Sean has DJ'd a wedding here

I've DJed at Stonefields Estate near Carleton Place. The big back patio takes cocktail hour and The Loft takes dinner and dancing.

Best for couples who want a big patio for cocktails and a barn for the party

The room

One wedding a day on 120 acres

  • A heritage estate in Beckwith, west of Ottawa, with one wedding a day.
  • Cocktails on the covered Verandah, then dinner in The Loft, a restored barn.
  • Ceremony on the farmhouse lawn, or in the indoor Ceremony House.
The day in order

Lawn or Ceremony House, Verandah, then The Loft

Load in

I plan extra load-in time for the long gravel walk to The Loft.

Dance floor

I pull the low end back when The Loft's barn doors close.

Why couples choose it

Nothing on the property is shared

One wedding a day means no competing event timeline. I am set up and sound-checked before guests arrive, and I confirm your ceremony spot before I plan sound and power.

Spaces

Spaces at Stonefields

  • The Loft

    A restored barn with exposed beams and a 35-foot cathedral ceiling. Dinner and dancing.

  • Verandah

    Covered, under Edison lighting. Cocktails.

  • Ceremony House

    The indoor ceremony, and the weather backup for the lawn.

  • Farmhouse lawn

    The outdoor ceremony.

Where I set up

Where I set up

I aim the sound at the floor in The Loft. The vendor path to The Loft can be a long gravel walk.

More about Stonefields

Stonefields Estate

Verandah cocktails while The Loft is set for dinner

The big back patio holds guests while The Loft is prepared for dinner and dancing, and I keep patio music running. I agree coverage across the estate in writing.

Getting ready happens in the roughly 200-year-old farmhouse. Because the estate uses several buildings, I confirm your ceremony location before I plan sound and power.

Two ceremony options, two reception spaces

Ceremony spaces
The indoor Ceremony House is the weather backup for the farmhouse lawn.
Reception spaces
The covered Verandah has Edison lighting; The Loft has exposed beams.
The Loft after dark
I reduce the low end when the barn doors close at night. That limits the muddiness stone and height can cause, while keeping kick-drum warmth in the back corners.

Your Stonefields coordinator should confirm these

Music and MC
I confirm your music choices, announcement style and timing when dinner or speeches shift.
Lighting and transport
Confirm the installed dance-floor look, desired room mood and shuttle timing.
Transitions
I plan first-dance and speech locations, ceremony mic moments and the move toward dancing.
Access
Confirm the vendor path to The Loft: it can be a long gravel walk.
Schedule
Stonefields books one wedding a day, so nothing on the property is shared. Confirm how that affects your start times and final schedule with your coordinator.

The Loft, the Verandah and the two ceremony spots

What's The Loft like to DJ in?

I aim sound at the floor in The Loft, a restored barn with exposed beams and a 35-foot cathedral ceiling. Tall rooms carry sound differently; I keep dinner at lounge level.

Do you handle both ceremony options, indoor and outdoor?

Yes. I confirm farmhouse lawn or indoor Ceremony House before the day and bring a dedicated wireless system for either option.

How does cocktail hour work on the Verandah?

I keep music low-key on the covered Verandah under Edison lighting before guests enter The Loft for dinner.

Does the one-wedding-a-day setup change how you prepare?

One wedding a day means no competing event timeline. I'm set up and sound-checked before guests arrive.

Do you DJ weddings at Stonefields Estate?

Yes. I plan open-format DJ and MC coverage from ceremony to last dance. Your written quote confirms ceremony, cocktails and reception coverage, MC duties and hours.

Have you played Stonefields Estate before?

Yes, I've played Stonefields. I plan outdoor ceremony and indoor or covered reception sound, sized for the larger rural room.

How much does a wedding DJ at Stonefields cost?

I quote after a quick call, once I know your hours, the room and how much of the day I cover. The wedding DJ cost page explains how I quote. Your 50% deposit holds the date.

Will you tailor the night to our run-of-show?

I use your exact run-of-show from our planning call to build music and MC cues around dinner, speeches and room transitions.
