What we handle
Ritzville weddings tend to lean on family farms, heritage halls and big extended families. Here is how your DJ and MC fit in.
A ceremony heard in open country
Prairie wind can swallow quiet voices. Wireless microphones for the officiant and the couple keep vows audible to everyone seated.
MC for a big family
Your MC brings in the wedding party, sets up the toasts, cues the first dance and parent dances and calls guests together for the cake.
Songs across the generations
Grandparents' favorites, your parents' wedding song and the hits from your own school years can all sit on the must-play list.
Nothing you dread
Songs on your do-not-play list never come on. There are no skits, no electric slide routines and no pre-built playlist.
Glow for old brick and barn beams
Uplighting warms historic brick or barn timber and dance-floor lighting draws people in once the summer sun finally sets.
Live music options
Acoustic guitar, piano and/or vocals can play your ceremony, processional or cocktail hour. Choose how many hours you want live music for.

- Ceremony-to-last-dance hours: Share the full timeline: arrival, vows, dinner, dancing and the send-off, plus any gap between ceremony and reception.
- Field, farm or downtown hall: Outdoor vows need their own sound, power and shelter; a downtown hall may have load-in rules to follow.

Questions we get
What does travel to Ritzville look like for our wedding?
Ritzville sits southwest of Coeur d'Alene, about an hour and three quarters by interstate. Travel depends on the venue and how long the day runs, so ask us with your address and timeline for a firm answer.
Summer heat out here is serious. How do we plan an outdoor ceremony?
Aim for a late-day ceremony when the heat eases, find shade for guests and gear and keep water handy. Wind is common on open ground, so wireless microphones help vows reach the back rows.
Can the music handle a big extended-family crowd?
Yes. Your must-play list sets the anchors and your DJ watches the floor and shifts between eras so cousins, parents and grandparents all get songs they know.
Many guests are driving in from Spokane and the Tri-Cities. Any timing tips?
Allow for slow stretches and roadwork in the busy months. Build some cushion before the ceremony and share the timeline in the planning portal so your DJ can pace the cocktail hour.
What happens between booking and the wedding day?
You meet your DJ by Google Meet, phone or FaceTime, share the feel you want, fill in must-play and do-not-play songs in the online portal and send last details through a requests form. Meet, Dream, Plan and Create.
