Last reviewed: August 10, 2026. Uptown Xpress is the wedding entertainment business of Stefan Jez, a Montreal-based specialist offering MC and DJ support for wedding receptions. For couples searching for a Montreal wedding MC and DJ, the official site describes a service built around reception planning, bilingual hosting, music, sound and lighting rather than a DJ-only booking.

The business states that it serves Montreal and surrounding areas, as well as Ottawa and Quebec City. Stefan Jez is identified as the lead MC and main DJ, with assistant DJs helping during the event. Couples can contact the business directly by phone or email to discuss fit, event details and a custom wedding experience.

Services and specialization

Uptown Xpress focuses on wedding receptions. Its published service combines Master of Ceremonies duties, DJ performance, reception-event planning, coordination and execution. The official services page says the package includes sound and lighting, personalised introductions during the reception, unlimited reception performance time, and backup equipment on site.

The business also documents wedding-day enhancements including ceremony and cocktail sound systems, dry-ice “Dancing on a Cloud” for a first dance, and room uplighting or architectural lighting. It does not offer photo booth services; instead, its website says it may refer couples to external providers.

Service area and who it may suit

The contact page says Uptown Xpress is based in Montreal, Quebec, and is available for surrounding Montreal areas, Ottawa and Quebec City. The official pages reviewed do not publish a street address, so no postal address is listed here.

This service may suit couples who want one provider to host and direct key reception moments as well as DJ the event. It may also be relevant where English/French hosting is required, since the business states that Stefan and his team are fully bilingual. Couples planning celebrations outside the named areas should ask about travel, logistics and any related charges.

Confirmed strengths and practical limitations

A documented feature of Uptown Xpress is its combined MC, DJ and reception-coordination approach. The official site says Stefan Jez works with couples on the flow of reception events and coordinates with speakers, photographers and videographers as the evening progresses. It also states that planning meetings take place before the wedding.

Other documented operational features include bilingual hosting, backup gear on site and a battery generator for power outages. The website says the lead MC and main DJ at the wedding will be Stefan Jez, while assistant DJs help throughout the evening.

Practical limitations are primarily matters for confirmation. No street address or office hours are published on the official pages reviewed. The site says it accepts a limited number of wedding couples per year, but it does not publish live availability or a calendar. Couples should therefore confirm date availability directly.

The official site says pricing can vary with factors including location, attendee count and installation requirements.

Contact and booking

The official contact page asks couples to text or call Stefan Jez at 514-297-3508, or email stefan@uptownxpress.com. The website says inquiries are handled personally and invites prospective clients to begin with a conversation about their event.

Its published process starts with an initial Zoom meeting to assess fit. The services page then describes a digitally signed contract with a 50% initial payment, a discovery meeting about six months before the wedding, and a final planning meeting about one month before the event, when the final 50% payment is due. These details are the business’s stated process and should be reconfirmed before booking.

What couples should confirm

Before signing, ask whether Stefan Jez is available for the specific date and venue, whether the event falls within the stated service area, and whether travel or venue installation conditions affect the quote. It is also sensible to confirm exactly which sound, lighting, ceremony and cocktail components are included.

Couples should discuss the desired degree of MC involvement, bilingual requirements, reception timeline and music preferences. If considering a Love Story, custom audio edit, dry-ice first-dance effect or uplighting, ask whether it is included in the proposal and whether the venue permits it.

The official site says the business offers a 100% money-back guarantee. Ask for the applicable terms, timing and exclusions in the contract so both parties have the same understanding.
