What we handle
Parties that follow the campus calendar
In Pullman, the party calendar tracks Washington State University. Spring commencement brings families into town for celebrations, fall brings homecoming and alumni weekends, and winter break empties campus while local families host holiday gatherings. Each calls for a different pace of music.
Booking by the hour means the music matches the occasion. A brunch open house might need a short, mellow set, while a student formal wants energy to the final minute. Your DJ helps you size it.
Here are the Pullman and Whitman County gatherings where an hourly DJ with sound and lights changes the night most.
Commencement weekend parties
Toast the graduate with speeches from relatives, songs from their years in school and enough light to turn a rented room into a dance floor.
Club and Greek formals
Student groups get dance-floor lighting, a DJ who follows campus rules on volume and lyrics, and a skip list set by organizers.
Reunions for alumni and families
Music from the decades your guests remember, played at a level that still lets old friends catch up between songs.
Milestone birthdays and anniversaries
Open with the honoree's favorites, layer in what the room asks for and keep the floor moving into the evening.
Summer backyard and farm parties
Outdoor parties near town need power within reach and a weather plan, so check outlets and shelter with the property owner.
Lights without the gimmicks
Uplighting and dance-floor lighting from your DJ, and never inflatables, skits or line-dance routines.

What affects the price
Pullman parties are billed by the hour, and each quote reflects the plan you share. These are the details worth having ready.
| Job | Typical range |
|---|---|
| Party & Event DJ | $300 per hourParties, school dances, house shows and after-parties, billed by the hour |
- Length of the party: An open house and a late formal need very different amounts of DJ time; note arrival and last-song times.
- Busy weekends: Commencement and home game weekends fill up around town, so earlier requests leave more options open.
- Indoor or outdoor: A backyard or field needs reachable power and cover for the gear, which changes the setup.
- Live music: Acoustic guitar, piano or vocals for a cocktail or dinner hour is the only add-on, billed for each hour performed.
- Getting there: Pullman is a little over two hours from Coeur d'Alene, and your address helps plan the drive and setup time.

Questions we get
Can you DJ a commencement party for a Washington State grad?
Yes. A graduation party books as a Party & Event DJ, billed by the hour. Fill the request list with songs from the grad's college years, add family favorites, and ask for a microphone so relatives can share a few words.
What does a DJ bring to a student organization formal?
Sound sized for the room, dance-floor lighting and a DJ who works within whatever volume and lyric rules the university or venue sets. Organizers fill in the do-not-play list, and the DJ keeps the floor full inside those limits.
Is there a travel charge for parties in Pullman?
Pullman is about seventy miles south of Coeur d'Alene, so travel is built into every party booked there. The amount depends on your date, venue and hours. Ask us for a quote and include your address so the drive is counted from the start.
How many hours of DJ time does a reunion need?
Think about the arc of the evening. A reunion opens with catch-up conversation, so plan softer music early and save the dancing for later. If your venue caps amplified sound at a set hour, work backward from that cutoff.
Can we book a DJ for a holiday party over winter break?
Yes. Holiday parties for families, churches or community groups book as Party & Event DJ service. Winter roads can slow the drive down from the north, so share timing early and name a venue contact for load-in.
