Making you dance until your feet bleed since 2005

THANK YOU for helping us throw such a great party! I loved every minute of it! The ceremony music was beautifully done, and the reception was a complete and total blast. Everyone keeps sending me notes and e‑mails about how great the music was, asking which DJ company I used, etc. We could not have been more pleased! And we knew it from the moment we met you… it was love! I will be shouting your name from the rooftops. And if ever I have a large party again, I’m comin’ straight atcha.

Everyone keeps telling us how awesome you are (and I’m like yeah, I know). My favorite comment was that one of my friends kept waiting for you to play something mediocre so she could go to the bathroom, but you never did. I think she went eventually, but I’m not sure…

Thanks for making our wedding party a blast and keeping the flow going throughout the night. Everyone (including us) has been raving about “the best music ever at a wedding.” I mean, who knew “Watch My Feet” would bridge the generation gap and get everyone going?!? You were the best! Everything was exactly how we wanted it. The dance floor was pretty nuts thanks to you. Nice job of reading the crowd; you got some people moving that are usually barflowers!

You did a great job at reading the crowd and playing music that everyone could dance to. Everyone was dancing up until the end of the night! We didn’t want to leave at the end of the night because it was so fun!

You were so very much in tune with our needs throughout the night and you met each and every one brilliantly. Your song choices were right on with everything we had talked about — I caught myself on several occasions merrily singing along with your cocktail hour/dinner music! I heard so many compliments on your DJing skills and public speaking presence. And I really appreciate you doing the sound check for the ceremony — everything for that portion of the day was sound-wise perfect as well.

The music was exactly what we wanted from start to finish, Kate and Rachel followed our requests perfectly, and they did a great job with improvising their own music and reading the room. We even had crashers from another reception join us on the dance floor, who told us “I wish they had these DJs next door.” Even the manager of the reception hall commented on our music being so much better than the usual, and he deals with hundreds of receptions each year. I am SO GLAD that we hired Toast & Jam, and having nothing but praise for the impeccable service and music throughout our entire planning process and reception.

Toast and Jam is amazing! Shannon was our DJ, and she kept the dance floor jam packed the entire night. When we met with her prior to the wedding, we gave her a short list of songs and artists that described our taste in music. Shannon was able to take that short list and transform it into a perfect playlist for cocktails, dinner, and three hours of booty shaking! There honestly was not a millisecond when the dance floor wasn’t chock full of our energized guests. We are beyond thrilled with our decision to hire Toast and Jam. Thanks for keeping the party going, Shannon!!!
“Olivia was the best DJ we could have ever hoped for! Everyone at our wedding said that the music was amazing — and we totally agreed! She was able to perfectly blend a mix of some very eclectic requests. Her calm and presence also helped us keep our cool on the wedding day since we did not have an on-site planner. Thank you, thank you DJ Olivia!”

We had a wonderful day of wedding experience and a big part of the success was our wonderful DJ Shannon and Toast and Jam!

My wife and I originally wanted a band for our wedding, and honestly, we got one in Shannon. That live electricity, that specific talent for reading a room…guys, I *crowd surfed* at my own wedding. It was an absolute breeze communicating our hilariously varied music taste to her, and it was a straight up pleasure knowing the night was in her hands. We threw announcements and logistics and requests her way; she’s fast on her feet and keeps the party going. It’s been a week now and all I’m hearing from loved ones is how much she crushed it. When all our best people literally enveloped us chanting the final Hey Jude na na na’s in unison, it didn’t feel like the end of the night. It felt like we were ringing in something big, something sacred, something meaningful. We’ll cherish that for the rest of our lives, and it’s all your fault, Shannon. Thank you.
