Amazing, fun, personalized experience from start to finish!

DJ Jimmie Espo and 617 Weddings is flat out the best there is. Jimmie was detailed (and funny!) throughout the entire process and was an absolute Rockstar on our wedding day.

In addition to providing our guests with an outstanding entertainment experience, he tended to so many small details that we didn't even think about.

We also took advantage of the Air Booth photo kiosk (which everyone LOVED!) and the uplighting he provided for the already gorgeous Lakeview Pavilion in Foxborough, MA was just the extra touch we needed.

What really set Jimmie apart was his willingness and excitement to work on some customized aspects of our wedding like specific cuts of songs, adapting the music experience to our style, and even worked with us on a custom music edit for our choreographed entrance to the reception.

Jimmie Espo and 617 Weddings is the only choice if you want a top tier experience for you and your wedding guests!

Excellent Music and Seamless Experience

Chuck was excellent from start to finish. He was friendly, professional, flexible, and easy to work with throughout the planning process. He incorporated our playlist naturally, kept the evening moving smoothly, and brought a great energy to the dance floor. He was attentive and adapted seamlessly throughout the night. 617 Weddings also provided our ceremony violinist, photo booth, and uplighting, and everything came together perfectly. Having the full entertainment package handled by one team made planning simple and the wedding feel seamless. We highly recommend Chuck and 617 Weddings!

The MC and DJ you need for your wedding

Aziz Idhamou, from 617 Event Group, is an exceptional DJ and MC. From the first interaction we had with him almost a year ago, to every touchpoint leading to the wedding and of course the wedding day itself, Aziz was not only professional and tactical, but also very kind, funny, thoughtful and open to any preferences or requests we had while providing his input as needed. He is a people person and has a presence to him, which is exactly what you’d want in a DJ/MC. Not to mention he dresses well. I am not over exaggerating when I say he’s the full package. His DJ’ing and MC’ing skills are top notch.

From an MC perspective, he knew our reception schedule like the back of his hand and executed every request we had made to make sure everything ran as planned. He prioritized us and the schedule while making sure the guests were having a blast. He took his job so seriously that he refused a meal to ensure the everything was on schedule and he was focusing on his job. He even picked up some trash from the dance floor throughout the night which was above and beyond his responsibilities. He also offered to set up our photobooth backdrop which was really nice of him. Aziz knew how to hype up the crowd and seamlessly transitioned from one scheduled event to another. He made sure the moments that should be calm and relaxing were, such as dinner, and the moments that should be high energy were in fact really high energy and excited the crowd.

Now, from a DJ’ing perspective, he was phenomenal. He told us exactly how to organize the handful of playlists and had us fill out a form with the details and references to what songs should be played when. We provided him with the playlists and some requests and he mashed them up well and transitioned from Arabic, English, French and Spanish songs seamlessly. No abrupt breaks between songs. No awkward or out of place transitions. Just a very well thought out arrangement of our playlists with beautiful transitions that kept guests on the dance floor literally all night. Midnight came around and our guests wanted more. He cared so much about making sure we all had a good time that he allowed my wife and I as well as my best man and the maid of honor behind the DJ booth and showed us the controls so we ended up DJ’ing for a bit as well with his assistance.

All in all, looking for a great MC? Go with Aziz. Looking for a great DJ? Also go with Aziz. You will not be disappointed.

Thank you, Jimmie!!

DJ Jimmie Espo was an outstanding DJ at our August wedding at Park Plaza, Boston. Jimmie took the time to have a phone call ahead of our wedding and he matched the vibe we were looking for perfectly - he also kept our guests on the dance floor all night (~170 people), including people who we never thought would dance! He completely understood our music preferences and made his playlist accordingly - we couldn’t ask for anything more! He also ensured perfect timing of each special moment throughout the night. Thank you, Jimmie!

DJ Nick is the guy for your wedding

Music was the number one priority for me when planning our wedding, so hiring the right DJ was incredibly important—and I’m so glad we chose Nick Stamz!
Nick was extremely communicative throughout the entire planning process and made sure he understood exactly what we wanted. On the wedding day, he was always checking in with us to make sure we were happy and asking if we had any requests. He handled all of the announcements and transitions perfectly, which allowed the entire night to run smoothly and feel completely seamless.

But the most important part? I never left the dance floor—and neither did our guests! Nick absolutely knew how to read the room and keep the energy going all night. We had so many guests come up to us afterward to tell us how much they loved Nick and that he was the best wedding DJ they had ever heard.

Nick played such a huge role in making our wedding so much fun and creating the atmosphere we wanted. If music is important to you on your wedding day, I cannot recommend Nick enough. He was professional, responsive, incredibly talented, and truly helped make our night unforgettable!

Best DJ Ever

Aziz Idhamou @ 617 Weddings
This man is absutely amazing. He went above and beyond for my wife and I at our wedding. The music was on point, the vibe was amazing he got each and every single one of our guests on their feet.
He was willing to help us in any and all aspects of our day no matter it was. He even personally recorded our private dance because our videographer had already left and he absolutely nailed it.
He even made us our own personalized logo and photo montage that played during our dinner!
I would recommend Aziz and 617 Weddings to anyone couple looking for that perfect touch to their day!
We couldn’t have asked for anything better!

Best party at the Lakehouse

We worked with DJ Joe Bermudez for our wedding and could not be happier. Joe made our day feel easy and more importantly he never let the energy slip. He was the nicest guy to work with and understood the unique needs we had as a gay couple. He kept the vibes high and helped create the best party of our life! Joe did it all with a smile and we could not be more grateful. From nailing the perfect entry and exit music for our ceremony, to ensuring the dance floor packed all night thank you for helping us create the best celebration of us!

Book 617 Entertainment for your wedding!!

Jimmie Espo from 617 Entertainment DJ'd our June 2026 wedding, and he BLEW US AWAY!! Our dance floor was electric, and basically every guest we've talked to since our wedding day has led with how fantastic our DJ was. Even guests who don't typically dance were on the dance floor all night.

Jimmie is experienced, professional, and has a skillful ability to read the room and play the hits. If you want a fun wedding dance floor, look no further! Jimmie is your guy!!

Recommend 617 + DJ Bobak!

We had a great experience with 617 and DJ Bobak. We told 617 the vibe we were looking for, and they suggested DJ Bobak as a great fit. He was extremely responsive and was great to coordinate with to bring our vision to life. He really mixes and kept the energy on the dance floor up the whole night. Strongly recommend!

Professional and brought the party energy

Joe Bermudez from 617 was great to work with. Everything ran so smoothly. He helped us add a personal touch throughout the day from finding instrumental covers for our ceremony, to custom editing our first dance song. The dance floor energy was so fun all night. Joe did a great job incorporating our song requests throughout the night and kept the energy going!
