“We had no idea how to go about hiring a DJ and were so glad we went with Toast Entertainment. Our DJ (Quenton) was 5-star wonderful. … During the evening, he was professional, fun, and engaging. The guests loved him and the music selection. …”

“Quenton did a great job setting the vibe for our wedding reception, and getting people on the dance floor! … Plus he was helpful in coordinating a last-minute change to our timeline when the heat started melting our cake! Thanks Quenton and Toast Entertainment.”

“Toast Entertainment was such a joy to work with. We booked both a DJ and Photo Booth. Horace, our DJ, was amazing! He was so easy going, did everything we asked, and kept the vibes and energy up during the reception. My day-of coordinator said he was ON POINT and took initiative. … Highly recommend!!”

Why one company

One contract, one point of contact

Choose only the services you need. Fewer contracts, one point of contact. One planning conversation, one timeline, one crew that answers to you.

Real savings when you bundle

Bundle two services and you get $100 off plus a free Combo Perk. Three services take $200 off with two Perks, and four take $300 off with all seven.

Backup DJ and backup gear on every event

If anything fails, nobody notices. A backup DJ and a full second setup come to every event.

Built for the way Washington DC gets married

DC’s spring season runs March to May. Fall runs October to November. Those dates fill 8 to 12 months in advance, so book your DJ once your venue is locked.

We work the InterContinental The Willard, the Grand Hyatt Washington, President Lincoln’s Cottage, Sweeney Barn and District Winery. At the Andrew W. Mellon Auditorium we sound check before guests arrive. At Salamander Resort in Middleburg we run ceremony sound on the grounds.

Quenton Harris, our Head DJ and DMV Operations Manager, leads the team, and every DC DJ trains under him. Your DJ meets with you to plan the music before the wedding.

We travel to Arlington, Alexandria, Bethesda, Tysons Corner, Reston, Rockville and Annapolis. Travel within 30 miles of DC is free. DC venue directory.
