Our Awards & Reviews
Maryland & DC's Most Trusted Wedding Entertainers
When you are planning a once-in-a-lifetime celebration, you need a team with a proven track record. NYX Entertainment & Events is consistently recognized by industry leaders and couples alike for delivering elite wedding production across the Greater Washington DC area, from grand hotel ballrooms in the District to scenic vineyard estates in Maryland. These awards and reviews represent our unwavering commitment to flawless execution, packed dance floors, and a completely stress-free planning experience. We do not just meet your expectations; we redefine them.
From start to finish, NYX Entertainment was phenomenal. They provided the MC, DJ, party dancers, and a photo booth with attendant for our daughter Delilah’s Sneaker-themed Bat Mitzvah, and the entire production completely exceeded our expectations.
MC CRōME was outstanding, charismatic, engaging, and incredibly skilled at reading the room. He kept the energy high all night long, seamlessly moving the crowd and making sure the dance floor stayed packed. Delilah barely left the floor the entire night and truly had the time of her life, which is exactly what every parent hopes for.
The DJ, dancers, and photo booth team were equally impressive. The flow, music, lighting, and overall vibe had guests constantly coming up to us saying how blown away they were by the production. It felt polished, high-energy, and perfectly tailored to our theme and crowd.
Thank you, NYX Entertainment, for helping us create such a memorable and joyful celebration for Delilah. While we may be done with mitzvahs, we already know that in 10–15 years, you’ll be our first call for wedding entertainment. That’s how confident we are in this team.
If you’re looking for an entertainment company that truly delivers…NYX is it.
There were a lot of moving parts for our unconventional grand arrival to the ceremony by boat, so we had a longer processional than most- and the NYX team coordinated the ceremony music timing perfectly to where it was a flawless production.
Everyone loved the DJ, he kept the crowd engaged and dancing. Special effects throughout were so fun, as were the surprise glow sticks. And the Photo Booth was also such a fun touch!
Loved that Kitty was able to sit back and relax on her big day, thanks to the NYX team. I’d recommend Howie and his team for any special event!
