DJ Mandy Mac 

5.0

  • DJ
  • Serves Independence, OR

Based in Eugene, OR, DJ Mandy Mac serves couples in Eugene, Bend, Portland and beyond. Mandy is passionate about mixing music and creating unforgettable moments on your big day! The energy on the dance floor is of utmost importance to her ensuring that there's something for everyone to enjoy! She appreciates collaborating with couples', getting to know them and helping them select music that truly reflects their love story. This DJ strives to provide every couple with exceptional service and an event that they’ll remember long after they say “I do.”

MandyMac was the absolute best choice for a DJ! She was so detailed in her questionnaire she asked prior that I had no doubt she would be able to play every thing I wanted. She had speakers and microphones set outside for the ceremony and played all of the classical music I wanted. It felt like a scene straight out of Bridgerton. For the reception she truly played the best music, even the older people at our wedding were on the dance floor busting out some moves! My favorite moment was our private last dance, I had assumed the DJ would still be in the room, but to my surprise she turned our song on, and quietly exited the room. My husband and I had a truly private last dance, just the two of us, it was my favorite moment of the entire night. Thank you to MandyMac for all of her hard work and I would recommend her to anyone!

Trevino Entertainment, LLC 

5.0

  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,600
  • Serves Independence, OR

I founded Trevino Entertainment, LLC in 2007 after graduating from high school in Salem, Oregon. I went to a small school, and I DJ'd many of my school's dances and events while a student. I love music - all types, genres, and eras - so it was something that came naturally. My focus has always been on the music. If you're looking for a personality to take over your event, awkwardly engage your guests, or lead cheesy games, then you should find another DJ. If you are looking for someone who is organized, professional, listens to your direction, makes clear and professional announcements, and lets the music do the work, then I'm your DJ.

So much of the wedding experience is sound - microphones, volume, background music, first dance, and of course, the lit playlist. Trevino Entertainment has experience with all of this and their service of your big day is done well. We were so glad Michael and his team were there for us in planning, adjusting and executing our vision!

The photographer, videographer, and photo booth was absolutely perfect and our guests had a blast! However, even after going through the work of submitting a Spotify play list and adding do not play songs or DJ played the wrong version of our first dance song (I checked and we had the correct version listed on our playlist we sent over), he also played songs from our do not play list to the point I, the bride, came over to ask if he had the wrong list. He admitted he was using songs from the do not play list as he was not paying attention. I would also like to note, though our wedding was more casual, our DJ was dressed in a sloppy manner. His shirt was half untucked from his pants, there were stains on his shirt and pants. Besides a few hiccups, direct Entertainment was wonderful to work with!

True professionals, PARADOX is well known for bringing together people of all ages through their variety of music and ability to pack dance floors at special celebrations. Their impressive work has received recognition and the team was voted Portland's Best DJ by Oregon Bride Magazine and Premiere Bride Magazine, with individual team members nominated as Best DJ by Willamette Week every year.

Zacch from Paradox Productions was the the best choice we could have made for our wedding entertainment. His expertise in event conduction and his ability to smile in the face of chaos kept everything organized and on track, even when the weather threw us a curveball. He helped redirect guests seamlessly when we had to adjust the schedule due to high winds and rain. His musical selections were spot on, providing great background music during dinner and keeping guests engaged on the dancefloor with an intuitive mix of songs we requested along with well-timed classics. Zacch went above and beyond by playing music late into the night after being informed by the camp hosts that he would need to spend the night at the venue due to an atmospheric river and downed trees blocking the road. He kept the party going as late as he could and afterwards spent time chatting fireside as the night wound down. Zacch has a charisma that keeps even your most ornery guests engaged and well behaved. He’s an excellent person on and off the turntable.

Awarded Best of Zola
I highly recommend PDX DJs. The owner Sean is attentive and respectful. I had every question answered when I first signed on to work with PDX DJs. I also loved their transparent pricing - it's pretty rare that a company touts transparent pricing, and actually means it. Especially in the wedding industry, it was such a breath of fresh air to just have a vendor be straightforward, honest, and not try to upsell us or misrepresent pricing/fees etc. Steven was our DJ and he listened to everything we wanted & delivered. I had a very specific timeline including emcee cues & music for the pre ceremony & ceremony, and I was a little nervous that with only one meeting beforehand there was room for error. But these guys are professionals, asked questions about anything that was unclear in our meeting, and executed everything perfectly. We provided our must plays for the reception, and Steven texted me before hand asking if he could swap one of our picks with a remix version of the same song. I'd never heard of the remix but said go ahead! Now that song stands out to me as one of my favorite moments from the reception and is always tied to our wedding day. It was a really sweet personal touch. Thanks for being a part of our wedding, PDX DJs! Pictured: the vibes cultivated on the dance floor

NW Mobile DJ Service was exactly what we wanted, and they did a great job. Our venue required three different speaker set-ups for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception, and our DJ, Richard, was very adaptable in doing so. I created playlists for each section of the night, and Richard was able to feel the vibe of the group and play them to what he thought the group wanted. Richard was respectful, kind, accountable, and was able to play my very specific walking-down-the-aisle song. Would recommend!

One thing that stood out to me was how much thought he puts into the actual sound. Not just volume, but how the music hits the room, how the bass moves through the floor, how it all feels when you're actually dancing. It made all the difference! He kept the party going all night, and the dance floor stayed full from start to finish. You could see how much fun everyone was having. He read the crowd so naturally and kept the momentum going. Just all-around great vibes, super professional, fun, and genuinely invested in making sure everyone has a good time.

I am a wedding photographer who has shot and worked hundreds of weddings, and I'm not being biased when I say, Craig with Silicon Forest Entertainment is the best DJ company I've ever worked with. He is extremely professional and incredibly confident on the microphone, which is a talent not everyone has. He knows music and can read a crowd so well. As another vendor, working with him is so smooth and he's incredibly considerate of the timing of each event with each vendor in mind. I always know that if I'm working a wedding with Craig, not only will the clients be thrilled, the guests will rave about the good time, and all of us vendors will work flawlessly as a team.
