    Our guests have NOT STOPPED TALKING about the incredible, out-of-the-box, unique and FUN entertainment NYX brought to our daughter's bat mitzvah celebration. The dance floor was packed the entire night with guests of all ages, creating a celebration that truly everyone could enjoy. If you are tired of seeing the same thing at party after party, NYX will remind you what innovation and creativity look like. They are truly one step ahead of the industry. Howie and his team were incredible to work with from start to finish, taking all the stress out of the planning process. We found NYX to be respectful of our budget and also fully committed to making sure it was a night no one will soon forget!

    Howie was our DJ and he was incredible! Got so many compliments on the music and DJ. He was very laid back and really knew exactly what to play with telling him our taste in our music.

    We hired NYX for our daughters wedding. Howie T. was our DJ and let me say.....he did an AmAzInG job!!! He had the party rocking all night long. The dance floor was filled all night and no one wanted to leave. The Bride and Groom said on multiple occasions that the DJ was fantastic. Our daughter said 'I felt like I was in a Vegas club' 'He (Howie) was awesome'. I was so pleased that they were happy and they had a memorable fun night. Along with being an over-the-top entertainer he was a great guy. Very friendly and super easy to work with. He was the first DJ vendor I called and after talking to him I immediately booked him knowing that I trusted him with this important occasion. He didn't let us down. I would absolutely recommend him for any occasion - he was the best!

    Howie at NXY came highly recommended to us. We were immediately impressed by how comforting and confident he was that he could create the party atmosphere we wanted at our wedding. He worked with us to make sure all of our favorite songs were played and that the event stayed up-tempo and on schedule. Not an easy task. NXY and Howie also did our lights, AV and photo-booth. All get rave reviews. Most importantly, my wedding was a blast! All our loved ones had a great time. He really worked with us, the venue and the crowd to make sure things stayed fun and the dance floor stayed packed. Thanks Howie!!

    Howie and DJ Mario made my wedding absolutely the most fun, perfect, memorable day!!!! Howie is THE man and knows exactly how to deliver what we wanted for our wedding. At the very first meeting with Howie, he said he has THE best DJs that will literally ensure every person is out on the dance floor. Well, the wedding day was here before we knew it and at our reception, LITERALLY ALL our guests both young and old were out on the dance floor! DJ Mario had a great playlist for our night and I HIGHLY recommend NYX entertainment!!!

    We have used NYX Entertainment twice over the last two years (for both my sons' Bar-Mitzvah parties). We just used EMCEE Chrome and the party rocked! Howie was the DJ (lucky us!) and everybody danced all night. I was amazed and how engaged they kept both the kids and adults. Chrome knocked it out of the house with his amazing dance moves and his charisma. Howie rocked the music all night long. When the last song came on, everyone sighed as they did not want the night to end. The ended up playing one more song because guests were so disappointed it was over. And what can I say about the dancers! They were awesome. All four of them taught the adults dance moves so they could keep up with the kids. I could not have asked for a better EMCEE / DJ / or Dancers. Thank you NYX Entertainment for the best event ever!

    NYX is the only DJ we contacted for our wedding after reading reviews on the website and talking to Howie, the person in charge there. He is a very energetic and responsive DJ that makes my husband and me feel we need him in our wedding to make everyone happy. And he and his assistant did it! All of our guests were happy and enjoying the music and dancing in the wedding. They even found the Chinese songs that we requested before the wedding! They are very flexible in responding to our guests' request of playing different songs. Anyway, We are very glad we found NYX and had them in the wedding. Thanks very much!

    Howie and NYX were referred to me by our venue, Vis Arts, in Rockville, MD, for our daughter's wedding on 9.12.15. We contracted to have an emcee (Howie), a DJ, uplighting and music for the ceremony, cocktail hour and dinner/party. Howie completely surpassed our very high expectations. The wedding was a complete blast with everyone up on their feet from the very first song to the end of the party. A couple of the things we really thought they did well: (1) My daughter and husband had very distinct music taste (metal!) which we were not a fan of. Howie was able to find a way to integrate their tastes so incredibly appropriately with music that the mainstream crowd would love. Cannot tell you how well this worked out -- it worked to our advantage and to the vibe of the party. Truly fantastic! (2) Howie served as our emcee -- WOW! He was the life of the party and I had no idea how much a part of it he would be and he truly got the crowd rocking! (3) Howie's DJ was exceptional -- the mixing of the music, the quality -- just fantastic! (4) My daughter, son-in-law and I really clicked with Howie upon our first meeting. Also, he was a great advisor on creating a night that would be full of magic, laughs and fun. So very professional. Everyone attending our wedding said it was the best wedding they had ever been to. I attribute a big part of that praise to NYX Entertainment and I would highly recommend them and use them again.

    My husband and I had two criteria for our wedding: (1) an epic hora; and (2) a crowded dance floor. Howie Teger of NYX Entertainment delivered on both! We got so many compliments on the D.J., how accessible the music was for our multi-generational affair, and how much fun everyone had dancing at our party. We hired Howie because we were looking for a true M.C. to read the room and keep the party going. Howie did not disappoint. Howie also worked closely with my husband, who is also a musician, to execute our vision for custom music at our ceremony and at our reception. While we had to supply the equipment to make some of that happen (also a way for us to save some money), Howie was extremely responsive and easy to work with and arrived in plenty of time to help our musicians soundcheck before the ceremony. Everything was flawless. I wish I could relive every minute.

    We saw NYX Live at a friend's wedding and were so impressed we used them for our own, and they exceeded our expectations! We did the 4 band member/DJ combo, which gives you the best of both worlds. You get to hear the songs mostly as you are used to hearing them (rather than a band's cover) but you get live musicians playing with the music and a band leader to engage the crowd. They also plan out the whole timeline of the reception (which you can then send to your photographer, venue coordinator, etc, making everyone's lives easier), with breaks between dancing for the food, creating one big long party. They were truly awesome - our dance floor was packed the entire time! I cannot overstate how much fun we all had! They also provided our ceremony music which simplified things so much, as well as bringing awesome uplighting to add to the venue's decor. They also use a website where you can put in your song preferences and other important information for the reception, which is a helpful feature. Howie was great to work with - just trust him with his ideas and suggestions and you'll have a fabulous party like we did. Couldn't be happier with NYX!

    I hired NYX Entertainment and Events for my son's bar mitzvah party (age 13) at Positano in Bethesda, MD. I had an emcee, DJ, and some dancers. They brought lights as well as light-up giveaways (rings, necklaces, hats, etc.). They were fantastic! We had approx. 60 kids of varying ages at the party, and every one of them had a great time! The emcee had games for the kids to play in between the dance sets. The dancers got everyone on the floor (adults too). The emcee oversaw the parents' entrance, the boy of honor's entrance, the Hora, the chair lift, the mother and son's dance, line dances, etc. The DJ played all of my requests. They really made this event a huge success!

    NYX was the best! Affordable, full service, latest technology, and of course the inimitable Howie Teger. We didn't have a "band budget" and we also wanted the flexibility to play all types of music that you get from a DJ, but having just a DJ seemed a little flat. Howie suggested his unique "Fusion" concept and it was amazing! We had a DJ, but we also had an MC and two live musicians. The musicians jammed with the tunes spun by the DJ giving the event an incredible energy - and the MC (Chris) was off the charts. From the first song to the last, the dance floor was packed. And I just don't mean my friends - EVERYONE was dancing. Chris also handled all of the announcements, kept all the toasts and other events on track, knew when to speed it up, or slow it down, and when to be a little quiet so folks could mingle. We also had some special requests - my aunt and uncle sang during the ceremony and NYX provided the equipment for them as well as some nice background music during cocktails. Finally, we decided to add a photo booth for fun at the last minute - also provided by NYX. I didn't think most people would use it, but NYX gives you all of the photos from the entire night (and of course your guests get ones to take). What a riot to see almost every guest did a picture in funny hats and glasses! The whole thing was about 1/2 the price of a band from another agency we interviewed.

    NYX Entertainment was completely AWESOME. Our wedding was the most fun party and Howie kept the energy going from start to finish. They are awesome to work with and have many options to choose from as far as wedding packages go. We chose to have them do our ceremony, cocktail hour and have the DJ/Band combo for our reception and it was phenomenal! All of our guests were dancing all night long and everyone continues to comment on how awesome our band was. Music was VERY important to us and we were very hands on about selections. They give you a login to their computer system that allows you to customize choices for 'must plays' 'do not plays' and 'maybe plays' which was a really great way to lay things out. You also fill out songs you want for key moments like dance with dad, dance with mom, cut the cake, toss the bouquet, etc... We told Howie what we wanted and more importantly, what we didn't want, and he took it from there and proceeded to make our wedding night one of the most fun parties EVER. Tons of fun from start to finish and cannot thank Howie and his team at NYX enough for being such an important part of our special day. Love, love, love NYX!

    NYX made our wedding! From the music to the Emcee to the live instruments; our guests didn't leave the dance floor all night. When our wedding ended, nobody was ready to leave. They played every song we asked them to, kept in perfect sync with our timeline and their wonderful communication skills and willingness to do whatever they could to make our night perfect made them a pleasure to work with. They totally rocked our wedding and a week and a half later we are still getting calls from friends and family saying it was THE best wedding they have ever been to.

    MC Chris was just tremendous. Energetic, accommodating, funny, fabulous in every way. And dancers...WOW. I love that the female dancer wore gold pants to match our theme, without us even asking. And the male dancer really got the boys out on the floor.

    Everyone had such a great time. We could have just had the NYX team and ordered Dominos, and it all would have been perfect.

    NYX Entertainment and Events is top notch. Our family has hired Howie and his staff on two occasions for our children's mitzvah parties. Both experiences were wonderful. They set a lively and fun tone throughout, and I consider their work the heartbeat of our parties. At each party we hired additional musicians for the hora. Howie showed great skill in seamlessly integrating these musicians with the DJ sets. He was so much fun to work with and it's obvious that his DJs and dancers love what they do. The kids AND adults had a blast on the dance floor. They even worked our party in the midst of a big DC snowstorm. True professionals.

    There are no words to express our gratitude for everything you did to make this weekend so amazing. We were completely blown away by everything. I cannot tell you how many people came up to me to say that Howie was the best DJ they'd ever seen. And people LOVED the dancers!!!! The whole thing was perfect. Sharone completely out-did himself with the decor. I could go on and on. Lawrence wanted me to make sure you, Howie, and Sharone know that we would be more than happy to serve as a glowing reference for all of you. Please feel free to let potential clients reach out to us.

    Thank you just doesn't seem enough. You are the best!!!

    Chris, the DJ, and dancer did a fantastic job at Noah's bar mitzvah! Everyone raved about what a fantastic MC we had and what a fantastic time they had at the party. Chris got everyone involved; he was professional, fun, prompt, and we were thrilled with his performance! We would definitely recommend him again for other events. The green screen was a lot of fun and everyone enjoyed that too! Thanks for all of your help and suggestions!

    My wife and I hired NYX Live for wedding and we couldn't have been more thrilled! We had a packed dance floor the whole night and the flow of the wedding was amazing! The team was on point the whole night. We also had musicians for our ceremony and used them for lighting and uplighting.Highly Recommend!!!! Thank you for an unbelievable night! Our guests are still talking about it.

    We had a fantastic experience with NYX and Sandra Teger! Thanks to them, our daughter's bat mitzvah was a huge success! The DJ and emcee we used through NYX were incredible and very entertaining. Sandra had great ideas on how to make our event a success and she was so helpful in providing names of vendors. We could not have done it without Sandra and NYX!! We highly recommend NYX as well as Sandra's "day of" planning service to anyone planning any type of event.
