    Stop your search and just call Raffi!

    Having the right DJ at your wedding can make or break your night and Raffi absolutely crushed it! I've worked in the event industry for almost 15 years at this point and Raffi's expertise and professionalism exceeded his reputation.

    It can be tough to read the vibes in the room and know when to switch up the beats and Raffi absolutely delivered keeping the dance floor PACKED all night! His diverse ability to go from 90 electronic to 80s pop to Middle Eastern mixes to 2000s rock songs had everyone from all ages out there having a blast! A ton of guests at our wedding commented on how well Raffi did which speaks volumes of his ability to keep everyone engaged and energetic which can be tough based on other events we've been to.

    We also decided to go with Raffi for the lighting and at our first look, our jaws dropped at how well he did at transforming the room into the perfect atmosphere for our special day!

    We cannot recommend Raffi enough and are looking for another excuse to have him MC our next event! Thanks again!

    Best Ever!

    What makes an amazing, unforgetting wedding? An AMAZING, unforgettable DJ! We used DJ Raffi as a DJ and his lighting services and he was way more than what we could've asked for. We had an American/ Armenian wedding and he did such an incredible job incorporating the two, as we asked. He went above and beyond to make our wedding so memorable. He is most certainly well experienced and a true professional and knows how to read the crowd. The lighting was also perfect. We had so many compliments and a few people said he was the best DJ they've ever heard at a wedding! We can't thank Raffi and his assistant enough for going above and beyond making our May 2021 wedding day so perfect! We highly recommend DJ Raffi and his services!

    DJ Raffi was great to work with, had excellent recommendations, and led to a really, really fun reception! My friends and family are still saying it was the best wedding they ever went to. Book him with no hesitation at all!

    Dj Raffi is not only professional , he is organized , competent , always on time and makes sure you get what you want. He went above and beyond our expectations and perfectly delivered everything we hoped for. The music was perfect and so was the lighting. Our wedding would not have been the same without DJ Raffi ! We recommend him to everybody we know.

    DJ Raffi is very professional and is always willing to go over the schedule of the wedding carefully with the couple. He always listens to requests and his prices are very reasonable. His up lighting/ dance lighting is beautiful and are a nice touch for weddings. I highly recommend him. :)

    ?We were referred to Raffi by a family member who had used his services many times. Our first appointment couldn't have gone any smoother, we discussed with him which genres of music we would like played at our wedding reception. He was very accommodating to all our requests, he also provided all the interior and exterior lighting for the venue and he even provided a dry ice machine to give a fog effect for our first dance. He is a perfectionist in all he did. Overall, Raffi met all our needs while providing a touch of class and professionalism.

    Raffi was awesome to work with for my wedding. He met and talked with me over the phone and in person multiple times and has had so much experience with weddings and music, that he always has amazing suggestions. I was so happy that I was able to rely on him and trust his judgement for things and they came out better than I imaged! He also transformed my venue with up lighting as well as projected our names onto the wall. He knows exactly how to make the night flow smoothly.

    I could not recommend Raffi more! He was excellent to work with and made our wedding night so special!

    Thank You Jaclyn, It was a pleasure working with you both!

    We had a wonderful experience with Raffi at our wedding! He DJed my brother's wedding 8 years ago, did a phenomenal job then and en even better job at our weddingearlier this month! The music selection that he played was absolutely perfect and the mixes were flawless. But that wasn't very surprising to us since Raffi was very pleasant and professional to work with since day 1. He was quick to respond and very knowledgeable and a great pleasure to work with all around.

    Our Photographer left a little early which was a bummer because there were some key moments that hadn't been captured, but lo and behold, Raffi in fact captured those pics with his DSLR from behind the DJ Table and emailed us the pictures the next day! The pics were perfect! We couldn't believe our eyes!

    All in all, I would highly recommend DJ Raffi to any couple getting married! He is so professional, organized and good at what he does, that I can assure you, that as long as you tell him what you want, he will make your wedding an absolute blasts for you and all your friends and family.

    From start to finish DJ Raffi was very responsive and professional. I told him what I was looking for and he made it happen seamlessly. As well as DJ services, he also did some beautiful up-lighting to give my reception hall a nice ambiance. The dance floor was packed the entire night and many of my guests complimented me on the music. I would definitely recommend him for any event.

    amazing, the dancefloor was never empty, even minutes before the end of the 6 hr reception, when we had 25-30 out of the 250 guests invited, they were all dancing. I would highly Recomend Raffi for anything you want people to party and dance at

    Raffi was simply amazing throughout the entire process - he created an electric vibe at our wedding guests danced all night - the uplighting was superb and added ambience to the room. I am so happy DJ Raffi was the vendor we chose for our wedding! Guests loved the music. Thank you

    I was very impressed with the DJ services provided by Raffi. We (bride, groom, and mother-of-the-bride) met briefly before the wedding and went over all of the information Raffi would need for the reception. Not only were the bride and groom pleased, but there were many compliments received by guests who, like me, appreciated the classy way in which he performed during the reception. He kept the focus on the bride and groom and their guests and did not try to make himself the center of attention. The music was not too loud and the mix of music selections was just perfect.

    We worked with Raffi for our wedding and would highly recommend him. Many of our guests told us it was the best wedding they'd ever been to, and I know that part of the reason why was the fantastic music.

    He met with us in advance to get to know us a bit, listened to our ideas for music, and importantly what we wanted for the "feel of the day" After that he put together a fun playlist that got people of all ages up there dancing. He was absolutely professional, nothing corny or too much chatter (as we had requested). We were glad we had our caterer clear plenty of room for dancing -- everyone had such a blast dancing to his songs!

    Raffi is the best DJ out there! Being Armenian, I needed an Armenian dj and Raffi was my only choice. His knowledge and expertise far surpass others and he really strives to please. Raffi knows how to feel a crowd and keep the party going!

    We were very pleased with DJ Raffi. He met with us to discuss what music we wanted and made excellent suggestions for music and the flow of events for the receptions. Raffi played the perfect music for dinner and dancing and kept the guests on the dance floor while he remained professional and low key.A very nice, and difficult to find, balance. I highly recommend DJ Raffi.

    Hi Donna,

    We loved working with you and Bob, thank you for having us!

    I hired Raffi for my wedding a few years ago and have hired him again for an upcoming event I am having. If that isn't a sign of a satisfied customer, I'm not sure what is! He is flexible, easy to work with and has a great eye. For my wedding he managed all of the audio capabilities, hired a string quartet, and coordinated the tent decor and lighting. Everything turned out just as I had hoped and I was very happy. We had a very specific playlist in mind and he was absolutely willing to accommodate. As I said we plan to use him again in a few weeks and are happy to very highly recommend him to others.

    This was our first time with Dj Raffi, and I must say it will certainly not be our last. His music had our students dancing all night! He was easy to work with and had no trouble keeping our students (and staff) engaged all night. I can’t wait to bring Dj Raffi back for more events!

    DJ Raffi provided us with music for our ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing along with uplighting for dancing. Raffi is very professional which is the type of DJ we were looking for. He was there to provide those services for us, make announcements when needed, but didn't over step with games or improv.

    He brought a few different sound systems and an assistant in order to accommodate all the different parts of the day. This costs a little more, but it is totally worth it! Everything was set up and ready to go - he wasn't moving equipment throughout the night (which I have seen other DJ's doing at weddings ive attended in the past.)

    I think my favorite part was the uplighting he provided. We used it in the room where dancing took place, and it really transformed that room! The lighting made the room feel so warm and it looked so fun around the dance floor. People seemed in awe when they walked into the ballroom after dinner! He even had this special light that made the ceiling look like the night sky. It felt like we were dancing under the stars!!

    What can we say, DJ Raffi and his crew are the BEST! I wanted a dance party and that's exactly what we got! I felt guilty for not spending enough time with my guests because I was on the dance floor all night! Guess that's a good thing!

    We've seen Raffi at other weddings and knew that he was who we would want if we ever got married! He has a wonderful presence, he's professional, kind, up to date on the music scene. An absolute pleasure! Highly recommend him.

    My husband and I loved working with DJ Raffi. He was very professional and met with us several times to discuss our music choices. He also helped coordinate musicians for our ceremony (string trio). He had many great ideas and gave us guidance on song choices. The reception music was perfect and he kept everyone dancing all night. Many of our guests commented on the great job he did. We would definitely recommend Raffi to others for their own wedding or event.

    They were excellent! We wanted a DJ who didn't take over and played the music we want, and they did an amazing job giving us exactly what we wanted. They were very attentive to details, and met with us beforehand to discuss almost every detail of our expectations, which they exceeded.
