What we do in Libby
A timber town on the Kootenai River
Libby sits where Libby Creek meets the Kootenai River, between the Cabinet Mountains to the south and the Purcell Mountains to the north, on US Highway Two. Logging and lumber shaped the town, and Kootenai Falls with its swinging bridge, along with Lake Koocanusa behind Libby Dam, draws visitors from across the region.
The drive from Coeur d'Alene heads north through Sandpoint and Bonners Ferry, then east along US Highway Two through the Kootenai River valley, close to three hours in good conditions. Libby runs on Mountain Time, an hour ahead of Coeur d'Alene, and winter snow on the highway can stretch the trip, so set event times with both in mind.
Three services cover most events in Libby. Start with the closest fit and shape the details with your DJ.
Wedding DJ & MC
Ceremony microphones, cocktail and dinner music, an emcee for toasts and dances, and a dance floor led by your song lists.
Party & Event DJ
Birthdays, reunions, graduation parties and school dances by the hour, with music matched to the people who show up.
Corporate Event DJ
Company parties, banquets and fundraisers with quiet dinner sets, a microphone for the program and timely announcements.
Room-changing light
Uplighting along walls or trees and moving dance-floor lighting make a hall, lodge or tent feel ready for a party.
Clean, comfortable sound
Equipment is sanitized between events, and single-use earplugs are on hand for guests who want less volume.

Every one of these is about the crowd: a floor packed in close, a night dance outdoors, a sparkler send-off and a champagne cheer.

- Hours of music: Longer events cost more, whether it is a reception, a dance or a banquet. Share your start and end times.
- Distance and season: Libby is among the longest drives from Coeur d'Alene, and winter roads add time. Your venue address helps plan the trip.
- Space and power: Lodges, halls, riverside lawns and family land differ in outlets and load-in, so tell your DJ what is there.
- Live music hours: Acoustic guitar, piano or vocals for the ceremony, cocktail hour or dinner hour is the one add-on, priced for each hour it plays.

Questions we get
How is travel handled for an event in Libby?
Libby is close to three hours by road from Coeur d'Alene, by way of Sandpoint, Bonners Ferry and US Highway Two. Travel is planned for every date that far out, so ask us about it when you send your venue, date and schedule, and it will be part of your quote.
We live in Libby. What time should we put on the invite?
Use local Mountain Time. Your DJ plans arrival and the run-of-show in Mountain Time as well, and guests driving in from Idaho or eastern Washington should know they lose an hour on the way over.
Can you DJ an outdoor event near the river or up at the lake?
Yes, with power close to the DJ setup and some shelter for the gear. Check any site rules on amplified sound and quiet hours, then share them with your DJ so the speakers and dance floor fit the space.
What about winter events, like a holiday party?
Winter parties work well, with a little extra planning for snow on US Highway Two. Corporate holiday parties are billed by the hour and usually include soft dinner music, a microphone for remarks and dancing if the group wants it.
What won't you bring?
No inflatables, skits, scripted line-dance routines or pre-made playlists. Dark Star focuses on music, hosting and lighting, built from your must-play and do-not-play lists in the online planning portal.
