​"OH MY, OH MY GOD, THE ENTERTAINMENT'S HERE!"

I am a full-service, mobile disc jockey and emcee located in Southern Maine.  Weddings are sort of "my thing," but I'm also available for private parties of any sort such as birthdays, retirement, holidays, etc...  Pretty much anything you want to celebrate can be enhanced by music. 

Who doesn't get chills the first time they hear the Imperial March in Star Wars? And who doesn't get transported back to their childhood when they hear Alan Silvestri's score from Back To The Future? Scores and soundtracks play such a big role in creating a memory that lasts a lifetime.

My first "gig" was a friend's Sweet Sixteen party.  I used a home stereo, a Radio-Shack microphone and my own CDs.  All-in-all, I'd call it a success, but I've come a long way, and so has the equipment.  

I've always loved technology and entertainment.  I graduated from the New England School of Communications with a Bachelor's Degree in Communications and a concentration in Radio.  I worked for Portland Radio Group for over a dozen years, both on-air for WYNZ and WMGX, and producing for WGAN’s #1-rated morning show.

When I meet with couples to talk about their wedding music, I love to hear about their musical memories. The song that her dad would play as he whisked her around the living room as a young girl. The very first CD he played in his first car's stereo. The song she'd belt out with her girlfriends at every school dance.

My goal with every couple, at every wedding is to celebrate those unique musical memories, while creating even more.

Please check out the site and if you have any questions, comments, concerns, or just want to talk about feelings, contact me through the message form or give me a call.  I'll be happy to answer questions, receive comments, address concerns, and analyze your feelings (I'm guessing you were fed too many Cheerios as a child).

That should just about do it for the introduction!  Tour the site and give me a call!

“Nate was the perfect wedding DJ! We have been to so many weddings before where the DJ was more about hearing his own voice rather than playing the music so we knew we wanted to steer clear of this. Nate met with us before our wedding day and went over the schedule/song choices and I felt super confident that he would deliver! On the day of the wedding, he arrived early and was setup to go! He played the best jams and kept the crowd going until the venue had to shut it down (we could have kept going all night!) Thank you Nate for being such an awesome part of our day!” ~ Marie & Brian



“Nate was a fantastic DJ! He kept the music flowing and guests danced all night! He was very easy to work with and always punctual with responses to e-mail. I couldn't have asked for a better DJ!” ~ Erin & Steve

"Nate was absolutely amazing. He assisted us in the music selection and reception order and was always extremely helpful! At the event Nate was wonderful, all of the music played was exactly what we wanted! He was professional and extremely helpful in all aspects of the reception.

"Nate was AMAZING!!! I'm so happy he was part of our day and we had a blast. I had met with him the week before the wedding with my maid of honor, he was able to help me pull of some special surprises formy husband (like playing the Imperial March when I walked down the aisle). I also filled Nate in on the fact that our groomsmen all were wearing tuxedo t-shirts under their tuxes! Nate came prepared and stripped down to his when our guys did! We also provided our own version of Grease (it was his favorite part I know it)!! I wanted a party and that's what Nate brought. He is AMAZING and highly recommend him to anyone getting married. Thank you so much for everything, we had a great day and partied all night! :-)"

"DJ Nate was amazing - a smooth operator who was able to entertain our guests and go with the flow, especially when the ceremony start was delayed a bit. The song selection was beyond perfect and I felt like DJ Nate looked at our planner and really listened to all my suggestions - he truly helped make our wedding the best night of our life by keeping the music going and everyone on the dance floor. Thank you!"
~ Amy & Graham



"Best DJ at a wedding so far. Played all the songs we wanted to hear, put up with all kinds of guests requesting songs. Showed up on time, no hassle or questions. Very happy with my service, thank you."
~ Alicia & Mitch



"I just wanted to tell you that Nate was INCREDIBLE!!!! I've been to two other weddings this year and both had some form of a band and you blew them all out of the water!!!!! I danced almost every single song at my own wedding and tore the bustling out of my dress because of Nate's awesome music choice and the way he handled the crowd was INCREDIBLE. And I have to tell you that I never remember the sequencing of songs for a night of dancing and drinking - but the very fact that I remember Nate rolling us from "You Shook me All Night Long" to "Sweet Child O'Mine" was without a doubt the best transition of dance songs EVER!!!!!! I got shivers at that moment and couldn't scream loud enough :) THANK you THANK you Nate for making our night INCREDIBLE - you were so relaxed and perfect and the ceremony musice went PERFECTLY TOO!!!!! I know my entire bridal party was hesitant about the song I picked for them to walk down to - but they loved it once they were into it :) Nate even got my now husband up and moving - a self professed NON DANCER!!!!!! I am so blessed to have found your team and thank Nate for making the happiest night of our lives even happier :) And I owe Nate an even deeper thanks for humoring my last standing friends and their fevered requests for just one more song :) He is the BEST - OH!!! and about the weather - I had prayed for that misty fog so I was PSYCHED that the ceremony was outside and having the reception inside turned out even more PERFECT than we could have ever imagined!!!!!!! so NO worries about it!!!!! IT WAS PERFECT!!!! If we could do it all again - we WOULD!!!!! Nate is an EXTREMELY talented DJ who knows all the right touches!"
~ Stacey & Shane
