What we handle
Hometown weddings come with their own puzzles: open lawns, long guest lists of relatives and neighbors and schedules built around family. Your DJ and MC handle these.
Power on family land
Fields and yards rarely have outlets in the right place. Your DJ maps power, cable runs and a covered spot for gear before the day.
Vows heard across the lawn
Wireless microphones for the officiant and the couple let grandparents in the back row hear every promise.
Every generation on the floor
Your lists set the direction. The DJ moves between classics your parents love and the songs your friends request.
A steady host
Your MC keeps the program moving: grand entrance, toasts, parent dances, cake cutting and a last call for the dance floor.
Glow for an evening reception
Uplighting on trees or a barn wall and dance-floor lighting keep the party going once the sun sets behind the hills.
An organized send-off
Your MC lines guests up for the exit so the last moments of the night are as smooth as the first.

What affects the price

| Job | Typical range |
|---|---|

- Setting and power: Family land or a lawn may need longer cable runs, a canopy for gear or a quiet generator arranged by your host.
- Ceremony and reception spots: If vows happen in one place and dancing in another, the DJ may need a second setup and time to move.
- Length of celebration: Share when guests arrive and when the last song should play so music covers every part of the day.
- Live music: Your DJ brings the uplighting and dance-floor lighting. Live guitar, piano or vocals for the ceremony, cocktail hour or dinner adds $100 per hour for each hour performed.

Questions we get
Do we pay extra travel for a Pinehurst wedding?
Pinehurst is about forty minutes from Coeur d'Alene, so the drive is short. Whether travel adds to your total depends on your venue and timeline, so ask us when you request a quote and it will be listed clearly.
Can you play a wedding in our parents' backyard?
Yes. A backyard wedding needs a flat spot for the DJ table, power within reach and a plan for rain or sun. Walk the yard with your family, then share photos or a sketch with your DJ so speakers and lighting land in the right places.
What happens if it rains on our outdoor ceremony?
Have a covered fallback, such as a tent, garage or nearby hall and decide ahead who makes the call. Your DJ protects the equipment and can move the ceremony sound with you as long as there is power where you end up.
How do you keep young kids and grandparents happy at the same reception?
Pace matters. Your DJ starts with songs everyone knows, saves louder sets for later and keeps volume comfortable near the tables. during the first dance gives the youngest guests something to chase.
How do we meet our DJ before booking?
Your first step is a conversation by Google Meet, phone or FaceTime about your plans, venue and taste in music. There is no pressure afterward; you receive what you need to decide and booking happens with a contract and a small down payment.
