I grew up as a pastor's kid doing sound and music for my dad's church. Weddings, funerals and the like. I created the All Requests Live team to provide great services at an affordable rate. We would be honored to make your day great!

Awarded Best of Zola
All Requests Live DJ is easily one of the best DJ companies to book with in Oregon. Coordinating with Dave was easy - he was understanding and accommodating when I couldn't make it to our first scheduled meeting, and when we were finally able to chat it was obvious he was an expert. He recommended songs, gave advice and input on specific song choices, and never once made me feel pressured to add more lighting, speakers, etc. You can tell this company is focused on making their clients happy rather than just making a buck. Austin was our DJ and he was AMAZING! He interacted with our guests, played the perfect songs, and was a fantastic MC. I was very impressed with his professionalism and willingness to engage with everyone - it was nice seeing a vendor not just simply attending, but actually laughing and having fun! Thank you so much for making our night so special. HIGHLY recommended!!!

Rhiannon and her team are BEYOND amazing. At first I hired her because we needed a DJ and having a woman DJ sounded like she’d know exactly what I wanted to hear and how to feel out a room. But then, I needed a coordinator. I was already overwhelmed with a wedding when you have 2 sets of divorced parents and BOOM Rhiannon could do that! She was so consistent and made me think of things I honestly didn’t realize I should think of. Anytime I had a question or any anxiety she would take it away because she knew what she was going. Last minute our officiant couldn’t come to the wedding, and guess who was ALSO an officiant?! Honestly, I’m so grateful for her whole team. I wasn’t anxious on my wedding day, I showed up, married the man I love, and danced the night away. Dont second guess this team, you will not regret them!!

We used Pure Vision Entertainment for our wedding on 8/2/26, and they were recommended to us by our wedding coordinator and from the beginning they were amazing to work with. From the start talking with Jared he got to learn more about us and what we were looking for in a DJ for our wedding, and he was able to help us narrow down some options that would be a good fit for us from the list of DJs they have available. Ultimately we chose to go with Kyle (DJ EPS) and he was so kind and was the best to work with! He was a great fit for us and kept the energy going through the night and played all the best songs. We got a lot of compliments on the music and how it kept the dance floor moving all night. They use an app/website to help you layout your music choices which can be a convenient way to organize the music you want, while also giving you a good way to lay it all out and see how you would want to arrange it and if you want to make any changes It is really easy. It made the music selection process that much easier, and was a flexible way to layout all of our music choices for the day and night of our wedding. We highly recommend Pure Vision Entertainment, and a big shout out to Jared and Kyle! Wanted to add more photos but only have a few back so far from the wedding night!

I love my job. For me, it’s kind of two-fold. One amazing part of the job is knowing that you are part of a couple’s most memorable day of their life—and assuming it goes well, they will remember you for it for the rest of their life. The other part is that I get to run a business and listen to music—two of my deepest passions. So running a DJ company mashes it all together in one great package.

Awarded Best of Zola
Suzanne at Stumptown DJs was an absolute dream to have DJ our wedding. The entire event went so smoothly because of her professionalism, flexibility, and overall attitude. From the ceremony to the grand exit, our songs were played exactly how I envisioned them. Plus, I will never forget that there was a moment during the evening that I wanted to cut short unexpectedly; I glanced at Suzanne, discretely asked for the song to end, and she immediately, and unnoticeably, faded the song out - I was so thankful to her. If we ever need DJ services in the future, we will 100% go with Suzanne again. -B&B

Portland. Bend. Eugene. Seattle. 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.

DJ NOBLE

Portland, OR
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,500

I'm passionate about DJing because music has the power to create unforgettable moments—and there's nothing more rewarding than being the person who helps make those moments happen. At weddings, every song carries emotion, from the couple’s first dance to the last song of the night. I love reading the crowd, building the energy, and blending tracks to keep the celebration flowing seamlessly. It's more than just playing music—it's about creating a soundtrack that people will remember for the rest of their lives. That’s what drives me every time I step behind the booth.

From our first call with DJ NOBLE, we were impressed by his detailed, transparent, and thorough communication style. He took the time to really understand the vibe we wanted to create for our wedding and were enthusiastic and natural in how they brought that vision to life. Throughout the night, his great music selection and ability to keep the crowd energized and engaged was exactly what we had hoped for. He made a real effort to talk to our guests and ensure everyone was having a wonderful time. We couldn't be happier with the role DJ NOBLE played in making our special day so memorable.

PRGN.City LLC is a small, family-owned business (husband and wife). We pride ourselves on outstanding service (with zero compromise). This business came about from a little over a decade of hard work by Theodore in the Theatre and A/V event industries. Years of exceptional team building and execution of large-scale events, as well as a longstanding background of being musically educated (brass, 12 years), performing, and teaching music, led us to finally formalize the business in this format. What started as a way to aid individuals with throwing events (with less than abundant resources) has slowly turned into recurrent events of all kinds.

Theodore was great to work with! Vibes were high all night, good music, fun lighting and a sweet bubble machine!

We booked DJ Good Things for our wedding and couldn't be happier with our choice. From start to finish, they kept us in the loop with consistent emails and checked in regularly to make sure we were comfortable with all the details. Their ability to roll with last-minute requests was incredible — my mom didn't decide on a mother-son dance until the day of, and they mixed it on the fly without missing a beat. What really impressed us was how they balanced being present and responsive without interrupting our big day. Their mixes were outstanding and they went above and beyond to deliver everything we asked for.

My grandmother hasn’t been on a dancefloor in 30 years and because of the Throwbacks, I was able to dance with her. The band is very professional and very clear when communicating. They were also very flexible and were able to setup outdoors with limited venue resources. They played a more relaxed set for our cocktail hour and a groovier set for the main dancefloor after dinner. We’re so glad we hired them and would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for a great wedding band. They rock!!

The harpist and violinist were absolutely incredible — truly one of the most magical parts of our entire wedding day. My husband and I were completely in awe, and our guests couldn’t stop talking about how beautiful and cinematic the music was. It felt like something straight out of a movie, especially with the stunning ambiance of our ceremony location. From the very beginning, the process of choosing music through the company’s website was seamless. There were so many amazing song options to pick from, and we were so happy with our final selections. Hearing them come to life — especially on violin and harp — was beyond words. The musicians played so eloquently and gracefully, and their talent was unmatched. The music added a romantic, emotional, and elegant touch that elevated everything to a whole new level. Communication with the company was excellent. They were quick to respond, always friendly and accommodating, and remained professional and patient — even when unexpected weather challenges came up on the day of the wedding. They were flexible, understanding, and worked with us to make sure everything went smoothly. The quality of the performance was truly a 10 out of 10. Guests were completely blown away, and many told us how unforgettable and moving the ceremony music was. The transitions between songs were smooth and perfectly timed. I would 100% recommend this company to any couple looking to add something special to their ceremony. They are incredibly talented, professional, punctual, and just a dream to work with. We’re so grateful to have had them be part of our big day — they helped make it feel absolutely magical.

My husband and I used Direct Entertainment for our DJ and videographer for our wedding and we could not be more pleased!! The team was professional, great at communication, very kind and professional, and they helped make our day absolutely perfect! Jeff, our DJ kept the dance floor alive ALL NIGHT!! When the music had to stop at the end of the night, the dance floor was still completely full and no one wanted it to end. He did a great job announcing the events of the night, made sure that our ceremony music was perfect, and he stuck to our wedding playlist with the exception for a couple guest requests (which we were happy to allow). We were so happy and thankful to have Jeff there! Sie, our videographer also did a wonderful job! We have not yet received our video as our wedding was less than 2 weeks ago, but I already know it is going to be amazing. He was so great with communication, was prompt with his timing, and he even set up a second camera for guests to break away and give us well wishes for our marriage, which I'm so excited to watch back. He was very professional and wonderful to work with. We decided to add videography at the last minute because we thought we might regret not having it, and I am SO happy we asked Jim at Direct Entertainment if they had someone available for our day just a month before, and they did!! Jim, the coordinator at Direct Entertainment frequently checked in with us, asked us questions about ourselves, and genuinely made us feel like he cared about us and our special day. He was great to work with leading up to being assigned our designated DJ and videographer, and even after, he checked in to make sure we were happy and that all of the planning was going well. Overall, we would 1000% recommend Direct Entertainment for any wedding entertainment needs!

Our experience working with Jamie and Ceremony DJs can be best summed up by the fact that multiple people told us after the ceremony they wanted to book him for their wedding and at least one got his business card! I can't imagine a better DJ, truly. When we first met with Jamie, he said he could make people dance to anything and would keep people on the dance floor all night, and he WAS NOT LYING. The whole night, the dance floor was PACKED even though it was rainy/muddy/cold/wet. Jamie took us on a journey that covered all of the bases of the music we love to hear and dance to, seamlessly and magically (?) integrating genres with the best mixes, it was pure wizardry and really captured who we were. We as a couple care a lot about music and wanted music that represented who we were and what we like to listen to, and he did not disappoint! So much prep work went into this, he took patience and time to try to understand our tastes and vibe, and it was so cool to have the wedding played on vinyl- basically, Jamie just "got it" from start to finish and we had the best time! Our wedding also got delayed due to rain and a road closure and he was such a good sport, staying late to keep us all dancing for a whole other hour- so fun! Also, when our ceremony musician was stuck in traffic due to the storm, he was so prepared and had our prelude/processional music downloaded so we could still walk down the aisle to the songs we'd chosen. Overall, such a cool, kind, funny guy who was professional and prepared in every way and honest just takes time to meet and know his clients, and clearly just loves to share his love of music. I would book him for everything if I could. BOOK THIS DJ. You will NOT regret it!

Golden Bells was PHENOMENAL! Marlon and the entire band absolutely crushed it at our wedding. Not only is every musician insanely talented, but Marlon curated the night perfectly -- easing in with oldies to get our parents and older guests moving, then seamlessly shifting into the EDM, pop, and Bay Area rap we love. It felt like the soundtrack of us, and everyone could feel that. One of the highlights of the night was when the band came onto the dance floor with drums, trumpet, guitar, and trombone -- and even let us drum in a bit. The energy was unbelievable. And Hava Nagila with a full live band? Unreal. The band/DJ fusion setup made the entire reception feel elevated, unique, and unforgettable. They're truly a one-of-one. We got so many compliments throughout the night and later about the music, the vibe, and the experience the band created. Everything ran smoothly -- from emceeing to sound to transitions -- and you can tell the quality of their equipment and professionalism is top-notch. We can't thank Marlon and the Golden Bells team enough for making our wedding feel like a celebration we'll never forget. Highly, highly recommend them!
