I had the pleasure of DJing a recent event with Elise of Toast Events at the chateau Laurier in Ottawa. She was the absolute perfect mix of organized and firm but also fun and kind. They're an asset to any event, large and small, and I look forward to working alongside them again!

Elise was the perfect person to bring our wedding day dreams to life. She is incredibly detail-oriented, creative, and brought both knowledge and reassurance to every step of the planning process. Elise has a way of making you feel like you have her full attention and was always ready to answer my questions or offer knowledgeable advice. Her calm, positive, and efficient energy carried through every part of the day. She ensured everything unfolded exactly as we had envisioned. We trusted Elise and her team completely, and they handled every detail seamlessly. Elise and Brittany, thank you for making our wedding day more beautiful than I ever dreamed of and for turning one big special day into countless small, unforgettable moments. We are so grateful for your thoughtfulness and kindness, and we’ll truly miss working with you!

From the moment Elise stepped into my life, she felt like someone I’d known forever, familiar, warm, and unwaveringly on my side. She balanced professional diplomacy with heartfelt connection, always arming me with just the right information so I felt in control, never overwhelmed. When a décor vendor fell through last minute, Elise reacted not with stress, but options. Within an hour, she’d sourced two breathtaking alternatives both better than what we’d originally planned. Moments like that weren’t rare; rather, they were Elise’s quiet mastery at work. It wasn’t just the logistics it was the little things that made me feel seen. Elise remembered my quirky “no pepper” rule, my love for blue hydrangeas, and on my final walk-through, she casually reassured me, “You’re going to be radiant and every detail tells your story.” On the wedding day, I remember pausing in awe so many hours, so much care, and yet it all felt effortless in that moment. I joked later that I would’ve gladly paid her twice what I did. Every dollar felt like a gift, yielding results so profound I “still can’t believe she made it happen.” Elise doesn’t just plan weddings. She creates experiences that feel personal, creative, and deeply crafted for you. If you’re feeling hesitant about making such an investment trust me, I was there too, let my experience reassure you: say yes to Elise. You’ll be glad you did.

We are eternally grateful to Elise and her team at Toast Events for making our wedding the most spectacular, stress-free, and stunning experience. Every detail was considered and this allowed me to trust her vision and design - from the initial consultation, to the final planning meeting - it was so easy and exciting to work with her. She also planned our wedding in three months which was record speed. Her communication style is friendly, professional and relaxed. The amount of time she saved us, the stress of planning a wedding completely removed, and executing our day as flawless as possible was 100% worth it. The lasting impact and beautiful memories we formed on our special day was so incredible and we give full credit to Elise for making our day come to life. Investing in Toast Events is well, well worth it! - Andrea My wife, to this day, still talks about her as if they’re best friends - which I then have to sadly remind her that they’re not and our contract is over - Luke

I’ve worked with Elise and her team at Toast Events many times over the years, and they’re always such a steady, calming presence on a wedding day. Their designs are beautiful and elevated, but what stands out most is how much they genuinely care about their couples. They are always a step ahead and making sure everything runs smoothly. As a vendor, it makes all the difference to work alongside a planner who’s organized, thoughtful, and just easy to be around. Always grateful when we get to team up!
