NYX Entertainment was absolutely incredible at our wedding! Communication throughout the planning process was excellent. Bellissimo Strings created the most beautiful atmosphere during our ceremony and cocktail hour. They even learned several songs that weren’t on their set list and performed them flawlessly.

Our DJ, MC, percussionist, and horn player brought amazing energy to the reception. The music was perfect, the dance floor stayed packed, and our guests are still talking about how much fun they had. We even extended the reception by an hour, and the DJ kept the party going until the very end. We couldn’t have asked for a better entertainment team!

NYX did a fabulous job at my daughter’s wedding! Howie was great, but Heather the sax player stole the show. Three generations at the party and everyone loved NYX. They have done both of my daughters’ weddings and, alas, I’m now out of daughters.

We have had NYX come out to our back to school bash for several years, and the kids have always enjoyed it! They arrive in a timely manner, set up quickly, and spend a great deal of time making sure the kids are having fun. Everyone we've interacted with has always been incredibly professional! We can't wait to use them again next year!

I have had the pleasure of working with NYX entertainment for several weddings in DC. As a photographer, it is crucial to have clear communication with the MC so we are ready for the first dance, toasts, cake cutting and all the wonderful moments during the reception. Howie and his team are true professionals and are an absolute joy to work with. Wether you have DJ only or live music performers for the reception, the dance floor will be packed the entire time! Up lighting and high energy for the best party!

As a mitzvah planner, I work with a lot of vendors, and NYX is one of my favorite. Howie and Kitty are always so professional, attentive, and friendly. You can tell the team truly loves what they do! Special shoutout to MC Joy Jewel, she is PHENOMENAL. She dresses on theme to the party, she’s professional, she’s got great energy, and she has a great connection with the kids and adults from the moment she gets on the mic. Bonus: if you need some of the basic rentals like barstools, cubbies for favors, pipe and drape, Photo Booth, they have it!

As one of the DMV's most active Bar & Bat Mitzvah Photographers, I work with entertainment companies on every celebration. When NYX is the entertainment, I know the celebration will be unforgettable, top-notch, beyond cool and warm, personalized to the guest & family of honor, and engaging with all of the guests. Although they are superstars, they make the bar or bat mitzvah shine. I have personally worked with Chrome, Joy, Chris and Howie. They have different strengths and their chemistry with each event is always on point. Their DJs and Dancers add to the finesse and the entire evening - from their professionalism and their seamless fit into each event's vibe. That is a lot to balance, but when you work with such a veteran and professional vendor partner, this is what you get. Thank you to the entire NYX Entertainment Team for bringing the magic, the joy and happiness for me to capture!

Joy and the entire NYX team are incredible. Any DJ can make a party fun when everything goes right. Joy and NYX made sure our party was spectacular regardless of all the things that went wrong! The venue being difficult, Joy personally reached out to them to fix the issue. No challah available, no problem, let’s pivot and start the pool party a little bit early. No functioning outlets in the provided space, let’s shift to another area of the room and set up there instead. Not one guest was the wiser and everyone had an absolute blast dancing, playing games, and having a fantastic time. She was able to get everyone on the dance floor and all of the kids had the best time. I highly recommend NYX. Their entire team is amazing!

The team was super responsive, on the ball with all our guests (who were all ages), and just so much fun. I couldn't recommend NYX Events more highly!

NYX Entertainment absolutely delivered the party of our dreams.
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.

This was our second time booking NYX and they delivered yet again on a stellar experience. We hired them to provide a DJ, MC, Photo Booth, and dancer for our daughter’s bat mitzvah. Joy was the MC - we had used her three years ago for our other daughter - and she somehow managed to exceed expectations again. We recommend them for any event!

NYX produced my friend Kitty’s wedding recently, and I was blown away. As a guest and member of the wedding party, the experience from start to finish was amazing! The entire team was professional, organized and communicative.

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!

A huge thank you to Howie, Kitty, and the NYX team for all of their incredible work and delivering a perfect wedding day! Leading up to the wedding, Kitty and Howie were very responsive and had clear instructions for what we needed to prepare, and were happy to change our original invoice when we wanted additional services added. From the beautiful uplighting to the strings duo for cocktail hour, professional MCing to an incredible DJ set during the reception, Howie had our guests dancing all night long. Everything was so smooth, and our guests of all ages and backgrounds kept complimenting how great our music was! We were not expecting our dance floor to be packed all night, but Howie brought the energy. Thank you NYX team!
