    Great experience, highly recommended

    Brandon was great and he made sure our wedding went off without a hitch. He was personable and really good with the crowd, and the extra attention to detail during our toasts was a welcome surprise.

    Great Beginnings is the best

    Brandon at Great Beginnings is the best! We were fortunate to have him DJ two family weddings. His many years of experience shows in his attention to detail, timing of announcements and playing the perfect music.

    The best!

    Our wedding was incredible, and Brandon was a HUGE part in making it such a success. Not only was he flexible with our timeline, he read the room and played the perfect music for us and our guests to have an epic dance party! With very little direction, he knew exactly what to do throughout the day. Everything from the ceremony through grand exit was seamless. It was a pleasure working with Brandon. We absolutely recommend him and will be hiring him for any future events we can!

    Amazing!!!

    We were fortunate to have Brandon DJ for our wedding. Working with him was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. He not only met but exceeded our expectations in every way.
    His professionalism was evident throughout the planning process. He took the time to understand our musical preferences and vision for the evening. We felt heard and confident that he would create the perfect atmosphere.

    On the day of the wedding, his performance was outstanding. He had a knack for reading the crowd and knew exactly how to keep the energy up. The transitions between songs were seamless, and he effortlessly blended different genres to cater to all our guests tastes.

    In short, if you want a DJ who not only delivers exceptional music but also adds a unique spark to your celebration, Brandon is the one.I wholeheartedly recommend him for any event, as he truly made our wedding unforgettable!

    Best night of our lives

    Brandon was incredible to say the least! From set up to tear down, he had everything dialed in. All our music was cut right at the exact seconds we wanted, and he made sure our officiant was mic’d up properly and made sure we all knew what to do in case something went wrong with the sound (which it never did). He kept the party going all night, hyping up our guests and making sure the dance floor was packed! Overall, our wedding would not have gone nearly as well as it did without Brandon! HIGHLY recommend him!

    10/10 Best DJ!

    We heard about Brandon from a friend, and he was amazing from the start! Super communicative and understood exactly what we were wanting, from our music selection. coordinating games, dances, etc. He was flexible and made our day so smooth for us. He even stayed later then he was supposed to and shut the party down with us! Thanks so much Brandon for your attention to detail, making us the main priority and giving us the best dance party, we will remember for life!!! - Max & Sandy

    Epic dance party

    Brandon CRUSHED our wedding music! From our first conversation with him sharing we wanted an elegant rager for our wedding and he delivered. From the added music in the speeches to the dance party, the music was always spot on. We had high expectations for our wedding music and Brandon exceeded that. After our wedding our guests were constantly talking about our DJ and how amazing he was. If you are picking between Brandon and another DJ, PICK BRANDON! Thank you again Brandon for making our wedding day/night that much more epic than we could have expected.

    June 2023 wedding day!

    Brandon did an amazing job at my wedding! We heard about him from my mother in law who had attended a wedding that he also DJ’d. He did an amazing job to keep the flow of the ceremony and reception running smoothly! He also did an amazing job at staring and keeping the party going (we had a big party crowd). He was extremely flexible when it came to the speeches and everyone comfortability level with the equipment! Thank you so much Brandon!!

    Best DJ Services

    Brandon was the most amazing DJ. His professionalism, responsiveness, passion and reliability is beyond what you can ask for. He made things so easy from start to finish which took off a lot of stress. He was exactly where we needed him to be at all times. He was able to read every situation and adapt. He went above and beyond to make sure everything was running smooth and that everyone was having a great time. Everyone at the wedding loved his choices and had an amazing time. He is the best in the business and I would only recommend him. He helped make our day special and he will do the same for you!

    Best DJ in Portland

    Brandon was above and beyond all of our expectations. He went out of his way to ensure that my wife and I were well taken care of and that he molded specifically to fit our vision for the day. One of my favorite questions he asked us during interviews with DJs was "What year did you guys graduate high school?" so that he would have 4 years on either side of music he knew he could tap into. Another example of him going above and beyond: when my wife and I were cutting the cake, he ran across the room to ensure we had a napkin since the staff at our venue had forgotten to put one on the table. Not to mention he had the dance floor jam packed the entire evening.

    Every step of the way he was a kind and polished professional. Anyone who is lucky enough to work with him on their wedding day will be left with fantastic memories from the night!

    Brandon~ amazing

    We cannot begin to tell you how much we enjoyed having Brandon DJ our daughter's wedding. He was beyond anything we could have expected. Not just his awesome song choices, but him in general. He is professional but makes you feel like you've known him forever. He helped out with everything. And the best announcement to the bride and groom entering their reception that I've ever heard. He definitely got guests to come out to their shells and have fun. If you don't want "just" a DJ, but an amazing guy and all-around entertainer.........get Brandon to your event!!!

    The best DJ!!!!

    Brandon was our DJ for our wedding this past weekend and we CANNOT say enough good things about him. From our first face time meeting, we knew instantly he would be an amazing party orchestrator with his fun and energetic personality. He was happy to be the voice of the party and make everything between the ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, dance time, and our send off flow perfectly. He worked very well with our caterer and photographer. We cannot thank you brandon enough for making our wedding ABSOLUTELY PERFECT and memorable for us and all of our friends and family. I suggest anyone needing a fun voice of your party and DJ to not hesitate and hire this amazing man!!!! We will cherish you forever.

    Incredible...made our day special and stress free!

    We would highly recommend Brandon. He DJ'd my son's wedding and was amazing. He does so much more than performing as a DJ, he also coordinates so many moments throughout the wedding/evening. He is extremely pleasant, kind, funny and easy to work with. Due to COVID we had to reschedule our wedding date three times. Brandon was so very generous and did not raise his rates due to the 2 year span. He is a wonderful man and a fabulous DJ. You will your money's worth and more. Thank you Brandon for all your hard work, we appreciated it so much.

    Outstanding

    Brandon is professional and friendly. He went above and beyond ensuring our special day was perfect. He took part in some of the preparations and planning, even outside his scope of his role as our DJ. The music was on point with what we had planned, without distortion or connection issues. He made sure the music selection matched with the vibe.
    I would recommend him without hesitation.

    DJ Brandon quite honestly MADE our wedding!

    Being a Blazer Dancer, I knew I needed a DJ that would keep the party going all night - Brandon did just that. Something I appreciate is how well he read the room - during dinner; he played upbeat yet mellow tunes; during the speeches, he added hilarious sound effects that had everyone laughing, and during the reception, his song choices kept everyone dancing!! On top of that, he was incredibly kind and caring - he went above and beyond by getting us drinks during dinner, etc. All in all - a great person and an exceptional DJ. If you want a FUN wedding with a poppin' dance floor - this is your guy. Thank you so much, Brandon, for making our wedding a night to remember!!

    Fantastic DJ for Our Wedding Celebration

    I had experienced Brandon’s DJ skills at a wedding 5 years ago and definitely remember it being a great wedding and active dance floor. Brandon did an amazing job for our reception, he seamlessly navigated having music playing at both our cocktail hour location and then our dinner and dance party in a separate hall. We gave him ideas and talked about the flow of our wedding in a couple of meetings prior to the event and he took general information we gave him and created a masterpiece of a wedding. Music is key in our book, and it was perfect. He was even able to play our obscure request for 60s French pop.
    Not only is he masterful as arranging, but also a great MC and really helped our guests navigate our event.
    We let him choose the final dance song and it was perfect, straight out of the wedding episode from The Office. He just knew us as a couple all from the music ideas we sent him.
    From one couple to another we would absolutely recommend Brandon for your wedding!

    The best DJ ever!!

    I personally think a big part of what makes your wedding fun & memorable is the DJ. We got married in April 2022 & our big priority for our wedding day was making sure everyone had a good time & was on the dance floor! Brandon went above & beyond to make sure we had a good time! Safe to say EVERYONE was on that dance floor!! He was amazing at reading the crowd & his attention to detail was incredible. One thing that struck out to me most was when our guest were giving toast, Brandon would play the most perfect song after each toast was given. His talent is more than what we hoped for. I have nothing but good things to say about Brandon & we are so happy he was there to help celebrate & make our wedding so memorable!!

    It’s just not a wedding without Brandon

    We booked Brandon for our wedding after being to 2 previous weddings where he DJ’d. At each wedding (including ours now), everyone talked about how good the DJ was. In addition, booking him is like having an extra day of coordinator. Brandon is proactive, helpful, and flexible to your needs. Don’t even consider anyone else and boom him. You won’t be disappointed
