What we do in Pinehurst
A neighborhood town near the mouth of Pine Creek
Pinehurst is the first Silver Valley city you reach driving east, near where Pine Creek meets the South Fork of the Coeur d'Alene River. It took its name from a stand of pines, grew alongside the Pine Creek mining district and incorporated later than most valley towns. It is known as the Walking City for sidewalks that link to the Trail of the Coeur d'Alenes.
Most events here stay close to home: graduation parties in the yard, family reunions at a park shelter, anniversary dinners at the golf clubhouse and weddings on family land. Dark Star Entertainment plans them with you by Google Meet, phone or FaceTime and brings sound and lighting sized for the space.
Small-town gatherings still need the right fit. Start with the service that matches your guest list and schedule.
Wedding DJ & MC
Ceremony microphones, a host for introductions and toasts, and a reception mix pulled from the songs you and your partner choose.
Party & Event DJ
Graduation parties, milestone birthdays, reunions and school dances, billed by the hour and shaped by who is coming.
Corporate Event DJ
Staff appreciation nights and holiday dinners for local employers, with soft background music, a microphone for speakers and a dance set if wanted.
Outdoor-ready setup
Park shelters and backyards need power and a dry spot for gear. Your DJ plans cords, cover and speaker placement around the space.
Live music for family moments
Acoustic guitar, piano or vocals can join the ceremony, cocktail hour or dinner hour, billed for each hour it is performed.

- Music hours: A backyard party that runs into the night costs more than a short reunion set. Share when the music should start and stop.
- Indoor or outdoor: Outdoor setups may need extra cable, a canopy for gear and a weather plan.
- 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.
- Size of the crowd: A bigger crowd spread across a park lawn may need more speakers so the music reaches everyone.

Questions we get
Do you charge travel to come out to Pinehurst?
Pinehurst is roughly forty minutes from our Coeur d'Alene home base, one of the closer towns in the Silver Valley. Any travel charge depends on the venue and hours, so ask us when you share your details and it will appear plainly in your quote.
Can you DJ a reunion at a park picnic shelter?
Yes. Check with the park about reservations, sound rules and outlets near the shelter. Your DJ brings what is needed to fill an open-air space and keeps volume comfortable for families with children and older relatives.
Is a graduation party a good fit for hourly booking?
Yes. A graduation party fits the Party & Event DJ service, billed by the hour. The graduate can build a must-play list while parents add a do-not-play list, and the DJ keeps the music fun for classmates and grandparents alike.
Will the music bother the neighbors at a backyard party?
Speakers can be aimed away from nearby houses, and your DJ can keep volume moderate as the evening goes on. Let your neighbors know the plan ahead of time and ask your DJ to wind down by whatever time you agree on.
What about late-summer heat or wildfire smoke?
Some summer afternoons in the valley turn hot or smoky. Plan shade for guests and the DJ table, keep an indoor backup in mind and talk through timing with your DJ so the dancing lands in the cooler evening.
