We LOVED Toast & Jam. Erica Schwanke did such a fabulous job. Working with her was so easy. We didn’t give her too much direction and she played music that everyone loved. People of all ages were dancing all night. So many of our guests made a point to tell us how great our dj was during the night. That made us feel so happy knowing everyone was enjoying the music so much and that guests went out of their way to compliment the Erica. So many people who don’t dance a lot (including me!) were on the dance floor for hours. At the end of the night we had people shouting for one more song. Erica also did such a great job of managing the timeline for the evening. She was so well organized and on top of all the details. She mic-ed our ceremony, helped set up our slideshow for audio, did perfect introductions for the reception and followed the speech order and other events flawlessly. It’s such a comforting feeling as a bride to know going into the evening that every small detail is covered.

We. Love. Toast and Jam. Karin was a dream to work with, by far our favorite vendor. The song selection was perfect for us, we loved everything that was played. The absolute highlight of our wedding reception was seeing the dance floor packed the second it was time to dance until the last song was played. She played music that appealed to everyone, so much so my father-in-law got so low he ended up laying on the floor. We had the best wedding ever thanks to Karin and Toast and Jam! I would recommend them to anyone in a heartbeat.

We had such a great feeling the first time we met Emily at Toast & Jam… and knew that she was going to be perfect for our wedding. She was totally professional throughout the entire process, and when our big day finally came, she rocked. The dance floor was filled the entire evening (exactly what we wanted), and guests both young and old kept saying “I love this song!” throughout the whole night. We couldn’t have been happier. We are so thankful to Toast & Jam for helping create an incredibly memorable night!!

My wedding day was perfect and the night capped it off. Part of the perfect evening was DJ Karin. From the cocktail hour to the last song, she kept the music playing and everyone on the dance floor. She is a professional and is easy to work with. From the oldies to today’s hits and everything in between, the night was one big party. You can’t go wrong with Toast and Jam and DJ Karin!

DJ Tabitha and Toast & Jam MADE our wedding. Tabitha had everyone dancing, singing, and laughing. She got my 87 year old grandmother dancing to Michael Jackson and got the guys on the floor to Bel Biv Devoe…hilarious. DJ Tabitha really listened to us and thoughtfully choose music that complimented both our tastes and the overall vibe we were trying to have at the wedding. Our guests are still raving about the night. Professional, prepared, fun…Toast & Jam is rad!

We were concerned, leading up to our wedding day, about whether our guests would get out on the dance floor, given that we were having a luncheon wedding in the middle of a bright, sunny day. We had nothing to worry about! Karin provided us with exactly the vibe we were going for, and the dance floor was packed all day long. The reception was fun and perfect, in no small part due to our wonderful DJ!

We couldn’t be happier with our DJ, Karin, and Toast and Jam in general. Karin took the time to get to know us as a couple before the wedding and ensured that the music was tailored to our preferences and the crowd. If you’re planning a party or a wedding, look no further than T&J… Thanks so much for helping make our wedding such a wonderful time for both us and our guests!

Weeks after our wedding people were still talking about how much fun they had and DJ Karin played a huge role in that! With little direction from my husband and me as to the music we wanted, she read the crowd and kept the dance floor packed the entire night. We wanted everyone to feel like they were at an amazing party and there was no doubt that is how everyone remembers the night. Toast & Jam is without a doubt the best!

I had heard about Toast & Jam from one of my coworkers who hired them for her wedding. She raved about them, so I thought we needed to follow suit. We were set up with Karin Fjellman and from the moment we met her, we knew she was going to be awesome. Her professional manner and attention to detail made us know we made the right choice and we felt our stress melt away. At our reception, Karin took charge and made our day flow smoothly. She introduced everyone perfectly and knew who and when to give the microphones to for the toasts, prayers and speeches. Now, onto the dance portion of the night…EVERYONE was on the dance floor from the minute the music started until our reception was over. I have had so many compliments on how everyone (20-something’s to 60-something’s) could dance to every one of the songs. She played a great mix of Motown, Old School, and Top 40’s.

All we have to say is “Karin Rocks”!

“We couldn’t have asked for more with Toast & Jam! DJ Karin truly brought our wedding to life before the ceremony even started: We laughed, we cried, and we enjoyed every second of it. Choosing a DJ was a priority for us, and we hit the jackpot with Karin. Her music choices were a hit with everyone, whether 5 years old or 55 years old! Karin really listened to our music preferences and created a masterpiece of an evening… We have never seen so many people dancing at one time at a wedding. Our guests are still raving about how much fun they had. Thank you for making our night so memorable. Without a doubt, the best night of our lives!”
