When we first spoke with DJ Alli on a Zoom call to book her services, it was very clear that she was experienced, organized, and knowledgeable. She was a vendor that we learned quickly that we could count on to catch anything that we let slip through the cracks and keep the planning on course! She was responsive to emails throughout the planning stage and eased any worries that we had. DJ Alli played all of our Must Plays” as originally discussed and did an awesome job of reading the room” to keep the party going all night. We highly suggest Toast & Jam, and especially DJ Alli for your big day!

DJ Alli was great! Her playlist was fantastic…exactly our vibe. She honored all of our requests including volume and special song selections and was great to work with. She helped make our Wedding Day all the more special and we are grateful. We enthusiastically recommend her and Toast and Jam for anyone looking for a quality DJ. Thanks, DJ, Alli!

Elam did a wonderful job talking to us about our music preferences and putting together a perfect playlist. Elam was very professional and friendly from start to end and did a perfect job of reading the room” and playing the perfect song at every moment of the evening. Highest recommendation!

Our experience with Toast & Jam was wonderful from start to finish! Our DJ, Alli, was attentive throughout our entire planning process and even provided recommendations for songs to engage our guests throughout our day! Alli read the room throughout the night to make sure everyone was having fun resulting in a full dance floor all night! We received many compliments on our music from guests of all ages. Thanks again to Alli (and Toast & Jam, too)!

Rachel made our wedding the best party we’d ever been to. We received so many compliments and the dance floor was quite literally packed all night! She was able to incorporate my and my husband’s varying music tastes so easily into a set that flowed seamlessly all night. She accommodated special parent requests easily and kept the vibes immaculate all night long. We had the time of our life and it was thanks to Rachel’s amazing skills! HIGHLY recommend Toast & Jam if you want to have the best wedding dance floor ever.

Alli was truly amazing and made all of our music dreams come to life. She was always so responsive and enthusiastic about our evening and made sure all bases were covered should anything go wrong. She kept the party alive all night and was so much fun. It was very apparent that she spent a lot of time looking over songs we did/didn’t want and curating the perfect set list. Absolutely recommend her & Toast and Jam!!!

Last year when my now wife & I started planning our wedding in Chicago, I was researching vendors and came across Toast & Jam’s website. We had an intro call with my our DJ, Alli, to learn a bit more about T&J and their process. As we were planning a wedding in Chicago while living in California, it was important to us that our DJ be responsive, organized, and collaborative throughout the process. Alli was so friendly, helpful, & organized in our intro call that I knew we had come to the right place. Leading up to the wedding Alli was super helpful in our prep meetings from helping us align on music choices to going over every ceremony detail, from ceremony order / music / timing to name pronunciations for our wedding party. She even helped us fold in some last minute song additions we sent the day before the wedding! Day of the wedding went amazingly well — Alli was the perfect master of ceremonies, and our dance floor was sweaty and packed for 3 straight hours. Alli’s selection of music and mixing could not have been better and we received multiple comments from our guests that this was the best wedding DJ they had ever heard. Words will never do justice to how much I’d recommend Toast & Jam (and Alli) for a wedding — thank you for helping make our wedding day so special and memorable!

Where to start? Alli was a Perfect match for us after our intro call! We could tell our music taste was similar and that she’d help us rock the night away! Alli had a perfect mix of jams from start to finish and something for everyone in the crowd! We had an absolute blast with her and truly felt she made the dance floor by playing all the best songs! She ensured none of the songs on our do not play list were played and made sure our absolute favorites were! Thank you Alli for listening to us and making the dance floor electric!!!

DJ Kate absolutely understood the assignment, read the room with ease, and kept the dance absolutely rocking. She breathed energy and life into our party. When we said, Our friends like to dance,” she said, Bet. How hard are we going??” Each song was so well timed and perfectly catered to the crowd. From the start of the ceremony, to dinner service, to warming up the dance floor, to ending on a high note. We feel so lucky to have had Kate as our DJ Extraordinaire.

DJ Damani went above and beyond for us! He is a pro, and had everything so well prepared that the day was just that much better. He was very helpful in our meetings beforehand and understood exactly what we imagined the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception to sound like. Then the day of he continued to just go the extra mile to make sure everything went smoothly and sounded great! We got so many compliments about how fun the dance floor was the entire night. He was also great working with our other vendors and communicating with us as well with any and all minor adjustments throughout the day. Anyone will be lucky to work with Damani and you will get the best dance floor you could imagine!
