Frequently Asked Questions

Do you travel outside Portland?

Yes—we cover Oregon, Washington, and destination events.

Can you handle last-minute changes?

Our DJs are trained to adapt on the fly. No stress.

What’s your cancellation policy?

Flexible rescheduling with no penalties.

How far in advance should I book DJ services for my private event?

For the best availability, we recommend booking 6-12 months in advance for large events (galas, mitzvahs) and 3-6 months for smaller gatherings. Prime dates (particularly Saturdays) book quickly.

Do you have experience with my specific type of event?

Yes! With over a decade specializing in diverse private events, we've successfully handled virtually every event type. Our extensive experience with bar/bat mitzvahs, charity galas, fashion shows, and cultural celebrations ensures we understand the unique requirements of your specific event.

What makes DJ Cutt Entertainment different from other DJ companies?

Three key differences: 1) Our DJs include active club performers with current residencies, ensuring contemporary mixing skills beyond typical event DJs. 2) We invest in premium production equipment that delivers superior sound and lighting. 3) We offer comprehensive services beyond just DJ/MC, including photo booths, videography, and exclusive special effects.

Can you customize the music to fit our specific event theme?

Absolutely. During our planning process, we'll discuss your vision, preferences, and any specific songs or genres you want included or avoided. Our DJs are skilled at crafting customized playlists that perfectly match your event's atmosphere while maintaining flexibility to read and adapt to the crowd.

What happens if there's an equipment failure or the DJ can't make it?

Your peace of mind is our priority. We maintain backup equipment for every event and have contingency DJs on call. In over a decade of operations, we've never missed an event due to our comprehensive backup systems.
