Holiday Party•Reviewed on December 26, 2025•From Kensington, MD
The most important thing for a DJ is to be able to read the room. If a certain song changed the vibe, DJ Nelly D was quick to pivot. Because of this, the dance floor was rarely empty. My guests had an amazing time.

Thanks TIFFINI! It was a blast with you and your guest!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on September 29, 2025•From Front Royal, VA
Nelly D was awesome!!! I was the wedding coordinator for a young Christian couple's wedding reception. They wanted a specific list of songs to be played at their wedding reception and he delivered! He did amazing announcing the wedding party and bride and groom as they arrived at the reception as well as throughout the reception. We loved his talent so much that we added an extra hour at the end. He arrived on time, was polite, courteous, quick to make changes and kept the dance floor moving when it was time to dance. I highly recommend him and we will be using him again in the future. Thank you!!!! 5 Stars!!!

Thanks Max!! Can't wait to work with you again!!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on April 25, 2025•From Fairfax, VA
Nelly arrived to set up well before the event time. He responded to my emails about payment questions, equipment that he was bringing, song lists. I emailed him a few times and he always responded quickly. His equipment is high quality and he provided all of the songs that we requested. I would most definitely recommend and use him again!

Thank you Christine for the great feedback! It was a blast partying with you and your guest!

Since discovering Nelly D a few years ago, he's been our go-to DJ for our student business. He's professional and responsive while setting up our events. Our last event required some communication with other IT/sound professionals at the site of the event and he made himself available to get that right. He shows up early so we never have a chance to worry. Then, he gets the party started and captures the crowd instantly, no matter how old/young they are! He listens, takes requests, and keeps them moving! He's remarkable!
:
Thanks Susan for the great review!! Already looking forward to our next event!!

Hotel Event•Reviewed on February 19, 2025•From Staunton, VA
We couldn't have been happier with DJ Nelly D! He made sure we knew that he was available prior to the event in case we needed anything, he drove almost two hours to work our event, and he did a fantastic job hosting Karaoke for our retreat. Everything sounded great, and our guests had a wonderful time. We would definitely contract his services in the future!

Thanks for having me out Jerod!! Can't wait for our next event!!

Would definitely recommend to anyone.

DJ Nellie brought our sweet sixteen party to life with an incredible mix of music that have everyone on their feet from start to finish!!! He was on time and professional. We requested him on short notice and he was on-site one hour before the event. His seamless ability to read the Caribbean mix crowd created an electric vibes that that kept the party going strong. He played our requested track and added his unique touch to the vibes. This DJ is super talented, he is handsdoen the best DJ in town. If you want a good vibe and memorable, thdn look no further!!!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on October 29, 2023•From Upper Marlboro, MD
Nelly D was amazing from the beginning! I had a lot of input about the song list and a last minute change to the schedule with the addition of a musical game and he was always so accommodating and open. He came right on time and prepared. I wish I had more time for my event because the guests definitely didn't want to stop dancing at the end!

Thanks so much Ericka!! It was a pleasure to work with you and the event was so much fun!!
