Wow - what an amazing experience it was to work with DJ Allan Reiss and the team from OFX Events at a bat mitzvah this past weekend. From the planning stages through to the event itself they were professional, on top of every detail, and truly a pleasure to work with.

The party never stopped with people on the dance floor ALL NIGHT LONG, and the family was so incredibly thrilled. The emcee and dancer really knew how to get everyone involved and keep the flow of the event going - with smiles on the whole time. We will definitely be calling them again and recommend them for any event DJ needs!

We can not say enough positive things about DJ Allan Reiss and MC Adam Mack of Original FX! We just had our 3rd mitzvah Event and we and our guests had the most amazing fun night! We had so many positive comments from our guests about the DJ, MC and our 2 dancers. We and our guests had a night to remember for sure!! Working with Allan and Adam is such a breath of fresh air. Their attentiveness to detail and professionalism is exemplary. They coordinated and organized a perfect flow and truly take the time to learn the family and the Mitzvah child of honor to make the night perfect for everyone. We are grateful for their behind the scenes planning process and phone calls where they truly “get you” We couldn’t think of using anyone else.

It is hard to understand why there are only 5 stars out there to honor an organization and Team like Original FX DJs. I am a single Dad, Psychologist, a healthcare exec in the Office of Experience and a person who had to “get it right” for the most most wonderful daughter in the world. “It” was her Bat Mitsvah. Though everything and everyone is so important in pulling an experience off like this, no group could be more important than the music-entertainment and overall experience for a family, not to mention over 75 invited children who all came with expectations, based on other parties. OK, I could write bibles why Entertainment is important but instead let me tell you why Original FX DJs is the only one to call. This group CARES! And they pull off that caring with class, expertise, emotional intelligence and a spirit that few other organizations could have done. Alan and his team from the start met with my daughter and myself and from that point on we felt like a member of the their family and they felt like a member of ours. They not only hit the ball out of the park in the planning process but they delivered the most amazing experience for everyone the night of the event. And the proof is I have not stopped hearing rave reviews from all the kids and those in attendance, The Team that Alan and his partner brings are top rate and kept everyone dancing and in a state of elation to the very end. I cannot recommend this group enough to anyone and everyone who is reading this and wants to make an evening special for someone so special in their lives. This group gets one hundred+ stars from my daughter, her friends and myself. Thank you Alan and Original FX DJs and your amazing Team!

Original FX knows how to party!!! We had our daughter’s Bat Mitzvah last night. Allan, Adam and the dance crew kept the party going all night long. The interaction with our family and all of our guests was INCREDIBLE!!! The kids were constantly entertained with lots of games and fun dances with the Original FX crew. And Allan and Adam were a pleasure to work with during the planning process. We could not be happier with the way everything turned out. We’ve heard so many compliments from our guests too. Original FX is simply the best!!!!
— Rhonda Berkenfeld
Just experienced Original FX for my wedding and I couldn’t be happier with the services! Allan was our DJ and right from the start he was awesome. We met before hand so he could understand my vision and from then on he made sure that happened. He quickly responded to any e-mail I would send him (and I had lots of requests!). On the day of the wedding, Allan showed up so early to set up. The lights were outstanding. Everyone at my wedding loved the music and couldn’t be happier! And the MC, Adam, that was with him was so energetic and had everyone up and moving. Thanks again, Allan!
— Francine Butler
I absolutely recommend Original FX DJs! They were a pleasure to work with from the planning (especially working with us for the entrance songs) to the actual party. Adam was an incredible MC and has the best demeanor. He kept the amazing energy going all night. Allan was a great DJ and played what the kids love and threw in some songs for the adults as well. The dancers were also great and kept the kids moving all night! The lighting added a great vibe to the whole party! It was a night we will never forget!
— Meredeth Mendez
They were great to work with! They listened to our requests. The set up looked great and EVERYONE had an amazing time and danced and participated, at all ages.
I highly recommend original FX and their whole team!
The breakdancers were amazing too!
— Elyse Gastwirth
We hired Allan and Adam for my son’s Bar Mitzvah party! From start to finish, it was an incredible experience. The music selection was on point, and the MC had everyone on their feet dancing the whole time. The equipment and setup were top-notch, and the light show added a fantastic atmosphere. Our guests are still talking about how much fun they had, and it’s all thanks to our amazing Original FX crew. We’ll definitely be booking them again for our next event. Highly recommended!
— Sasha Kulka
Working with Allan Reiss/Original FX was an absolute pleasure from the first time I spoke with Allan on the phone through the moment the lights went on at 11PM as my daughter Hallie’s fabulous party came to an end!!!! The stage setup, the lighting, and the overall ambiance was amazing - better than I ever imagined! Emcee Adam was beyond wonderful with the kids and I heard great things about the dancers as well. In my phone conversations with Allan prior to the party, I felt more and more excited. Initially, I was concerned that we only had about 25 kids attending. However, with Original FX working their magic, the energy flowed and kids were together on the dance floor the entire night having a blast! The adults got going too and danced the night away. I very strongly recommend giving Allan at call at Original FX for your next event!
— Sue Lichtenstein
Original FX DJs did an incredible job providing entertainment at our daughter’s Bat Mitzvah party. Adam was a fantastic MC and they were able to meet all of our special requests, including an original movie screening, silent disco and more. They were a pleasure to work with: professional, clear, prompt, and very engaging. They kept the party well-organized and exciting. I highly recommend them for your future events!
— Shayna Skarf
Original FX DJs Allan and Adam were amazing. They kept the crowd going all night at our daughter’s bat mitzvah. Everyone had a blast. Allan and Adam were even more wonderful to work with. They were responsive, professional and a working with them was a pleasure. Allan and Adam took a personal interest in making our celebration the best experience possible. I look forward to using them again for future events. Highly recommend!
— Lisbeth Rock
Highly recommend. Very involved in the community. Thank you for outstanding service!
— Gabriel Menashe
I recommend this company for any event! Allan was nice, professional, and personable. He knew what we needed to get the crowd going. He was there early and made sure everything was set up and working before the guests arrived.
— Melissa Clarke
Allan and Adam are super professional. Allan was the DJ for our event and he totally got our team with his choice of music. Our team members were dancing up a storm. The only bad part is that the party had to come to and end.
Thanks for everything Alan.
— Jay Katari
Best thing we could have done for our wedding was to hire Original FX. My top priority at the wedding was lighting and music as that sets the tone for the entire evening. Original FX and Allan turned an otherwise very Beige room into the most amazing atmosphere of light and sound. The music was perfectly synced with the wonderful array of lights that made the room and the party truly incredible. The DJ was top notch, aylung our favorites and feeling the vibes of the room to make the entire party time go through the motions and he was so great with requests from the guests.
Our entire wedding celebration was a huge success in great part to the great work and professionalism of Allan and Original FX
— Max Kellerstein
Looking for a Dj, MC and dancers? Look no further as Original FX is your team. Customer service was amazing, detail orientated, and they kept the crowd going all night. Allan was able to calm my anxieties regarding my daughters Bat Mitzvah and the entire team was flawless all night! Highly recommend them for your next event
— Kim Finston
This was our first bar mitzvah and had no idea where to begin! Our son had seen Original FX at another party and he said “I want them for my party!” From our first conversation, Allan was personable, professional, and went above and beyond to make sure all of the details were covered. He gave me names of other vendors to reach out to and helped to set my mind at ease. The day of our event, his staff was super friendly and welcoming to us and our guests and the music was awesome! He knew how to play to our crowd and “read the room”. We really couldn’t have asked for a better overall experience. Thank you Allan and your staff for making Avi’s day so special!
— Alissa Baum
We used their DJ Allan for our 30-year high school reunion and he was great. Very easy to work with and professional. The music really brought us back and we partied like it was 1992! Highly recommend!
— Tina Patregnani
I would highly recommend Allan and his team at Original Fx DJs. My daughter’s 13th birthday party was amazing thanks to the entertainment that was provided. My daughter and her friends all had a blast and were kept entertained all night with music and games. The MC was beyond incredible and really kept all the kids engaged. The energy of the room was just amazing! We continue to get rave reviews about the entertainment.
It was clear from my first phone call with Allan that he is beyond professional and has so much passion for his work. He kept in contact and provided me with so much useful information and tips on how to make the party special. The extra services that we added, such as the Gobo and neon dance cubes, really made a difference. He took extra time to speak with my daughter and make sure that the playlist and entertainment was exactly what she wanted.
We are beyond grateful that we were recommended to Original FX. Thank you Allan for all that you did to make Ava’s party an event that she will never forget.
— John DiSilvestro
I highly recommend!! My daughters sweet 16 party turned out amazing!!!! They had everyone at the party involved and dancing the entire time!!! Such a high energy party that my daughter will never forget! From start too finish they were the best!!! Best dj’s ever! Thank you so much for making my daughters day so incredible!
— Loren Cohen
FX DJs and Allan were fantastic! He kept our party on track when our dinner got delayed, adjusting on the fly and making it all seem perfectly planned. He played all our favorite tunes and kept the kids on the dance floor all night.
— Stu Friedman
We hired Original FX to DJ our daughters Sweet 16 and they completely exceeded our expectations!! DJ Allen couldn’t have been more accommodating about all of our requests!! He kept the party moving at a perfect pace and the kids loved the music he played!! They literally never stopped dancing!! My daughter’s friends came to school on Monday saying, “We Love DJ Allen!!” I’d say that’s a pretty big compliment coming from teenage kids!! You definitely hit the mark in our opinion and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend or hire you for our next event!!
— Shannon Lucas
We hired Original FX for our 2 daughters Bnai Mitzvah and they crushed it! Besides our 2 daughters, the MC, DJ and Dancers were the highlight of our party.
I can not say anything better about this team. They had the kids dancing all night. Hire them today for your party!
— David Chametsky
Mom today was the best day ever” those were the magic words that I needed to hear in order to confirm our event was a success! We hired Original FX for our daughter’s Bat Mitzvah Luncheon reception, and we do not regret it. They were fantastic. They were very responsive, professional, and attentive to details from the initial phone call. We hosted a smaller daytime event, and they kept the kids on the dancefloor and engaged the whole time! My daughter ( a little on the reserved side) was concerned she wouldn’t feel comfortable dancing in broad daylight in front of so many adults but once the music started, and with the energy of the DJ&MC all that went out the door. You won’t regret having them as part of your event- in a space full of unreliable vendors, Original FX stands apart and is a team that you can trust and count on.
— Norma Schwartz
Original FX, you guys are Awesome!!!

We would highly recommend you guys to everyone!!
Love,
GG and Austin
— GG & Austin
I can not say enough about Allan and Adam! These two were the absolute BEST!! The kids at my daughter’s Bat Mitzvah didn’t sit down once! No one looked at their phones either! The adults were just as active! I highly recommend these guys!! They will make your party the talk of the town!! High energy and world class professionalism!
— Ronni Bergeron
Allan and Adam from Original FX DJ’s were both amazing!!! We spoke to them in advance about our hopes and requests for the event and they did not disappoint. My family and friends partied and danced for hours thanks to their amazing entertainment... wow did they bring the fun!!! I’m so thrilled we had the opportunity to partner with them to make my daughter’s bat mitzvah so special!!!
— Renee Jaffe
Amazing DJ! Amazing MC! Amazing dancers! High energy, great songs, beyond professional. They kept all the kids and adults up and dancing at our bat mitzvah party the entire time. Thank you for making our celebration fantastic!
— Debbie Klinger
I cannot say enough how AMAZING Allan and Adam are! From first contact to wedding day I had zero issues making sure they would provide us the entertainment we needed. Our guests could not stop dancing, so much that the photo booth attendants were jealous of everyone being too busy on the dance floor to take pictures. The energy in the room was absolutely electric! The uplighting and motion lights set the mood for our grand entry, dinner, and then party time! The music selection was perfect and they incorporated our requests without issue. Thank you guys again for helping to make our wedding the best day of our lives
— Megan Kim
Allan was amazing!!! We hired Original FX for our Principal’s retirement party and Allan made sure everyone was up and dancing! We plan to use Original FX for all of our upcoming school events!
— Heather Confer
Absolutely the Best Choice we could have made for our Daughter, Zoe’s Bat Mitzvah at the Loft! Adam, Allan and their dancers had the kids dancing all night to the end! The kids wanted to keep going. Really organized our event timeline perfectly and made it stress free Perfect combination of songs for kids and for adults. Highly recommend!
— Dr. Michael Bruck
Hi Allan and Adam,
I just wanted to say thank you again for such a wonderful evening on Saturday. Even my mother, who says everything is too loud, said the energy was just right. And my (tiny bit snotty) cousin who’s been to like 100 bar mitzvahs thought it was great as well. And I have to especially thank you for name that tune. I mean I felt like it was rigged on my behalf even though it wasn’t. I feel like everyone had a good time and you were a huge part of that. I will absolutely recommend you to others.
