Wedding DJ Review

We had the absolute pleasure of having Nate as our DJ for the wedding. Nate was extremely professional and excited about making our special day perfect since the beginning.
One of the standout qualities of Nate was his incredible flexibility when it came to our song requests. We had a diverse range of musical tastes, and Nate handled it all with ease. Whether it was classic rock, pop hits, or some Chinese songs from "Crazy Rich Asian" he was more than willing to accommodate our preferences and seamlessly integrate them into his set.
During the planning process, we select our favorite songs on the TerraceDJ client portal and Nate made sure to include every single one. He will also go over the song list through phone calls and provide valuable suggestions to the shecdule. On the day of the wedding, he read the crowd perfectly, switching up the music to match the energy in the room.Nate was also professional on setting the equipment at the designated location and get everything ready to before the guests started arriving.
Our guests were raving about how much fun they had at wedding and a big part of that is thanks to Nate. If you're looking for a DJ who is not only attentive but also incredibly flexible and accommodating with song requests, DJ Nate is your guy. We highly recommend him to anyone looking to have an unforgettable wedding celebration!

Hire DJ Nate for the Best Party of Your Lives!!

My husband and I hired DJ Nate for our wedding after reading all the 5-star reviews on WeddingWire, and we are so thankful we did because he was incredible to work with from start to finish!! We had several planning calls with DJ Nate leading up to the wedding, and his attentive, calming presence completely put us at ease and made us feel prepared for our big day. He took the time to understand what kind of music we wanted for our wedding ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception, and he was able to accommodate all of our special music requests. On our wedding day, DJ Nate kept the dance party going all night long; so many of our guests commented on how much they enjoyed dancing the night away! We would highly recommend hiring DJ Nate for the best party of your lives!!

Highly Recommend

We had a wonderful experience working with DJ Nate for our wedding. He's professional, flexible, easy to work with, and brings a wealth of experience and expertise. We had some specific requests wanting to incorporate music from different cultures, and he did an amazing job executing on our vision. The dance floor was the place to be! We had multiple guests tell us how much fun they had dancing and that the music mix was great.

Eclectic Playlist

My husband and I were looking for a DJ that was more lowkey (dramatic announcements/hypeman is not our vibe) and that could play an eclectic mix of music (Spanish, classic wedding, pop, indie, alt rock) and Nate from Terrace DJ was the perfect choice! We were able to make a long list of songs we'd like to hear at the wedding, and Nate worked with us to create a timeline for the day of. He was very personable and easy to work woth, and things went seamlessly on our wedding day. We initially told him we didn't want guests to make requests, but changed our minds halfway through the reception and he was more than accomodating. Even when guests asked for songs he wasn't familiar with and didn't have right away, he made it work! He also provided mics and a speaker for our ceremony, as well as uplighting for the reception. Could not have asked for a better DJ and would recommend him without hesitation. Thanks for supplying the perfect tunes for our special day!!

The best!!

DJ Nate was the perfect addition to our wedding, he was easy to communicate with, super helpful in our planning and handled everything with the venue so well, we didn’t have to worry at all. DJ Nate even coordinated with a singer we brought in for our dinner entertainment and made sure she was all set and ready to go. On the big day everything went perfectly and the dance floor was on fire!! He kept the energy high without any corny antics, we would highly recommend DJ Nate, 10/10!!

Fantastic DJ!

We were looking for a "real" DJ for our wedding in Harrisburg (as opposed to a "wedding" DJ), and DJ Nate delivered! He was easy to work with, understood what we were looking for, and made it happen.

We even had some fairly niche requests (early 00's emo, techno, some classic German party hits), and he worked those all seamlessly into the set. Our friends and family had a blast and still talk about it weeks later.

His prices were fair and a great value. Highly recommend DJ Nate!

Fantastic DJ!!

DJ Nate was fantastic - so easy to work with. We had an outdoor wedding and Nate was great with giving us feedback and honest opinions on what he thought would work best. Also our music choices are all over the place and somehow DJ Nate figured out how to piece all our favorite songs together throughout the night. We have gotten multiple comments since our wedding about how great our DJ was! We are so happy our original DJ cancelled on us and we got to work with Nate. Book him - you will be so happy you did!!

Excellent in Every Way!

DJ Nate was fantastic - booking him as our wedding DJ was one of our best planning decisions! He is professional, friendly, and really went the extra mile to make sure he understood my vision for the music and announcements (he even worked with me to edit some specific songs down to the minute!). The day of the wedding, he arrived to the venue with time to make sure the ceremony and reception areas had just the right sound set-up, handled everything flawlessly, helped keep the wedding party on-task for introductions and speeches, helped organize guests for dinner and dessert, and was just an all-around excellent wedding vendor. Thank you so much DJ Nate!

Non-stop party!

I live in the UK with my British partner, but we planned to get married in my home state of PA. When we decided on the Philadelphia area, I knew I wanted a DJ who would be happy to blend my partner's favourite, more British songs with classics that everyone loves. Nate is the only DJ I interviewed who openly welcomed the challenge and allowed us the opportunity to customise a playlist from both his existing library and as many purchased songs as we wished. This meant we could include my now-husband's favourites, which aren't always as well-known in the US. Though I didn't have many questions leading up to the event, when I did, Nate was extremely responsive and more than happy to help. As I was not able to meet in person, he worked around the time difference to call me and review plans. We wanted a dance floor that was never empty, and no slower songs or requests from guests. Honestly, there was so much for everyone to enjoy that I don't think anyone could think of anything to request! He perfectly mixed our varied playlist to create 'sections' that appealed to different generations, so the floor truly was always pretty packed. I've had so many compliments on the music since the wedding! I truly can't thank Nate enough for bringing that energy to our day and ensuring everyone enjoyed themselves so much. He was a pleasure to work with and really up for anything we threw at him.

excellent wedding DJ

DJ Nate was absolutely incredible, I can't say enough good things! Responded very fast to questions in the months, weeks, and days leading up to our wedding, and had a very easy-to-use portal to help with song selection. DJ Nate was absolutely wonderful day-of with so many last minute changes in weather, the ceremony, and other set up that needed to be adjusted quickly. Our dance floor was packed and had awesome energy all night! Highly, highly recommend booking Terrace DJ for your wedding!

Hire DJ Nate!!

We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ than DJ Nate! We were specifically looking for someone who wasn’t your typical cheesy wedding DJ, and Nate far surpassed our expectations. He kept the energy high and the event flowing all night without interrupting anything or being too invasive. He worked with the playlists and inspirations we gave him but built off them to include songs I meant to include on my playlist but forgot! He totally knew our vibe and read our minds. He was also super helpful in the lead-up to the wedding and his grounded demeanor was much appreciated amidst all the stress of wedding planning. We seriously can’t thank him enough and would definitely recommend him to other couples!

Top Notch!

Can't say enough great things about Terrace DJ. Professionalism and quality all the way. Even from the planning stage right up until the last song of the night, Terrace DJ did not miss a beat (no pun intended) They couldn't have been easier to work with. It's like they just knew what we wanted. They read the room, kept the crowd moving and our guests didn't leave the dance floor. A+ for Terrace DJ. Highly recommend!

DJ Nate- What a Guy!

We are so grateful our band fell through so that we could experience the magic of DJ Nate of Terrace DJ! He is truly such a genuine and thoughtful man. DJ Nate is not your typical wedding DJ in the best ways possible- he is thoughtful, not corny, and knows how to read the room and match the vibes of the dance floor and the crowd. He was also SO helpful during our unique Quaker ceremony by providing COVID safe microphone use to our guests. We can't wait for our next excuse to hire DJ Nate!

Nate was incredibly professional and helpful leading up to our wedding and was very responsive. On the day of the wedding, he was prompt, knew exactly what he was doing, had great volume for the music, was very professional, and kind. He had the dance floor packed the whole time and was great to work with. We highly recommend Nate!

An Incredible Experience

We worked with Terrace DJ for our wedding on 9-25-21. The entire experience was easy and painless, from booking & planning, to the incredible entertainment during our ceremony and reception.

DJ Nate was an absolute joy to work with. He was prompt and responsive, professional and helpful, and super flexible. His music and lighting were perfect, and he did an amazing job acting as MC. We threw a few curveballs at him last minute and he handled it flawlessly.

We had a planning phone call one week before the wedding to go over the details, with a few follow-ups to iron out kinks, and then everything was handled for us after that.

He took care of the sound and music for our ceremony as well as the reception. His music was great and all of our guests had a blast.

The music/entertainment is the most critical aspect of a successful event, and Terrace DJ really came through for us. They came to us highly recommended, and we too would highly recommend them to anyone looking to throw an event.

Perfect and on point, from start to finish

When our wedding had to be canceled due to Covid in 2020, DJ Nate was incredibly helpful and considerate with the entire process of rescheduling. He accommodated all our music requests, and even those of our guests and was able to put together a fantastic Playlist that several people asked us to send to them after the wedding!

A wonderful DJ for our non-traditional tastes!

We had a great experience with Terrace DJ! From the getgo he was responsive, kind, flexible and understanding of our idiosyncratic music tastes and requests. As a DJ at our wedding he supported and encouraged a great time without being too much of a hype-man, which was absolutely the vibe we were going for! Our guests had a blast on the dance floor and we would absolutely recommend Terrace DJ to anyone who wants a laid-back attentive DJ with great alternative music tastes!

Best. Dj. Ever.

Picking a dj for our wedding was the most challenging part of wedding planning because music means so much to my husband and me, and our love of dance music brought us together. We were looking for a dj to play all the techno and house music we love, but also cater to the more traditional tastes of our family. DJ Terrace was the PERFECT choice for us. DJ Nate heard us and brought our vision to life and helped us throw the best dance party (I mean wedding) ever.

Thank you DJ Nate!

We hired the TerraceDJ team pretty last minute after an issue with our first DJ. Nate was wonderful, accommodating and playing our VERY ecclectic tastes in music, doing an extended hora for us, and being willing to roll with the punches at our casual wedding. The TerraceDJ back end system is great, as it let us upload our full day of schedule and all of our must have music requests!

best dj around!

First and foremost ... I can not recommend DJ Nate enough! Given the absolute insanity that has been planning, re-planning and re-planning again a wedding in 2020... his flexibility and easygoing nature was exactly what we needed (and pricing is MORE than fair based on my convos with other DJs over the past year!) I contacted him pretty late in the game, when we realized we really DID need a DJ for our minimony. He was prompt, professional and understanding about the unique situation this year has put couples in.

We sent him a giant spotify playlist with a VERY eclectic array of songs that we had put together ourselves (back when we were negligently going to try to do it all on our own). He was not only willing, but excited to be introduced to our mix of country, power metal and action movie theme songs.

Most impressively... he worked our entire array into the evening! I don't know how you actually effectively jump around that mix of musical types, but he managed to do it. He even played my bridesmaid's favorite song twice since one of them ran to the bathroom the first time around.

We are so grateful to have chosen DJ Nate, he truly was one of the best decisions we made!

Outstanding DJ - Best Value Available

We had an outstanding experience with DJ Nate and we would recommend him to anyone. He offers terrific service at a reasonable price, so if you want a DJ who will maximize your value then look no further.

Our wedding had about 40 guests with an outdoor ceremony and indoor reception. Nate coordinated with us over the phone and adhered to every song we provided, playing the right song at the right time. Many of our guests complimented us on the music afterwards. He arrived at 8 am to set up at both locations, which he was very gracious about (other DJs wanted to charge us double or hire a second DJ), and stayed until the reception concluded at 3 pm. DJ Nate was professional, fun, reliable, responsive, and a choice that we are so glad we made. In other words, he is everything one could want in a DJ and you cannot go wrong with him.

Easy to Work with Change Until the Last Minute

Terrace DJ was the best DJ we could hope for to preside over our wedding. He was very easy to work with and was able to round out a few very complete different music genres into a perfect playlist for the evening. Also, he has a Request by Text system for our current social distance situation and it worked out perfectly, allowing people to request the songs they want without needing to get up from their table. He was very nice and was able to get any song we asked for and met every request we had prior to the wedding. I couldn't have asked for anything better.

Easy to work with and fair price

DJ Nate is professional, but laid back and receptive. I know wedding planning can be a lot, but he really tries to listen to what you and your significant other want out of his services. His website is super helpful in gathering a list of up to a 100 songs that you wish to play at your wedding. Also, he can take requests from your guests with a specialized link that you can look through and add to your overall list for the big day. He plays what you want, which was huge for us. I have heard from other people that some DJ's control the music without listening to the couples personal styles or preferences. DJ Nate told us upfront that he was going to work with us to give us what we wanted, which was reassuring. He gave us extra options to add to our total package, but was not pushy about them. He definitely made us feel at ease with one of the most important parts of our wedding. He also communicated how he will make all the music flow so that we knew what we could look forward to. He chose the overall order of songs being played for us and did a fantastic job. A majority of our guests (young and old) commented on how well he did all night. Overall, price was extremely reasonable and affordable, he is easy to work with and laid back, music selection is vast and even if you have specific requests, he will find them for you. Lastly, He made sure to get exact times for when certain songs needed to be played and for how long. He made sure to write down every detail that needed to be covered for the big day and delivered on everything he promised. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for a great DJ. Thanks again DJ Nate!

Unique DJ Who Provides Everything You Want (And Leaves Out What You Hate!)

DJ Nate was everything I had hoped for in a DJ - while I knew I wanted to have a DJ for our wedding, I was apprehensive of having someone who focused on playing classic wedding songs, fulfilling guest song requests, and loved hearing their own voice on the mic. But none of those fears came to life with Nate: he met my husband and I in-person to get a feel for our musical tastes, the flow we imagined for the entire night, and the vibe we were looking for, and when the day came he hit everything spot on. I struggled to get off the dance floor to say hi to guests because every single song he played was right up my alley - I felt like he completely heard me and the type of music I wanted and totally delivered (I did not provide him with an exact playlist, but rather a list of artists and songs we loved along with a few "must-plays" and of course some "do not plays"). Lastly, Nate was incredibly responsive to emails and phone calls during the entire process leading up to our wedding, and was very professional throughout the entire night. I cannot recommend him enough!

Super nice, responsive, thoughtful

Had a great experience with Nate! The wedding was just great--he kept people dancing on a hot night, made a great flow from our music requests (even the Hamilton remixes which must've seemed kind of weird), and was a nice friendly, non-intrusive presence on the mic. We booked him for ceremony sound as well which was a challenging setup, off in the woods with no power; I saw him working VERY hard to get everything set up, and everything sounded just great. And he was just so wonderful to work with through the planning process too--we were planning a wedding from across the country so we could only talk on the phone at weird hours, and we made some changes to the wedding time, and he cheerfully worked around our schedules. Such a smooth, pleasant process throughout. Hire him, he's great!

10/10 highly recommend!!

From the moment we booked Nate for our wedding, working with him went perfectly. The DJ was one of the most important wedding day details for us - we love good music across many genres, our guests love to sing and dance, and we did NOT want the stereotypical/cheesy wedding DJ. Nate was EXACTLY as we hoped. His music selection was great, the dance floor had great energy. He assisted with the flow of the night through announcements, but there was absolutely no cheesy MC'ing. I can't say enough how much Nate paid attention to our personal requests, and fully thought out every detail. Nate also did the audio set up for our ceremony, and even went the extra mile on researching the ceremony area to have the optimal speaker positions so they were not intrusive in pictures. Bottom line - Nate made our wedding night the party we always dreamed of. 10/10 highly recommend!!

The best DJ around!!!!

DJ Nate was the perfect DJ for our recent wedding. Starting from the beginning during our introductory call, we knew we'd be in good hands. He took lots of time to answer all of our questions and was later very prompt answering emails where we had more questions. We had a great call a few weeks before the wedding that put my husband and I at total ease!

The wedding went off without a hitch largely thanks to DJ Nate. The music was perfect--exactly what we asked for. The ceremony was perfect with the mics he provided and during cocktail hour and the reception the music continued to be amazing! If you want a DJ who will work with you to do exactly what YOU want, DJ Nate is your man. I cannot say enough wonderful things about working with him and the job he did at our wedding to make it so unforgettable!!!

Highly recommended

DJ Nate was perfect as our wedding DJ! Communication with him was very easy, he always acted very professionally, and his prices were very reasonable. We were able to put together a list of songs we had to hear during our reception, and also a list of songs we absolutely didn't want to hear (Macarena, The Electric Slide, etc.) At the reception, he did a perfect job of reading the crowd to mix together the songs we requested with his own choices to keep the party going. We would 10/10 recommend him for your wedding!

A joy to work with nate!

I highly recommend Nate from TerraceDJ! The entry, cocktail hour, dinner, and reception dance sets were all truly perfect. He even worked with us to create some custom mixed tracks that were amazing! We really could not be happier. The songs, sound quality, volume, and extra lights were on point. He was dream to work with. We gave some really detailed lists, notes and song suggestions via Google Docs and he diligently commented on and helped us create the wedding music and ambiance that we wanted. He gave great professional feedback but allowed us to set the track lists as much as we wanted. This does not happen with all DJ's as many like to take control of all the music. Nate was very collaborative and let us drive the ship as much as we were comfortable. BUT we couldn't have done it without his help, song editing, and creative input. THANK YOU! We have nothing negative to say and are happy to be able to support him with a 5 star review.

Great DJ - Great value

DJ Nate was awesome! He was super helpful in sussing out exactly what we wanted, and he listened to our vibe and what we were going for. He wasn't hokey or cheesy, which was important to us, and he didn't budge when bucked some trends and banned certain songs from our reception. Exactly what we were looking for in a DJ!

Awesome Experience

DJ Nate was by far the most friendly and professional DJ that we spoke to during our search for our wedding. He's extremely organized and very experienced. After our initial phone call, our fears were laid to rest and we couldn't have been happier with our experience. DJ Nate is a great listener and took a variety of song requests including songs that contemporary, hip-hop, and even some that were in Chinese. He has an extensive list of songs for you to choose from to put together you perfect playlist. Ahead of the wedding, he went through our timeline with us along with suggestions on timing and songs. He also made sure to pronounce everyone's names correctly and some of those names were tougher to pronounce in Chinese and Japanese.

I'd definitely recommend DJ Nate to anyone who wants a fuss-free night of partying and dancing!

Book dj nate now

I don't know where to begin! First and foremost, book DJ Nate for your wedding ASAP! My fiancé(now husband) and I were looking for a DJ that was not your typical, "gaudy, corny, and obnoxious" wedding DJs these days. He was professional, organized, accommodating, and easy to talk to.

Our first initial "meet-up" was through the phone. He listened to all our suggestions and helped plan our reception timeline to the T. His recommendations were spot on when we were unsure of things. His website was also easy to use. It helped us to start up the wedding reception program, add songs we loved( and hated lol), and everything else you can think of while planning the reception program. He was also very prompt with answering back emails and phone calls. He even took his time to ask us how to properly pronounce ALL the bridal entourage's full names(Filipino last names are a little tricky when it comes to proper pronunciation, and he nailed it during the reception!). Guests came up to me and said his voice was perfect! They liked how HE WAS NOT obnoxiously screaming through the mic to hype up the crowd. He let his music do the "talking."

My husband and I danced the night away. Our dance floor was full the entire time, and this is not an exaggeration. Our full wedding video without a doubt showed how everyone was on the dance floor enjoying themselves. We are VERY PICKY with our music, and DJ Nate literally played all the songs we wanted. DJ Nate did an absolute amazing job with our reception music. Seriously guys, book him for your wedding/event. We cannot recommend DJ Nate from Terrace DJ enough. THANK YOU, THANK YOU NATE!

DJ Nate was the BEST DJ ever. He was so flexible and accommodating with last minute changes and he stayed professional and attentive the entire time we worked with him. At some point he was receiving input from myself, my husband, and my mother-in-law, and he managed to meet everyone's expectations while navigating a lot of different opinions. He also showed up early to our wedding to make sure he was ready on time. DJ Nate played the songs that we requested and also played songs that got people on the dance floor. Not to mention, he was affordable! I would highly recommend him, and you should totally book him!

We found Nate via a wedding blog for non-cheesy DJ's. Nate had a nice website with mixes for house music, and we found a good pick. Nate is really flexible, easy to work with, and an overall nice guy. We have similar music tastes, which made the work really easy. Nate was superbly prepared with power, mics, speakers, etc. and we couldn't ask for more. Nate paired with my brother-in-law to do an acoustic guitar set and we were really pleased how that turned out. Nate was a great price and we would recommend him for any wedding. His lighting package was also nice. Payment was easy. Nate also can read a crowd well, and got everybody dancing the entire night. We couldn't be happier how that turned out.

We planned our wedding from abroad and were initially worried about how communication would be working with our vendors but from the first contact with Nate our worries were brushed aside! Nate was super quick to respond to all (there were many) of our questions and at the same time was super professional making sure to ask us all the right questions to be sure we were on the same page. When we finally landed in Philly, Nate went out of his way to make sure he met with us and see the space before the big day. During the planning process he guided us and took all of our wishes to heart and was able to find every song we requested--even the ones in Swedish! On the wedding day he made sure the right music was being played at the right times, took extra care to pronounce everyone's names correctly, and not take up any time on the mic (besides necessary announcements, of course). All of these things combined with the planning on Nate's side made it to be an amazing night!! We are so so pleased with our experience with Nate and highly recommend him! If you have the opportunity, book Terrace DJ for your wedding or any special event, you will be glad you did!!

We are so glad we chose Terrace DJ to DJ our Material Culture wedding this April! Nate was so easy to work with. My fiance and I are very particular about the music we wanted played at our wedding and like most other couples on here, wanted a DJ who could create a playlist which reflected our individuality and specific tastes. We felt confident from the first consultation at a local bar that Nate would be able to segue from 60's soul to indie rock to new wave and current dance music in a way which felt organic and seamless. At every step of the planning process he remained friendly, calm, and professional. The rates were transparent and completely reasonable and the DJ Intelligence software was fun and easy to use and alleviated any fears we had about weird requests or cheesy wedding dance songs creeping into the mix. He even downloaded and purchased songs we requested which weren't in his database. When the classical guitarist we had planned on having play during the ceremony canceled at the very last minute DJ Nate calmly assured us that it wouldn't be a problem and was able to take over without a hitch. His presence and announcements during the wedding were calm and assured and completely professional ... no wedding cheese to be found. The entire process couldn't have been smoother and best of all our friends and family stayed on the dance floor the entire night! Would wholeheartedly recommend Terrace DJs and DJ Nate to any couple, rest assured you will be in the best of hands.

Nate was the perfect DJ for our outdoor September wedding. From the very beginning he was very professional, accommodating, and detail oriented. I never had to mention anything twice, which is a lifesaver when you are working with so many people to coordinate your own wedding!
He arrived on time on the day of, coming early to check out the space-- making sure he had adequate equipment, etc. His equipment is also aesthetically pleasing so it blends into the dance floor area. A few days before, he even asked about the wedding colors so he could dress in appropriate attire. A thoughtful detail that makes a difference for me! He even offered to help with set up since he arrived early! I was not good at picking upbeat music, so he offered suggestions and they were well received with our crowd! Music is important--it adds so much to the wedding celebratory atmosphere, and so I am very grateful to DJ Nate for providing that aspect for us. I highly recommend DJ Nate/ Terrace DJ for your event! --Jes & Brian

Working with Terrace DJ/Nate for our wedding could not have been a better process. It was clear from our very first conversation over the phone (Nate's responses over email are prompt too!) that he was our guy. Its very clear that Nate has tons and tons of experience when speaking with him, but despite having this background, he was absolutely flexible and willing to make our day special and unique to us, not just a run-of-the-mill wedding.

Not only did Nate provide an amazing party and dance experience during our reception (the music was so good, our guests asked for the playlist at the end of the night!), but he also aided in providing audio support during our ceremony and music during our cocktail hour as well.

Having him on board for the whole day was a relief, because he had spent plenty of time with us going over the big picture stuff, as well as the details. He knew exactly what we were looking for, and if something went off-book, he could anticipate what my fiance and I were hoping for.

Folks, if you're fretting over a choosing a DJ, you can stop. Terrace DJ is it, trust me.

Terrace DJ was one of the first vendors we hired. We didn't want a typical run-of-the-mill cheesy wedding DJ, and DJ Nate was exactly what we were looking for! After our initial conversation, it was clear that DJ Nate was super professional and understood our taste in music. DJ Nate was so accommodating and went out of his way to read through our venue contract and call our wedding coordinator about the onsite sound system to make sure everything was set for our big day. He has a large library of music, and was willing to obtain any songs that he didn't already have. He met up with us prior to our wedding to run through all of the details, and he even made sure he knew how to pronounce the names of everyone in our wedding party, which was a little thing, but meant a lot to us. At the wedding, DJ Nate read the crowd well and got everyone up and dancing, while still adhering to our musical tastes. He was calm and collected when things didn't go exactly as planned (we forgot to do the champagne toast...oops) and kept the night moving along. We got a bunch of compliments on the music at our wedding and are so thankful that we chose Terrace DJ!

My wife and I got married in June, and we were so grateful to have DJ Nate on our team! He delivers exactly what he promises - a great, completely customized experience with very little schticky DJ stuff. This was also the must chill & fun part of wedding planning for us. Terrace DJ has an online system where you can just plug in the songs you want and sort them into must play, songs we like, and songs we don't want categories. This allowed us to dance to all the songs we absolutely wanted while still allowing for flexibility so the DJ could read the crowd.

DJ Nate also played the music during our outdoor ceremony with no hitches. He was really responsive during the planning process too. He always got back to us pretty much right after we emailed him. Highly recomended!

DJ Nate was an absolutely perfect choice for our wedding, and I cannot imagine how he would not be for yours as well. Music is a big part of life for both my husband and I, and we were both concerned that we would end up with a DJ who played a bunch of music that we did not enjoy

Just a couple of emails exchanged with Nate put our fears to rest...Nate immediately came across as an earnest and down to earth person, who wanted to give us the musical experience for our wedding that would make us the happiest. I loved the fact that he has a very extensive database of music which you can look through, and select “love it’ “like it” or “hate it” for any song, in addition to being able to request that he add songs not found in the database, at no additional charge. Based on what we indicated about our song loves and hates, DJ Nate had fabulous intuition in understanding the broader implication for music that we would like to hear at the wedding, and we along with our guests enjoyed it all so much.
One of the most special moments for us was when Nate asked if he could play one more song to finish the night, not one that we had “loved” on the list, and it turned out to be one of my husband’s absolute favorites, and pitch perfect for the tone of our wedding and what we were all feeling. It’s at little moments like that where you don’t feel like you’ve hired a DJ, but gotten one of your friends with impeccable taste in music to score your party.
His pricing structure was extremely reasonable and upfront. The times that we all spoke on the phone were a pleasure. Nate was a very attentive listener, calm and reassuring amidst wedding stress, and always professional and prompt in any correspondence.
I would, recommend him to anyone, and in fact already did to a friend who was thrilled…and it’s a friend who is rarely if ever thrilled by anything. If I had it all to do again, (and fortunately I do not!) I would hire DJ Nate every time.

On behalf of my (now) wife and I, we'd like to thank Nate in every way possible! As many engaged couples quickly find out, wedding planning can be STRESSFUL! We searched high and low and spoke to countless entertainment companies/ DJ's/ Bands and we never felt as though we connected with the person on the other end of the phone. Then came along Terrace DJ (Nate).

The week we came across Terrace DJ's profile just happened to be leading into a vacation and we were extremely busy. Nate was SUPER flexible and agreed to speak with us during our 4 hour drive to the camp site. We ended up speaking for the better part of an hour and going through so many details that when we hung up, my wife and I looked at each other and agreed that it would be pointless to speak to the other calls we had set up for later in the week.

Once booked, Nate supplied a login to his website where we could add all the DO and DO NOT play songs we could think of. We also added the run down of entry music and the entire schedule of our wedding, which made everything so simple for us.

Getting to the night! Nate showed up, played every song we wanted and stayed away from anything we requested to avoid. The dance floor was packed the entire night from start to finish. We have received a ton of compliments on the vibe and flow of the music and that has everything how Nate handled himself behind the podium. It was all we expected and more. Thanks again and to anyone else who books this DJ will be getting much more than they even know. Hire Nate, he is the best!!

If you care at all about the music at your wedding, and you're worried about the DJ screwing it up, then look no further. Book DJ Nate right now. Nate was so easy to work with throughout the entire process. I'm a bit of a music nerd, and my wife and I wanted very specific songs for the ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, entrances, and reception. We weren't interested in hearing the typical Macarena, Electric Slide, Mambo #5, etc. (BUT if you are, Nate will play it). For our wedding I made it very clear from the beginning that there were certain songs we had to hear, and certain songs we absolutely did not want to hear. This included no requests from the guests. Nate assured me from the get-go that he would accommodate me in any way possible, and he did just that. Whatever songs he did not have at his disposal (such as rare live tracks from lesser known punk bands) he made it easy for me to just send them to him via dropbox. He was very responsive through phone and email messages, and professional the whole time, even when I got a bit wild with my requests and had to make some last minute changes. He was also willing to meet with me in person a couple of times, over a nice pint of beer (which wasn't necessary but totally awesome), and go over the playlist on his laptop, so we were both on the same page. No surprises. This gave me A LOT of peace of mind. The totem lighting package was nice and went well with our wedding decor. Nate also had to fill some time during our dinner hour, because the meals took longer than expected, and he did a great job playing things from his collection that matched what I had already asked him to play. The introductions were spot on. DJ Nate knows how important this part is, especially for the bride and groom, and if you ask him to read something he will do just that, word for word. He seriously was a pleasure to work with, and helped make our wedding so much more rockin' and enjoyable, and all of our guests agree.

I cannot speak highly enough of Terrace DJ’s DJ Nate (Nathan Atwood)! We had a weekend wedding PA. The one catch was that we wouldn’t be able to meet our DJ in advance of the event because my now husband and I live across the country in Reno, NV. This meant that we had to put full faith in our vendors (and some very helpful family members in PA) that their services would be perfect for our big day after just a few phone calls. It seems crazy now but we were SO lucky to end up with a DJ that was perfect for us considering the distance and circumstances in which we hired him (i.e. one late night phone call 3 months before our event).

Nate was great to work with throughout the planning process. I enjoyed using the online planning system Terrace DJ uses - it made long-distance planning pretty painless.

Nate’s timing for all of our planned songs was spot on, and he did an excellent job introducing us, calling tables up to the buffet, introducing some family and friends for toasts, etc. He has a great commanding yet friendly voice for this and I appreciated how (as promised) he wasn’t interested in providing any other comments than necessary - he was all about the music but definitely knew how to keep the evening flowing. This was a huge help to us since we did not have a wedding planner or any other kind of coordinator for the reception. We leaned on Nate for this and he absolutely delivered.

All evening I had people coming up and asking me, “how did you find this guy? It feels like i’m listening to your iPod, the songs are so perfect for you guys!” and these comments continued throughout the night. Our guests were thrilled with his song selections and a lot of people thought that we had hand-picked the songs ourselves, which was not the case. People were dancing immediately and continued until our 11 pm stop time. I (and others) never wanted to leave the dance floor!

100% would recommend, especially if you and your family love to let loose and dance!

DJ Nate (and Terrace DJ) was absolutely perfect. I cannot recommend him/them highly enough.

My husband and I had very specific criteria for a DJ. We wanted somebody who a) was professional, b) would play the music we wanted, and c) wouldn't make the party about himself by mashing songs together or shouting at guests through a microphone. DJ Nate played exactly the music we wanted (he went out of the way to find tracks that he didn't yet have), and he was a total pro in the lead-up to the day, and on the day itself.

DJ Nate also went above and beyond in a number of ways. For example, my husband and I wanted to do a choreographed dance for our first dance. But the song we chose was too long for the dance we'd planned. So DJ Nate edited the track to shorten it (seamlessly), so the song would fit the dance without anybody noticing. Example two: My father wanted to sing a song, Karaoke-style, and DJ Nate lent him the microphone, and found a way to turn the vocals down on the track so he could sing along more easily.

Before the date, DJ Nate sent us a detailed survey where we could say what kind of music we wanted, specific songs we wanted, and specific songs we didn't want. The survey also asked the timing of the reception: when dinner would be served, when the toasts would be (and who would be giving them), when we'd cut the cake, et cetera--to make the reception go smoothly. We weren't sure about some of the reception timing, and DJ Nate spoke with us on the phone (at length) and helped us work it out. Leading up, he was so easy to work with, and so detail-oriented, and so tolerant of the craziness that comes over you when you're planning a wedding.

And on the day itself, he was set up on time with great equipment, and he easily handled a few last-second curve balls. Thanks to him, everything went smoothly, and everyone had an awesome time.

Seriously, this is the guy you want for your wedding/event.

DJ Nate was a perfect fit for our wedding. He was very responsive and helpful throughout the wedding planning process. When it came to the day of the wedding, he did exactly what we talked about and even adjusted to a few last minute requests. He was very professional and fit into our non-traditional wedding style perfectly. We would recommend him to anyone!

DJ Nate at Terrace DJ was amazing! He was super helpful and understanding about me procrastinating when it came to filling out my music survey, he downloaded any songs that he didn't already have that we wanted to hear, including our somewhat obscure first dance song, and he managed to keep people dancing all night even when they was potential to be distracted by a fire pit with s'mores and an ice cream truck! Nate listened to all our wacky requests and made sure to play songs that would keep the party going and keep my guests happy. I've heard from many guests about how great the music was, how happy they were to hear the songs they requested on the survey I sent out before the wedding, and how awesome it was to be at a wedding where they didn't play to same tired wedding songs. (a direct quote from a coworker: "I've never heard 'Ruby Soho' played at a wedding! That was amazing!")
Terrace DJ was much more affordable than any other DJ company I looked into and from the very beginning I was sure that we would get only awesome service from DJ Nate. I will absolutely recommend his services to anyone getting married in the future!

5 stars isn't enough for Nate. This was by far one of the best vendor decisions I made for my wedding. Book this guy! He exceeded all expectations. We had very different and specific music requests but he was able to deliver on them and beyond. He was super professional, set up wasn't gaudy or over the top, and handled music changes/music location changes seamlessly. We got so many compliments on our music choices. But honestly, the biggest and to us, most important thing, was that we had a DJ who just got the vibe we were trying to go for. Absolutely nailed it. And that comes from conversations/his years of experience. I danced the whole night - my wedding was a dream, and DJ Nate helped contribute to that!

DJ Nate was amazing! My husband is a musician so music was an important piece of our wedding. We had a lot of specific requests for the ceremony and reception, and he was so accommodating. We provided him with a list of songs and he had them ready to go the week before our wedding.
When we initially started looking at DJs, we were concerned about the corny / cheesy factor that sometimes comes along with wedding DJs. DJ Nate is neither of those things! He kept the dance floor crowded, and made introductions / announcements as necessary. He was extremely professional, and we would 100% recommend him to any couples looking for a great DJ!

Nate is the BEST. The. Best. Our dance floor was packed the entire night and it was all because Nate is a genius at crafting the perfect dance-all-night playlist, even when the songs are totally all over the place. We asked him for a happy indie playlist for our cocktail hour and a big band/rat pack playlist for our dinner hour but gave no song requests - he nailed it! My grandparents were even up and dancing, which is a feat unto itself. Once we transitioned to dance music, I don't think there was a single moment the dance floor was empty.

What we appreciated the most about Nate was that he didn't have to use a cheesy voice or goad our guests to get on the dance floor - his music curation was just that good. Nate even gave me a call a few weeks before the wedding to inform me that my dad had made a special song request, just to make sure I wasn't surprised the night of. He was such a pleasure to work with - quick responses, easy to use online system - and was really flexible when we came to him with some crazy requests for our more important dances.

Nate was also flexible enough to allow another vendor, a strings duo, to use his amplification system for our ceremony and came extra early to make sure that the speakers were pointing the right direction at our windy venue.

We cannot express enough how important of a role Nate played in making our little wedding into a big party. I definitely burned off all those cake calories dancing the night away.

Nate was extremely responsive to all of our needs and professional throughout the entire process. The music was amazing and we received so many compliments on how much fun our wedding was. People were dancing until the very end of the reception! What we liked most about Nate was that he is was able to keep the reception lively and fun during the dancing part of the evening but he was also extremely classy and matched the elegant vibe we were going for during dinner and toasts. Everything was perfect and we couldn't have been happier with our experience!

If you are someone who truly cares about music, who wants both the classics AND tracks that may not be your "typical" wedding songs than look no further! My wife and I are very much "music people" and the music for our wedding was among one of the most important things to get right for us and I cannot say enough great things about DJ Nate and Terrace DJ! We were very specific and particular about what songs we wanted during our ceremony, our cocktail hour, our dinner, and during the rest of the night and DJ Nate absolutely nailed every moment perfectly. We were in contact with him multiple times leading up to the big day with changes and curveballs and every email got a response from him almost immediately and always congenially. We had multiple songs we were able to hand pick for him to get just for us, but he also had all the songs that you could want for any great party. We covered so many different genres from Sinatra to the Spice Girls and DJ Nate skillfully transitioned and played to the crowd to make the party enjoyable by all, but also truly unique to us. There were guests who told us afterwards that we had the best music of any wedding they had ever been to. And even if you're not that particular about music, I am confident that Terrace DJ would have you covered and give you the perfect playlist for whatever you're interested in. DJ Nate's flexibility, song selection, equipment, skill, & passion cannot be beat. Our wedding was exactly what we wanted and he was an absolutely integral part of that.

DJ Nate was by far the PERFECT DJ for us. He was the first DJ we spoke with and we knew we needed to look no further. He was incredibly flexible to arrange meeting times and locations, and he was our most responsive vendor throughout the planning process. He drove out to meet us at our venue to get an idea of the where would be the best place to set up and to get an overall vibe of the wedding. We had a very specific and eclectic sense of music and really requested a unique mix of music, and Nate never flinched at our requests. We merely provided him with a list of our preferred songs, and he had them downloaded and ready to review. We used his online planning tool to create lists of must play songs and indicate special requests for introductions, first dances, fading pieces, etc. Nate executed everything we requested to a T on the night of our wedding, and really provided the soundtrack to our evening. His dance lights made for some great party pictures, and everyone commented on what a great job he did. Our parents were pleased with what an excellent, humble host he was and how in-tune he was to the mood of the crowd. We loved working with Nate and would use him again in a heartbeat if we could do our wedding again. It was the best night of our lives, and we have his humble, professional service to thank.

DJ Nate from Terrace DJ was absolutely top notch in every way. My husband and I wanted someone to play only the music we wanted to hear (a mix of the old, the new, and the explicit), with minimum MC-ing, but be able to read the room to know what songs would keep people on the dance floor. He hands down, no question, delivered. We were able to choose every song that was played at our wedding, but it is 100% thanks to him that everyone was dancing to our choices! In fact, we had way less people at the wedding than expected, but the dance floor was rowdy the whole time (something that was really important to me). For all the people who think they can just plug in an iPod, think again. Everyone commented on how great he was! The segues from song to song kept people interested and the totem lighting system created the vibe we wanted. Throughout the process of working together before the wedding, Nate was flexible and professional every step of the way, making recommendations where we asked his opinion but also doing exactly what we told him we wanted. He was exceptional and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a high quality DJ. No frills, no fuss, just a true professional!

My wife and I had a NYE wedding because we wanted to dance all night. Obviously the DJ then becomes one of - if not the most - crucial element of our special day. We had heard of Terrace DJs through a friend and after finding their price very reasonable (especially for New Years Eve) we contacted them. Throughout the entire process DJ Nate was extremely responsive, accommodating, and knowledgable about the business. He gave us the option to create our own playlist of songs to play and those not to play. He stuck to the list perfectly and even when needed created some nice additions when our "Dinner songs" ran out. We didn't want DJ Nate to talk, introduce anything, or make announcements. All we wanted was great music to dance to and he came through. In addition, a friend of ours was DJing the cocktail hour and Nate was kind enough to arrive early to the venue and set up speakers for our friend to use for his set. Talk about going above and beyond!

If you know what you want for your wedding then DJ Nate is perfect. If you need some assistance in selecting specific tracks or moods for the evening I'm sure he can help you as well but we didn't particularly need those services.

THANKS DJ NATE AND THANKS TERRACE DJS!

Nate was a pleasure to work with. He accommodated several last-minute special requests, including clips of songs we recorded for the ceremony and making a mash-up of very different genres for our recessional. He did a great job keeping people on the dance floor all evening and nobody wanted the night to end! He seemed to really get exactly what we wanted out of every part of the evening. I would absolutely recommend DJ Nate!!

I recently got married in Lewes, DE on Oct 24th and my husband and I used DJ Nate for our wedding reception. Nate was awesome!! From working with him before the reception to the actual day of, he was always so professional, on time, and really listened to our ideas for making our day the best ever! His website is so easy to go on to and put in song requests and he really made sure to play all of the songs that we put were an absolute must! I was even emailing him the day of requesting songs and he had them ready to go for that night. We would definitely recommend him! Thanks again Nate for helping to make our wedding day amazing!

DJ Nate at Terrace DJ was an absolute delight to work with. My husband and I were having a difficult time finding someone who would accommodate us with our very specific and precise wedding Must Play list. I went full-neurotic when it came to the music and almost every DJ I found wanted to play sets their way and not mine.

DJ Nate worked seamlessly with me to make sure I got to hear what I wanted when, and filled in any gaps I had. If he didn't have a track, he was immediately willing to get it himself or let me place what I had already in a dropbox.

I may not have a lot of experience with DJs outside of the wedding, but I can say that when it came to maximum powered stress, DJ Nate calmed me and gave me nothing but confidence in the music of the entire wedding. He's incredible and I can't rate him highly enough.

My husband and I had a very positive experience with DJ Nate. Since our first conversation Nate was always willing to answer any question and he was very helpful overall. He made sure that all of our requested songs were played, and listened to us/worked with us with all of our requests. I am happy that I chose a professional and helpful DJ like Nate.

DJ Nate was fantastic. He went through all the details before the wedding that he knew what we wanted every step of the way. He even went over pronunciation of everyone's name. And he took care of every special request. During the reception, he was always watching and playing what people wanted. The music was always present, but it didn't take over the show. He also provided lighting which was subtle and tasteful. It did not take away from the decorating we had done, but it did make the dance floor more exciting. Later in the night we found a broom handle and started doing an impromptu limbo and he had Limbo Rock playing before I even thought to go request it. He was happy to make any announcements we had clearly without being obnoxious. I would hire him again in an instant and I would recommend him to anyone.

You are lucky to have found this DJ. Book him. He is the one.
Seriously.
My wife and I were lucky enough to have been referred DJ Nate's way and we could not have been more pleased with how everything worked out. Nate has a very calm and reassuring demeanor, which certainly helps when you're stressing a thousand different to-dos on your end with planning everything else for your wedding. With him--everything was very easy. He has every song you'd expect and if you have any particular ones that aren't in his system, he makes it very clear that he can very easily pull them in right away for you from all of his licensing sources. (eg. we had several requests from our end for some country songs for our first dances and for background music while food was being served and Nate either had those songs on hand or got them very easily).

His set up is classy and all his equipment looked like it fit in with the venue much more than your traditional DJ booth. His handling of the crowd and the entrances were great. He had a rough sketch from us about which songs we wanted played and when and then he also had great judgement about when and how to turn the party up. In the week leading up to the event, we had designated a MUST PLAY / WOULD BE NICE IF YOU PLAYED / ABSOLUTELY DO NOT PLAY list and that worked out amazingly. He also can handle guests coming up to make requests--and we got some good ones out of that too.

Everyone raved about how much fun they had at our wedding and DJ Nate was such a key part of that experience.
Could not recommend him enough.

I don't even know where to begin! We absolutely could not have chosen a better DJ for our wedding. Nate was extremely professional from beginning to end and went above and beyond to make everything perfect. We first found out about Terrace DJ through Thumbtack.com, and I immediately knew they were perfect for us. Nate was very down to earth and not pushy at all. He gladly worked within our budget which was much appreciated! He drove out of his way to meet us twice in person to iron out the details and he was very open to all of our ideas. In the end everything went even better than expected, he was a true master of his craft. He was punctual and very professional on the wedding day. Since it was a DIY wedding there were times we really relied on him to keep the evening on track. We would most absolutely recommend Terrace DJ for any occasion, especially if you're looking for very personalized service. Choosing Terrace DJ was hands down the easiest and least stressful part of planning our wedding! We will most definitely hire him again for any future special occasions.

DJ Nate was really great to work with for our wedding and we couldn't be happier. From the first time we talked he was very professional and easy to work with and his approach to DJing at weddings fit in well with our own vision. His website was very useful for setting up a timeline and requesting music and he was very accommodating with special song requests.

Nate did both the sound for our ceremony and music for our reception. The sound quality was excellent -- all the guests could hear our officiant and readings perfectly clearly. The music at our reception was amazing as well, perfect volume, everything went super smoothly. We gave Nate a short list of the type of music we liked and he took that and ran with it, and did an amazing job -- everyone had a blast and kept dancing throughout the night. We'd definitely hire Nate again!

Our wedding was in the middle of a near biblical downpour, under a tent, in what became a swamp. There was mud splashed on some of the tables, most shoes were a loss, and a great deal of dry-cleaning was undertaken in the days following.

We also offered very little feedback about what we wanted outside of "some music".

DJ Nate, was a miracle worker, the party rocked on well into the night and the mood stayed bright despite numerous other small calamities; everyone knows the heartbeat is the music.

All of that said, he's a super nice guy on top of all of it.

DJ Nate recently DJ'ed our wedding and reception. He did a great job picking out music for the reception based on a short list of music we gave him. The Terrace DJ website was very convenient for selecting music and setting a timeline and Nate was willing to get any music we asked for that wasn't already on his website. Nate was extremely professional and easy to work with, he filled in holes in our plan and made sure we knew if we were possibly forgetting something (we forgot to pick processional and recessional music and he reminded us). Nate was more than willing to work with our vision of our reception (which was more low-key than most). It was a pleasure working with him, and we would highly recommend his services.

While looking for a DJ for our wedding, my husband and I wanted someone we knew would be able to ensure sustained energy throughout our reception, but we weren't sure how to "audition" DJs. Then, we remembered how much fun we had at a friend's wedding and asked who the DJ was... it was DJ Nate!

We reached out to him and were instantly pleased with his professionalism and responsiveness. He made everything he needed from us in terms of planning easy to understand which was essential as things started getting stressful with everything else leading up to our big day.

The day of the wedding, DJ Nate was on fire. He played an amazing combination of our own requests and other songs that fit well with the vibe. His lighting set up was beautiful and livened the party up even more.

We would, without a doubt, use DJ Nate again if we were throwing a party or event that needed a DJ. And we'd recommend him in a heartbeat to other couples looking for a fun, easy to work with DJ for their big day.

DJ Nate was absolutely great to work with. He delivered everything as promised and helped us make sure everything was considered prior to the reception. We had a few special song requests and he made sure he added them to his library so they were ready to go. Everyone loved the music and he made sure he mixed it up so everyone had something to dance with. We called a bunch of DJs and found either a bunch of corporate sounding networks or newbies with some speakers and a iPod, DJ Nate was personal, real and basically just easy and great to work with. I'd highly recommend him for any event .... so just reach out to Nate and I'm sure you will find he is perfect for your wedding or other event.

DJ Nate was an excellent host for our wedding. Before the ceremony, we corresponded with him via email to select our songs; he provided an exhaustive list of choices and asked probing questions to get the "feel" of our wedding as to provide the best atmosphere for our guests. He discreetly stationed himself for the ceremony and then shifted towards the front of the venue for the reception. He played exactly what we asked but mixed the selections to keep the dancers on the floor. DJ Nate is thoughtful, organized, and fun professional who will make sure to provide the best soundtrack for your event. We highly recommend him and his team!

8/16 @ Bridgewater Nissan Back to School Weekend Sales Event

DJ Nate came into the dealership determined in delivering nonstop mixes of pop, house and uptempo music for daily Saturday car consumer crowd...he delivered for sure. Saturday dealer traffic was higher volume thanks to the music. Such testimonials were "I didn't mind the long waiting area because of the music" and "crank up the volume, why waste good music" from anonymous customers. Keep up the good work! -Bridgewater Nissan Sales Team

DJ Nate was wonderful to work with during the time leading up to the wedding and during the actual wedding. My wedding was one of my most fun days ever, and a large reason for this was the great music and non stop dancing! He played all of my "must play" songs and avoided playing all of my "do not play" songs and bands (I had an embarrassingly long list). He picked great songs to supplement my requested music that fit with the crowd and kept people dancing for hours. He was always polite, easy going and very open to how we wanted the day to go. DJ Nate gave us one less thing to worry about during a very stressful time. Highly recommended!

We were lucky enough to have DJ Nate at our wedding. Not only did he bring fun and energy to the reception, but his personality and professionalism were equally enjoyable. There are a million different pieces involved in planning a wedding. If you hire DJ Nate at Terrace DJ, you will never have to worry about one of the most important items on your checklist, the music.

Nate did a fantastic job! He was very responsive and really listened to our preferences. He had almost any song you could think of, and really kept our guests on the floor. Everyone has said since our wedding that it was one of the most fun weddings they've been to, and I attribute a good part of that to the fun music! Thank you Nate for your work and incredible contribution to making our wedding such a beautiful day!

DJ Nate of Terrace DJ was the DJ at our wedding. He was perfect. He avoided all the pitfalls of common wedding dj-ery. He actually listened to our preferences and opinions and respected our do not play list. He made announcements only to our specifications and he fit the mood of the event perfectly. We had numerous cues for him to play certain songs or make certain transitions in the event and he hit every single one. We were pretty specific/hands-on about what music we wanted him to play, but he seemed very willing to give the couple at hand exactly as much control as wanted. Based on the variety of his catalog I'm sure he'd be able to put together great playlists just by having a conversation about your taste. Seriously - couldn't recommend him highly enough. We didn't worry once about music or announcements the entire day, which is the ultimate when you have a lot of other things on your mind!

DJ Nate was absolutely amazing!! My husband and I are both musicians so having great reception music was a top priority for us, and Nate went above and beyond to make it a great time. We spoke beforehand to coordinate songs and he sent us a huge spreadsheet with sample lists from past weddings and clients that we could pick from. From there we selected songs that we liked, songs we didn't want to play, our kiss/aisle songs and an overall vibe that we were trying to create.

The reception was incredible, and more than a year after the wedding I've had friends mention how hard it was for them to put their drinks down or run to the bathroom because the music was so good! Nate kept the party rolling right up until the end of the night. However, the most magical part of the ceremony was how Nate timed our kiss/aisle song. My husband joked that the timing wouldn't be perfect or "like the movies," but Nate ran the song a couple times beforehand and timed it perfectly during the ceremony! He created so many memorable moments throughout the entire night, and friends who have gotten married after us have joked that their DJs have a lot to live up to after our wedding. Highly, highly recommend!

Terrace DJ was an absolute joy to work with, both leading up to my wedding on May 19, 2013, and on the actual day. I was having a very alternative, subculture infused, theme wedding. He provided a massive excel sheet that contained all of the music he had, and I was able to select what I liked and what I didn't. He was also totally excited about our own music selections, which I sent to him in advance, and he spun "our music" in throughout the night. Also, there was a side room at our wedding that I wanted to be for latin music exclusively to keep mom happy, and he sent me a bunch of songs to download. He worked with our song transitions during our entrance and all special moments throughout the night. It was perfect, and it went off without a hitch. :)

We had the most diverse request for music and DJ Nate was AMAZING! HE really came through with every genre and artists. He included us in the whole process and was able to handle requests on the fly. He really made our day so very special. Highly recommend him!

I know some people get skeptical with 5s across the board, but DJ Nate was everything we wanted. We had him when he was still working at his previous gig, and we couldn't have been happier with how he handled our music.

I was a huge control freak about the music at our wedding, and Nate patiently acquired each and every song I handpicked that he did not already have in his arsenal. He was incredibly responsive leading up to the date itself, and instead of acting frustrated that he had to deal with such a nit-picky client, he actually complimented my music taste! Day of, everything went down as planned, including the music that we had timed to each segment of the ceremony.

If we ever need a DJ again, Nate would be our first choice. He is pleasant and patient and SO accommodating, and his competence will take at least one thing off your (probably reeeeallly heavy) plate.

Good DJ, he was able to understand our intentions and chose great music along the lines of what we wanted. He took our do-and-don't-play list without issue. Always friendly.

DJ Nate was our wedding DJ and he was fantastic. He was very organized, professional and very efficient with his follow through, especially given the short time we had to plan our wedding. When we were picking some key songs, we found that our 'first dance song' was only to be found in a live version from a concert video, but he quickly offered to take that digital file and make it into an mp3 audio file (not sure if I'm getting the lingo right!). I hadn't even thought of this and he said it without missing a beat (no pun intended!). I was very impressed with this, especially given the poor quality of the recording we had and everything worked out great. I would highly recommend working with him. Our wedding was at ReBar in Brooklyn and we were shocked to hear of the owner embezzling money and the venue going bankrupt 2 months after our wedding and would like to help Nate any way he can move forward and expand his business. So if any additional info is needed or a more specific reference is needed, please don't hesitate to comment to me and I can speak with anyone seeking a great DJ for any event! Thanks Nate! Anne

My wife and I used DJ Nate of Terrace DJ for our wedding in June of 2013. What can I say, DJ Nate was a total pro. He played the right music for the right time, and everyone seemed to have a great time. DJ Nate was also great in dealing with my various requests. I was very particular about certain songs being played at certain times, and DJ Nate was always accommodating. He offered advice on what works best, but also listened to what my wife and I were looking for. Some of my choices were a bit eccentric and DJ Nate figured out ways to work my requests in without diminishing the vibe we were going for. Not many DJs can skillfully integrate the Smiths into a wedding reception, but it wasn't a problem for Nate.
He was great with communication leading up to and during the wedding as well. All in all, no complaints here. Great work!

DJ Nate created an incredible play list for our wedding based on the little bit of information we provided him beforehand. He listens, is reliable, and I felt that he delivered above and beyond our expectations. Many of our guests (of varying ages) sought us out after our wedding to tell us how much they loved the music. You can't go wrong with DJ Nate.

Nate served as the DJ for our wedding and we could not have been happier! He was very responsive to our requests regarding songs we wanted, and more importantly, clearly "got us"... meaning that he understood what we were looking for in terms of style and filled the gaps in our play list with music that suited us perfectly! As part of our ceremony, we had some friends play some live music. He was able to meet with the musicians ahead of time so that they knew what the sound system was like, knew what they needed to bring to plug in, etc.

Great time!

DJ Nate was easy to work with and added the perfect ambiance to our wedding. He was an excellent MC and worked well with our wedding band. His selections were very stylized to match our theme and I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking to party.
