We are feeling extremely grateful for choosing Drew and Cornerstone Entertainment as our wedding DJ. The attention to detail and ability to orchestrate our musical wishes was truly impressive. We appreciated his calm and patient demeanor while troubleshooting challenges that occurred during set up. In the end, we couldn’t have been happier with the music and Drew. Our memories will last forever and he was a vital part of making those memories perfect.
Absolutely an amazing experience with Cornerstone Entertainment! Would give 10 stars for the professional and incredible job by Drew!!!
The owner, Drew Kondo, is a consummate professional with excellent communication skills. Everything went smoothly before, during, and following our wedding. Drew gave me clear specs for designing my own photo strip template and tested it out beforehand. He also has several great designs to choose from, but I utilized my graphic design skills for an extra custom look. I’m glad he let me know about his dietary restrictions so we didn’t order a vendor meal for him. At the end of the night, he gave us a flash drive with all of the photo booth images, which he later posted in an online gallery that we were able to share with family and friends. Thanks, Drew!
Drew and his wife were awesome!
They played some sweet tunes and everyone boogied pretty good through the night. Leading up to the wedding, Drew was easy to communicate with and understood what we wanted from our DJ.
To top it all off, they even gave us a really thoughtful congratulatory card before they left for the evening!
We had a great experience booking Drew as our wedding DJ. He is extremely organized and great at keeping the lines of communication open. Once booked, he gets to work immediately planning every detail regarding his services so that everything runs smoothly on the day of the event. He takes the time to really get to know the couple and get a feel for their musical tastes. This, combined and his great skill as a DJ and reading the crowd, kept the dance floor completely FULL for our entire reception. Above all, this is what we loved the most.
Drew was very flexible when coordinating the equipment setup. We had a rather remote venue with a number of cabling constraints, but he was on top of everything and asked a lot of questions so that he was able to run everything like clockwork on a rather hectic day. He showed up early, stayed late, and was 100% professional for the entire process. You won't be disappointed choosing Cornerstone!
Drew and Rheba were perfect! We were very specific in the music we wanted and we got exactly what we wanted. Very professional and knew exactly what to do. Made my wedding flow with ease. Thank you, highly recommend.
We hired Cornerstone Entertainment for the photo booth at our wedding at Edgewood Tahoe, and they were fantastic! Everybody had a blast with the photobooth and it definitely got a lot of use. We used the silver backdrop and it came out really well in the pictures and we even got to pick a custom design for them with our own special wording. We received all of the pictures within less than a week. Highly recommend!
My husband and I live in Colorado which makes it hard to plan a wedding in Tahoe. Not with Drew he was so involved and easy to work with. The DJ (Reba) was super sweet and truly listened to all our request and made the dance floor popping! I can't forget the photo booth... It was the life of the party! Drew and his team were so professional, kind, flexible, punctual and all around just stress free! I would recommend Cornerstone Entertainment to everyone!
We had a wonderful time working with Drew. He sent us a pocket well in advance to organize our wedding and flow. About a week before the wedding we touched base again to work out any last minute details. Drew was very personal yet professional. He was such a pleasure to work with. He was a big part of making our wedding day so amazing. He was in constant communication with one of us about any changes that needed to be made mid wedding. We had a fantastic time working with him! We even received a thank you note from him in our gifts when we opened them which was very kind and unnecessary as he was so helpful to making our day so perfect.
Working with Drew was great. Prior to the wedding, Drew was extremely professional, thoughtful, and timely. I was initially worried about how we were going to keep my wedding crowd entertained and dancing given that people were either in their late 20s/early 30s or late 60s/early 70s, but Drew made it happen! People were dancing the entire time! Go and book Drew NOW!
A brief but intense weather event changed our daughter's wedding from outdoor, to indoor, back to outdoor. In the moments leading to our final decision, Drew was calm, professional, and flexible. Drew and Karissa were able to redeploy their equipment (which is excellent), quickly providing a flawless sound system for the Pastor's message and the ceremonial music.
During the reception, Drew's planning, professionalism, and communication skills continued to shine. The smoothness in which he directed the flow of the evening was superior; from announcing the arrival of the wedding party, the meal, the toasts, cutting the cake, and first dance. And after that, he presided over a fantastic celebration with music and dance. Choose Drew and Cornerstone Entertainment. You will be more than satisfied!
Drew and his wife Karissa were our DJ's at our wedding in Tahoe. They were the best part of the wedding. They had all our guests dancing the entire night and took requests from our four year old son to our grandma. My husband and I loved that they have us fill out a questionnaire about what music we like/dislike, songs we wanted played/not played, generes we prefer, and songs for every major moment of the wedding. I had songs that are NOT common and Drew made sure to research and find them. Drew and Karissa were the reason our wedding went so smoothly. They completely took the lead when it came to announcing the appetizers, the wedding party, the dinner, cake, bouquet toss, etc. Every guest mentioned how they never had to sit there and guess what was next because the DJ's made it such a smooth process. The best part was when we got to our room and we were going through cards, they gave us a wedding card. It's little things like that that make you really appreciate people and can tell they are perfect at what they do. If we lived closer, we would have them for everything we do. Absolutely loved them!!!!
Drew is Outstanding! He met with me and my now husband before our wedding and had a great little worksheet to get us thinking about the reception and who will say what etc. He also had a fantastic song list that really helped! Drew was really understanding even when I didn't get stuff to him on time. The best part was that he was super accommodating when we had issues with getting mics for our ring ceremony. He helped make sure the sound was perfect for that. He kept us on schedule and the music was great! He knows what songs to get people dancing!
I attended a wedding in Tahoe City July 18, 2015 where Drew Kondo was the DJ. However, "DJ" falls far short of how I would describe Drew Kondo. He did an excellent job of engaging the guests and keeping everyone on there feet. He was funny and fun, while always keeping his professional personna in tact. I would definitely hire him for an event knowing that he would make it one which would not soon be forgotten. ~ Nixie Sanseverino
My husband and I got married at Kirkwood Mountain Resort in September 2014. Drew was very flexible when our outdoor plans for both the ceremony and reception became indoor plans at the last-minute due to rain and snow. He arrived very early and was set-up with time to spare. In addition to setting-up microphones for our harpist and pastor, he also equipped my keyboard and bridesmaid for a worship song we led. Drew was very punctual. He guided the events of the night and helped us stay on schedule (i.e. grand entrance, first dances, etc.). We were impressed by Drew's professionalism. Per our request, he informed the guests ahead of time that they would get the opportunity to make a toast following the bridal party and parents as well as politely yet articulately requested they keep it brief. He faded our songs for the first dance, father-daughter dance when we requested. We let Drew choose all the songs for the rest of the night (highly recommended). He played a nice variety that got all ages out on the dance floor and read the crowd well. Our dance floor wasn't large enough for the number of people dancing! We decided to extend the party 30 minutes past our planned ending time because there were so many people still there, many of whom were dancing!
Drew is absolutely amazing at his job. Picking a DJ is probably the hardest part of a wedding. If you've never heard them you really don't know what to expect, from the moment we met Drew we knew we were in good hands. He's so professional and easy going. We just got married this weekend in Placerville, CA; he drove all the way out there and didn't think twice about it. He played all the right music and just the right time. He's so great at reading the crowd and keeping everyone dancing. At one point my husband and I left the dance floor and went and mingled with some guest over in our lounge area, and every time we looked over at the dance floor there were people out there dancing and having a great time. We can't thank you enough Drew for how amazing our day turned out. We would highly recommend you to anyone who is willing to listen. Thank you again.

Drew was an awesome DJ. He did our wedding a couple weeks ago. To be perfectly honest, I had no idea how to hire a DJ. Drew patiently explained what he had, gave youtube videos, explained why it would all work out, and then quoted a price that blew everyone else out of the water.
The dancing was awesome. He killed it. He did everything we asked for, and then everything our guests asked for. Seriously, this is a great DJ.
Beforehand, he was perfect too. My wife and I didn't know what we wanted. I'm pretty sure we got into a fight in the venue in front of him when "planning." He didn't care. He told us what he needed, then delivered above and beyond.
Hire this dude.
I am delighted with Cornerstone DJ Services and could not have been more pleased. Drew worked with us on the the playlist and courteously encouraged us to trust him with some choices that did not fit ours as an over-sixty couple. What he chose fit the bill perfectly for our guests and I lost count of the number who came up to me to ask me where I'd found the DJ! His professionalism showed in his treatment of us, of the location staff and -- especially -- the guests.
