What we do in Medical Lake
A spa town's lake with an air base next door
Medical Lake took its name from the lake beside it, whose mineral water the Spokane people and early settlers believed could heal. Around the turn of the last century the town drew visitors to its bathhouses and hotels. Eastern State Hospital sits across the water, and Fairchild Air Force Base lies just north.
The town rests on basalt scabland scattered with small lakes and pine, which gives summer gatherings a shoreline setting. With the air base so close, a guest list here may include service members and relatives who live far away, so remote planning helps: you meet your DJ by Google Meet, phone or FaceTime and share song lists in an online portal.
Small towns blend lake gatherings, base friendships and old family ties. Pick the service that fits your event and fill in the details with your DJ.
Wedding DJ & MC
Ceremony microphones for shoreline or garden vows, introductions and toasts handled by your MC, and dancing built from your must-play list.
Party & Event DJ
Hourly bookings for birthdays, reunions, school dances and welcome-home parties, with music drawn from your guests' tastes.
Corporate Event DJ
Staff holiday parties, retirements and office gatherings, with background music, a microphone for speeches and a schedule kept on track.
Color and light
Uplighting on walls or lakeside trees and moving dance-floor light give any room or lawn a lift after sunset.

Customer reviews & pricing
What affects the price
Your Medical Lake quote follows your plan. Every booking is billed by the hour, and corporate events carry a higher hourly rate than weddings and parties. These are the details that matter.
| Job | Typical range |
|---|---|
| Wedding DJ & MC | $300 per hourHours of music, from ceremony sound to the last dance |
| Party & Event DJ | $300 per hourParties, school dances, house shows and after-parties, billed by the hour |
| Corporate Event DJ | $450 per hourCorporate events, billed by the hour |
| Live Music | +$100 per hourAcoustic guitar, piano or vocals, added to a DJ booking for each hour performed |
- How many hours: Share the start time and the last song. A lunchtime retirement party and an evening reception call for different bookings.
- Indoors or by the water: An outdoor setup near the shore needs power within reach and shelter for gear if the wind or rain picks up.
- Event type: Weddings, parties and dances share one hourly rate and company events have a higher one, whether the night centers on vows, dancing or speeches.
- Live music: Acoustic guitar, piano or vocals for the ceremony, cocktail hour or dinner hour add an hourly charge for each hour performed. Lighting is part of what your DJ brings.

Questions we get
Is Medical Lake too far out for a Coeur d'Alene DJ?
No. Medical Lake is part of the regular service area, west of Spokane and a little over an hour from Dark Star's home base. Any travel cost depends on your venue and hours, so ask us with your address and date.
Our family is spread across bases and states. Can we plan remotely?
Yes. Meetings happen by Google Meet, phone or FaceTime, and your song lists live in an online portal that relatives can help fill in. Final details go in through a requests form before the event.
Can you set up for a lakeside gathering?
Yes, with a little planning. Confirm there is power near the DJ spot, a level place for speakers and cover if weather turns, and check whether the site has rules on amplified sound or end times.
Can the music suit both young kids and grandparents?
Your DJ moves between eras and reads who is dancing. Speakers can point away from quieter tables, and single-use earplugs are available for anyone who wants them.
