"Ric has worked for The Best Men, our alternative wedding DJ company for eight years and has been fantastic since day one, willing to take on any job, never fazed by the different genres that couples request of him and always super professional yet friendly with both the couples and the other DJs. He has an enthusiasm and a love for DJing music which is contagious, I’ve spent many a phone call with Ric, discussing DJing and how we can constantly improve the business. Whenever I allocate a job to Ric, I am completely relaxed and I know the couple are in safe hands"
