Food and music were two of our major considerations in planning the wedding of our dreams. And so the search for the perfect DJ was daunting. There is not a single doubt that our wedding would not have been the incredible day that it was without Drew. He’s not just a DJ. He is an absolute master of creating the perfect vibe and experience for the event. Our guests were very vocal in letting us know that they thoroughly enjoyed the music and vibe. They also were quick to tell us how impressed they were with the music selection and Drew’s overall performance. We weren’t surprised. He was an absolute pleasure to work with and we couldn’t be more thrilled that we chose to work with him for our special day. For all the true music lovers out there, there really is no other choice!

Drew is simply amazing! He is not only a wonderful DJ but an even better person. He provided us and our guests with the exact musical experience we wanted and even surprised us with Dutch and German songs without us even asking! Everyone was in absolute awe of him and raved about how great he was. We added on live music (saxophone player) and were blown away he found someone so wonderful for our special day. We would 100% recommend Drew to anyone looking to have a memorable wedding DJ experience! He single handedly brought the vibe we wanted for our wedding alive.

We have all been to weddings where the DJ and the music were kinda cringe. Like does anyone really need to hear "We Are Family" or "The Electric Slide" for the billionth time? NAH. So if you're looking to avoid the super cliche musical moments and have your guests say that your wedding had "THE BEST MUSIC EVER!!!' you gotta book Drew! From our very first phone call, I knew that Drew was our guy. He was super excited to get to know us and didn't spend the entire call boasting about himself or just wanting to know the logistics of our big day. He also might have been more excited for our wedding than WE were at the time, and trust me, you are gonna want that energy around you while you're spending months and months planning this one day. Once we booked Drew, he sent us an invitation to use this really cool app that let us put in ALL of the songs we wanted played at our wedding into nice and organized categories. This was super helpful and was such an easy way to make sure that all of our favorite jams made the cut! Now as far as the big day goes, let me tell you, he was worth every penny. We gave him very specific instructions about songs we wanted played at certain times and admittedly, I was super worried that it might have been an overwhelming task for him to keep it all straight...but he CRUSHED it!! The coolest thing about Drew though was his ability to read our guests and the vibe and adjust his music to fit the mood. I mean, I never would have remembered to put Chaka Khan "Ain't Nobody" or Harry Belafonte's "Day-O" on our list and the moment I heard them, I about died of glee and so did our guests! I cannot tell you the amount of texts, calls and emails we got after our wedding from our guests saying it was truly the best wedding they had ever attended and honestly, Drew was such an important part of that. When I was planning my dream wedding in my head, the music was always such a vital and vibrant part of that fantasy....and somehow Drew gave us an experience better than I could have ever imagined. Thank you Drew for everything and BOOK THIS MAN ALREADY! Alright!? Cool.

There are a million and one things I could say about how glad I was to have Drew as the DJ for our wedding. Drew is such a kind, genuine, approachable human, and these are qualities that make for the kind of person you want at your wedding in any capacity. Where he really shines as a DJ is his ability to interact with your guests (even manage the pricklier ones) and his keen sense of the flow of the party.

Drew made it easy for us to plan out all the musical details of our ceremony and reception, and he understood exactly what we were going for with the timing of events and emotional beats of the overall day.

Drew's music repertoire is unmatched. You could often look around the party and see people nodding in approval as a new song started and a lot of quizzical knowing looks as a more unexpected/good song came on. We're more than a week past the actual day and people are STILL talking about how they loved *all* of his song choices.

If you want your event to rock, swing, sway, mosh, WHATEVER it is that you want, you would be doing yourself a disservice if you didn't hire Drew!

Drew was the absolute perfect choice for our wedding ceremony and reception on 9/23/18. We found him online and after reading his bio we were pretty sure this guy was legit. After a long video chat with Drew about music, our vision for our wedding day, etc., we knew it had to be him. We booked him immediately for our ceremony and reception and he did not disappoint! He was very organized, communicative, and professional. I am a bit of a type-A person and he made me feel completely at ease throughout the entire process. The music for the ceremony was on point--everything was seamless. He also DJ'd our cocktail hour and reception and did a great job mixing our music tastes with high-energy dance-floor jams across several genres, and included many very welcome surprises. One of my favorite memories of our wedding will always be yell-singing and dancing to My Own Worst Enemy by Lit with my husband and all of my best friends lol. Thank you, Drew! You made our wedding personal and super special. Brides & Grooms, look no further! Drew is the best!

Drew was phenomenal. He understood our eclectic music tastes and created exactly the dance party we were hoping for. His skill at mixing songs and reading the crowd is magical. Drew is great at communicating, meeting in person, and providing online resources to connect with him. When his busy season starts, he remains responsive with friendly auto-reply messages and getting back by phone/text.
Drew is a real person, not a cheesy wedding DJ. He is interesting, funny, and a pro at his job. I hope we have another reason to throw a sweet party someday so we can hire him again.
Drew's uplighting is also a great addition to a venue - talk with him, your photographer and venue coordinator about it in advance to see if it makes sense for your celebration.

Drew is so talented and an amazing entertainer/DJ! He is the first DJ we contacted, we listened to one of his mixes and we booked him right away. He was also one of the first vendors we booked and he kept in touch with us throughout the entire process. His passion for music and great parties is awesome and we couldn't have asked for a better wedding with many thanks to him. He ran our ceremony, cocktail hour and got our guests down on the dance floor. And throughout our wedding planning process he help IMMENSELY by having a planning packet that helped us think of all the aspects of a wedding, things we would have never even considered thinking about without his help! He also created a custom song for us with short notice about a week before the wedding. One of the highlights of our night was hearing that song come on and dancing with our friend and family. I highly suggest meeting with Drew, he spent hours with us just getting to know us as a couple and our music preferences. He's awesome and we look forward to referring him to everyone we know!

Ladies and gentlemen, if you are in need of the ultimate wedding DJ, look no further and book Drew as soon as you can! There are so many things I could say but until you book him and see all of the amazing thing he does, you truly won't know what you are missing out on. I will start by saying that the DJ was in the top five on my priority list when it came to my budget and planning of my wedding. I truly believe they can make or break not only your guests but your wedding experience. I was really struggling to find a DJ that vibed with my husband and I, while also feeling i could trust that they could vibe the mix of older conservative and young partiers in the crowd. Immediately after contacting him, Drew sent me a detailed packet outlining the wedding minute by minute, with details I never would have thought of on my own. This helped tremendously and I knew I could trust him to do a great job. I got married in Temecula, in the July heat, at an outdoor, hilly, spread out venue with dodgy cell service. Drew got there before he said he would, and he seriously worked his ass off from start to finish. I don't give compliments lightly, and I can honestly say with all of my heart that out of all of my vendors, Drew was by far my favorite. He did everything we asked him to do with no attitude, he takes serious pride in his work, he handles the stress of a wedding day so well, and he truly seems to love what he does. He stayed until the very end. Drew is so much more than a DJ, he is worth every penny. Don't get stuck with a cheesy DJ that clocks in and clocks out for his payday! Drew will make your day!!

Have you ever met someone and you knew INSTANTLY you would get along with them? This was not the case. Why do I say that? Because my husband and I knew it BEFORE we met The Songstruck DJ, aka Drew.

We opted to drive down to San Diego from Los Angeles because we figured it was best to catch Drew on his home turf. Plus if we went over on time during our meeting (and we did), then we wouldn’t feel like he would have to rush home. We met him towards the end of August 2016 and had some of the best tacos ever, chatted and got to know each other, but when it came down to business, it was clear that Drew was definitely no amateur. The laptop cracked open and the focus began. We went through ALL genres of music, from the earliest of music days, to the then-current music. I was so impressed by how thorough he was, that I am pretty sure I spaced out at some point, just to gape in awe and wonder.

Although my husband and I knew we would book him based on comfortability, personality and the fact that Drew doesn’t play the typical top pop songs music list, what clenched the deal for us was a simple question he asked us during the meeting/interview: “What kind of music do your friends and family like to listen to?” Drew’s goal is to have the dance floor constantly full. Due to our wedding venue we didn’t need the additional lighting, but we wanted him there for the ceremony and although our ceremony started at 4, he showed up around 1 to setup!

It’s been over 3 months since our wedding and people are still saying things like, “Man… you guys had such awesome music playing, even before the wedding began. It was so different.” Remember: your wedding dj is the composer for the film that is your wedding. I don’t even know how to summarize how blessed/honored I was to have The Songstruck DJ there to make my day as memorable as he did. There just aren’t enough words (and WW doesn't allow enough space!).

I first met Drew at a Toasted event at Brick, the venue I ended up choosing. I think I was first struck by his eclectic mix of songs and high energy. I reached out to him and got a quick response with many details about the way he does things. He also included an e-book on choosing the best DJ for your wedding, which I think just blew me away. No one does that! I'd been to a ton of weddings where the DJ played the same ol songs. I didn't want to go too low on my DJ budget because I already knew that vibe he set would be the vibe set for the whole wedding. And he talks about that in his philosophy. I then met with Drew for a beer, and he was an awesome dude! He liked a lot of really good music and he was a true DJ, not someone just playing a tape. It mattered to me that he knew a LOT of music. This was one of the easiest decisions for me as far as vendors go. He was very thorough in all his responses. There was only one period when he didn't respond immediately and give me the initial music wedding packet, but he apologized and was quickly on top of everything again after a few back to back weddings. My fiancé and I met him again a few weeks before the wedding to go over our music choices, and I felt very confident about it all. We had an awesome night dancing and singing. Many guests have told me that the dancing was amazing at my wedding. The music matters! Drew is a real, down-to-earth guy who obviously cares a lot about what he does. I agree with Drew: it's worth it to invest in your DJ. Choose SongStruck!
