    Delightful for Weddings!

    We play here throughout the year. DJ Jay Williams from Eagle Radio 95.9 in Spearfish is a local favorite for weddings. You can do the entire day right there on site, including an outdoor ceremony. And follow up with your reception afterward. Everything flows nicely all day for you and your guests. Very competitive pricing. This is a total home run. - Joey C
