Why couples choose it
Built for a reception-only day
Most bookings here are reception-only, so I plan the move from an off-site ceremony and leave time for the gear.

Where I set up
Where I set up
The booth is in the second-floor room, in front of the bar. The sound is full but not harsh in the stone room: up close and controlled.
Mill Street Brew Pub
Lounge-level dinner, then a full dance set once tables clear
Dinner, speeches and dancing all happen in the second-floor room. I keep dinner sound at lounge level, then open the floor after tables clear, without moving the rig.
For a mixed-age crowd I play tech house, afro house, Latin and Top 40.
Stone-room questions: layout, off-site vows, lighting
- Room
- Confirm your layout's capacity and table clearance with the venue.
- Plans
- I need your music preferences, announcement style, and speech and first-dance timing. If the ceremony is off site, I also need its microphone moments and weather backup.
- Lighting and travel
- Decide whether the installed lighting suits your plans, and confirm guest arrivals, departures and shuttle timing.
Mill Street's stone room, capacity and off-site ceremonies
Where is Mill Street, and what kind of building is it?
Mill Street Brew Pub is at 555 Wellington Street, LeBreton Flats, near Chaudiere Falls on the Ottawa River. The restored 1842 limestone Thompson-Perkins Mill is Ottawa's oldest surviving stone mill; the brew pub and event space opened January 2012.
How many guests does the Mill Street event space hold?
Upstairs: 120 seated in the river-view dining room; about 170 cocktail-style with its adjacent private bar. Confirm your layout's capacity; I scale sound and lighting to headcount.
Can I have my ceremony at Mill Street too?
I haven't confirmed dedicated on-site ceremony space. Most bookings are reception-only; I plan transport from an off-site ceremony within one booking.
Does the dining room turn into the dance floor?
Yes. Dinner, speeches and dancing share the second-floor room. I keep dinner sound at lounge level, then open dancing after tables clear without moving the rig.
Do you DJ weddings at Mill Street in Ottawa?
Yes. I'm an open-format DJ and MC. Agreed coverage can include cocktail hour, reception and an off-site ceremony.
Can you cover both ceremony and reception at Mill Street?
Yes, within one continuous booking. With no confirmed on-site ceremony space, I schedule the move from venues such as the Trillium Room at the Lord Elgin.
How much does a wedding DJ at Mill Street cost?
I quote after a quick call, once I know your hours, the room and how much of the day I cover. The cost guide explains how I quote. Your 50% deposit holds the date.
Can we do a ceremony elsewhere and the reception at Mill Street?
Yes. This is the usual arrangement at Mill Street; I allow time for the gear move so the day isn't rushed.
