Portland’s venues are as bold as its spirit, from urban lofts to vineyard escapes. We’ve brought the beats to the city’s best spots, crafting nights couples never forget. Check out our top Portland venues below, where we’ve sparked epic dance floors.

Like a 2nd home to us! Industrial-chic and full of energy. Castaway demands a DJ who can match its energy. We love syncing our uplights with the exposed beams and pushing crisp audio through its spacious open layout.

Lake Oswego elegance meets vineyard romance. We've mastered their indoor/outdoor flow and know exactly how to position speakers for their hillside ceremonies. Those string lights plus our uplighting? Pure magic after dark.

Timeless gardens and bright ballrooms. We’ve mastered every event zone here, providing smooth transitions between ceremony, cocktail hour, and high-energy receptions.

Downtown luxury demands flawless execution. The Sentinel's Governor Ballroom has hosted our setups for everything from intimate 50-person dinners to 300-guest galas. We match their elegance while keeping dance floors packed until the very last song.

The Crown Plaza's renovated ballrooms give us a perfect canvas for full production. We scale from their intimate spaces to grand ballroom setups, and their staff loves us because we always load in on time and respect their timelines.

Tuscan vibes in the West Hills need the right touch. We bring elegant sound for their intimate ceremonies and then transform the reception space into party central. Our uplighting on those wine barrels and stonework? Photographer's dream.
Our team ensures a seamless setup, respecting each venue's authenticity and rules. So you can focus on the celebration and make your venue unforgettable with timeless memories.
