John Ross Music and Production

5.0

Portland, OR
  • Solo performer

John Ross Music and Production got its start in 2004. The simple idea of live music and DJ service from one vendor caught on across the region and in 2010 the company began adding more musician/DJs to its roster. Oregon Bride Magazine first recognized the musician/DJs at John Ross Music and Production as the “Best Ceremony Musicians” in the state in 2013. The company won that same award again in 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2019, also adding the “Best Reception Band” honor to its list of achievements. As of 2020 the company employs 10 different musician/DJs as well as a full time office manager to serve its clients.

We loved working with Bo and John Ross Music for our wedding! They are very organized and it was easy to fill out the form they provided for must have music vs. do not play songs. We were able to keep updating it as we thought of new songs we loved. Everyone was so impressed with our music throughout the whole day. Bo played live for our ceremony and even learned some specific songs we requested. It was unforgettable! When it came to the reception, Bo was just as impressive, if not more! He checked in with us throughout the event to make sure we were happy or to see if we thought a specific song would excite the crowd. My parents and relatives commented that the sound level was perfect! They could have conversations and still enjoy the music. We had the best time and Bo made sure everyone else did as well. Thank you to Bo Baskoro and John Ross Music for a great wedding day!

Stumptown Djs

5.0

Portland, OR
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,250

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.

As a wedding planner, I've worked with Stumptown DJs a number of times and I always appreciate their professionalism and communication leading up to the big day. And their work onsite is excellent! I never have a worry on a wedding day when I know they'll be DJ-ing. I always recommend them to my clients!

  • Serves Portland, OR

Full custom theme weddings from San Francisco's leading indie DJs. Share your love of music with family and friends. We're here to help you make your wedding sound like the mixtape you exchanged when you first met.

I couldn't have asked for a better experience working with Jamie from Ceremony DJs! My now-husband and I hired him to DJ our wedding in July 2022. Before we selected him as one of our vendors, we had a two hour long Zoom meeting during which we hung out, drank beers, and chatted about all our musical interests and influences. We clicked with him immediately during this initial meeting and opted not to look at other DJ options even though he was more expensive than we originally budgeted for. That was okay with us though because we wanted to prioritize making our wedding a party and we could envision that happening with Jamie behind the decks. During the planning process, Jamie asked about everything: each of our musical preferences throughout the years (high school to college to the present day), what our friends listen to, and what our families listen to. Then we made a collaborative Spotify playlist that he used to create his wedding day set, but we also gave him some creative control since he obviously knows what he's doing. He stayed very available throughout the planning process via text and phone call, which made it easy to work with him. On the actual wedding day, the DJing was absolutely perfect and so much fun. He did a great job controlling the energy of the event, from the guests arriving, to cocktail hour, to the actual reception. Our playlist and preferred music leans towards electronic in terms of genre, particularly house for this event, but he also mixed in tons of fun hip hop and old indie favorites in a way that flowed really nicely. Since the event, multiple guests have told us that that they had fun specifically because the music and DJing were so good, so thank you Jamie for helping to make our wedding a success!

Aria Melody

New York, NY
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,800
  • Serves Portland, OR

As homegrown, native NYC-based wedding DJs, we allow the music to speak for itself in a way that is organic and authentic. We keep things simple and straightforward so you can focus on the most important part of it all — marrying your partner, soulmate and best friend. What you won’t get? A stereotypical, cheesy DJ stealing the spotlight and breaking up the music with bad jokes and unnecessary interruptions. You deserve better. Expect a personal and individualized celebration with great music, precise attention to detail and a fun-filled dance party — all based on 15 years of wedding experience.

Aria melody assigned DJ Jaime to our wedding. Let’s just say, our dance floor was PACKED the entire night. We had two logistics calls leading up to our event so that Jaime made sure that he had all the details he needed to made our event flawless, which he did. Jaime listened to our preferences and curated a playlist that had our guests so exhausted from dancing that half of them didn’t make it to the after party! Would highly recommend aria melody for your party needs!

They did beautiful ceremony music, incredible sax jazz during cocktail hour to keep it classy. Then, they kept everyone engaged and entertained for the reception, from my aunt in a walker to my college friends twerking. We danced the night away but lost our voices from screaming along with the songs too. 10/10 you can’t go wrong with dueling pianos - DJs and wedding bands are out, Felix & Fingers is IN!

10/10 - Highly Recommend - even a MUST HAVE at your wedding! If you want to have the most fun wedding, with the BEST music of all time - hire The Hook Club for your wedding. I have two experiences with The Hook Club - the first was when I was a guest at a wedding in the Hamptons, my best friend got married and they played the best music, the wedding was high energy, happy and all the guests were on the dance floor the entire night! After seeing them live, I reached out to hire them for my wedding in Manhattan (at the NYAC right on Central Park South). I was so impressed by how pleasant and organized Jesse Feathersone and Dan Vernam were to work with. They are true professionals, they know what they are doing and they even supported me on how the wedding reception should flow. They made the preparation process so easy for me, through it I never had to worry about the band logistics because Jesse and Dan gave me the utmost confidence. They have a massive library of songs to choose from and they even learned special songs for the dances (first, mother/son and father/daughter) and special songs to play for us throughout the night - that kind of custom experience is so unusual with wedding bands - I couldn't believe how easy and positive the Hook Club handled these special requests. Every single guest at my wedding could not stop talking about how amazing the band was during and after the fact. My guests were on the dance floor singing and dancing and interacting with them all night. I can't emphasize enough how talented this group is - not just as talented musicians but as talented business people. If you are looking for a stress free experience and a truly talented one of a kind wedding band - HIRE THE HOOK CLUB!!

Joey was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! Our ceremony was out in a meadow and the guests absolutely loved his cello playing before the ceremony. It set such a beautiful scene for the location we chose. During our cocktail hour he played more cello but also included some beat boxing and looping, which my guests raved about and thought was so unique. Sadly, as the bride I missed both of these, but when it came to his DJ skills I can attest that he had the party going all night. He listened to what we wanted and mixed up the playlist so that people were on the dance floor until the very end. He was extremely professional to work with and always listened to our wants.

Kelton was wonderful to work with from start to finish. He stuck with us even when we had to postpone our wedding for two years due to the pandemic, so we really appreciated his commitment to working with us. Kelton has a great system for figuring out your taste, priorities, and run of show. He set up very quickly at our venue, which was key given we were running on a tight schedule, and he managed to produce nice sound in a very cavernous space (no idea how!). He kept us running on time and made all transitions seamless. His music perfectly matched the vibe we wanted, starting with a relaxed cocktail hour and dinner, and gradually increasing the tempo into a full-scale dance party as the night went on. And our friends and family had an absolute blast! He had everyone from 20 somethings to family in their 60s and 70s dancing until the very end! We got so many positive messages the next day, including one person who described our DJ as being "on fleek."

Hiring AMP was the all time BEST decision we could have made for our wedding!

If we asked each and every person what their favorite part of our wedding was, hands down it was the music. Ana, Jimmy, and the rest of the band had everyone dancing the entire night without question. It was hit after hit after hit with the whole crowd! So many people rushed to us to ask how we got so lucky finding them. Ana and Jimmy truly respected and acknowledged everyone’s pronouns and made everyone in our family and party seen and comfortable through the entire process. AMP put their entire heart and soul into every performance. Their passion is so evident with each song they play, and their energy is just contagious. You cannot help but smile and dance throughout their whole set. And the TALENT! The talent is through the roof! All of our guests were completely shocked at the level of professionalism and talent AMP brought to our event. I cannot stress enough how utterly amazing AMP is. Do yourself a huge favor and book them, you will not regret it for a second.

Zeke was so fun to work with, helped to keep the flow of our day on track, and crushed it for the dance party!! Paradox provided a questionnaire form for us to fill out before the wedding which captured all the details Zeke needed to know so that we weren't worried at all on the day of. We had such a blast during the dance party and would recommend Paradox to everyone!
