Michael was so wonderful to work with during my wedding! He is extremely professional and knowledgeable about everything a wedding DJ needs, which was so helpful for my husband and I. We were able to tell him what we were imagining and he was able to take all our ideas and bring them to life. We could tell from our very first conversation that Michael is passionate about his work and truly enjoys what he does. We loved working with him and would highly recommend him and his team for any DJ needs!

This DJ service was absolutely fantastic! Ariel, the owner, was great at responding to inquiries and ensured everything was set up perfectly. He was incredibly accommodating, working with us to make sure our day was truly special.
When our original DJ, Michael, had an emergency, Lane stepped in—and he was amazing! Lane was not only kind and flexible, but he also kept us on track with our day-of timeline, asking all the right questions and making sure everything flowed smoothly. He really knew his stuff! Additionally, the sound system and speakers were fantastic and nothing went array.
A special shoutout to Lane for turning off the mic when one of the groomsmen got a bit too rowdy—lifesaver, haha! We didn’t even have dance floor lights included in our package, but Lane brought some along and set them up at no extra cost, which added a great vibe to the night.
Overall, we’d highly recommend this DJ service to anyone looking for a fun, memorable, and professional experience. We’d definitely hire them again!

Michael was an awesome DJ. Our wedding reception started late, and he had no problem covering down and keeping the crowd entertained with a great playlist while we took pictures with the photographer. He was very friendly and accommodating, and helped keep us on timeline by consistently checking with us about the flow of speeches, cake cutting, etc. We definitely recommend!

We used Fun Squad DJs for our wedding at Horning's Hideout in North Plains. It was an amazing evening. We were super picky about our music and created a playlist. Most DJs I phoned wouldn't work with a playlist. Michael had no problem accommodating our every request. Thank You so much Michael!

Michael with Fun Squad DJs was more than an amazing DJ, he was the emcee and kept the party going the whole night! The dance floor was always full and everyone raved about the DJ and the dance! Michael was great at pre-wedding communication and made sure we had all our wants/needs met and had great ideas for what we didn't think of! He was the BEST host for the wedding and played such an amazing mix of music throughout the night. If you want a DJ who will make your wedding memorable and special you will not regret booking Fun Squad DJs!

My husbands Brendon and I had Michael as our DJ at our wedding on 05/19/23 at the Troutdale House.
Fun Squad DJs was a preferred vendor of our venue and we instantly understood why. Everyone we met from
the company was extremely patient, helpful, kind, funny and knew how to have a good time. We met with
Michael before the wedding to go over our songs and song list and we learned that Michael would be our
DJ the night of our reception. Michael was awesome and kept the party alive. Our guests loved him,
the music, and the whole atmosphere of the evening which we truly believe is credited to an awesome DJ.

Your wedding DJ is one of the most important parts of your guests' experience and we made an absolutely great choice with Michael at Fun Squad DJs. He is really friendly, is easy to work with, and passionate about what he does. He set us up with a Spotify account to put the songs we wanted. He helped us hone the timeline we made along with the team, which is super important for flow. He was our M.C. We named the tables after our favorite things and Michael was a sport in saying special things to call out a table for their turn to get food at the buffet. DJ Michael was essential for the smooth flow of things. He was the hype person of the night! Our family and friends had fun!
Like many brides, I was so busy planning a lot of other parts of the wedding that I didn't have time to choose specific songs I wanted. But DJ Michael got us. He played Luther Vandross' Dance with My Father for the first dance with my dad. My husband was in charge of booking the DJ, so he and DJ Michael were the ones directly communicating but I was very involved. DJ Michael is very experienced, especially with weddings. He is professional, a pleasure to work with. Didn't miss a beat. He knows how to read a crowd. We had such a fun time!! Thanks a million Michael!

AMAZING JOB BY MICHAEL!
Everything was spot on with everything. The lighting on the walls was amazing and really breathtaking how it transforms the room. We didn't have the money for drapes so these lights really were a great option to have. Thank You so much Michael. I will let all of the gals know how wonderful you were to work with!

Michael was the best DJ ever!
We booked Michael as our DJ for our wedding at The Tin Roof Barn. After our first phone call, we knew immediately that we wanted to have him DJ our wedding. He is professional, has years of experience, and is so relaxed and chill, we loved his vibe! My husband and I both loved working with Michael throughout. When we decided to postpone in 2020, he was quick to make the rescheduling easy to do for our wedding in August 2023. Picking our songs for the ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing was easy. I felt like after Michael took a look at our song choices he knew exactly what to play all night. Our dance floor was PACKED as soon as he announced the floor was open! Michael read the crowd and knew exactly what to play next to keep the party going. Everyone could make requests using their phones as well. I swear I thought the dance floor was going to break. Thank you Michael for everything, the night could not have been more perfect thanks to you and we highly recommend Michael for your wedding DJ!

Four words: Work with DJ Mike! Throughout the entire planning process, Mike guided us with incredible ideas, his professionalism, and truly his excitement. From our first interview call, we knew we were in amazing hands but we really didn't know how AMAZING! So many people, and I mean so many, came up to us at the wedding and after saying how incredible DJ Mike was and how they could hire him for their next event. Our 140-person wedding was partying all night long thanks to Mike! Our friends have joked our wedding is now the standard for future weddings, and we can't take the credit for that - that's all Mike, thanks for making us look good!!

We had an amazing time with Michael at Fun Squad DJs. Our wedding date was just one month ago in Salem. Everything was spot on and the music was always at a perfect volume. This was something important to me due to my parents having hearing problems. I cant say enough good things about my experience. One thing I forgot to mention above was that Michael was instant on replying to every email I sent with questions and changes. I would usually hear from him within one hour.
Thank You to Michael and Fun Squad DJs.

Michael ruined my wedding! He messed up the song I walked down the aisle to, switched our mother and son/father daughter dance songs, switched our bouquet toss song with another activities song we did (a speed round), started playing our cocktail hour music during the dancing/party time, and literally did not even bring the planning sheet I spent hours upon hours working on for him. The company gives a planning sheet to fill out for both the ceremony and reception and asks you to submit it at least two weeks before your event. I filled everything out down to the second I wanted each song started and stopped at and even added extra lines for some additional things I wanted. I honestly don’t even know how he managed to do this but he only had some of the information saved but half of it was missing so he literally walked up to me while I was eating dinner and asked me what he was supposed to do next!! I was so stunned I gave a blank stare and asked him to follow my planning sheet in which he responded that he didn’t bring! So my mom and I had to sit there and think, trying remember what exactly I had picked for everything. Even after reminding him, he still switched things around and continued to come up to me between each activity asking when to start!! On top of that, he also had a really weird energy and seemed very awkward. I truly feel like I would have been better off not having a dj and using an iPod over him being there. Additionally, there was a whole disaster with the uplighting we had paid them to bring. It got water damage from a pipe bursting and although that wasn’t necessarily their fault, I only found out about it the day before my wedding because I was calling to confirm details. At that point it was too short of notice to find another company to provide them. Then to make it even worse, a few days after the wedding I found out that the printer for the Photo Booth had also been damaged so none of my guests got copies of their pictures! Maybe the other DJ that works for the company would have done a better job but it is not worth the risk so save yourself the trouble and do not book them! The only positive thing I can say is that they did refund us due to the uplight fiasco but that doesn’t even begin to make up for the most important day of my life being ruined.

Going into our wedding planning process, music and the dance party were top of mind for me. I had a vision of all of our friends and family mingling on the dance floor and we needed a partner that was going to make that dream come true.
Working with Fun Squad DJs and Michael was a top-notch experience and he made sure that our party was everything we wanted and more. From our first call, Michael brought a personal touch to the proceedings and truly sought to understand what we were looking for at our wedding.
Fun Squad DJs and Michael isn't just limited to music, as he was also able to bring a photo booth, which was a hit with all of our guests throughout the entire night.
Michaels planning process helped us to maintain the level of control over the music we were looking for, while also relying on Michaels years of expertise throwing the best parties.
We were able to indicate which songs were a must, which were a maybe, and which we definitely didn't want to hear. From there, during our final planning meeting we went through these selections so that he could craft the final product. And it worked out perfectly -- our dance floor was never empty and our guests left raving about how good the music was and how much fun the photo booth was.
If you're looking for a professional to bring your event to the next level, we highly recommend Fun Squad DJs!

We had an incredible experience with Fun Squad DJs. From our initial consultation with Ariel to the final event, we felt like we were working with top notch experts. Their ability to collect information, learn and get to know our musical tastes, and transform it all into the best party experience for our wedding was unbelievable.
Furthermore, Ariel's operational expertise and attention to detail kept us on track and helped us account for things we hadn't even thought of in the planning process. This was extremely helpful as we didn’t have a formal planner and put us at ease during stress moments.
We got so many compliments from our guests on the music and Ariel’s DJing the night of our wedding – from the post-ceremony drinks vibe to the dance floor, which was packed until the very last second. We couldn’t have asked for a better result!
I highly recommend Fun Squad DJs.

My wife and I had to source a DJ for our wedding last minute, so I reached out to the Fun Squad DJs team about one week before the event. Michael quickly set up a call with me and my wife to discuss the event and exactly what we were looking for. The moment I got on the phone with Michael I felt at ease, and I knew we had made the right choice.
Even given the very short notice Michael was able to source an amazing DJ, integrate our music requests, coordinate timing, make sure the equipment was all set to go, etc. The DJ was amazing, and was super responsible regarding setup/soundcheck--I didn't need to do nor worry about anything besides showing up to my own event. I never once felt stressed or concerned. On top of that, Michael is extremely responsive (much more so than other companies I looked into), and his pricing is extremely competitive.
I would 100% recommend Michael and Fun Squad DJs to anyone who needs a DJ for their event!

I am utterly disappointed with the services provided by Fun Squad Djs. I cannot express enough how terrible our experience was. First and foremost, they forgot the photo booth we specifically requested, which left our guests disappointed and us feeling like we wasted our money. There were multiple stories on what happened with the photo booth, nonetheless it was extremely disappointing.
Moreover, they completely disregarded our carefully curated playlist that they asked us to create (on Spotify), and instead played a haphazard selection of songs that didn't fit the vibe of our special day. It was as if they didn't even bother to pay attention to our preferences.
To make matters worse, when we approached them about these issues, they became incredibly defensive and dismissive, refusing to take any responsibility for their mistakes. It's disheartening when a vendor you've entrusted with such an important part of your wedding is unwilling to acknowledge their shortcomings.
Adding insult to injury, it took them over a month to process our refund. Their lack of professionalism and poor communication only further compounded our frustration and dissatisfaction.
They provided a subpar service, displayed a lack of integrity, and left us with unpleasant memories of what should have been the happiest day of our lives. Sure you can save some money with the discounts they offer but save yourself the headache and look elsewhere for a DJ who actually cares about their clients and can deliver on their promises.

Hello Sofia, We're so sorry to hear that you didn't didn't receive the photo booth ordered...
with the package. We take pride in our services and we apologize for not meeting your expectations. We take every event and every client we work with seriously and definitely missed our goals this day.
We immediately issued a refund and would like to offer you a complimentary photo booth and DJ service for any future event or party. This review took us by surprise after reading the wonderful email you sent regarding Ariel (owner-DJ) as such a wonderful person to work with. She really enjoyed working with you as well.
We have learned from this and have put systems in place to prevent this. We now have every DJ pick up all equipment no less than 24-hours in advance of any event. We would rather be over prepared for every event.
Thank you again, Sofia, for taking the time to share your thoughts with us. I really hope you will take us up on the free service we offered. We would love to work with you again.
If you have any questions please email me directly. I'm only too happy to help any way I can.

This really was the best day ever and a great deal of that is Thanks to Fun Squad DJs. We are huge into all kinds of music so hiring the right DJ was super important to both of us.
From the start communication was way better than any other vendor we hired. We had one vendor we couldn't reach until the week of the wedding so Fun Squad DJs being so quick to reply to every question was amazing.
The ceremony and reception were in two different locations and they did everything with precision and ease. Every music cue was perfect and the sound quality was superb. I have nothing but great things to say. We are super picky so if I had something negative to say like our cake (different vendor, cough, cough), I would. Seriously it was great and my company will use them next for our annual party.
Thank You Fun Squad DJs!

I cannot say enough good things about Michael. Our wedding reception was carried out flawlessly, all thanks to him! The music was fantastic, and everyone had a great time. Michael made himself available whenever we needed him in the months leading up to the wedding. He helped us plan every single detail. He provided us with numerous helpful suggestions. He was more than a DJ to us he helped us PLAN our wedding.
He provided excellent service, at an excellent price. HIGHLY recommend!

I would not recommend this vendor. From the start it was a little off, they did not attend our phone call meeting (because of a Positive COVID result) Which I understand, but they should have told us before we were waiting to talk on the phone that they would not attend. When we did get to talk on the phone we explained what type of music we wanted and how the night would go. The day of the wedding a new person shows up- not the one we had been talking with without warning. They didn't have our music and played the most random stuff. We also heard a few repeats. We had to remind the DJ during the wedding what we wanted to hear. No one would hear the DJ announce anything for dinner. They didn't bring several things we paid for the (photo booth, white speakers, wireless Mic for our ceremony etc). Then to add insult to injury they took over a month to refund us (the check was in the mail then it wasn't then they did end up Venmoing us a particle refund).

If you are looking for one of the best DJ's around, I would highly recommend Fun Squad DJ's. Michael went above and beyond the normal duties of a DJ to make my wedding flow smoothly and is great at keeping everyone engaged in the event! Our wedding coordinator was a no show and caused so much stress but Michael really was such a help. During my wedding, there was an issue with the venue which pushed up the end time of the reception by over an hour. Michael was so so professional and helped find a solution to this problem so my husband and I as well as our friends and family could enjoy our evening. Michael kept the reception perfectly paced (even after the end of the event was moved up) without making my husband and I feel rushed or stressed and NO EXTRA CHARGE by the way. In addition, he did a spectacular job at choosing music that kept all of our guests (of all ages) on the dance floor and having a great time. I could not have asked for a better DJ for my wedding reception and would recommend him to anyone that wants a fantastic, fun, professional DJ that goes out of his way to make your wedding a huge success!

Michael missed a few music cues during our ceremony and started songs at the wrong places. I chalked it up to communication - I thought perhaps my own instructions in the ceremony script were unclear.
Then we got to the first dance.
He absolutely BLASTED us in the face with our song, at top volume. We stopped and stared at him. He didn't react to us at all for almost a solid minute, until we started gesturing to others and yelled at him to turn it down.
I had curated a 2.5 hour playlist for the dancing part of the celebration that my partner linked Michael well in advance. All he had to do was press shuffle on Spotify. But he started blasting "Single Ladies" as soon as the toasts were finished. I intentionally left this song off my playlist because there was only 1 person at the entire reception who was single, and I think the song is demeaning to play at weddings. This was my first clue that he was not following our instructions.
He continued playing other stereotypical "wedding" songs - ones that I did not approve and do not personally enjoy. I asked my husband to speak with the DJ about it.
My husband went to ask him why he wasn't playing our playlist, and he said he "didn't get it." It was in his email inbox. One of my bridesmaids then CALMLY and POLITELY approached to ask him if he had gotten the playlist that I sent him. He immediately told her that she needed to "calm down" and "get away" and that she was "getting all up in his grill." I went and told him he needed to be more polite to my bridesmaids and he told me, "I wasn't rude! I'm sorry if she TOOK it that way." That is not an apology, and not how you speak to the bride OR guests at the wedding.
At that point he had finally switched the music to my playlist, so I left it alone and tried to enjoy the rest of my evening. However, Michael's unprofessional demeanor and his inability to follow simple instructions left a sour taste in my mouth. I want to warn EVERYONE about this company. Don't waste your money. Hire actual professionals.

Absolutely amazing! Very professional and fun! I highly recommend them, everything ran smoothly. Ariel has a bubbly and fun personality which adds to the exiting atmosphere of a wedding but is incredibly personal and professional. Over all it was the most amazing day of our lives. A huge part of that was the music and perfectly organized announcements and great communication with me on the wedding day. Don't be shy about communication with ariel, they/she will make it work and is very helpful. This company is also open minded and LGBTQIA+ friendly! Which is perfect for my family and our values. Bottom line I highly recommend. It was the perfect DJ choice for us. It was so perfect, thank you fun squad!!!!!

Fun Squad DJs and Michael brought the best package for our September wedding!! We heard from a majority of our guests that they have never been to a wedding as fun as ours and were surprised by how packed the dance floor was all night. This was due to Michael’s high energy and killer music!
As the bride, the ceremony was the most memorable part for me. I collaborated with Michael to design the processional/recessional flow which was tailored to be classy, but not overly sappy. It was seamless and brought everyone to (happy) tears. I could focus on being in that moment because he took care of everything! Prior to the wedding, Michael was easy-going and fun to work with! The moment I had a question he responded through email or phone immediately, I mean really fast and within minutes of my question. That was amazing. I have never met someone who responded so quickly through email! He is an incredibly thoughtful, attentive, kind and a COOL guy! Michael learned styles/songs we liked and didn’t like so he could make the evening fit our style and keep the vibe up which he knocked out of the park! I know Fun Squad DJs and Michael especially facilitates a wide array of events, but I would 100% recommend them/him for your wedding if you want someone who is a pleasure to work with, and someone you can totally trust, and keep your guests dancing all night!

I’ve never paid a vendor in full prior to the event, and I never will again. Every single time we are supposed to have a call regarding my wedding the call is postponed, rescheduled, or my favorite - they don’t call me at all. I’m now at less than 30 days til my wedding and I still cannot get someone to give me a phone call. Beware of their EXTREMELY poor communication before booking this company.

DJ Michael and his talented team really made our wedding unforgettable! We worked with Michael for our event. He is AMAZING!! He spent time getting to know my fiancé and I and our music taste/preferences. The planning session with him was a ton of fun and we really felt that he cared about our event. Fast forward to the day of and all I can say is WOW! We got so many compliments from our guests regarding Michael, our DJ. The venue even told us that they have never seen a wedding with so many people dancing and singing along. That is truly at testament to Michael's skills. Michael also made it possible for me to surprise my husband with a special song at the reception. He brought our vision to life, made us dance in the cloud (Dry ice). I would recommend Michael at Fun Squad DJs to everyone!

I have had the chance to work with Michael at Fun Squad DJs at many weddings and events that I have photographed and always loved how he picked the perfect music for each portion of the night and kept people dancing! When it came to getting married myself, Fun Squad DJs was the first company I emailed. Music has always been the number one priority for me for my wedding (other than photographer, open bar and my future husband of course!) so I needed to make sure who ever I hired was someone who I felt would listen to what I wanted. I felt after our first call DJ Michael was that and more. When we had to postpone not once, but TWICE (and hopefully the last time) they were always kind and helpful, it really took a lot of my shoulders to know he was on my vendor team! Big Thanks to Fun Squad DJs!

DJ Michael from the Fun Squad DJs was AMAZING at our wedding. We interviewed several possible DJs and chose him for his professionalism and his ability to hear our vision for the day. He played a lovely dinner set and an INCREDIBLE dance set. We provided an eclectic song list (funk, electronic, salsa, hip hop, pop, Balkan beats, etc.) and he totally worked with it - everything flowed well and people were on the dance floor for 3 hours straight. It was amazing. He made no cheesy announcements and just kept the music going. Michael also did really well at managing guests and fending off unwanted requests with their request app. Fun Squad DJs was highly professional and flexible when it came to navigating COVID, rescheduling, providing proof of vaccination, etc. Big thanks to them for playing such an amazing party and for making our vision come to reality. Highly recommend!

Michael and his assistant John did our wedding earlier this month. This was hands down the best DJ I could of asked for. Mike went out of his way to make our day perfect. Not only was the music perfect for us and our guests but he made sure all the other vendors knew and followed our timeline and made everything flow smoothly which reduced all stress and anxiety for me. His equipment, and up lighting was super high tech and up to date which was needed due to us needing three set up areas and cordless mics. Overall super friendly, very professional and had everyone pumped and having an amazing time. All of my guests loved him and I would highly recommend him to everyone for any occasion. Thanks again Mike and John!
PS: I have had no vender ever respond to emails so fast like Michael does. I hire different vendors for my work all the time and communication is usually slow. NOT WITH MICHAEL!

We were one of the many thousands of rescheduled weddings. I wasn't gonna let any pandemic take my big day away from me.
What a special day we had. I found our venue and DJ on Wedding Wire and did not regret a thing. My first time ever looking at Wedding Wire but it works well. The music was just what we wanted and our family and friends had a great time. They actually used our wedding on the webpage. The choices were just at the right time.
I do have to say that the communication was always on! I mean I would have a question and shoot over an email and within minutes no matter what time of day I got a reply. No business has ever had that commitment to service that I have ever dealt with at least. One other thing was that Michael mixed a bunch of songs I wanted together for my father and my dance. I never ever heard a no. This is the go to DJ in my book. Should anyone ask me I'll tell them Michael at Fun Squad DJs. Oh, make sure to get the photo booth as well. We have so many pictures from that. I wouldn't have changed a thing and if I was to do it again I would have the same great folks working for us.

Truly Amazing Sound
My wife and I tied the knot just after the crazy Portland heat wave that happened. I was so worried we would be melting but it turned out to be a beautiful day. The ceremony music was perfect and my grandmother could hear everything. I think this was one of my biggest fears. To see the smile she had was amazing.
People who know the Oregon Golf Club know the huge tent where we had the reception. I wanted my brother to play a song he wrote on his guitar. No other DJ company I spoke with knew how to make this happen. Michael knew not only how to do it but totally set me at ease that it would be handled and it was. It sounded perfect and everyone loved it. He played all of our must play songs in an order that fit our family. My family isn't the best dancers but I was amazed at how involved they were all night. The music was loud enough on the dance floor for dancing but low enough at the tables to where you could still talk.
I will be recommending Fun Squad DJs to everyone needing a great DJ!
Thank You Michael!

My wedding was absolutely magical but my biggest regret was using Fun Squad DJs. There were a lot of red flags that I ignored because I wanted it to work out; typos on the website, lack of a digital system for song choices, misunderstandings in our email correspondence, etc.
Our previous DJ had fallen through due to COVID and Michael was pleasant and happy to work with us despite the relatively short notice. And I suppose if I had used Fun Squad for ONLY the dancing portion of the night I would have been happy enough. Michael did do a good job keeping people on the dance floor! But that's not enough to make up for all the bad parts.
When Michael first showed up to the venue, both my step-father and father-in-law nearly threw him out because he honestly looked like he had just wandered in from the street. White T-shirt, shorts, slip on shoes. He looked like he had just rolled out of bed. At our semi-formal/cocktail event! I had at least assumed he would have worn black.
I provided him with a flash drive of our specific music and a very detailed document with the order of events. I thought I had been clear enough in my instructions for the processional, but I was wrong. All our songs were rushed through, leaving my bridal party panicked and officiant flustered. There was no pauses like I wanted, like a space for my officiant to tell our guests to put away their phones before I came down the aisle, ruining some of my wedding photos. I really got the feeling that Michael had little to no experience running sound for a ceremony and it definitely showed.
For dinner, we provided a specific playlist of songs that we wanted used. Michael started off playing something similar, but not what we asked for. I sent my mother over to talk to him and he played a few of the songs from our playlist and then switched back to his own choices. I just gave up on it since the music was still chill like we wanted, but it was irritating considering we were pretty clear in stating we wanted that specific playlist.
As I stated before, if I had only used Fun Squad DJs for the dancing portion of my event it probably would have been fine. The first song played (one of our choices) was perfect and got everyone out on the floor. He kept people dancing and that was great. I did have several family members come tell me that they requested songs from him multiple times which he never played. Most of these family members were from Mexico/San Diego and told me they were requesting Mexican songs they wanted to dance to. We had told Michael ahead of time that we were okay with requests and he did play some of the songs my guests requested, but not these ones. I don't want to make any assumptions as to why, but it was frustrating to hear about and have my family be so disappointed. There is supposedly a system for guests to make requests online but I have no idea if anyone used it; I didn't see it advertised for any of the guests so I doubt anyone knew it was there.
I worked so so hard making sure every aspect of my wedding day was going to be perfect. If I could go back, I'd probably just opt to have a friend run an iPod for us instead. I'm sure there's people out there that would have been perfectly happy with the work provided by Fun Squad, but I'm not one of them. I'd like to say you get what you pay for, but I don't even think we got that. Feels like a bit of a scam to advertise yourself as a high-end DJ service when we could have done so much better on our own.

The wedding was at Timberline Lodge on Mt. Hood. The weather of the day was treacherous to say the least, and chains were required to get there! The ski lifts were closed due to blizzard conditions!
DJ time required for the event was flexible, even at the moment of the last dance the time was able to be extended.
The DJ arrived in plenty of time regardless of the hazardous conditions needed to get there! Well done and thank you.

My husband and I hired Fun Squad DJ for our wedding and it was amazing. Everything we requested they helped us with and it was great our wedding planner bailed on us last second and they helped and stepped in where we needed the help and it was great they always made sure we knew what we wanted came first!

Fun Squad DJ crew DJ'ed our second wedding at The Troutdale House, and they were an absolute hit! Not only were the tunes spot on for our wedding, both incorporating classic oldies with new-age pop tunes, but the MC'ing was perfect.
He asked us to give him a schedule of when we'd like him to MC certain events happening throughout the night, and did a perfect job. We were able to hand him the schedule and enjoy ourselves, trusting that he would handle everything and he nailed it. We didn't get to enjoy our first wedding because my mother got extremely ill just before our big day. She passed away the night before our big day. Needless to say, it wasn't the fun day I had hoped for.
Moving forward we'll never even consider using another DJ, we are excited to work with Fun Squad DJ back to all of our future parties we have.

If you’re looking for a DJ that will get your guests dancing (and talking for weeks after about how much fun they had) look no further than FUN SQUAD DJS.
They did a great job with the music for the ceremony and cocktail hour (though I was so wrapped up and busy I don’t know how much I even heard!)
We gave them a pretty big list of must-play songs and he mixed them in such a fun way and added in some great songs we hadn’t requested.
People danced the whole night and I know it’s because the DJ did such a great job with the music!
They are all super friendly and easy to work with. I can’t recommend FUN SQUAD DJS enough!

Fun Squad was our DJ for our wedding at Timberline Lodge and it was AWESOME! From the first day we reached out to Fun Squad DJs through our wedding day, the entire process was easy, and we got exactly what we wanted on our big day.
Fun Squad makes it very easy to start the process of choosing the right music. We reached out via their website and within a few weeks, we had a detailed phone conference to take through our wedding day and the type of music we had expected. They use a software program that allows you to plan your day down to the minute, which gave us a lot of confidence that everything would go as planned.
After we planned out our day and discussed our needs, we were immediately drawn to Fun Squad. They had DJ’ed a few parties we had been to and they always had everyone dancing. Fun Squad has so much energy and passion for what they do and made us feel like our wedding was the most important wedding they had ever played.
On our wedding day, we knew exactly what to expect and had the timing (and accompanying music) all planned out. Fun Squad setup in various places around the venue and was well prepared throughout the day/night. We had an extensive “Do not play” list as well as a list of “must play”. Fun Squad was great at reading the dance floor and playing what they knew the crowd would enjoy. We were able to hear a ton of songs we wanted with a mix of the Fun Squad style, which made the night perfect! We had so many people come up to us after telling us how awesome Fun Squad was and we cannot recommend them enough.

We hired Fun Squad DJs for our wedding, and from the beginning, we knew we were in great hands! Working with Yvonne was so easy, very professional and super organized. We had quite a list of requests and he fit these in while also watching what the crowd was into. Everyone had such a great time, I would highly recommend using them! Thank you very much!!

I say read before you use because you are about to have a great time. It WILL make you have a full night of greatness and it will want you to come back for more. LOL.
We hired Fun Squad for our wedding and my wife wanted a different company, the one with the coffee name. This was the best choice we have ever made. I look back and nothing could have been better. They work in a lot of venues. I remember talking about that to be sure they had worked our venue before. They are those kinds of professionals that make everything will work, NO MATTER WHAT. They see to it that everything goes smooth and without any hangups. My mother is always trying to start something and my wedding day was no different. She went up to try and change our itinerary. They used a very careful way with her that made her so happy thinking she had gotten what she wanted when in fact they never changed our wishes at all. Amazing, my dad was the only person to ever get that, lol.
If you have the chance to see one of their specials grab it while you can. Have fun!

We just had our wedding a few days ago and I couldn't have been happier. I wanted to jump on right away to let others know how great of a time we had. Everything they say came true. We danced all night long and really enjoyed the photo booth as well. OK, I'm headed back to my honeymoon now.
Thank You Mike and Fun Squad DJs!

I recommend that everyone use Fun Squad as their DJ. Everyone loved it! The DJ team did an amazing job at my wedding. Fun Squad DJs arrived the day before the wedding to set up and arrived early on the day of my wedding. I could not have been happier with their services. Not only did the DJ truly ensure that your day goes as planned, but they also helped and offered their expertise which was awesome because we did not know exactly what to do. Fun Squad DJs went above and beyond for our wedding!! The DJ even helped with the itinerary!! They did such a good job. They were all very professional! Thank You!

We came in on a white horse and I have always loved the old song by Laid Back. I didn't think any DJ would find it but our DJ did. What a fun time we had. We know we had the strangest wedding ever but it was our wedding and that's all that matters. It was perfect! Cold but perfect, LOL.

We recently had the pleasure of working with DJ Timothy at our wedding in Portland and can't say enough good things about this service. Timothy was professional and answered every single question we had and then he customized our wedding reception to be the perfect mix for all of our guests. He made the entire evening so much fun and truly memorable for all who attended. Fun Squad DJs was also incredibly easy to work with from booking to planning and payment to the final days up to our event. We would definitely hire them again.

I wanted first dibs on the music request list but my sister wouldn't let me. Then I found out something cool, this DJ has a cool app we all downloaded at the wedding and could request our songs that way. Even cooler was that as the bride my requests went to the top of the list. I kept playing request fights with my sister and family. We had so much fun with it. I am so glad we came across this DJ. Fun Squad DJs really came out and made our evening FUN, no pun intended, LOL.

It took me a while to find the right DJ for my wedding. every DJ company I found all seemed to have the agenda of just selling me their business for a lot of money. I didn't feel that genuine vibe from anyone and I felt like I was just being forced to put my money into a DJ. But then I came across Fun Squad and they were just perfect. From the very beginning, my husband and I felt so comfortable with them and we loved that they were so helpful and accommodating. They were also super understanding of my budget and did not try to sell me on any extra stuff. We had a wonderful DJ and let me tell you, he really was the reason my wedding was perfect. When we first sat down with him to go over the details of our wedding, I was so overwhelmed with stress. But he quickly put me at ease and helped us every step of the way. He definitely made this part of the wedding planning so much fun. My husband's family does not speak english, so we needed an MC who was bilingual. On the day of the wedding he did such a perfect job at making everyone equally feel a part of the wedding. The DJ also did an amazing job with the music - almost all of my guests said the music was the best part of the reception. They also did a great job at incorporating some of my favorite songs and they did a great job at transitioning between songs. Most of all, they really paid attention to every detail. They knew when I was getting overwhelmed and they made sure to help out in any way they could. If I had another occasion, I really would not hesitate to use them again. You will not make a mistake choosing them for your special day!

This was amazing! We heard about Fun Squad through a friend who also used them for his wedding, and we're so glad he did! During the planning process, the DJ was very patient (I can be very picky) and helpful with song suggestions. He played a major role in designing the flow of our ceremony and reception. Leading up to the wedding, we were always in contact with each other and he was very accommodating to all and any requests! On the big day, I really appreciated how the DJ kept me in the loop on every step -- it allowed us to coordinate with each other on things like toasts, dances, etc. seamlessly! And of course, most important of all, they kept everyone dancing all night long! Thank you so much!

Fun Squad DJs is the BEST in the area. They were amazing. We were able to book our string quartet for the ceremony, cocktail hour music, and DJ and MC with them. We also did the photo booth option and those photos were amazing! Not only did they get pictures of our guests before the ceremony and during cocktail hour, while our photographer was with my husband and I, but it worked the rest of the time as well. They were just as good of quality and the ones the photographer took from what I see! They also really helped us with the flow and timing of things like the toasts, cake cutting, first dances, etc. And this was all surprisingly affordable. I could not recommend them more!
