Wedding & Event DJ Experience at allan house (Austin)

Modern, non-cheesy wedding entertainment for one of downtown Austin’s most charming historic venues, from courtyard ceremony to last dance.

CHECK AVAILABILITY

A Wedding Atmosphere That Matches the Venue

The Allan House is an 1883 Victorian mansion just three blocks from the Texas State Capitol, with a brick courtyard shaded by century-old oak trees, terraced limestone steps, and wraparound verandas. It’s historic and romantic without feeling stuffy, and the entertainment should feel the same way. We design the music, sound, and flow of the night to fit the space: relaxed during cocktail hour on the porches, clear and polished for toasts, and a full dance floor under the oaks once the party starts.
