JP Entertainment is a wedding DJ and MC team based in Coeur d'Alene, ID, serving couples across North Idaho and Eastern Washington.

Final pricing depends on date, venue, travel, and scope.

The process

Why couples pay for a planning process, not just a playlist.

The thing couples mention most often in reviews isn't the music, it's showing up to the day calm and prepared. That comes from a structured process behind the scenes.

Planning packet

A written packet covering your timeline, must-plays, do-not-plays, and every transition of the day, built before we ever touch a microphone.

Lead-up meetings

One or more planning calls or meetings ahead of your date so your DJ knows your event as well as you do.

Timeline coordination

Ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception mapped to the minute, so transitions happen on cue instead of by guesswork.

Vendor coordination

We work directly with your venue, photographer, and planner ahead of time on load-in, power, and cues.

Backup equipment

Every event travels with backup gear. In 15+ years, JP Entertainment has never canceled an event for equipment reasons.

On the night

Built for the dance floor.

Professional sound, dance floor lighting, a wireless mic for every toast, and a DJ who reads the room. Backup gear rides along to every event.

What couples say.

"AMAZING! The best around no doubt about it. John was so easy to work with! We had him for our wedding, and he set the entire atmosphere beautifully. When I was first planning the wedding, I felt stressed and didn't know how to schedule the day. John helped us BIG TIME coming up with the perfect schedule."

FAQ

Wedding DJ questions we get asked

How much does a wedding DJ cost with JP Entertainment?
JP Entertainment has two wedding DJ packages: Classic with DJ Justin La Torre at $1,995 and Signature with founder John Owens (DJ JP) at $2,895. Both include up to 6 hours, a DJ plus an assistant, two sound setups, planning meetings with John, dance floor lighting with 8 uplights, and no travel fees within 50 miles of Post Falls.
What's included in a JP Entertainment wedding DJ package?
Every package includes up to 6 hours of DJ and MC service, a two-person crew (your DJ plus an assistant), two sound setups, planning meetings with John and our planning packet, dance floor lighting with 8 uplights, and no travel fees within 50 miles of Post Falls. Signature adds moving-head lighting, 4 ft LOVE marquee letters, and handheld party lights.
Can we choose which DJ we get?
Yes. Choose Classic ($1,995) to book DJ Justin La Torre, or Signature ($2,895) to book founder John Owens (DJ JP). Both DJs work from John's planning packet, and John leads the planning meetings either way.
Do you cover both the ceremony and the reception?
Yes. Both packages include two sound setups, so your ceremony and reception are covered. If you need a third space, like cocktail hour in a separate room, a third setup is $450.
Will our DJ MC the wedding, or just play music?
Your DJ is also your MC, handling announcements, introductions, and microphones for your officiant and toasts. John Owens MCs every Signature wedding, and DJ Justin MCs Classic weddings using the same planning process John built.
Can we request specific songs, and can we ban songs we don't want?
Yes. We build your playlist from your must-plays and favorites, and we keep a do-not-play list for anything you want to avoid. Guests can also make requests the night of, and your DJ filters those against your list.
How far in advance should we book our wedding DJ?
Most couples book JP Entertainment 6 to 12 months before their wedding date. May through October weekends fill first, so reach out as soon as you have a venue and date.
What happens if your equipment fails during our wedding?
We bring backup equipment to every event. In 15+ years, JP Entertainment has never canceled an event for equipment reasons.
How much space and power does a DJ setup need?
A DJ setup needs an area for speakers, a table, and lighting, plus standard power outlets nearby. We coordinate the exact space and power needs directly with your venue during planning.
Do you travel outside Coeur d'Alene for weddings?
Yes. There are no travel fees within 50 miles of Post Falls. We go anywhere within about two hours of Post Falls, from Spokane, Deer Park, and Newport to Sandpoint, Priest Lake, the Silver Valley, and the Palouse, and travel beyond 50 miles is a custom quote.
