NYX came highly recommended to us for our daughter's wedding and they delivered on that recommendation! A huge thank you to Howie and team for helping to deliver a perfect wedding. During the planning they were very professional, responsive, and listened to our desires . From the beautiful uplighting to the perfect introductions to the professional and incredible DJ set during the reception, Howie had our guests dancing all night long. Everything was so smooth, and our guests kept complimenting how great our music was! Our dance floor was packed all night, with Howie's energy and incredible music selection.

We had an awesome experience working with NYX Events for our second (and final) family mitzvah. This time we worked with Emcee Chris and his crew who were absolutely fantastic. 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 put on a great Sweet 16 Party for my daughter. The DJ, Andrew, did an amazing job of keeping the kids dancing and Montello was a terrific Photo Booth manager. Everyone I worked with was professional and courteous. Highly recommend them for your next party.

The team at NYX were great! We worked with them on my daughter's Bat Mitzvah. Chris G. did an amazing job keeping the kids engaged and got the kids and adults on the dance floor all night! Everyone from booking through event itself were easy to work with, and they were committed to ensuring the party was a big success. We worked with them on the Emcee, DJ, dancers, Glow theme, and photo booth--it was PERFECT! BIG THANKS to the NYX and especially Chris G!

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.

The best of the best! There is literally no better DJ company in the DC metropolitan area. NYX is professional, easy to work with, creative, fun, and they bring the energy every single time!!!! You will feel like yours is the ONLY party that matters (and yet somehow they manage to do multiple events a weekend)! There is no other party like an NYX party! We loved Chris G who rocked the party all night!

We used NYX Entertainment for our daughter’s Bat Mitzvah and they were absolutely amazing! Emcee Mikey B was so fun to work with and did an incredible job keeping the energy high all night. The photo booth was a huge hit with both kids and adults, and the hype dancers got everyone on the dance floor. The whole NYX team was on time, professional, and so easy to work with. They truly made the celebration unforgettable. Highly recommend!

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!
