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!

Absolutely AMAZING — Our Dance Floor Was Packed All Night!

Aziz Idhamou and the entire team at 617 Weddings were absolutely AMAZING!!! They took all the little details from our final meeting and text messages and brought our vision to life better than I ever could have dreamed of!
The energy was incredible from start to finish. We had multiple guests tell us that this was the first wedding in years where they wanted to stay on the dance floor the entire night because of the music and energy. That honestly says it all!
The cold sparklers during our entrance and first dance were also absolutely incredible and made those moments even more unforgettable. Everything was executed so perfectly and professionally.
I cannot thank Aziz and his team enough for making our wedding so much fun and truly unforgettable. I’m SO glad I was able to give Aziz a few songs we loved and say, “I trust you to make the rest of the playlist!” — because he absolutely delivered.
If you’re looking for a DJ who will listen to you, bring your vision to life, keep the energy HIGH, and have your guests dancing all night, LOOK NO FURTHER!!! We couldn’t recommend Aziz Idhamou and 617 Weddings more!

DJ David Natola

David was absolutely perfect. We had rough weather that thankfully cleared for the wedding but he was completely flexible with changes in prep and day of.

It was like having another groomsmen on site. He was incredibly helpful and had a stress free attitude that really helped keep us all cool.

He got the party started and it never slowed down from there. His introductions for bridal party and events were also perfect.

Overall, he did great on every level of the job and we are incredibly thankful for his professionalism and great personality. Thanks David!

617 Wedding Review- DJ jimmie Espo

We seriously cannot say enough amazing things about Jimmie Espo from 617 Weddings!! He made our wedding at the Boston Marriott Long Wharf absolutely unforgettable. THE DANCE FLOOR WAS ELECTRIC from start to finish, and it was hands down the best dance floor and the best night we could have ever asked for.

He kept the energy up all night, knew exactly how to keep everyone engaged, and made sure the party never lost momentum. He also did an incredible job directing our bridal party and keeping everything flowing seamlessly throughout the night. Every transition felt effortless, and the entire evening ran exceptionally well. You could tell he knew exactly what he was doing and how to read the room.

If you're getting married and want a DJ who brings the energy, keeps the night moving, and creates a party your guests will talk about long after the wedding, Jimmie Espo from 617 Weddings is your guy. We are so grateful he was such a huge part of the best night of our lives!!

Highly recommend!!!

DJ Nick Stamz from 617 Weddings is AMAZING!!! He DJ’ed our wedding at The Beauport Hotel, and we truly couldn’t have asked for a better DJ.

Nick is exceptional at what he does. He knows how to read the room, keep the energy going, and get everyone out on the dance floor. One thing that really stood out to me was that while dinner was still going on, my niece and nephew started dancing, and Nick actually came over to ask what song he could play for them. It was such a small but thoughtful gesture that showed how attentive he was to our guests and the overall experience.

He kept everything running so smoothly throughout the entire night, and we never had to worry about what was happening next. He was also incredibly communicative, responsive, and easy to work with throughout the planning process.

If you’re looking for a DJ who will keep your wedding flowing, get your guests dancing, and genuinely care about making your night special, I cannot recommend DJ Nick Stamz and 617 Weddings enough! We are so grateful he was part of our wedding day!

617 Weddings - David Natola

David from 617 weddings was excellent. We gave him a handful of songs we loved and he did an amazing job of working off that list to play a mix that everyone loved. He made all the introductions and necessary announcements exactly how and when they were needed. We received so many compliments from all of our guests about how much fun David made the night, he played everyone’s recommendations and truly made our event so much fun. Prior to the wedding, he was super responsive and easy to work with. On the day of, he arrived right on time and got himself set up and mic’d up our officiant. The sound quality through out the ceremony was great despite being an outdoor wedding. Could not recommend David from 617 Weddings more!

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!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
