Gresham events range from small family gatherings to full wedding receptions, and the services below are built to cover that entire spread. Full wedding day work, standalone party bookings, portable setups for spaces without house sound, and corporate event coverage all fall under one roof. Each service gets scaled to the size of the event rather than treated as an afterthought. Look through the options below and reach out with your specific details so a plan can be worked out ahead of time.

Wedding DJ Services

Wedding DJ services  booked through this page get full coverage: the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception are handled as one continuous event instead of separate pieces. Music choices reflect the couple rather than a generic setlist, timing gets coordinated with the venue and photographer beforehand, and the microphone stays warm and unscripted through toasts and introductions.

DJ Services

Outside of weddings, DJ bookings around Gresham cover birthdays, class reunions, retirement parties, and community gatherings that need real music direction. A planning call ahead of the event pins down the must-play songs, the ones to leave off entirely, and the general energy you’re aiming for once the music starts for the night.

Mobile DJ Services

Barns, backyards, and smaller Gresham venues without built-in sound get a compact setup through our Mobile DJ Services that doesn’t sacrifice quality for portability. Equipment sets up cleanly, runs quietly through the event, and packs down just as fast once things wrap, leaving the space exactly how it was found, with nothing left behind for the host or venue to clean up afterward.

Corporate Party DJ Services

Gresham businesses book corporate party DJ services for holiday parties, retirement send-offs, and team celebrations on a fairly regular basis. Music gets adjusted to fit the crowd and the venue, background levels stay conversation-friendly when needed, and the whole event runs on whatever schedule the day already has planned from start to finish.

About Dan

Who I Am?

Every event has its own rhythm, and figuring that out fast is most of what Portland DJ Dan Weisman actually does behind the booth. A wedding reception, a retirement party, and a company holiday event all call for different pacing and energy, and treating them the same way rarely works. Serving Gresham and the rest of East Multnomah County means adjusting to what the event actually needs instead of running the same set every time. Every booking starts with a real conversation about the music and the schedule, equipment gets tested with backups on hand, and the goal stays the same: keep things running smoothly enough that nobody has to think about the sound.

Why Choose Portland DJ Dan Weisman in Oregon, USA

Gresham has a handful of DJ options to choose from, so the difference usually comes down to what happens before the event, not just what shows up on the day. Every booking with Portland DJ Dan Weisman includes an actual planning conversation about your music, your schedule, and how the event should feel, not a generic form to fill out. Backup equipment travels to every job, timelines get confirmed with the venue in advance, and the entire focus stays on keeping the event on track from start to finish.

Reasons to Trust

Every request from the planning call gets written down and followed through, so nothing about your Gresham event depends on memory alone that day.

Your Best Choice

A tested setup and backup equipment mean one dead cable or blown speaker never becomes the story people remember from your Gresham event.

Right Choice for You

Music and pacing get planned around your specific event, not pulled from a generic playlist used at the last Gresham booking that came through.

Professional

Timeline changes and last-minute surprises get handled quietly and calmly, without ever becoming something your guests notice.

Dan is so great! We had him for our wedding August 2026 and the crowd loves him, he is very personable, and he did great playing our music with our specific requests included to play certain songs at certain times and even to fade out our first dance song towards the end. He did great communicating and making sure he kept me informed of the time as needed to keep me on track with the upcoming events and music changes. His sound system did not fault and he was super prepared with everything when we arrived, including the microphones which worked great. He was so sweet and we highly recommend him! We will certainly be telling our friends for their upcoming weddings

DJ Dan was a great MC and DJ for our wedding! He made jokes with the audience while calling tables for the buffet, and kept things moving with the right tone, without being overbearing. The music was great to dance to and kept people on the dance floor all night! We had some technical issues with the mic during the ceremony, but otherwise everything ran smoothly so we could enjoy the night. I would recommend DJ Dan for your next event or wedding.

Wedding Date 7-4-26 @ The Mason Jar Onalaska WA. We highly recommend DJ Dan. His communication, helpful planning, experience, and sound system really helped to make our day better than we imagined. Reasons you should hire DJ Dan 1. From the beginning we planned via phone calls-this helped us get to know each other and create a plan that fit our day perfectly 2. The sound. We had 2 completely different areas that needed sound (ceremony/reception). Everyone could hear perfectly. It was clear with smooth transitions. 3. The music. We were able to share our own made playlists via Spotify with our selected songs for ceremony and our preferences for cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing. He made himself familiar with our exact songs. 4. Master of ceremonies. During dinner he helped keep our guests engaged and organized for a buffet service. He knew our timeline, is great on a mic, and never let a silent moment go. 5. Bonus! During/after our wedding he went above and beyond capturing photos/videos of our reception and shared it with us. What a special surprise to receive of moments I didn’t know were captured.

DJ Dan spun tunes for our grand opening event. He curated play list that appealed to my team and the attending guests. Dan arrived early for set up. He has professional and compact equipment—most appreciated in a retail environment. He gladly took and accommodated requests. His music set the tone for a great celebration.

Dan was the DJ for my cousin once removed wedding out in battleground. He was awesome he kept the music flowing all night taking requests of songs from young kids that he wasn't even familiar with and mixing them seamlessly into the evening. His equipment was newer and high quality providing clear sound throughout the event space.

Dan was easy to talk to and seemed willing to listen to song preferences. My daughter thought things were going to go well. We could not hear him with his PA system, even after i brought this to his attention. This was weird because we could hear the people giving their toasts using the same mic. He played really odd and not great music as people were coming into our wedding reception. With all the great music choices available, this was strange elevator-like music that was really awful. He also did not play songs or genres the bride/groom asked for. Though once he started playing dance music the atmosphere did improve. Although I'm sure he has a great sense of humor as other reviewers have noted, I did not appreciate being referred to as Good Golly Miss Molly at my daughters wedding.

DJ Dan made our wedding a blast!! Everyone was on the dance floor. He created a playlist based on my specific tastes. He also played music and provided mics for our outdoor ceremony. The sound was amazing and even the last row could hear what was said. He was so enthusiastic and it shows that he loves what he does. He was very affordable and flexible! I would hire again in a heartbeat.

We got married August 3, 2019 at The Armory in downtown Portland. My (now) husband (woohoo) was in charge of the DJ. He called two companies and ended up picking DJ Dan. They initially talked on the phone for about an hour and my husband was sold. He had also read Dan's reviews, which were very good! A DJ is half the fun of your wedding and to be honest, I wasn't sold at first...only because Dan didn't have as many reviews as the other company that my husband had called. But don't let that fool you! DJ Dan was AMAZING!! We loved him and so did everyone else. Our dance floor was full all night long! Before the wedding, we got the chance to meet with Dan who is very personable (we were coming from out of state and it's always nice to meet in person if you can), we emailed back and forth to get all the details sorted out, and we had a final phone call to work out all the fine/final details. Dan helped with the wedding timeline, showed us his itinerary of how he was going to run the night, asked questions about things I hadn't even thought about, and was able to give us advice about how he had seen things done in past weddings and leaving it up to us to chose what worked for us. The day of the wedding he came and set up a few hours before the wedding..which was great! Ensuring that he was on time and that everything worked. Everything felt so smooth that day! He has a lot of experience, he is a great value (we booked for an extra hour too!), fun, professional, easy to communicate with, and quick to respond! Thank you so much Dan for being part of our big day! It wouldn't have been the same without you!

Incredibly talented DJ! I hired Dan for our Timberline wedding on 9/7/18 and all I can really say is WOW! I am not a super organized person and really did not have my ducks in a row as far as music (or so I thought). My husband and I are from 2 different cultures with extremely different taste in music. Because of this, I was looking for a DJ with some experience in meshing cultural music to help all of our guests feel welcome and have lots of fun. Dan absolutely nailed it! He helped me narrow down songs for every piece of the ceremony as well as the big songs for our reception (first dance, grand entrance, father daughter). This was exceptional because he listened to who we were and made song suggestions based on who we were as a couple and not just what he liked or what is popular. He came prepared with songs he researched (on his own without even a little help from me) as well as taking requests for music he has never even heard before that day and working them into the party. Although no one could tell because he is SO good at what he does, I am sure this was not an easy wedding to DJ and he made it look and sound so perfect. Dan went above and beyond any expectation I could Imagine. He helped my brother in law prepare for officiating. He worked with the photographer to make everything I failed to plan happen like clockwork and I never had to stress about anything. Dan brought his A game to my wedding and stayed on top of it all night. My guests didn't even want to let him leave, we extended the party twice and they still couldn't get enough. Dan was such a great addition to our wedding and I cannot imagine there is a more fun, organized, and personal DJ. Dan, THANK YOU for being such a kind and amazing person and making our wedding so memorable. Thank you for integrating the music and in effect helping to integrate family and friends who came as strangers to each other and left as friends. You were/are simply the best!

Mahalo Plenty Maui DJ Dan! You helped make our wedding day and reception spectacular! Dan created a playlist based on songs we provided and was able to weave in the Hawaiian feeling we wanted. Dan gave us a CD after the event that IS the soundtrack of our life. Not just a DJ - Dan provided humor and a number of great stories. Thanks Dan, you are forever in our hearts. Here is a photo of Dan predicting a long and happy life and getting a lot of laughs in the process.

DJ Dan was the DJ for our 5th grade banquet last May. He was amazing! The 100 students we had at the event had a blast dancing to his music. DJ Dan was very adaptive to what the students wanted to hear, while ensuring that the music was also age appropriate. He had them do dance contests, danced with them, and let them see help DJ. I would definitely recommend DJ Dan for any event!

DJ Dan hosted and DJ'd our reception at the 5 Palms. As it was a destination wedding, we did everything by phone and email. Dan was super friendly from the beginning, attentive and always answered every question I had. He made every effort to play all of our favorite songs, which were a lot! He was even gracious enough to play some Persian music for our family! Dan did a fantastic job and even took some pictures after the photographers left and sent them to us! We want him around for all our parties!!

We used DJ Dan Weisman services recently for our wedding at the 5 Palms Restaurant. HIs constant efforts and attention to detail in order to make our day that much special where so greatly appreciatted and noticed by all guests attending. Dan met with us a few days before our wedding at our hotel to discuss the play lists and how we wanted our day to go. I cannot recommend enough to you to use the services of DJ Dan Weisman, he really went above and beyond for our day. He played all the songs we wanted and accomodated for the 2 different cultures attending our wedding, being english australian, and french canadian music. His services was greatly appreciatted and his fees are very good for the service he provides. We highly recommend for you contact him for your DJ needs. Aron & Édithe Québec, Canada
