I was a guest at a wedding where PVE & Manny was the DJ, and it was hands down one of the best wedding receptions I’ve ever been to. OMG we did not want to get off the dance floor it was a literal club vibe all night. The music brought everyone together, the dance floor stayed full, and the night felt so much like our friends Nathan & Liz. The Venue was beautiful and just overall the wedding was amazing. You want to talk about a party, it definitely was one.

DJ Dom was amazing and very communicative! He called us multiple times before the wedding to make sure everything was how we liked it. There were some hiccups with our venue and timeline, but he helped redirect to allow us to have a perfect night. He even included extra lighting for free! He also referred us to a content creator, and she was great.

Stumptown Djs 
Rating: 5.0 (45 reviews)
Portland, OR
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,500

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.

Hiring DJ Benni as our wedding DJ was the best decision we made for our wedding! Benni was a game-changer for our special day! From the first consultation to monthly check-in’s, it was clear we were in expert hands. We shared our vision and DJ Benni shared his thoughts based on the weddings he has DJ for, and he saved us on making some big mistakes as we are new to this. His professionalism and attention to detail were impeccable. Benni let us customize as much or as little as we wanted and would constantly encourage us to do what we want and not cave to “wedding norms”. We ended up having a classical version of Lord of the Rings as the processional and Top Gun Theme song as the recessional, our dog was our flower girl, and DJ Benni rocked every step of the way! We had a tool to help us build out the timeline/flow of our wedding from start to finish. This allowed our DJ to know exactly what to do, and when. And in the case of an emergency if our DJ couldn’t make it, a sub could step in and execute. Which allowed me (bride) and the groom to enjoy the evening and not think about logistics. DJ Benni was also very flexible and easily adjusted on the fly for a few things too. The dance floor was always full, and DJ Benni played banger after banger! He asked us to create and share a playlist with songs we wanted played, the more the merrier, and to note our top ten “must play” songs. From there, he was able to understand the vibe we wanted, and he found songs that we didn’t think of that were major hits! My shy 10-year-old cousin was dancing and having the time of his life, and DJ Benni gave him his contact info and told him to call if he ever wanted to DJ. My cousin was over the moon and had the time of his life. DJ Benni also skillfully read the room, adjusting the music to keep the energy high throughout the night. The sound quality was top-notch, and the equipment setup was sleek and unobtrusive. They also provided excellent MC services, making smooth transitions between ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, speeches, and dancing. His enthusiasm and charisma added an extra layer of excitement, making our wedding reception unforgettable. We received numerous compliments from our guests about the fantastic music and vibrant atmosphere. If you want a memorable wedding celebration, hiring DJ Benni is a must!

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 
Rating: 5.0 (7 reviews)
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.

DJ NOBLE has always been an excellent choice for our annual corporate holiday party. His communication was always prompt and helpful as we planned the music and timeline for our event. On the day of the event, he truly delivered - his expert DJ skills and knowledge of how to get a crowd dancing were on full display. DJ NOBLE took the time to get to know our venue and vibe, and it showed in the energy he brought to the dance floor. I've been working with him for over 6 years to DJ our corporate holiday party, and he never disappoints. We are so grateful to have found such a talented and professional DJ to always make our holiday parties unforgettable.

I take pride in creating a detailed and relaxed experience for clients, while offering exceptional value. Working with couples is a team experience. You can provide down to the minute details, let me handle everything, or anywhere in between.

We are so glad we picked Guy to be our DJ. He was very flexible and easy to communicate and plan with. He was able to play our personal playlists while gauging the vibes throughout the night. He did a great job hyping our wedding guests for us when he made his announcements for us. Also, the photobooth was very fun and easy to use; there were a lot of funny props and our wedding guests enjoyed it a lot! Many thanks to him!

Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
Portland, OR
  • DJ
  • Starts at $800

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.

PRGN.City LLC was an excellent choice for our wedding band and DJ services. From the first time we reached out, their communication was quick, easy, and reliable. The quality of their work was exactly as advertised - they were a breeze to work with and really delivered an amazing experience for us and our guests on the dance floor all night long. We couldn't be happier with how everything turned out and highly recommends PRGN.City LLC to any couple looking for top-notch wedding entertainment.

First off, A big cogratulations on your engagement! There are so many vendors that make up a modern wedding. So may people forget that the DJ is positioned to set the tone of the reception. With a reputation for awesome planning help, superb digital sound that rivals all others our team of DJs love providing FUN events. Our DJs answer your emails usually within moments of it being sent. Planning is so important so we have as many meetings as needed (at no charge) to make sure the reception is musically perfect.

Fun Squad DJs were an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. Their communication was great - when we forgot to update them on a time change, they fixed the problem for us effortlessly. The quality of their work and value was wonderful, and we truly appreciated all they did. It was a 100 degrees on our wedding day, so the lights we had paid for would have been useless, but Lane was sweet enough to set up an amazing audio guestbook instead that was a huge hit. Lane was amazing and picked up on us being funky people and met the vibe with the music immediately. We would highly recommend requesting him for your wedding!

We gave Rodney a long list of must-play songs for the reception and he expertly wove them into his existing playlist. Rodney was also our MC and kept our guests entertained and engaged all night long. An extra bonus was that he had a portable sound system allowing him to provide music at our ceremony at a separate location before travelling to the reception venue.
