DJ Alli Klein and the Toast & Jam team made our wedding the best party I’ve ever been to, hands down. Also the best party 99% of our guests have ever been to. From the start, we felt Alli completely understood our taste in music and vision for our wedding, from cocktail to dinner to dance party. With some weird requests on our end (Morrissey, The Mountain Goats, British punk), we worried we couldn’t reconcile our taste in music with tunes that would keep the party going. Alli proved us wrong! She managed to include ALL of our faves in a perfectly timed and organic way. Any artist we couldn’t boogie to was included in other parts of our reception. As the bride, I was on the dancefloor without a break for 2 hours straight. It was banger after banger. I will recommend Toast & Jam again and again, but ESPECIALLY Alli. Thank you!!

We couldn’t have asked for more from Chris S. at Toast and Jam as our wedding DJ. From the first meeting through the end of the evening, he did fantastic. He helped us figure out the sound for each part of the evening, was already familiar with our venue, and made sure everyone had a great time. We loved the music; there was great variety and his song choices were accessible to people with a variety of tastes without ever being cliché or overplayed. There were always people dancing and he transitioned what was playing from one point in the evening to another seamlessly. Also, the sound levels were good, Chris perfectly hit the sweet spot where you could hear the music from the bar but it never blew out your ears or made you have to shout over it. His relaxed but professional, confident, and expert attitude were great additions to our team of vendors and helped us feel at ease.

We could not have asked for a better DJ for our wedding reception. Throughout the entire process, we were impressed with the professionalism of Toast and Jam, which definitely helped ease our stress in the planning process. We worked closely with Mary and we always felt like we were in good hands. She 100% helped create a fun atmosphere for us and our guests. We will definitely be recommending Toast and Jam to anyone we know planning a wedding or event.

DJ Alli was incredible! Music was really important to us, and Alli did a fantastic job listening to our wishes in our meetings early on to plan for the night. She played great music and the dance floor was packed all night long. People kept telling us how amazing our DJ did and every song was loved by the crowd. Alli also handled announcing our audio guest book for us and coordinating the speeches. Our parents also loved all of Alli’s songs. We would recommend Toast & Jam and DJ Alli to anyone!

Toast & Jam DJs truly made our night perfect. Music and dancing was a top priority for us and Jenna made everything so easy. She also was great at making sure we were on schedule throughout the night, leaving plenty of time for the dance floor. Whether it was coordinating our playlist or giving us suggestions, Jenna was great. Can not recommend this company enough!

We attended a friend’s wedding a few years ago and loved the DJ so much that we got her business card. We had recently gotten engaged ourselves and as soon as we found our venue, immediately booked Toast & Jam for our wedding! It was truly the easiest decision we made during wedding planning. DJ Alli was AWESOME to work with! Communication leading up to the event was excellent. She was there to answer questions, bounce ideas off of, and was just as hyped as we were for the big day! DJ Homework Date Night” was so much fun and really helped us solidify our vision for our wedding. She executed perfectly. I’ve never been to a wedding where I remembered what music was played during cocktail hour or dinner, but we had compliments on our music and DJ before dancing even started!!! That was so special. We wanted chill/romantic dinner vibes, and then a packed high energy dance floor, and got exactly that! We missed dessert and late night snack because that’s how much we did not want to leave the dance floor. Thank you so much Alli (T&J) for helping us have the wedding reception of our dreams!!!

Toast and Jam totally exceeded our expectations! Our DJ Chris S was an absolute pleasure to work with. Chris was a huge reason the wedding was a complete success. He absolutely killed it and had good vibes all around! Our photo booth attendant was incredible too! ( Unfortunately didn’t get their name! ). I will be recommending this amazing company to everyone I know getting married or having any type of cool event. We can’t say thank you enough!! We <3 U Toast & Jam. XO Gianna and Matt

I can’t say enough amazing things about Norah. From our first meeting, I knew instantly that we were in good hands. Norah is so kind and inviting, she seriously made us feel like we’d been friends for years. She was already familiar with our venue, knowing all the ins and outs, so there was never a moment where I was worried about anything. Everyone was on the dance floor the second it opened up, and didn’t empty out till the night was over. I had multiple people tell me that they never dance at weddings, but that Norah had them on their feet all night. Even better, I received SO many compliments from people saying how awesome the music and overall vibe was, and how they wished we could have kept partying into the night. I seriously can’t thank Norah enough for everything, she was easily one of the best parts of our day!

Cannot say enough good things about the way Alli curated the music for our whole night. The music was really above and beyond our expectations and was exactly to our liking while still having a good read of the room and where to place songs or switch things up. I would recommend Toast & Jam and Alli specifically to any couple that is looking for a professional experience that still takes into account your preferences and musical tastes. Cheers!

We have had our guests rave over DJ Jess since our wedding. So many people have said she was the best wedding DJ they’ve ever heard, and many asked how to book Toast & Jam for future events. Jess worked with us to find the perfect playlist for the ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, and reception. She let us put a lot of ourselves into the each playlist, while filling in the gaps with music we definitely wouldn’t have thought of, but was the perfect choice. Jess was very helpful throughout the night, worked great with all of our other vendors, created the vibe of our dreams, and (the best part) danced the night away with us!
