What we handle
Weddings in a small river town are personal and often homemade. Here is where your DJ and MC make the biggest difference.
Ceremony sound on the bank
Wireless microphones for the officiant and couple keep vows clear over breeze and current.
Timing a longer drive
Your DJ leaves room for the road from Coeur d'Alene and arrives early, so setup is finished before guests show up.
A host who knows the program
Your MC handles the grand entrance, toasts, first dance, parent dances, bouquet and garter if you want them and the final song.
Country and city guests together
Mix classic country, old rock and current hits from your lists. Your DJ watches the floor and blends them as the night goes.
Light for a hall or shop
Uplighting and dance-floor lighting can transform a community hall, lodge or cleaned-out family shop into a reception room.
Live music for ceremony or cocktail hour
Acoustic guitar, piano and/or vocals can play your ceremony, processional or cocktail hour. Choose how many hours you want live music for.

Questions we get
What does travel to a St. Maries wedding cost?
St. Maries is about an hour and a quarter by road from Coeur d'Alene. The travel portion depends on your venue, date and hours, so ask us when you request your quote and it will be listed openly, with no hidden fees.
Can we marry on the riverbank and dance in a hall?
Yes. Two locations mean two setups or a move between them. Share both places early and your DJ will plan the ceremony sound, breakdown and reception setup so music is playing as guests arrive at the hall.
What about spring rain or a chilly fall evening?
Spring storms and cool fall nights are part of planning here. Keep a covered option for the ceremony and an indoor space for dancing. Your DJ protects the gear and adapts quickly if you move inside.
Our families love country music, but our friends want hits. Can you blend both?
Yes. Put both on your must-play list and anything off-limits on the do-not-play list. Your DJ reads the floor and moves between styles, so every crowd gets its moment.
How do we book and hold our date?
After your first call with your DJ, you get pricing and what's included. To lock in the date, sign the contract, make a small down payment and send your initial requests, then plan the rest in the online portal.
