You can change the background brush of a ToggleButton in the template.

Right click on your Control and -> Edit a copy.

Name it and define where the Style should be (Ressource or local) There you see a Style and a Template

Sth. like this appear:

    <Style x:Key="ToggleButtonStyle1" TargetType="{x:Type ToggleButton}">
        <Setter Property="Template">
            <Setter.Value>
                <ControlTemplate TargetType="{x:Type ToggleButton}">
                    <Themes:ButtonChrome x:Name="Chrome" BorderBrush="{TemplateBinding BorderBrush}" Background="{TemplateBinding Background}" RenderMouseOver="{TemplateBinding IsMouseOver}" RenderPressed="{TemplateBinding IsPressed}" RenderDefaulted="{TemplateBinding Button.IsDefaulted}" SnapsToDevicePixels="True">
                        <ContentPresenter ContentTemplate="{TemplateBinding ContentTemplate}" Content="{TemplateBinding Content}" ContentStringFormat="{TemplateBinding ContentStringFormat}" HorizontalAlignment="{TemplateBinding HorizontalContentAlignment}" Margin="{TemplateBinding Padding}" RecognizesAccessKey="True" SnapsToDevicePixels="{TemplateBinding SnapsToDevicePixels}" VerticalAlignment="{TemplateBinding VerticalContentAlignment}"/>
                    </Themes:ButtonChrome>
                    <ControlTemplate.Triggers>
                       <Trigger Property="IsKeyboardFocused" Value="True">
                            <Setter Property="RenderDefaulted" TargetName="Chrome" Value="True"/>
                        </Trigger>
                        <Trigger Property="IsChecked" Value="True">
                            <Setter Property="RenderPressed" TargetName="Chrome" Value="True"/>
                        </Trigger>
                        <Trigger Property="IsEnabled" Value="False">
                            <Setter Property="Foreground" Value="#FFADADAD"/>
                            <Setter Property="Background" Value="green"/>
                        </Trigger>
                    </ControlTemplate.Triggers>
                </ControlTemplate>
            </Setter.Value>
        </Setter>
    </Style>

In the Trigger "IsEnabled" can you set the new Brush directly or via Binding Value="{StaticResource MyBrush}"
