Corey has always had a creative spirit, love for music, and an entrepreneurial drive. Combined with his attention to detail and high standards, it is no wonder he found his way into the entertainment and event production business.

Corey gained his fabrication skills in the automotive industry restoring/customizing classic cars, and his knowledge of music from his years as a musician and vintage swing music DJ. He is also an internationally recognized vintage swing dance instructor, alongside his wife, Susan Manke.

Corey started as a DJ and Casino Party Dealer for Spangler Entertainment in June of 2018 and quickly advanced as their Operations Manager after their previous Manager retired.

After 20 years of successful events that made Spangler Entertainment the benchmark for quality and dependable entertainment in the Nashville market, Doug and Becky Spangler decided it was time to pass the torch to someone with equal passion and creativity.

Full of innovative ideas, Corey was more than excited to become the new Owner. He has worked extremely hard to gather Nashville's best talent for your event, whatever it may be.

Jenna has been a part of our team since October 2019 and loves being able to utilize her planning and performance skills in the event production industry. As wedding planner, she guides our clients through every step of the planning process, asking them the questions they didn’t know to ask.

“When I began event planning I found a passion I did not know I had. I love getting to know couples and helping them fine tune the overall tone of their special day. The part I love most is assisting with the music selection. I feel that is a big part of your celebration and it is a perfect time to let your personality show!”
