McMenamins Edgefield Karaoke Wedding
Christina and Bryson’s karaoke wedding reception was held Saturday, March 2, 2019 at McMenamins Edgefield in Troutdale, Oregon. They were actually married one week earlier in Sedona, Arizona, so this was a reception only for friends and family in the Portland area.
After most guests had gathered in Blackberry Hall, the newlyweds arrived around 6:30pm. I announced their grand entrance and they walked in to Led Zeppelin’s “Whole Lotta Love.” Dinner was ready about 20 minutes later and during this time, I played a mix of classic jazz selections as requested by the bride and groom.
When inquiring with PRO DJs, Christina noted they were looking for a DJ who can also allow for our guests to sing karaoke after dinner. Following a short video of highlights from their Arizona wedding, Bryson was the first to go, singing The Cars “Just What I Needed.” From there, I encouraged others to sign-up to sing their favorites, but also opened the dance floor.
After a few more karaoke performances that included Queen’s “Crazy Little Thing Called Love,” it was mostly dancing for the next hour. The energy really picked up for “Uptown Funk,” “Shut Up and Dance” and “Can’t Stop the Feeling,” but it was LMFAO’s “Party Rock Anthem” that really moved the groom and fired up the crowd.
Karaoke returned for the last few songs including Bryson and his friends performing Weezer’s “Say It Ain’t So.”
Congratulations Christina and Bryson and thank you for choosing PRO DJs.
Corporate Karaoke Party At Salishan Resort
PRO DJs had the opportunity to perform at the FAST Enterprises corporate karaoke party held at Salishan Resort in Gleneden Beach, Oregon on Saturday, February 2, 2019.
A long day of activities that included a late dinner at the Newport Aquarium didn’t slow down this group who danced and sung well past Midnight.
After David got us started with the Barenaked Ladie’s ‘Be My Yoko Ono,’ another David performed The Notorious B.I.G.’s ‘Hypnotize.’ I spun dance music selections in between from Justin Timberlake, TLC, Beyonce and requests for Britney Spears.
Other popular karaoke titles were “Uptown Funk,” “Footloose,” “Sweet Caroline,” “Complicated” and more.
Post Event Satisfaction Survey:
“Rich came early and got everything set up. When we walked in he had good tunes going. We did Karaoke but when people didn’t want to sing he had people out on the dance floor. I appreciated that he talked when he needed to but didn’t by any means try to be the center of attention and he wasn’t overbearing.” -Kimberly R., FAST Enterprises – Salem, OR

Rich did a great job at my son’s Bar Mitzvah. He kept the energy at the right level throughout the evening. He kept the kids entertained during cocktail hour with games, which allowed the adults to mingle without a lot of distraction. Then, when it was time to focus on dancing, he played a great mix of music that had young and old alike dancing. We requested a couple slow dances and those were added in at just the right time. Great, memorable evening. -Anna Winthrop (Jordan’s Bar Mitzvah) – Portland, OR (8-25-18)
