What local clients say
Nick has to be the best DJ in the Schenectady area! We planned from out of state and were choosing blind. Our guests danced and smiled the entire time. One of the most interactive DJ events I have ever been to.
They met with us multiple times to gauge our music and organize our reception. Nick kept the party going for 7 hours with no lull on the dance floor. If we could do it again, we would choose NWN.
Wedding DJ for Schenectady and surrounding towns
We also DJ weddings in Niskayuna, Rotterdam, Glenville, Scotia and Duanesburg.
