Wedding DJ and Sound at Dollar Lodge (Sun Valley Resort)

In ski season, load-in waits for the hill to clear.

Dollar Lodge is available year round, but during ski season events cannot begin until after 7 PM. Load-in waits for the hill to clear.

That is a real constraint rather than a formality. It means the setup window is short, it happens in the dark and often in the cold, and there is no opportunity to walk the room quietly beforehand. The plan has to be made in advance and executed fast.

It also means a later evening than most weddings, which affects catering, guest travel and how long you actually want the music running.

90 guests, indoor and outdoor, day lodge.

DIY kits from $249 a weekend

A short cold setup window after dark is the hardest version of DIY. If you are set on running your own here, keep the kit small and simple, because there will be no time to troubleshoot. Speaker and wireless mic from $249 Friday to Monday, free pickup in Nampa.
