Birthdays, anniversaries, graduations, milestone celebrations — Marvilous DJs brings 15+ years of professional DJ and MC entertainment to private parties across the New York tri-state area.
The best private parties feel effortless — but that's the trick. Effortless takes a pro.
A milestone birthday, a 25th anniversary, a graduation, a backyard celebration — every one has its own crowd, its own energy, its own people who need to be on that dance floor. We've done it for fifteen years: Marcus reads the room, mixes the music your guests actually want, and runs the night so the host gets to be a guest at their own party.
No surprises, no fine print. Here's what comes standard with every private party we take on.
Three clear starting points — each one fully customizable to your celebration.
Birthday parties, graduation celebrations, and intimate gatherings up to 75 guests.
Sweet 16s, Quinceañeras, milestone birthdays — a full party experience with MC energy.
Go all out. Full production for large parties, milestone events, and unforgettable nights.
Every party is different — date, venue, guest count, and production all shape the final number. Tell us about yours and we'll send a custom quote. Packages start at $900, and popular dates book quickly.
Every package can be tailored further — add a live element, or build in the production touches that turn a good party into a great one.
Pair the DJ with live talent for an upgrade that lifts the whole night — a saxophonist over the toast, a percussionist driving the dance floor, dancers leading a routine. Real energy, mixed seamlessly into the set.
The DJ keeps the floor full. The live moment makes it a story.
Live entertainment is quoted custom to your venue and vision — mention it in your inquiry and Marcus will build it into your proposal.
Transform the venue with customizable LED uplighting in your party colors.
A custom name or monogram projected onto the dance floor, wall, or backdrop.
Open-air photo booth with custom prints, digital sharing, and unlimited sessions.
Dramatic cold spark effects for grand entrances and headline moments.
An immersive 360 video booth capturing slow-motion clips guests share instantly.
Extend the party — DJ and MC available beyond your package's included hours.
Mix and match any add-ons to build your perfect night. All add-ons can be included in your custom quote.
Throwing the party shouldn't feel like work.
Every Marvilous client gets a private online portal — so the music, the timeline, and every detail live in one place instead of scattered across texts and calls.
Every decision, deadline, and detail tracked in one place.
Build your must-plays and do-not-plays anytime inspiration strikes.
Reach Marcus directly — no phone tag, with your full history saved.
Your run-of-show, song lists, and documents — always current.
It's included with every booking. It's just how we work.
Every review here was submitted by a host we actually worked with — no scraped quotes, no stock praise.
Yours could be the first.
We're gathering reviews from our most recent private-party hosts. In the meantime, we'd love to tell you about them ourselves — just ask.
Tell us about your celebration — Marcus replies personally, usually within a day. No call center, no pushy sales script. Just a real conversation about your night.
Birthdays and milestone birthdays, anniversaries, graduations, retirement parties, holiday parties, backyard and house parties — essentially any private celebration with a crowd to get on the dance floor.
We recommend reaching out at least 4–8 weeks ahead for a private party, and earlier for larger milestone events. Popular spring and summer weekend dates book quickly, so the earliest conversation is always the safest.
Absolutely — house parties and backyard celebrations are a big part of what we do. We bring professional sound and handle setup and breakdown around your space and schedule.
Yes — it's your party. You build your must-plays and your do-not-plays, and we read the room to keep every generation of guest on the floor. The final call on the music is always yours.
Packages start at $900. Your final quote depends on the date, venue, guest count, hours of coverage, and any add-ons. Send us the details and we'll build a custom quote — no obligation.
We're based in Jersey City and serve NYC, Long Island, and high-end New Jersey, plus the wider tri-state area. Travel fees may apply outside the NYC metro area, and we'll always make them clear up front in your quote.
