Our experience with DJ Jessi from Toast & Jam was PHENOMENAL. As a couple that is very passionate and particular about music, we knew from the very first FaceTime meeting that Jessi was the DJ for us. In addition to the genres and general vibes that we discussed, Jessi was on board with our many suggestions for must-plays. We also encouraged her mixing/mash-up skills and she did NOT disappoint. She blessed us with a Whitney Houston-Steve Winwood mashup for our last song that brought the house down. Additionally, she provided sound for our ceremony (which included a live musician), and kept our reception organized and on schedule as an emcee. Throughout dinner, we continuously received compliments on the dope ass music”. Can’t argue with the people once they’ve spoken.We would highly recommend DJ Jessi – she loves what she does, does it superbly, and wants to help make your day everything you’d dreamed.”

My partner and I were looking to keep a local wedding intimate and fun with 150 people. Meeting Jessi opened our ideas and brought out the best possible outcome. Her insight, guidance and assurance put us at ease as she quickly picked up what we were going for; cocktail italian jazz, John Prine, Prince, a special first song from a family member, No Doubt, and Ginuwine. Jessi was so easy to work with, so excited to help and support us, so easy in communication and putting us at ease that this piece would be covered by someone we quickly trusted to get it off right. She worked with our other vendors to ensure she had what she needed, was great to our guests and got my grandmother on the floor to bop.We could not have asked for more, Jessi is a pro.”

If you have to get married in a pandemic, you want Jessi from Toast & Jam on your team of wedding vendors. From the very start, she was professional, organized, and made us feel at ease knowing that our music was in the hands of a seasoned expert. We especially appreciated that Jessi asked all the right questions to get to know us and understand our personalities and desired wedding vibe. Through all the twists and turns of planning, Jessi was on the ball with her responsiveness, creative and fun ideas, yes’s” to our special requests, and calming demeanor. We were very lucky to have her be a part of our big day.”

T&J really came through for us on our wedding day! We were one of those 2020 weddings whose plans got upended, but even after all the changes we had to make to ensure our wedding was smaller and safe, it still felt like a total party. DJ Marjorie did a fantastic job understanding exactly our styles of music and what we wanted. Even during these crazy pandemic times, the excellent DJing skills were able to get our guests up and dancing all night long. All the songs we requested were played! It was an absolute pleasure working with DJ Marjorie and T&J overall. We had a blast on the dance floor!”

We want to thank DJ Alice so much for an awesome night! She put together an amazing and fun playlist and took care of all our song requests! We wanted non-stop dancing all night and Alice provided the music to make that happen! Alice also did a wonderful job of announcing all the special moments from our ceremony. We couldn’t have been more happy with our experience with Alice and Toast & Jam! We’d definitely recommend hiring them for your wedding! And you’ll be in great hands with Alice!”

Norah simply made everything go smoothly from cocktail hour through the end of the reception. We did not have many opinions or requests when it came to the must plays’ for our reception, we just wanted everyone to be on the dance floor having a good time. Without much of our direction, Norah was able to keep the good vibes flowing and the party never stopped. Norah showed that she cared and that it mattered that we had the best night ever. No one wanted to leave the dance floor at the end of the night! Norah was not only a good DJ, but she was personable and loving to us throughout the evening. She was friendly to our guests and family members and made everyone feel special! If we had it in us to plan another wedding, we would without a doubt have Norah DJ for us again! 10/10 stars!!!”

There literally aren’t enough great words to describe how wonderful Norah was to have DJing our wedding, and overall keeping the night running SO smoothly!! From the planning process to the night-of, Norah was super fun to work with, and made everything so EASY! We received SO many compliments about how amazing the music selection was, and a lot of your DJ is so COOL!!” comments. We were even able to mix in the Game of Thrones theme song into one of our family traditional toasts — I mean how many weddings have you been to with THAT song playing?? We can’t recommend Toast & Jam more, AND Norah! Thank you for making our night even more special!

We worked with Norah from Toast & Jam primarily and she was nothing short of awesome. From the get go she was so helpful in talking through music choices, when we would need to get song decisions to her, being patient with my music-picky husband, and she was absolutely essential to keeping everything moving smoothly during the event. Her choices for dancing were perfect, as many of my guests commented how great the songs were and were on a first name basis with her by the end of the night. On top of that she was just a joy to work with and so fun to check in with throughout the night — I don’t know if that’s normal but we just loved working with her. If in the Chicago area and looking for a DJ I highly recommend checking out Toast & Jam — I can’t imagine a better option out there!

We can’t say enough phenomenal things about our experience with DJ Jessi and Toast & Jam. From the very start, Jessi was organized, responsive, and an absolute joy to work with. Her positive attitude paired with her industry expertise made the planning process a breeze, and she was truly the MVP vendor of our wedding day. The atmosphere she created with the music was exactly what we were looking for, and we really felt like she had our backs the entire night. She quickly adapted to any challenges we faced the night of, and honestly ran the whole show perfectly! We are so grateful to have had her at our wedding, and sincerely cannot recommend Jessi and the Toast & Jam team enough!

Toast & Jam and our DJ Olivia, were wonderful to work with! From the planning & discovery process to providing the exact right type of vibe for our dance floor that got our guests partying hard. Due to COVID, we had to shorten our guest list and were worried we wouldn’t have enough people to make the most of the dance floor — but the music choices were phenomenal and created an atmosphere where people couldn’t stay away. We had to postpone our wedding — but even the transition between DJs (shoutout to our original DJ, Marjorie, for taking great notes about our style & music choices) was seamless. Toast & Jam knows what they’re doing — I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone!
