What we do in Dalton Gardens
Dalton Gardens, a small city that kept its acreage
Dalton Gardens is a small Kootenai County city wedged between Coeur d'Alene and Hayden, about four miles north of Coeur d'Alene and roughly ten minutes by road. Residents incorporated it in nineteen sixty to avoid annexation by its larger neighbor, and lots of at least an acre keep a semi-rural feel, with pastures, farm animals and big gardens close to town.
The area was once known for orchards and produce, and that open space still shapes events here: tents on the lawn, parties beside a barn or shop, and family land with room for a dance floor. Summer evenings are long and green, while winter gatherings tend to move indoors, so tell us early where yours will be.
Three services cover most Dalton Gardens events. Pick the one that sounds like yours, then settle the details with your DJ.
Wedding DJ & MC
Vows carried by wireless microphones, music through cocktails and dinner, an MC for toasts and dances, then dancing to your own song picks.
Party & Event DJ
Birthdays, anniversaries, graduation parties and gatherings in the shop or barn, booked by the hour and built around your guests.
Corporate Event DJ
Team dinners and holiday parties for local businesses, with soft music during the meal, a microphone for remarks and timing that holds.
Lighting for open spaces
Uplighting on trees, fences or barn walls and moving dance-floor lighting once evening settles over the yard.

- Music hours: From the first song to the last, more time means a larger quote. Mention any breaks as well.
- Power and setup on acreage: Open ground may be far from an outlet. Plan for power near the DJ, a level spot and cover for gear.

Questions we get
Is there a travel fee for a Dalton Gardens event?
Dalton Gardens borders Coeur d'Alene, so the drive from the Dark Star base is short. Whether any travel charge applies depends on your property and the hours you book, so ask us when you send the details and it will show up clearly in your quote.
Can you set up on our acreage for a party?
Yes. Pick a level spot within reach of power, or arrange a generator, and think about cover if the weather turns. With neighbors on acre lots, sound carries across open ground, so check any local noise rules and plan the loudest part of the night with them in mind.
Which service works for a small wedding at home?
The Wedding DJ & MC service suits a home wedding of any size. It covers ceremony microphones so everyone hears the vows, music through dinner, an MC for toasts and dances, and a dance floor built from your must-play songs.
Do you DJ corporate events for small businesses?
Yes. The Corporate Event DJ service fits team dinners, client appreciation nights and holiday parties of any size. Expect gentle music while people eat and talk, a microphone for speeches or awards and announcements that keep to the schedule you set.
How do we plan the music?
After you book, you log in to the online planning portal and fill in your must-play and do-not-play songs and the services you want. You meet your DJ again to trade ideas, then send final details through the requests form before the event.
