 Chris is just a great guy, he did a good job on my Wedding Day. I'm a DJ and he was under the microscope at my event and since I was part of his training i was happy to see DJ Chris kept things going and did everything we asked, he even had my Father in Law dancing. You will be very happy if you have Chris for your Wedding.....DJ Bob
