MARX entertainment

MARX entertainment did an excellent job with «Casino Night» for my employer. Mark and Gladys were a pleasure to work with and was able to give me excellent advice on making the event a memorable one. The DJ was awesome and the Elvis impersonator added a wonderful touch! The event ran smoothly and the atmosphere they provided was just like a real casino. I received RAVE reviews from the attendees and they can’t wait until the next one. THANK YOU MARX entertainment!

We had a wonderful experience with Marx Entertainment! We used them for DJ, Photo Booth and Uplighting at The Society Room. The owner, Mark, was a pleasure to work with and highly professional. DJ Tommy S was awesome. He made sure the night ran smoothly and the dance floor was always full. He helped us to create a playlist for cocktail hour/​dinner that reflected our musical tastes and kept the energy level high on the dance floor until the very last song. The photo booth girls put together an adorable book with all our guests photos that we’ll get to keep and the uplighting was a perfect touch in such an elegant venue. Thank you DJ Tommy and Marx Entertainment!

This past weekend we hosted our 2^nd Bar Mitzvah in Tolland. My past experience with a DJ service was not great– they were really just kind of lame– in general and they didn’t really understand what kind of event we were having.
Things went so much better for a number of reasons;
* I told them my budget and they worked with it, apparently it really doesn’t hurt to ask.
* They set me up with a great guy who met with my son and I. He understood that we didn’t want all the usual things wanted to keep it less Bar Mitzvah-​ish — no candle lighting, motzi etc. But he had lots of experience with Bar Mitzvahs and could have done any of the things we choose not to do– and I believe do them tastefully.
* We had a plan (because we had met!) — We actually didn’t get to do all of the things we planned to but better to have had too much then not enough.
Things that were not perfect;
Apparently something wasn’t packed just right and the DJ had to leave for 20 minutes. I think if he hadn’t had to do that the party would have started at a better pace. Not really blaming him– he did what he could/​had to do– I trust, but I do think the event suffered a small amount.
I will always suggest to get things going with The Hora! (at least at a Bar Mitzvah!) — once we did that, people that had not been willing to get up and come out to dance were up and on the floor, I think if we had done that from the start– more people would have stayed the whole time. I have another son– so that is something I will remember!
Generally I was really satisfied– I felt like I knew my DJ and he knew us– and that really is a better way to go than having some surprise guy show up like my 1^st experience.
