Ways to Transform the Room
Color-matched LED accent lighting around your venue. Ten wireless LED fixtures wash the walls in the color you choose.
Your names or a custom design projected across the floor or a wall, right where the cameras point all night.
Spark fountains that stay cool and give off no smoke, cleared with your venue in advance. Use them for your entrance, the first dance or the last song. Two fixtures $595, four $995, one more display $200.
A low cloud of dry ice fog for your first dance that stays on the floor and fades before the tables.
LOVE in 48-inch lit letters, the backdrop every guest wants a photo with. Custom words are quoted on request.
A hundred foam glow sticks, saved for the moment the dance floor peaks. The whole floor lights up at once.
A karaoke rig with two wireless mics and lyrics on screen, for the cousins who have been waiting all night.
Shades of Uplighting
Twelve shades to choose from. Tell us your palette and we match it before guests arrive.
Aubrey Johnston is Toast's Photo Booths and Luxury Enhancements Director. She directs both teams, so every effect is planned by one person and run on one timeline. She sets the standards Toast crews work to: match the uplighting to your palette, place every fixture before guests arrive, and fire each effect on the cue your DJ calls. When you book Toast enhancements in South Texas, Aubrey plans the setup and directs the crew that runs it.
Meet AubreyToast also covers South Texas DJ and MC, photography, videography, photo booths, and coordination. Book three or more services and a Luxury Enhancement comes complimentary. Bundling two or more services saves up to $400.
From Inquiry to Wedding Day
Send us your date and venue. We confirm the date is open and send a quote.
Choose from the menu above, one effect or the full set.
During planning we confirm the colors, finalize the monogram, clear sparks with the venue and set each cue with your DJ.
Our crew sets up before guests arrive, fires each effect on cue, and packs out.
If a crew member has an emergency, another Toast crew member is sent to your event. You are booking a company with a team, not a single freelancer.
South Texas Venues We Work With
Rio Grande Valley and Coastal Bend venues Toast has worked:
Lighting a South Texas venue
Mansion Royal in Corpus Christi has three ballrooms, and the Mansion Ballroom alone is 9,240 square feet. In a room that size, uplights along the walls make it feel full.
Lumberyard Events Co. in Sinton has open-rafter ceilings. Light aimed up into the rafters adds warmth without extra decor.
Quinta Mazatlán in McAllen is a 1930s Spanish Revival adobe mansion with cantera stone patios. Soft amber uplight suits the stone after sunset.
Wind off the coast and venue rules decide which effects can run outdoors. Confirm with your venue which ones can go outside.
Toast Lighting and Enhancement Reviews
"Walter and The Toast Entertainment team for our wedding was amazing! We used them for our day of coordinator, DJ, and Karaoke Services."
"I would recommend this company to anyone! I hired them for lighting, DJ and Photo Booth services and they were awesome! Everyone showed up on time and made the day easy. My DJ was also extremely responsive and answered any questions and last minute details I had leading up to the big day. People loved the Photo Booth too!"
"From the audio system at our outdoor ceremony sight to the very cool uplighting and excellent sound quality of our indoor reception we could not have been happier."
