The DJ of Tomorrow, Here Today!

PORTLAND DJ AND PORTLAND WEDDING DJ

01

WHY HIRE FUN SQUAD DJS FOR MY EVENT?

We realize you have a lot of choices but we are simply the best at what we do. We try to always maintain midrange pricing because we want to be available to as many people as possible. We only do ONE event per day so we won't ever be coming from or going to any other event but yours. We use the best equipment available for professional DJs and we switch most of it out every year. Lastly, we don't talk over customers, we always listen. 

03

WHAT KIND OF PRO EQUIPMENT IS USED, AND WHY?

This is most definitely a question that should be asked of any DJ company you might be interested in. A DJ is only as good as the tools they use. Sound systems should be one of the first things clients think of when hiring a DJ.

Remember that you and your guests will be listening to the sound system provided by the DJ service provider for at least 5-hours straight. That's a long time. Sound systems that are of bad quality or tuned wrong can not only cause hearing loss but can be very uncomfortable to listen to. People have been know to get headaches from bad sound systems.
Why Electro Voice? They have been doing this since 1930. They put a great deal of money into research and they don't release a product until its perfect. They just released their first battery powered pro speaker. Not because they didn't know how but because it had to be perfect.

THE HOURS SAY YOU ARENT OPEN SUNDAYS, DOES THAT MEAN YOU WONT DJ?

This is always a question most DJs might get. We have office hours and then event working hours.
We do events 24-hours a day 363-days a year.
We don't perform any services on the following holidays: Thanksgiving, Christ's Birthday - Christmas.

05

HOW DO I RESERVE AND BOOK A DJ FOR MY EVENT?

This is made so easy. Right at the top of every page and next to each package there is a "Book Now" tab. That can be clicked for you to fill out a form. Once that is submitted the date is held right away, a contract is generated the next business day and sent over to you for your signature. That gets sent back and we are booked. Planning forms get sent with the contract and invoice as well.

06

HOW FAR DO YOU TRAVEL?

We travel anywhere in the Pacific Northwest (Oregon & Washington). Please see #18 for our Travel Fees.

07

WILL YOU FOLLOW MY PLAYLIST? 

Of course. We want to follow the wishes of our customers. After all, making a customer happy is the key to any successful business. We not only appreciate lists of your favorites but also your unfavorites, lol. The last thing we want to do is play a song you can't stand especially on the biggest day of your life!

08

CAN I CANCEL ONCE BOOKED?

Yes, however, there really is no need if only a change of time, date, or location need to take place. (See #2)

09

IS FUN SQUAD DJS INSURED AND CAN I GET PROOF?

Yes. We are fully insured. Upon request, proof of insurance will be provided 30-days prior to your event date.

10

WHY IS THE PACKAGE PRICING DIFFERENT BETWEEN PRIVATE EVENTS AND WEDDINGS?

Pricing all has to do with the amount of work required for a particular service. The responsibilities as well as skillset of a wedding DJ and a corporate events DJ are totally different.

11

WHAT IF YOU DONT HAVE A SONG I WANT IN THE MUSIC LIBRARY? 

No problem. If we don't have a certain song in our drives of over 45,000 songs we will buy it and get it prior to the event or on-site if need be thanks to our on-site WIFI hot spots built right into our equipment.
NOTE: Please know that our request system as well as instant download system requires on-site WIFI or good ATT hotspot service. Without either of these we are reliant on just what is on our drives locally.

12

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE FOR THE DJ TO SET UP AND TAKE DOWN AFTER?

We have everything we need in custom-built cases. Thanks to these custom cases and the foward thinking from Bose we have everything we need at our fingertips. This ensures everything arriving safe and intact. 
We always arrive to every event 90-minutes prior to the start time to set-up. We only need approximately 20-40 minutes to take down and case back up everything for travel.

13

DOES FUN SQUAD DJS HAVE BACKGROUND CHECKS DONE ON STAFF?

YES! It's unfortunate but this is the world we live in. Our hearts all go out to so many tragedies being reported around the NW and beyond. Where ever there are large groups of people its imperative you know the vendors you have been cleared. This is something very important to us. Each and every staff member including DJs are background checked and must have NO criminal background. We also check to be certain every staff member has a good driving record. We are all fully vaccinated for Covid-19.

14

MAKE MUSIC REQUESTS AT THE PARTY AND BE SAFE AT THE SAME TIME?

Yes, it is, in fact, it is easier with Fun Squad DJs than any other DJ company around. It's true that many guests are simply afraid and/or embarrassed to go up to the DJ at a party or event. Stay socially distant. This takes away that fear. Here is what you can do here:
• Make music requests at the event using your smartphone.
• Make a request while remaining socially distant.
We take that fear away with Make my request now!.

15

CAN I VISIT AN EVENT TO SEE YOU AT WORK?

I'm sorry, no. We would never invite anyone to an event that is someone else's. Imagine if the DJ had a group of people show up at your event. That would be so unprofessional and invasive. We really take our customers privacy sacred. We never tell anyone else about the events or the customer's info for whom we are working. (Check out #16). We do have some great videos and pictures that constantly get updated. Our website is a living source of info.

16

I DONT SEE A BIG CALANDER WITH YOUR AVAILABILITY LIKE THAT OTHER DJ

If you look towards the bottom of our competitors website, they have listed every event they are currently doing,

WITH THE VENUE NAME AND CUSTOMER NAME!

Why any business would share such info is not understandable to me, but, you won't EVER worry about such things here.

​Let me speak plain, we won't EVER share info with anyone no matter who they are. To recieve or share any event info you must be the listed customer or we must have (in writing) permission to work with any third party.

​After all, this event day is sacred and should only be open to those on the invite list. With identity theft what it is today any business being recklessly negligent with your private info is ludacris!

17

WILL YOU BE PERFORMING ANOTHER EVENT ON MY EVENT DATE?

Absolutely not. We only have two DJs and each of us only perform one event each day. We want our focus of the day to be on you and your event for that entire day. We want to be available to you from beginning to end.

18

HOW MANY PHOTO BOOTH PRINTS DO WE GET?

We offer unlimited sittings during the package time. We encourage customers and their guests to keep the photo booth as busy as possible. Each sitting includes one photo strip. Additional photo strips can be added for an additional charge. All digital images are given to the contracted customer.

19

TRAVEL FEES

Travel is 100% FREE anywhere in the Portland Metro Area. This includes all of Washington, Multnomah, and Clackamas Counties. There is no travel charge within these three counties.
We gladly provide service anywhere with the states of Oregon and most of SW Washington.
When outside of Washington, Multnomah, and Clackamas County we have a flat travel fee of $0.35 per mile (round trip from Portland). The Platinum Wedding Package has no travel fees, ever.
There are no additional fees, no hidden fees, and travel fees will never ever change once a contract has been signed for any event date. 
Note: Some specials offer travel at no charge.

LIFE SAVING TOOLS

We are a major vendor at the events we perform at. Its important to us to be a responsible business at the party's we are at. We will be carrying an AED, Narcan, and a LifeVac. These tools could mean the difference at a party between life and death. We are now accepting donations to achieve this goal of all of our DJs having these on board our equipment. These items are not carried to events just yet but they will soon.
