Long Island Wedding DJ & MC Services
Toast Entertainment is bringing 15 years of wedding DJ standards to Long Island. Knot Hall of Fame, top 1% of wedding professionals nationwide, more than 10,000 weddings, 1,000+ five-star reviews. We don’t double-book weekends. The Toast DJ you meet, plan with, and rehearse with is the one running your night. One wedding, one DJ, one full focus.
Every Toast DJ is a trained MC and entertainment director. They are not just pressing play. They are running your reception, coordinating with your photographer for key moments, keeping your timeline tight, and making sure your guests never wonder what is happening next. Your wedding coordinator handles logistics. Your DJ handles energy. When both are great, the night is effortless.
Toast holds The Knot Best of Weddings Hall of Fame distinction, given to the top 1% of wedding professionals in the country. We earned it the hard way, one five-star review at a time, across more than a decade and nine other markets. That kind of consistency is not something you can fake.
If we have worked your Long Island wedding venue, we already know the staff, the load-in path, the room shape, and the spots where the sound will fight you. If we have not, we scout it out and pull every detail we need long before your date. Venues we have worked or know on the Island include Oheka Castle in Huntington, The Fox Hollow in Woodbury, Larkfield in East Northport, Crest Hollow Country Club in Woodbury, Flowerfield Celebrations on the North Shore in St. James, and Westbury Manor in Westbury. From Gold Coast estates to Hamptons waterfronts to North Fork vineyards, we are dialed in on the rooms that Long Island couples actually book.

Dance Floor Experts
You deserve a dance floor filled with your favorite people, dancing to the music you love.
Long Island dance floors are different. Your guest list might span four generations and bring together backgrounds you would not see in the same room anywhere else in the country. The right DJ reads the room early, listens to your family during planning, and keeps every part of your life dancing together for the entire night.
Toast DJs don’t just play music, they live mix, read the room, and build energy intentionally throughout the night. From the first family-friendly tracks that open the dance floor to the late-night hits your friends will scream-sing, every transition and song choice is purposeful.
Each DJ is trained to:
- create smooth, seamless mixes (no awkward song changes)
- play to your crowd, not their personal taste
- follow your must-plays and do-not-plays exactly
- adapt in real time to keep the floor full
Your playlist is curated around your vibe, your preferences, and your vision, never a generic template.
We Listen First
Your day, your traditions, your moments. We listen first. Tell us what matters to you and we will plan the night around it.
Long Island weddings have their own DNA. North Shore estates and South Shore yacht clubs, Italian-American receptions that go four hours past the contract, Greek and Persian celebrations with full live ensembles you have to mix around, Catholic Mass-to-cocktail-hour transitions that need timing precision, and Hamptons summer weekends where the ferry schedule is part of your timeline. Your wedding deserves a DJ who has actually worked Long Island rooms, who knows what a Saturday at Oheka demands that a Friday on the North Fork does not, and who treats every cue like it matters, not someone learning your background from a Pinterest board.
Toast DJs are trained to respectfully represent and celebrate every couple’s background. Whatever your traditions look like, whether they have been in your family for generations or you are writing new ones together, we make sure your day sounds and feels genuine. We ask questions early, listen closely, and tailor the music and announcements so your heritage and identity come through naturally.
Professional Event Hosts
You should be fully present, let us run the timeline.
Long Island weddings often involve a long drive between ceremony and reception, multiple cultural ceremonies in a single day, or a venue without an in-house coordinator. Your DJ becomes the timeline. Be fully present, let us run it.
Every Toast DJ is also a polished MC trained to manage the entire flow of your event so you don’t have to. Their style is confident, warm, and never cheesy. They guide your timeline with clarity, charm, and professionalism, keeping the night smooth without ever stealing the spotlight.
Before your big day, your DJ conducts a detailed week-of planning call covering:
- pronunciations and introductions
- ceremony details
- timeline flow
- special songs
- cultural elements
- music preferences
- any custom moments unique to your story
By the time your wedding arrives, your DJ already understands your event better than anyone who isn’t family.
Crystal-clear Ceremony & Cocktail Hour Sound
Your vows deserve to be heard clearly, so we ensure every audio detail is thoughtfully managed.
Long Island weather is its own variable. Outdoor ceremonies at Hamptons waterfront estates, North Fork vineyards, or any garden venue across Smithtown, Babylon, and Huntington have to compete with summer humidity, sudden summer thunderstorm pressure, and the occasional surprise downpour. We bring weather-resilient sound systems and a backup plan for every ceremony format, indoor or outdoor.
A flawless ceremony matters; clear audio makes sure everyone can hear your vows and enjoy seamless transitions into cocktail hour. So, sit back and savor every detail of this moment. With comprehensive emergency backup plans and a dedicated team always ready, your event is protected against any unforeseen challenges, ensuring your peace of mind.

Rates and Packages
Wedding DJ pricing in Long Island runs from about $500 to $3,000+, and the wide range usually maps to a wide quality range. At the low end, you are typically hiring one person with a laptop and no backup plan if something goes wrong. At the higher end, you are getting a trained entertainment director, premium sound, lighting options, timeline coordination with your venue and vendors, and the experience to handle a backyard ceremony or a 400-guest ballroom without breaking stride.
Toast Long Island DJ packages start at $1,795. That includes a trained entertainment director, premium sound, your custom music plan, and full coordination with your other vendors. Bundling DJ with photography, videography, or photo booth brings your per-service cost down noticeably.

DJ Marty
Long Island Wedding DJ
DJ Marty has been running Long Island weddings with Toast for years, and the reason couples request him is simple: he reads the room. Garden City ballrooms, Hamptons waterfront, North Fork vineyards, the Italian-American receptions where the bridal party entrance has to land just right. Marty handles every kind of Long Island reception with the same prep and the same instinct for what the next song should be.
He works the music meeting, the timeline call, and the night itself. The DJ you plan with is the one running your wedding. No bait-and-switch.
DJ Dennis Falcone
Long Island Wedding DJ
DJ Dennis Falcone is the name on a lot of the Long Island five-star reviews you read. Couples write that he kept the dance floor full, that he handled their family the right way, and that they had multiple guests come up afterward asking who the DJ was. That is what Dennis does, every weekend, in Nassau, Suffolk, the Hamptons, and out on the North Fork.
He prepares the timeline like he is producing it, not just playing it. Dennis books fast on peak weekends. If you want him, ask early.
What You Get With a Toast DJ
Every Toast wedding DJ package includes more than just music. Here is what comes standard.
A dedicated entertainment director. Your DJ is not a freelancer we found last week. Every Toast DJ goes through our internal training program, has worked hundreds of events, and knows how to MC a reception with confidence and warmth.
A custom music strategy. We don’t hand you a Google Form and hope for the best. Your DJ works with you on a complete music plan, from ceremony processionals to the last dance. You tell us the vibe. We build the soundtrack.
Premium sound equipment. We bring our own sound systems calibrated for your specific venue and guest count. No house speakers. No borrowed gear. No surprises.
Timeline coordination. Your DJ coordinates directly with your photographer, videographer, and venue coordinator so transitions are seamless. When the photographer needs two more minutes for sunset portraits before the first dance, your DJ knows how to fill that gap without anyone noticing.
Uplighting and design options. Want to transform your venue with color? Toast offers custom uplighting packages that turn a ballroom or museum atrium into something cinematic. Ask about our lighting design add-ons for spaces like Oheka Castle and Crest Hollow Country Club where uplighting makes the biggest visual impact.
Long Island’s Full-Service Entertainment Company
Across a region this spread out, vendor coordination is the silent killer of Long Island weddings. A photographer driving in from Smithtown, a videographer staging in Huntington, and a DJ coming from Manhasset all loading into the same Westbury venue is a logistical mess that someone has to solve. Most couples who start with a Toast DJ end up bundling additional services. There is a reason for that.
When your DJ, photographer, and videographer all work for the same company, the coordination is built in. No awkward vendor introductions at the rehearsal. No conflicting timelines. No photographer blocking the DJ’s shot of the first dance. One team. One point of contact. One company that has done this together thousands of times.
Toast offers DJ/MC, photography, videography, photo booth rentals, coordination, and luxury enhancements across the entire Long Island area, including Manhasset, Huntington, Smithtown, Westbury, Babylon, Southampton, Roslyn, Oyster Bay, Greenport, Bridgehampton, East Northport, and the surrounding Long Island.
