Photo of Table Manners Productions Events DJ Table Manners Productions Events DJ "Scottie did an awesome job. He came early to setup, was all ready to go well ahead of any quests arriving which set the precedence for how the rest was gonna go. Very professional and laid back and read the audience when it was time to move onto the next thing for the evening. When it came to dancing he played a ton of great hits and mixed songs back to back for a nonstop party. Was always attentive to our needs, came and checked in with us regularly, let the photographers know when he was about to start first dances and toasts, and made sure the spotlight was on us. Highly recommend him and we want him back for a barn party in the future!" Based in Indianapolis (164 miles from Chicago) Joey Zeilge - Private Wedding Photo of Renaldo J Services Renaldo J Services "We hired DJ Squiggles (Renaldo) for our wedding in November, and we couldn't have been more pleased with the experience! He was professional, friendly, organized and attentive to our music preferences. On the day of the wedding, he created a great atmosphere. Multiple friends commented on how good the playlist was, and quite a few of our guests were standing at their tables dancing before dinner was over and the dance floor was formed! We’re so glad we chose him to be part of our special day, and we highly recommend DJ Squiggles!"

From the moment I spoke with Nathan on the phone I knew he would be perfect for our wedding. We had 2 meetings with Nathan and both times he made everything so simple and stress free for us. Any time I had a question and needed to email him, he would respond back almost immediately. He arrived at our wedding before any other vendor did and made sure everything was 100% how I wanted it to be. I couldn't of asked for a better DJ to celebrate our special day with us. We had so many compliments about him after the wedding from multiple guests saying he was absolutely great. Thank you Nathan for being a part of our special day... I'll always recommend you to anyone who is looking for a DJ!
