We loved working with Nate! He DJed our wedding in Healdsburg last July. Very professional, helpful, and played amazing music. We got compliments from serval of our guests on the music. Highly recommend! Thanks, Nate! read more

Luz was the most incredible wedding planner! We connected with her immediately, and we trusted that she would make our wedding day stress free and perfect! My husband and I had a strong understanding of what we wanted out of the day, and she was able to provide guidance on making it happen. We never were pressured to add things we weren't interested in, and she was truly the best cheerleader and coach throughout the whole process. On the actual wedding day, everything went smoothly and all of the tasks were assigned. All of our family and friends were able to enjoy every moment because Luz handled everything that came up! read more

Hands down, the best in the business!!! Not only is Nate the best DJ, he is such a kind person. He has a very calm presence which was amazing for me as a not so cool, calm and collected bride. He played the best music without much guidance and kept everyone up on their feet dancing until the very last song of the night. A week later and I am still getting texts about how awesome our DJ was. Everyone needs a DJ like Nate at their wedding. Nate, thank you for everything you did to make our wedding the best night of our lives. We will always be grateful to you!! read more

I have nothing but good things to say about Caliber. Between the thoughtful questionnaire and the team's excellent communication, Caliber truly customizes each event to YOUR vision and YOUR story- not just a cookie-cutter playlist. From the moment we met him, we knew we had found the right person for us. As a queer couple, we had no doubt that Nate and his colleagues would always make us feel welcome and right at home- but they truly went above and beyond to make sure we were well taken care of. Our venue had a complicated logistical set up at a place he hadn't worked before, but like a true pro Nate figured out exactly how to mic everything perfectly. Not only is Nate a pro, he's also an absolute joy to work with. He integrated all of our goofy requests but still kept an air of elegance. At one point, Nate noticed that I was getting bitten by mosquitos in my open-backed dress and gestured to me from the side of the reception area with a can of bug spray. Then on the dance floor, he put together a transition so perfect I had to stop what I was doing to go give him props. If you're thinking about Caliber, don't think twice- just go for it. I promise you won't regret it. read more

Caliber DJs - Dinner reception @theganeys - DJs Near Me - San Francisco, California

Caliber DJs is the BEST!!!! I have worked with Nate and his amazing team for a few years as a wedding planner, but this last weekend, it was my wedding, and I knew I had to work with Nate! He not only knows how to keep a dancefloor going, but he is also one of the most lovely people I have ever met. From the beginning of our wedding planning process, Nate was so extremely responsive and organized! I felt so comfortable with him in charge of the music, that I truly felt like I didn't even need to give him suggestions because he just gets it!! He was also so on top of everything from the second he was onsite. There was not a single problem the entire night because he is so prepared and easy to work with! When it came to the dancing portion of the reception, the dancefloor was packed all night all because of him!! There was literally never a lull in the music. It was non stop dancing! The venue that I got married at also had a hard noise ordinance at 9:30pm, so Nate helped organize a silent disco for us, and it was SO MUCH FUN!!! I have gotten so many compliments about Nate and Caliber DJs since my wedding, and I am so happy that I got to work with him! Nate made my day so much fun, and I can't say enough amazing things about him! He is truly the best and will keep your guests dancing all night long! THANK YOU SO MUCH NATE!! read more

We loved having Nate as our wedding DJ!! He was such a pro. Your DJ really sets the tone for the day, so we knew this was a very important vendor hire. Nate spent a lot of time getting to know us and our music preferences and vision for the day, and had a detailed questionnaire about our tastes and what we did/didn't want played at the wedding. An added plus was that he was familiar with both our planner and our venue. He knew all the details and foibles of the space ("It can get windy in the afternoon, so I find a hand-held mic is best for vows"). He works all around the Bay Area, so I wouldn't be surprised if this were true for most venues. On the day of, he was amazing. On the mic, he was charismatic and professional without being obtrusive - having been to a lot of weddings and seen a lot of DJs where that's not always the case, that's a hard balance to strike!! He kept the flow of speeches running smoothly, and his music choices perfectly set the tone for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and dinner. And on the dance floor, he killed it. Transitions were PERFECT, and he read the room as to what people were responding to and kept the flow of songs accordingly (you know how sometimes everyone will be getting down to a banger like "Yeah," and then the DJ will abruptly switch to like, an obscure, slow Ed Sheerhan song and everyone kind of awkwardly stops dancing? Yeah, none of that with Nate). He played everything we requested, as well as nostalgic bangers that we had forgotten to include but slotted perfectly into the playlist. The party ramped up throughout the night and I fully credit Nate's ability to command the dancefloor. Hire Nate, you will love working with him - we definitely did!!! read more

We wanted to thank Caliber DJs from the bottom of our hearts for being one of the best parts of our special day! People are still raving about the music, and some have even said they didn't get a chance to eat as much as they planned because they couldn't stop dancing. So many people told us before the wedding they didn't plan on dancing at the reception, and people couldn't stay off the dance floor. Edwin completely captured our vision based on one conversation, and we couldn't be more grateful that we had the opportunity to work with him and Nate! read more

Nate went above and beyond for our intimate wedding in Healdsburg. He curated an amazing play list (which we got compliments on all night long) and was able to adjust to an impromptu Hora. Hey stayed to make sure everyone had the best time and we are so grateful for all the planning and attention to make our day so special! read more

Nate DJed our wedding last April and it was absolutely incredible. We spent a few months working on playlists, sending tracks back and forth, and they completely delivered on our vision. The dance floor was popping off for almost 5 hour. And we heard everything from The Beatles to The Chemical Brothers. All perfectly timed for the vibe of the night. Would without doubt recommend. read more

Unbelievably easy to work with, set up, on-point, incredible DJ that was far above any of our expectations. It was a corporate event for architects at the Contemporary Jewish Museum. Nate made it upscale and classy, while bringing up the vibe in just the perfect way. Can't wait to use him again. read more

We worked with Nate for our wedding and he did a fabulous job!! He was responsive to emails and even met with us via video chat before the wedding to go over details. He was very professional throughout the whole process and everyone at our wedding was dancing throughout the night! I highly recommend! read more

Nate absolutely ROCKED our wedding! Not only did he keep our guests on the dance floor the ENTIRE night, he set just the right mood and ambiance for the lower-key moments of the evening as well during cocktail hour, dinner, etc. And he really worked his magic making our ceremony sound crystal clear despite some insane, out-of-the-blue wind that descended right before the ceremony was set to start. We just watched our video of the ceremony and from the sound alone you couldn't tell there was any wind at all (our hair blowing around in the wind was a different story, however ). Thank you so much Nate, we had such a blast working with you! read more

Caliber DJs - Nate working his magic - DJs Near Me - San Francisco, California

Nate took every expectation we had and absolutely surpassed it. We were looking at two different genres to blend into our wedding, between a classic playlist and mixing in a few early 2000's Pop Punk hits. Nate found the perfect flow to block some genres together and always keep the dance floor moving without any lulls. He truly went above and beyond when we had a medical emergency at our wedding and we had to wrap up early. While we had plenty of people who still had energy left, Nate helped coordinate with a local bar that could take us, packed up his whole kit, and kept DJing the rest of the night. Nate's just a pleasant bubbly personality who is what you want regardless of event you're planning. Completely organized and helpful even when we weren't sure of every detail we wanted for our ceremony and reception. Made the whole process wonderful. read more

DJ Kidd of CaliberDJs provided entertainment during our cocktail hour & wedding reception at the Arizona Grand Resort. Everyone was glued to the dance floor. Guests sang every lyric they knew to every song. So many people kept telling us what an awesome DJ we had, how great the set list was, etc. compliments rained in! Thank you a million times over to Kidd and Nate. You are an all star team. Very professional. Very understanding. read more

Nate was amazing for our wedding. He met with us a multiple times and really heard what we were looking for. He also did sound at our ceremony and cocktail hour and made the day flow seamlessly. Dance floor was busy all night! He was so great to work with and I would highly recommend! read more

Nate was an absolutely fantastic DJ for our wedding. He knew the location, listened to our expectations and musical tastes and just delivered 100%! The dance floor was packed all night and my husband and I spent the majority of the wedding tearing it up with our guests. Thanks Nate for contributing to an amazing party!!! read more

Nate was an absolute MVP of our wedding! I'm still in awe of how he tapped into the energy of our guests and kept the dance floor full of people having the time of our lives for the entire party. I could not leave the dance floor because every song was something I HAD to dance to! He was also thoughtful about playing some sweet personal things for us during the dinner/cocktail hour. He took the time to speak with us and get to know our tastes, and that really came through at the event. He was so professional and well-prepared at every stage. All my guests keep telling me what a fantastic dance party it was! In short, if you are considering hiring Nate or CaliberDJs, you should! You will have an amazing wedding with him on your team! read more

We loved working with Caliber for our wedding. They were organized, had great communication and excellent equipment. Most importantly, our DJ- DJ Olga T - was the best, and our dance floor was fire. Would 100% recommend. read more

August 3rd, 2014 : Mountain Winery- Saratoga, CA We had the pleasure of meeting Nate through our wedding coordinator. Since we were planning a wedding in CA while working full time in Texas, we relied on phone conversations to speak with our vendors. Prior to speaking with Nate, he sent us a questionnaire via email just to get an idea of what our music tastes were. I've been to many weddings before, and there were a few things that I wanted in a DJ: 1. I wanted the DJ to play my music!! I've heard of wedding Djs in the past that played their own music. With so much effort and time going into one day, Nate assured us that he would play our music. He was able to play some old stuff and new songs!! 2. We didn't want a DJ that talked too much: Nate was really accomodating, and I'm sure if you wanted him to speak more at your event he would, but for ours, we just wanted the music to speak for itself. Nate did announce certain things like the speeches, which is exactly what we wanted!! 3. We wanted smooth transitions between songs: Nate made seemless transitions between songs, and that kept the party going!! 4. We wanted to be able to hear the music, but not cause us to be deaf: The music was the right volume. If you're in the Bay Area, and you're looking for a professional, considerate, entertaining DJ, then stop here and hire Nate. WE loved Nate, but you must be wondering what our guests thought: -"OH WOW Anthony, the music was so cool!" -"I wish we had a DJ like that at our wedding" -"Where did you find this guy? He's so cool!" Go book Nate right away, and focus on other parts of your wedding. He's worth every penny!!! read more

It's rare that I ever give 5 stars for anything in life, but having Nate DJ at our wedding was such a great experience that it's well worth the rating. My sister used him for her wedding a couple of years ago and we literally could not stop dancing! Every time we tried to take a break, it was like he had a magical "dance whip" that would force you back up onto the floor. We had the same experience with him for our date this past August 17th. We met with Nate in advance to discuss some of the logistics (I.e. first dance song, garter toss etc.) but I still feel confident that he would have been able to play with little to no direction. Sincerely, A happy bride read more

We used Nate as our DJ for our June 2017 wedding. I have absolutely nothing but great things to say about him. He kept close in contact all throughout our engagement, was super responsive to emails, and was overall just perfect to work with. On our actual wedding day, he played the BEST music that kept everyone on the dance floor. We gave him a list of about 15-20 songs for the overall vibe of our wedding and he took care of the rest. I would definitely recommend Nate as a DJ to any event, but especially something so special as a wedding. read more

If I had to sum up Nate of Caliber DJs in one word it would be AMAZING. He was recommended to us by our wedding planner Cheryl Fleming of Caitlin Arnold Weddings and Events and I will continue to recommend him to anybody looking for a great DJ. Nate is easy to work with and he really listens to you. He delivered the exact feel my husband and I were going for at our reception and several of our guests complimented on how great the music was and that it was one of the best weddings they had ever attended- I give a lot of credit to Nate for keeping our guests happy and having a great time. Nate is really good at reading the crowd and playing music that keeps the party going. There were no cheesy gimmicks or cliche wedding songs to kill the mood. One of the best parts is Nate spins vinyl. It was just that much cooler to watch him work the turntable than click around on a Mac Book. A true professional showman. Book Nate. Do it. You (and your guests) will love him!!! read more

Planning my friend's wedding was about the most daunting and stressful undertaking that has happened to me in recent memory. That's why it was such a relief to have discovered Nate and Caliber DJs. Nate was an absolute breeze to work with, and his experience and professionalism came through every step of the way. The first thing that struck me was Nate's incredible attention to detail. His initial questionnaire addressed many questions that even we hadn't thought of. His constant accessibility throughout the planning process was a very comforting thing to have, but he was never overbearing at any point. After meeting with him to get down some final logistics we were more than confident that he would deliver on my friend's big day. And deliver he did! As an MC he was personable but not invasive, making sure to learn the correct pronunciation of everyone's names, and giving cues to those who had to make speeches. Since we didn't have a wedding planner it was really nice to have someone worrying about that so we didn't have to. The music was absolutely amazing from start to finish- sophisticated and low-key during dinner and cocktails, and when it came down to the dancing he had people on the floor sweating until the hotel turned the lights up at the end of the night! Best of all, he was able to take our music suggestions and weave them perfectly with selections of his own- he really made it feel like we were in control the entire time and was polite and tactful even when a few of the more "unruly" guests made requests that were on the "do not play" list. And the fact that he uses actual turntables and records is super cool. My friend's guests have been raving about him for weeks now! All in all I would recommend Caliber DJs to anyone and everyone looking for that perfect fit for their wedding. I can't imagine what we would have done without him and would consider anyone lucky enough to book him to be in for an incredible and memorable experience from start to finish. 5 stars!! read more

DJ Nate kept the dance floor busy at my winter wedding. The flow into the next song was smooth. I think Nate may be the best dance floor reader I have ever seen. He is also very professional, made sure we got the music we wanted and didn't play anything we didn't. By the end of the night we were holding our lights up for an encore. The night was complete with every dance imaginable. We had couples dancing, line dancing, dancing in a circle, group dancing, solo show off dancing, splits in the air dancing, reverse worm dancing, break dancing. I can't imagine my wedding with any other DJ. Did I mention we didn't have a single no show at our reception? I like to think some of Nate's charm played a part. Do yourself a favor and book this super talent yesterday. Then you can be like me, people coming up to you saying how much fun they had at your wedding. Million Thanks Nate!! read more

If I could choose a ton more stars, I totally would!!! Nate is absolutely AMAZING!!! He was a huge part of our big day! He is the best at reading the crowd and keeping everyone happy! I'm so so so so happy that my wife found him!!! Thank you so much, Nate!!!!! read more

Nate was referred to me for my wedding, and he absolutely killed it! His MC skills were essential to keeping the flow of the event going (from ceremony to cocktail hour to the reception), and everyone loved his music. Dance floor was full all night. In addition, he was extremely helpful and responsive throughout the entire planning process - he came to my neighborhood to meet in person and discuss plans twice! That level of service really helps put your mind at ease when you're planning a wedding. THANK YOU NATE! read more

Caliber DJs are incredible! Nate is not only an incredibly thoughtful, attentive DJ, but also an amazing producer. Some DJs are just amateurs and play what "sounds right." Nate goes beyond just a "sounds right" approach. He truly knows music, which makes his services superior. read more

Nate was an absolute pleasure to work with, and his DJing throughout the night was absolutely perfect. Nate happily talked to use many times leading up to the big day, gaining insight into the themes we wanted to project through our music, and executed on it magnificently. He also went above and beyond, creating some custom cuts of songs for specific parts of the evening. We couldn't have been happier with the night, and it was perfect in large part of because of Nate's hard work and excellent performance. read more

Nate was wonderful to work with. We booked him as our DJ for our wedding in San Francisco last month (April). He was responsive, accommodating, and easy going throughout. We met briefly in person ahead of the wedding to review music preferences which was really helpful to get to know Nate and be comfortable that he "got it" -- he did! Nate helped to keep things moving along from cocktail hour to dinner service to cake cutting and onto the dance floor. He absolutely nailed the music selection and we had a full dance floor from the start through to the final note of the last song. We were thrilled! read more

Of all of the aspects of wedding planning, music was one of the most important to me, and as a child of the 80's, I've always had a dream of having an 80's wedding resonant with Erasure, Bon Jovi, and all the best songs of my childhood. My husband and I spoke with a few different DJs, and they all felt very similar. They generally belonged to DJ mills where you talk almost exclusively with the corporate office and barely talk to the DJs themselves before the wedding. You also don't necessarily get a sense of what kind of music the DJs like themselves so that you can't tell if their tastes mesh with your taste. Luckily, our wedding planner came to the rescue and introduced us to Nate! From the very first conversation, we could tell that he was a sweet, down-to-earth person who loved the same type of music we did and could give us the wedding that we were hoping for. He was incredibly easy to work with and very attentive to our song requests. He didn't miss a beat (pun intended) when we requested that he play 80's TV show theme songs before the wedding ceremony. He timed the songs perfectly when my husband and his parents, our wedding party, and then my parents and I walked down the aisle, even though we asked for three different songs to be played. The wedding felt like it was a well-choreographed 80's musical tribute, and just this morning, when I was listening to Spotify and heard one of the songs that he played during the wedding dance party, I could remember how happy and perfectly content my husband and I were on our wedding day thanks to Nate's music. read more

Nate, there aren't enough stars on here to show our appreciation for you! We found Nate through a google search and scheduled a face-to-face meeting. His attitude and personality were perfect for our event. Nate was cognizant of our budget and communicated with us throughout the entire time leading up to our event. Nate asked relevant questions and was genuinely interested in our day being perfect. The day of, his setup and music were absolutely on point. He also made sure the day was flowing appropriately by telling people when to sit for food, cake, dancing etc. I would whole-heartedly recommend Nate to DJ at ANY event! read more

Nate was a breeze to work with! He always got back to our emails within the day and usually within an hour :) There were a few minor changes the day of our wedding, and our timeline ran a bit behind, and he worked through the changes with such professionalism! We really enjoyed Nate's music and he read our audience so well - we danced the entire night! As reference, Nate DJed our reception at a restaurant in downtown San Francisco, and he had never DJed there before. He did a walk through a week before the wedding so there weren't any surprises for the day-of. Love the thoroughness. We would highly recommend Nate to any family or friend needing a DJ for their event! read more

Nate was absolutely fantastic. He was recommended to us by someone who referred to him as a DJ who "doesn't play the usual crappy wedding music," and we were not disappointed. Bullet points on his awesomeness: -Incredibly responsive: anyone who has planned a wedding understands how valuable this quality is; I never waited more than a few hours to hear back when I contacted him. -Thorough: Nate sent us a detailed questionnaire before the wedding, and he clearly read through it carefully, as was reflected in his performance. -Accommodating: edited songs for our ceremony perfectly, drove to the (out of town) venue for an early walkthrough, helped provide sound equipment for our friend playing during cocktail hour, set up a projector and a slideshow during the reception. This guy did it all and was super nice about it. -Reliable: punctual, straightforward, honest. -Super nice guy! We really liked working with him! Bottom line: Whatever your tastes, Nate clearly endeavors to tailor the music to suit his clients, and he is a joy to work with; I cannot speak highly enough of him and am so glad we found him! Thanks for making our day so special, Nate! read more

Nate was one of our favorite vendors that we worked with and we could not recommend him more highly to everyone we know. We first saw him play at a friends' wedding, where he set a great atmosphere and kept everyone on the dance floor until the end of the night. When it was our turn to get married, we had no doubt who we wanted to dj for our wedding! He went the extra mile by editing our first dance song multiple times, as well as the songs for our processional and recessional. We had complete trust in him handling the music and audio throughout the ceremony/reception, everything went perfectly. He made sure to incorporate all the songs we requested and had the perfect playlist on the dance floor. Many friends have said how much they enjoyed the music at our wedding. On top of that, Nate was always super responsive and professional, he delivered everything as promised. Working with him made this part of wedding planning as easy as can be. He is a warm, wonderful person and we hope to have a chance to work with him again in the future! read more

We could not have been happier with our choice of Nick Schuster of Caliber DJs to provide music and audio at our backyard wedding! Along with our family and friends, we were delighted with the music Nick selected and the embellishments he added to a diverse list of artists and genres we sent over in the months beforehand! Nick is a true professional, was a pleasure to work with, and was always responsive from our initial inquiry up through the event itself. He even arrived an hour ahead of schedule on the wedding day to ensure that there was plenty of time to set up and accommodate any last minute contingencies. We truly feel Caliber DJs helped to make our event special, and could not recommend them highly enough to anyone seeking a memorable soundtrack on their special day. -Karen & Matt, Sacramento, Oct. 2017 read more

We had a great time with Caliber DJs for our Sept 2019 wedding in Healdsburg. Nate was so much fun to work with and incredibly professional. He was flexible and responsive throughout the process, and was totally happy to jump in and provide music for our ceremony when we decided not to do live music, and also to come with us to another location for the afterparty (and promised to play until we closed it out!). He did a great job of taking our (short) list of must-plays and likes, and adding his own touches. The music selections were fantastic not just for the dance party, but also for dinner, cocktail hour, etc. And, he was a great emcee, saying all the things he needed to say but staying in the background. (We've been at some weddings with overbearing emcees and they are the WORST... Nate just could not have been more professional). And, the fees were very reasonable, especially given that he was with us from ~2pm until midnight! Only two flags: the music was a bit loud during the wedding and we had to ask him to turn it down, and the mic didn't work at the beginning for my dad's toast (he fixed it midway through). But both relatively minor things in the grand scheme of things. We would recommend working with Nate! read more

Nate killed it!!! I couldn't have been happier with Nate and Caliber DJs! Definitely the right choice for our wedding. We were married on the beach so we were a little worried about the sound. His system is out of this world. People halfway down the beach could hear us. Fantastic! We broke our reception into 3 different types of music...and Nate delivered each time. Guests were coming up to us saying how great the music was. As music people, that's exactly what we wanted to hear. From 90s alternative to dance hits of today, Nate has it covered!! And he's flexible. We had a few guest requests that he was able to add into the mix at a moment's notice. Caliber DJs are professional, experienced, fun, and you can tell they love what they do. I am so happy they were a part of our big day. I can't say enough positive things. 10+ stars!!! read more

Nate and Edwin from Caliber were simply fantastic. Couldn't recommend them more. My wife and I felt like we were well taken care of. Thanks again, guys! read more

DJ Nate did not disappoint as my wedding DJ. He handled the music and equipment for ceremony, dinner, and dancing. His experience was helpful as he was able to adapt to the windy conditions, shuffle a new dance song at the last minute, and play a terrific mix of pop and Ethiopian music to appease the palates of all guests. read more
