Raffi is AMAZING!!!!!!! He created the most beautiful atmosphere with lighting and filled it with just the right blend of funky, eclectic music. Everything he did was done perfectly. The dining hour volume was perfect. Speakers were presented flawlessly. Best of all, the dance floor was packed the whole night- he has this amazing ability to read the crowd and give them just what they want! Raffi truly went above and beyond- he spoiled us rotten and even had a special surprise for us the night of the wedding! He made us feel like he was genuinely happy for us and honored to be a part of the day, and that was so incredibly special to us. If you want a DJ that will give you not only what you want but what you NEED to make your wedding a PARTY that your guests will remember, look no further than Raffi!

DJ Raffi definitely provided the perfect soundtrack to our magical event. He followed the list of songs provided as well as the flow of the night that we had discussed with no issues. He was able to read the crowd and provide the right music to keep the party at a great pace. I know I had guests that never left the dance floor!
I have to say that I was skeptical about doing enhanced lighting but I have to say that it turned out to provide just the right added mood to our beautiful outside event. Although it can be pricey, DJ Raffi worked with my planner to provide exceptional service at a price my parents could afford.
If you want a DJ that will contact you multiple times to make sure you are comfortable with what is planned for your event as well as to walk through the timing and flow of the formal parts of the reception, I truly recommend going with DJ Raffi.

Raffi was our DJ at my daughter's wedding March 19th, and we couldn't be more happy with the results! Raffi was professional and very organized while working together on our playlist. As a result, the music was a hit with all our guests! Raffi did a fabulous job at playing tunes from our list, but also reading the crowd and selecting tunes that kept the party rocking the entire night - the dance floor was literally bursting at the seams!! FYI, we also hired Vahe (Raffi's brother) to be our videographer - which we can't wait to see. All in all Raffi and Vahe were both professional and a pleasure to work with - we would highly recommend them both to any brides in search of a quality DJ and videographer. Nancy LaPann

When it came time for my daughter's wedding I wanted a live band, however, my daughter and future son-in-law wanted a DJ. Reluctantly I went to the meeting to meet DJ Raffi and after a few minutes I knew he was the person to do the entertainment at our wedding. He is understated and elegant and absolutely loves everything to do with the wedding industry. Not only did he do the music, he did the uplighting at the reception, arranged for the string trio at the church and the combo band for the cocktail hour. Of all the vendors we had I feel he offers you a lot for what he charges and he is so easy to work with. During dinner he played soft music, so that everyone could talk easily and during the dancing he read our crowd so well that EVERYONE was on the dance floor. So professional and a joy to work with!

Outstanding music. He had 200 friends and family dancing the night away - in an uplit, magical tent last Summer for a wedding reception at the Wayside Inn in Sudbury, Mass. Everyone said the music was outstanding. He appealed all ages. His pre-production work makes a difference in the selection of the music. He's also an outstanding professional onsite and knows all the technical aspects of sights and sounds. We would highly recommend him.

We absolutely loved our DJ for our wedding in August. We had Vasken and he was so great at really playing what we wanted and always keeping us in his line of sight during the evening so we were always on the same page. We also had a monogram light of our names that they had on the dance floor and then moved to the ceiling that all of our guests were talking about and admiring! We were extremely pleased with this company!

DJ Raffi was awesome! Not only did he get the people inside dancing and having a good time, he also made sure to put me at ease everytime he sensed (through emails and phone calls) that I was stressing out. He was a wonderful DJ to work with, very knowledgeable and professional. He was very caring and compassionate. I highly recommend him! :)

Dj Raffi was amazing. He provided all the music and lighting at our wedding. He is so classy. He had everyone on the dance floor but avoided all the cheesiness. He was so invested in the wedding. He made sure to see the venue in advance to prepare for the night. He was so nice and everyone at the wedding raved about him. He was great in every way!

DJ Raffi was the ABSOLUTE best!!! I am a self-employed bride who made a concentrated effort to get vendors that were extremely capable without needing much direction. professional, and easy to work with. I met with DJ Raffi twice ( on my schedule) to make sure that everything was arranged, gave him no more than 5 songs to play that were important to me ( ie. 1st dance, father/daughter, etc) and let him pick the rest.... and it couldnt have been more perfect! He had the whole tent dancing on a rainy Sunday afternoon.... my Great-Uncle even threw down his cane and started boogeying....I couldnt have asked for anything better. He even found a Bob Marley cover of "Sugar, Sugar" by the Archies because I mentioned once that I love Bob Marley.... If thats not great service, I dont know what is.... I promise you will not be disappointed if you pick him to play your wedding!

We used DJ Raffi for our wedding on September 6th and couldn't be happier with our choice. He's incredibly professional, well spoken, and classy... just what we were looking for. Even the manager at the yacht club where we had our reception complimented our choice in a DJ. It's not easy to find DJs who can read a crowd as diverse as our friends/family and find something to play for everyone. I guess that's why he's won Best of Boston for his work!

I just wanted to say Thank You to DJ Raffi, your services were truly wonderful. You had the whole room dancing all night! I almost missed eating my wedding cake because I was dancing so much!! =) I loved the lights, and the guests had nothing but great comments about everything!
You truly set the mood for the whole evening. Thank You!

DJ Raffi did a wonderful job at our wedding - they worked with us to select the music that we enjoy and provided colored lighting later in the evening, which provided a wonderful background to our event!

Great to work with, had the floor full all night! He was always watching my husband and I to make sure we were happy. The lighting was wonderful too. It changed colors through out the songs! He even took care of booking our ceremony/cocktail hour musicians. We just thought the price to mic the officant was a bit high, otherwise, very well priced.

Very nice- DJ Raffi himself was unavailable, so we got his brother instead. He was pleasant, professional and was well keyed-in to the kind of music and atmosphere we wanted. All we had to do was send a sample list of songs (to help them figure out the mood) and the MP3 for the more obscure song we wanted to close the wedding with. As a result, we got the right mood and lots of dancing, just as we wanted.

Working with DJ Raffi Productions was very smooth and easy. Raffi was responsive and helpful and his website was informative and easy to navigate. Both the initial meeting and the planing meeting before our wedding were super helpful in choosing both the music for the reception and the lighting. Both Raffi and Jack, the actual DJ at our wedding, were professional and prepared. They made great suggestions and worked with us to come up with a great music list within our tastes. The music at the reception was great, the dance floor was packed, and we received tons of comments from guests on how great both the music and the lighting were. We are so happy we went with DJ Raffi!
