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.

Nothing but 5 stars all around! We had DJ Steven at our wedding a few weeks ago and we’re so happy we did. From his communication through out planning meetings, to his demeanor and helpfulness day of we were grateful he was part of our day. Dance floor was packed all night and many friends complimented on his music choice. Thank you Steven and Stumptown!

JR Music Collective 
Rating: 5.0 (10 reviews)
Portland, OR
  • Solo performer
  • Starts at $2,000

JR Music Collective got its start with the simple idea of live music and DJ service from one vendor caught on across the region and the company began adding more musician/DJs to its roster. Oregon Bride Magazine first recognized JR Music Collective with an award in 2013. The collective has gone on to win awards every year since. We have a talented group of musicians and DJs waiting to make your day wonderful.

JR Music Collective made our music planning process so easy with their detailed questionnaire. The day of the wedding, our DJ / musician (Kelly) arrived on time and got all set up, making this process stress-free for my fiance and I. If I were to to this all again, I’d choose JR Music Collective again!

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.

I can’t say enough amazing things about Henry! From the very start, he made our wedding day unforgettable. Not only was he professional and organized, but he brought so much energy and excitement to every moment. Henry didn’t just play music, he created an experience. His timing was perfect, his song choices kept the dance floor full all night, and the way he read the crowd was pure talent. Everyone had the best time! On top of being an outstanding DJ, Henry went above and beyond as our MC. He kept the night flowing seamlessly, made all the announcements feel personal and fun, and truly knew how to engage the crowd. His energy and charisma had everyone smiling, laughing, and celebrating with us the entire evening. If you’re looking for someone who will make your wedding unforgettable and keep your guests talking about it for years, Henry is your guy! We are so thankful for him and couldn’t imagine our special day without his incredible talent and personality. Highly recommend!

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!

PRGN.City LLC 
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.

Theodore was so kind and attentive to every single detail of our wedding from start to finish. He never failed to make all our requests come to life and really got to know us as a couple. We had some strict rules at our venue and Theodore was able to make a great set while still following all guidelines. He went above and beyond in every part of our wedding day and even offered to help setup/tear down before and after the wedding. We can’t recommend him enough!

Portland, OR
  • DJ
  • Starts at $999

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!

If I could tell you to do one thing for your wedding or event, I’d tell you to hire Jared from pure vision entertainment as your DJ. Seriously. Jared not only took the time to get to know my now husband and I but he curated our whole wedding to fit our likes, dislikes, personality, and vibes. When I tell you I still have people talking about our DJ weeks after the wedding, you’d be shocked at how many people are still making comments about how incredible Jared was. I will never forget my older brother coming up to me while I was dancing the night away at our wedding and saying “You seriously hit the jackpot with this DJ, the way he has put everything together is insane.” And the reason I will remember that moment forever is because I was thinking the same thing the about entire night. Jared made sure all the guests knew what was going on, he communicated so well so no one was out of the loop on what to do next. I told Jared all the things that were really important to me in our meetings prior to the wedding and not only did he make those moments amazing, he went ABOVE AND BEYOND to make them absolutely perfect. His whole set up was so good. It’s hard to say when it comes to sound, music, and microphones that there were no hiccups or mishaps but with Jared at my wedding there truly was nothing that could’ve gone better than it did. My wedding day was perfect and I attribute a HUGE part of that to Jared and the way he carried the whole day. Jared even took the time to get to know the guests and my family and that was so special to me. I’m going to end this again by saying, if I could tell you do to one thing for your wedding day or event… HIRE JARED from PVE, I cannot stress enough how incredible he was and all the extra details and time he put in to making our day so perfect and memorable. Thank you Jared! We appreciate you so much!! -Simon & Aliyah

I have a very diverse musical background and have been listening to, analyzing and loving music since I was a child. I have immense knowledge on most genres so I can fulfill most musical requests and answer questions about songs you might not even know or remember you wanted! I also offer an online client portal to every client that books with me giving access to tools to help you plan your wedding should you need them!

DJ Skrubb was our wedding DJ and did a fantastic job! Working with him was simple and straight forward. He took a playlist of our favorite songs and used that to create a music set that fit our tastes and had our guests dancing the ENTIRE night. We are still receiving comments from friends and family about how good he was and how hard it is to find a DJ who can read a wedding crowd and keep a vibe going all night. During the ceremony he was able to play our edited songs and music clips without issue. Sound quality was good and he provided audio for ceremony, dining and dance floor areas, all of which were in separate areas. Would recommend him to anyone looking for an easy, straight forward DJ to work with that provides great music and good vibes for your wedding.

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.
