day to discuss our preferences, and it paid off big time. He had everything planned to perfection, making sure every transition was seamless and flawless.
Isaiah's ability to read the crowd was outstanding. The dance floor was never empty, and he knew exactly how to keep the party going. The atmosphere was electric, and everyone had a blast!
If you're looking for a top-notch wedding DJ, vocalist, and guitarist, Isaiah is your go-to guy. He has the skills, passion, and charisma to make your special day absolutely amazing. Trust us, you won't be disappointed. If you haven't already, BOOK HIM!
Isaiah seriously went above and beyond what we could've asked for on our wedding day. People genuinely thought we had two different vendors because of how he sang so amazingly and then DJ'd the rest of the right - you will not find anyone like him. Truly the best and we wish we could do it all over again with him there!
Isaiah is the ABSOLUTE BEST! From a killer dance floor to incredible cocktail hour and beyond-expectation ceremony music, Isaiah was the best person for our special day. He was flexible and easy to work with - he always provided a helpful opinion and a timely response when needed. He is also a fantastic person with a great sense of humor that made our day extra special. We could not recommend Isaiah more - he is one of a kind!!
Isaiah is truly the best of the best. We had a very specific vision about what we wanted for our wedding music. We wanted an acoustic singer for the ceremony/cocktail hour and then a DJ for the reception. Isaiah was both of those things and as soon as we uncovered him, we knew we needed to book ASAP. For starters, his voice and style of music fit our ambiance and is the style of music my fiancé and I love. We had out-of-the-box requests for our ceremony and cocktail music, and Isaiah didn’t even flinch when we mentioned those songs. He learned the ones he didn’t know and blew everyone out of the water. Then for our first dance, Isaiah decided to play it live for us which was incredible. When he transitioned into a DJ, he kept the dance floor going all night and I got to do exactly what I wanted to do during my reception – dance with my groom and everyone else nonstop for hours! So many people were in awe that our singer and DJ were the same person – because it’s so much talent packed into one person! You seriously won’t regret booking Isaiah and if we had to plan our wedding all over again, we would book him again!
If you are reading this, stop what you are doing and book Isaiah now for your wedding! Isaiah was incredible to work with. Not only is he amazingly talented, but he is an overall great person. He understood our style of music and offered great suggestions when I got stuck on songs to play. Our wedding guests complimented us the most for the musical talents of Isaiah. Everybody was asking how we found him! Not one regret with having him as part of our wedding. Isaiah helped to make our wedding day special and I hope you get the chance to let him do the same for you.
Choosing Isaiah for our music was one of the best wedding decisions we made! He was so easy to work with throughout the whole process, even with some special requests, and the music was amazing. I loved having the combo of live ceremony and cocktail hour music with his vocals/guitar and then the DJ'ed reception. We got a ton of compliments too. Highly recommend Isaiah!
Isaiah is so talented that not one, but several of our guests, thought he was TWO different people. Imagine all of that talent packed into one human!? He sang acoustically as guests arrived, throughout our ceremony and again for our first dance, then switched over to our DJ for the remainder of the night. His presence throughout our ceremony was so calming, and as our DJ he brought the energy. It’s really no surprise that guests thought we hired two separate people. He adapts to the different events in a wedding like a chameleon! Not only does he have a beautiful voice, but he is an absolute delight to work with. He is so kind, has zero ego and is all about creating the perfect musical vibe to fulfill the couple’s needs, super fun and energetic, professional, a master at his craft and all around just a good person. My husband and I have very particular tastes in music and love an eclectic range of genres so needless to say, our curated playlist did not include your typical “wedding” songs. He played the entire thing from start to finish and we loved every second of it. We gave him very little direction about what music to play throughout dinner, but just let him know in advance what genres we love, some bands we love, and songs we’d prefer to avoid. I lost count of how many times I heard a song come on that I absolutely adore. It’s like he knew exactly what to play for us to make us happy! The music throughout our wedding was such a massive part of our special day and we cannot thank Isaiah enough. We will forever be recommending him to anyone getting married in our lives going forward, and to anyone reading this review!
I would recommend Isaiah to anyone, for any occasion, but most of all your wedding! Isaiah was amazing at our wedding, he played some live music during the ceremony, and the cocktail hour. And he killed it as well when it came time to hit the dancefloor! He understands how to keep the crowd lively and had everyone dancing all night long. I cannot recommend Isaiah enough, he was outstanding.
Easily one of the BEST decisions we made was booking Isaiah! He serenaded our guests during cocktail hour & dinner with his guitar and we had sooo many guests raving about it all night long! He flawlessly transitioned into DJ for the reception & had our dance floor FULL all night long! He knew all the right songs to keep the energy high & read our group so well! Him blasting Mr. Brightside will be a core memory with my friends & family! Book Isaiah and I promise you won’t regret it!!
We hired Isaiah for our September 2022 wedding, and we cannot recommend him enough. As soon as we hired our planner, she recommended that we book Isaiah for our wedding day. We are SO glad that we did!
Isaiah played our ceremony, cocktail hour, and first dance, and DJed the reception. We had no preferences for cocktail hour, and we ended up being so happy with the acoustic songs he chose to play. We gave him fairly broad instructions for dinner music, and he nailed the vibe we were after. For our first dance, Isaiah was happy to learn and play the song for us, which was really special. It's clear that Isaiah has a ton of experience with weddings!
When it came to DJing, Isaiah absolutely crushed it. He created a mix of our "must play" songs with the vibes we told him we wanted. Our dance floor was packed with guests of all ages throughout the entire reception. After the wedding, we had countless family members and friends tell us how much they loved Isaiah.
In addition, Isaiah is so kind and easy to work with. We cannot recommend Isaiah enough!
Wow. We are SO thankful our planner had recommended Isaiah! He is truly an amazing musician. He played acoustic and sang while our guests were arriving and throughout our cocktail hour as well. He then transitioned to DJ our reception.
Isaiah brought such great energy to our reception, including the introduction of our wedding party. We gave him some of our favorite artists and a few "must-play" songs but otherwise he created a FIRE playlist which kept the dance floor electric all. night. long.
One of our favorite memories of the night was showing up to our after party and seeing Isaiah set up to play for another 3 hours which our parents had surprised us with! We have had multiple friends and family members tell us how great he was.
We are so grateful Isaiah was a part of our special day and will relive it through all the fun videos we have (a lot of them being on the dance floor or at the after party!) We cannot say enough good things about Isaiah and would 10/10 recommend to anyone looking for the perfect musician/DJ for their wedding! We will certainly continue to follow him and catch some of his local shows.
Isaiah was incredible. He went above and beyond for our welcome dinner. He was so easy to work with that it felt like we had a friend singing and playing the guitar at our event. He is also extremely talented and we were so impressed. Writing this makes me tear up thinking about how special he made that night for us.
From the moment I heard Isaiah perform at our friend's wedding, I knew we NEEDED to have him at ours. He is absolutely incredible. He had guests in tears singing the song I walked down the aisle to. He understood the cocktail hour vibe we were going for and had every guest asking us where we found him and wondering who he was. He kept the good vibes going through speeches and parent dances. Isiah DJed the ideal wedding party playlist that kept every single guest on the dance floor. He knows how to read a crowd and get everyone out on the dance floor. Hiring Isiah for our wedding was one of the BEST choices we made. He is absolutely amazing.
Isaiah was one of the best DJ and ceremony musicians we have ever worked with! He was communicative leading into the wedding and flexible with any changes that popped up during the event. He played all of our ceremony music on his acoustic guitar and killed at cocktail hour. We appreciated that he got our vibe and style immediately with our music tastes. He stuck to our do not play list as well, which was great. He engaged the crowd and got everyone on the dance floor. Throughout the night our guests told us they didn't take breaks from dancing because there were so many good songs being played back to back. He was the highlight of our guests night haha!
Isaiah was such a sweetheart and also played/sang our first dance song. It was such a memorable moment and magical night. Thank you so much Isaiah!
Isaiah provided wonderful music for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. Working with him was the best! He is professional, patient and extremely talented. You can't go wrong in working with Isaiah!
Isaiah made the whole process easy. We had some requests for him to play himself at the ceremony, reception and first dances and he did not disappoint. He is extremely talented, but also a genuine person who is fun, caring and easy to work with. From start to finish, he did the best job and we can't thank him enough for making our day so special.
Isaiah completely elevated our wedding day. He is so friendly and personable, yet professional. We had so many guests tell us how much they enjoyed the live music during the ceremony and cocktail hour, and having him sing our first dance song was one of the highlights of the day. He then kept the dance floor packed all night playing absolute bangers. If you are considering Isaiah for your wedding, I would highly recommend booking him.
If you are looking for a musician for your wedding, private party, or any event in general, look no further.
This past May we hired Isaiah for my college graduation party, which was held at an event barn in Dayton, ME. Leading up to the event, his proactive communication took all the pressure off of us. He put in the work to create a playlist for the event of all my favorite artists, songs, and genres. He was very punctual, arriving before the designated time to ensure he was all set up before he was scheduled to play.
He played to the crowd, and was never afraid to deviate from the playlist and play any song the crowd wanted to hear. He even took me completely out of my comfort zone and put a microphone in my hands for multiple songs where he sang and played alongside me. He did an excellent job at making the party about me and celebrating my accomplishments. He made sure to let the crowd know as well, haha. We are already searching for the next reason we can hire him again.
Isaiah is an extremely talented musician, that can play a very wide range of music. We honestly couldn’t have chosen a better musician for such a special day. If you are looking for a talented and professional individual for any special event, Isaiah is THE guy!
We booked Isaiah for our ceremony and cocktail hour. Not only was he professional in communication leading up to the wedding, he was super easy to work with! Isaiah is just an all around awesome dude.
He was able to put his own unique spin on the songs that we requested and absolutely knocked them out of the park. Everything was so smooth during the ceremony and cocktail hour was HOPPING. He made our wedding a blast from the second he started playing. Booking Isaiah was the best decision that we made!
Thanks again, Isaiah! We’ll see you at the Goat again soon!
Isaiah performed acoustic for the ceremony, cocktail hour and first dance and provided DJ services for our June wedding reception. We cannot say enough good things. Our guests raved over his live music, and his MC skills ensured our event flowed smoothly. Isaiah was a true professional, rolling with the conditions of the day — including performing on a rustic dock on a lake, then helping us to seamlessly shift our reception into an epic lawn dance party (when the indoor venue was a little toasty). He was a crucial part of making our day so special, and we feel lucky to have booked him!
Isaiah did our wedding 7/2022 and we could not say enough great things about him! He was responsive and professional prior to the event and gave great suggestions on song choices. He performed prior to the ceremony and during cocktail hour which guests loved and learned our first dance song and sang it beautifully! He did an awesome job as the DJ announcing the entrances, dances, cake cutting etc and the dance floor did not have a quiet minute once it opened. We got multiple comments from our guests saying how wonderful he was and we couldn’t agree more- would 1000% recommend him for your wedding!
Isaiah's is absolutely incredible. He is a dream to work with. We hired him for our intimate ceremony and cocktail hour and we were honestly sad to see him go at the end of the hour! He was even willing to learn a song that was important to me for my bridal processional and he nailed it, not a dry eye to be seen. It is truly amazing what one man can do with stellar vocals and a guitar. Book him, you won't be sorry.
Isaiah was absolutely INCREDIBLE! We feel so lucky to have stumbled upon him for our wedding day. He was flexible and accommodating when we changed our wedding venue and guest count. Everyone was raving about his live music for cocktail hour and his DJ skills for the reception was spot on! Not to mention, he brought such a positive energy to the day, he is so upbeat and kind! BOOK HIM! I promise you will not be disappointed.
Isaiah was amazing! He was so easy to work with. He listened to what we wanted and then took the lead with reading the room and playing songs that got our small crowd up and dancing! My husband wanted a band, and I wanted a DJ and Isaiah was the perfect choice. He sang/ played guitar for our ceremony, cocktail hour and our first dance (and then finished with the best remix of songs that really ended the night on a incredibly fun note) and then DJed for dancing. We cannot say enough great things about him and plan to go watch him perform when he plays near us!
Isaiah was the perfect addition to our wedding! From the start of working with him to song selection and day of, he was the best to work with. He went above and beyond to make sure that our day was special and our guests are still talking about him!
Isaiah played for our cocktail hour MC'd and DJ'd the wedding and dance party to follow. His energy and connection with all our guests was spot on. Would highly suggest him for any event !
We hired Isaiah for our elopement on the beach and I couldn't be happier about it. If I could hire him for every event, I would! Isaiah was very easy to work with, had outstanding suggestions and can go with the flow very easily. His singing makes me stop everything I am doing and just take it all in. I LOVE the rasp he can bring, and his range is wild. Not only is he vocally talented, his personality is one you will never forget. We enjoyed him so much, that we went the next night to see him play in Ogunquit. He is so fun. He can read the room very easily and is so interactive with children. If you are looking for a vocalist for your event- don't think twice- he is your man!
Isaiah is incredible! He is extremely responsive especially when we had to reschedule multiple times due to COVID. He is full of great energy and so extremely insightful to helping your day run smoothly. From singing at the ceremony and cocktail hour, to MC ing and DJing during the reception he can do it all. He played a great selection of songs during the reception and I've never seen so many people in my family dance! Our day was so amazing thanks to the help from Isaiah. You should 100% hire Isaiah for your wedding.
Isaiah was the perfect person for our intimate, Maine wedding. The combination of Isaiah singing and playing guitar and then DJing the reception was ideal. AND CAN WE TALK ABOUT HIS VOICE??? He beautifully sang songs that we chose, entertained the crowd pre-ceremony, and was the perfect soundtrack to cocktail hour. We simply cannot recommend him enough. He made us feel so comfortable and is the kind of person you meet once, but feel like you've known forever. 12/10 recommend!
Isaiah was such an incredible addition to our marriage celebration. After postponing our original large wedding due to the pandemic, he was so flexible and communicative with rescheduling and following through in a non stressful way. His voice is amazing and brought such a special energy to our ceremony and cocktail hour. Then he transitioned to our DJ for the reception and was a low key and excellent MC for the night! He really can do it all and we are so grateful to him for making our celebration so special!
Isaiah played guitar and DJ'd for our July wedding and we felt so lucky to have him there. We originally booked him for July 2020 and when we moved our wedding a year due to the pandemic he was responsive and easy to work with. On the day of the wedding he arrived early and had all music and audio covered. The wedding guests raved about his talents on guitar and singing and he curated a great DJ set based off the artists we like. Would highly recommend him for your wedding!!
Isaiah is one of a kind. Aside from his unbelievably incredible talent he is so kind and cool, calm and collected. He made sure to come over and chat with my husband and I and make sure we were all the same page and just knew what to do without being asked! He has great energy and has the best taste in music. My wedding would not have been complete without his services, would 10/10 recommend him if you want you wedding day to be extra special!
We were so lucky to snag Isaiah for our wedding. Not only is he incredibly talented but he was really the highlight of our wedding. Isaiah sang literally every song we had requested and was so so easy going when he switched to DJ’ing. Everybody at our wedding was comfortable requesting songs and he made the entire event incredibly fun as he was so able to read the crowd and react.
Isiaiah was so easy to work with and really made myself and my husband so comfortable in all of our interactions. The owner of our wedding venue literally gushed about how much she LOVED him and how he offered to help and was so easy to work with.
Isaiah was more than what we expect. His ability to play guitar and DJ during the event was beyond our expectations and secretly what we were looking for. During the whole planning stages of the wedding, he was very flexible and would accommodate us during the whole process. If he is available for your event, 15/10 must book him. You will not regret!
Hire This Man!
We were absolutely blown away by Isaiah's performance at our wedding. So many people came up to us to say how much they loved the band. He was able to play an amazing mix of genres (the acoustic cover of Pony by Ginuwine was nothing short of epic), and he really knows how to get a party going. Isaiah came to us highly recommended and he far surpassed our expectations. In addition to absolutely crushing it on our big day, Isaiah was amazing throughout the entire nightmare of COVID wedding planning. He was very responsive and considerate, and always focused on making sure we got what we needed. I cannot recommend him enough.
When I say that hiring Isaiah was the single best decision we made for our wedding, I am not exaggerating and we had an INCREDIBLE team of vendors. Isaiah is uniquely talented and the atmosphere his acoustic music created for our ceremony and cocktail hour elevated the experience for us and our guests in a way that only live music can. His acoustic performance of our first dance and our private last dance were the highlights of our night. We had a medical emergency in the middle of the maid of honor's speech and Isaiah didn't miss a beat, re-starting music while we handled the situation, which helped to lighten the mood.
After dinner, he transitioned to DJ the reception and every single song was a hit. He brought the party and our guests couldn't stop talking about him. I would hire him a million times over and I'm working on convincing all of my friends to hire him so I can hear him play again and again and again. We can't thank you enough, Isaiah!
We are so grateful that we hired Isaiah! He really is a master of all when it comes to wedding music. He is extremely flexible, and just all around the best. For our processional we did a mix of original tracks and acoustic music, and Isaiah handled the flow so perfectly, and his vocals are AMAZING. From there Isaiah was the best MC and DJ we could possibly ask for and we had the most epic dance party of all time. Me and my wife had a lot of unique requests for Isaiah, and one of the things we were most impressed with was his attention to detail and organization, Isaiah never missed a beat and it was literally the most perfect wedding ever! HIRE ISAIAH NOW! You will be so grateful you did!
Words cannot express how grateful that my groom and I were to have Isaiah Bennett play at our wedding. We were supposed to have a September 2020 wedding, but we changed the date to May 2021 & Isaiah was able to move the date with ease.
In May, when I walked into our venue & he was playing acoustic music, instant sobbing tears of happiness. From playing acoustic music during the cocktail hour and our first dance, to him being our DJ for the night, he literally made our night unbelievable. He played our favorite songs during the cocktail hour and he knew what worked for our crowd during the dancing hours. He learned to play a Rancid(punk band) song for my husband as a surprise and that to me was icing on the cake. He is beyond easy to talk to & collaborate with on making our night happen so easily and flawlessly. Truly, I would hire him a million more times if I could. Thank you for being you & doing what you do!
My husband and I hired Isaiah for our wedding singer/DJ because he was recommended to us by my wedding planner. We hired him before COVID and ended up having three different wedding dates. Isaiah was extremely accommodating while we all sorted through the pandemic. We finally had our wedding on 4/17/21! Isaiah sang and played the guitar for cocktail hour, for our first dance and for other various songs throughout the night. To have someone that DJ’s the wedding but is also an extremely talented musician is amazing!! Isaiah is so down to earth and makes working with him a breeze. After (and even during) the wedding many guests wanted his contact information so they could also hire him for their future events. I would highly recommend him to any bride!
Many people know that the band or the DJ at a wedding is such an important role. As a screenwriter and filmmaker, though music means something a little bit different to me. I always think of it as the soundtrack to the moments we remember most - from road trip anthems to the music you walk down the aisle to. If you want someone who will work with you not only to curate the perfect soundtrack for your wedding, but to offer his beautiful voice and soul to your big day, I could not recommend Isaiah Bennet more. He performed all of the songs for our ceremony, wowed our guests with his voice at our cocktail hour and for our first dance, and had people out on the dance floor laughing and grooving when he finally put on his DJ hat for the night. I lit up when I could hear him begin the song my dad walked me down the aisle to. I will be forever grateful that he set the tone - quite literally - for our wedding day. Award for best music? Isaiah Bennet.
Isaiah was recommended to us from our wedding planners at Pinch Me Planning. We wanted some live music but also wanted someone to be able to play some dancing music - and Isaiah was perfect for that. He sang acoustics for our ceremony and our happy hour, did the MC, then turned into quite the DJ at the reception. He was like the "all-in-one" package!
100000x recommend him.
We found Isaiah when he was playing at a nearby bar. When we found out he did weddings, we knew we had to make it happen. Throughout the planning process, Isaiah was incredibly responsive and worked with us to make sure we would have the perfect day. I couldn't have asked for more when it came down to the day-of. He played and sang for our ceremony, cocktail hour and our first dances, and then changed over to DJ-ing once the party started. He adapted each moment to exactly what the crowd wanted and reacted to. He learned new songs to sing just for us, and it felt so incredibly customized and personal. If you are considering hiring Isaiah for any event, stop thinking & just do.
I cannot say enough good things about Isaiah. Do not look any further and hire Isaiah! Not only does Isaiah have a great voice, he is very accommodating and willing to learn any song you wish. He is super friendly and actually cares about your day being perfect. The day of our wedding our JOP was an hour late. All of a sudden without even asking, Isaiah started singing and kept the guests entertained for the entire hour! We received so many compliments from our guests - it truly saved the day. Then he continued to sing our ceremony, live acoustic cocktail hour and DJ our wedding (p.s. he is an excelled DJ as well). We highly recommend Isaiah!
The best! Isaiah is beyond talented but so much fun to work with. He creates a fun vibe for guests and wedding vendors.
It has been three weeks since our beautiful wedding weekend in Maine, and we keep reliving all the fun we had during our first dance, and later that evening on the dancefloor! After getting to know Isaiah of the course of 19 months, it felt like having a friend celebrating with us! He taught himself our First Dance song and played it live for us, it was incredible and a moment we will always remember. He did a fabulous job MCing the night and knew how to get a small group of 30 people off their feet and enjoying the night! We will miss him, but can't wait to see him perform again.
hands down the BEST MUSIC and the BEST MUSICIAN EVER! Isaiah Bennett is so insanely talented both vocally with his acoustic performances but all behind the DJ booth. He really took the time to get to know my husband and I and make sure he knew exactly the kind of music we liked and the vibe we were going for. His cocktail hour music selection is absolutely the best I have ever had the pleasure of enjoying and every song is a crowd pleaser. Also his DJ slection is sure to bring the whole wedding to the dance floor! He hits all the classics and also makes sure to throw in the music you love and request. The best part about the music on our special day was having Isaiah acoustically sing our first dance song. This brought such joy and really meant the world to us! Isaiah is such a genuine, kind-hearted soul with such talent and artistry. He has become a true friend and I feel honored to know and look forward to many nights stopping by local bars and venues to hear him sing!
Isaiah, what a guy! Super talented, easy to work with and an enjoyable guy to be around. I had the pleasure to work with him at a wedding and I was excited to see him perform and DJ. He showed up on time, was helpful, and was kind to every guest, vendor, and person at the event. Hire him, you won't be disappointed!
