Crag Rat Hut Wedding Hood River Oregon
Overlooking the surrounding valley with an incredible view of Mt. Hood, Laura and Sean’s wedding was held at Crag Rat Hut in Hood River, Oregon on Saturday, June 22, 2024.
The 5:30pm ceremony and dancing later were held outside on the large wraparound deck.
Crag Rat Hut Wedding Ceremony Highlights:
- Wedding Party Entrance: Radwimps – Katawaredoki (from “Your name” soundtrack)
- Bride Entrance: Joe Hisaishi – Reprise (from “Spirited Away” soundtrack)
- Bride/Groom Exit: Hoku – Perfect Day
Guests gathered for dinner inside the large event room on the main floor. This area has a small built-in sound system with a cordless microphone and receiver. For background music, I connected my iPad and played a variety of “romantic and fun, upbeat songs” as suggested by the bride and groom. The same playlist also played via my main sound system outside during this time.

The temperature cooled down to the mid 70’s when the dance floor opened around 9pm and the guests did not waste any time enjoying their time outside as I played a little bit of everything… From classics like “Twist & Shout” and “Dancing Queen”, to more recent hits such as “Happy” and “Shut Up And Dance”.
The twilight with the mountain in the background made for a magical evening.
Congratulations Laura and Sean and thank you for choosing PRO DJs.
