Dear Antoinette and Angie,
I hope this email finds you well and you gearing up for your many holiday season events.
I wanted to again say how much I enjoyed working with you and your team again on the Leslie Rojas Wedding Rehearsal Dinner on August 16th of this year! At this wedding rehearsal, we played as a a duet (myself on violin/mandolin/vocals, and my bass player) from our group, Ecco La Vita! Angie suggested I reach out to you to become a possible music vendor on your preferred vendor list.
I wanted you to know I have taken the liberty of approving your events company for my preferred vendors list, and you are on our on-line listing shared with every client we work with! I was so impressed by your work, we vetted you for our on-line list:
Preferred Vendors

I am also reaching out to see what your process is to become a preferred vendor with your events company. When I work with such fine professionals as you and your staff, I want to see if it is possible to work together again in the same capacity.
Most event companies have a basic process and a certain of time of year to develop their preferred vendor’s list. Please do let me know more about your process with the selecting of vendors. I look forward to hearing more about this.

Benny Be Music Productions offers a fantastic variety of both live music options and great DJ/MC services, and/or a combing of both! We are a boutique business, customizing everything we do to the needs of the client. We cater mostly to 300 guests or less with most of our events. We do have the infrastructure to cater to larger groups, as well.
Some of our most popular services (sorry, the links didn’t copy over to your contact form):
Benny BackTrack
Benny BackTrack service. Has become a big sell with clients. It combines both the great live vocal/instrumental music I do with my amazing DJ/MC services. I have great dance-floor lighting options and up-lighting, as well.
I play and sing many jazz standards, classical music, holiday favorites, folk, musicals, dance music, classic rock, rip-roaring fiddle tunes like the “Devil Went Down to Georgia,” and a high-octave Jewish Hora/Chair Dance, and much more!
