We were beyond satisfied with Formal Affair DJ Services! Chris was very professional and easy to work with. He was always easy to reach, by both phone and email. My husband is Colombian, so we requested quite a few non-traditional wedding songs. Not only did Chris find all of the salsas, bachatas, and merengues we requested in advance, but he played them like a pro! He kept the reception moving and knew how to get people out on the dance floor. We all had an amazing time at the reception and we owe it to Chris!

I can't speak more highly of Formal Affair DJ Services. Chris, our DJ, was available to answer all of my emails, crazy questions and phone calls leading up to the big day. He showed up on time, was dressed professionally and did a great job interacting with our guests. He also made it clear up front that our wedding was about my husband and I and he was just there to enhance our day. We had complete freedom over the type of music that was played, when certain songs were played and the flow of the evening.

Formal Affair DJ played a vital role in making our day a huge success!

Chris did such a great job! He played all the music I wanted & even helped us out when no one could remember the line dances! He is very friendly & professional! He is a great dj & the perfect person to MC your wedding or special event!

We're not music people, so we were so glad to have found Chris. He took it all from our hands with just a couple of suggestions of things we generally like and dislike. He accommodated all of our very strange requests, from a specific version of the Tarantella (Italian wedding dance), to a spur of the moment download of a Bavarian Oktoberfest classic. He led us in the line dances, and just made the party happen. We had a small wedding of about 85 people, but most of the time, every single person was on the dance floor! Thanks, Chris!!

Chris really came through for both our ceremony and reception... it was HOT and a unique set up, and Chris was extremely professional and never complained once. We had to rearrange much of our ceremony and reception and Chris was pleasant and flexible...even offering suggestions to help us along the way! The guests enjoyed the music so much they didn't want it to stop! I would recommend Chris for any of your party or wedding needs - he was just fabulous!

It's been more than a week since our wedding, and people are still talking about how much fun they had at the reception! Chris provided amazing entertainment for our guests and kept everybody on the floor for the entire evening. Chris was professional in every way- including his dress, his manner, and his speaking voice. We would hire him again in a heartbeat and would gladly recommend him to family and friends.

He was everything we wanted in a DJ for our wedding reception and more. He made sure to have all of the songs that we wanted played ready to go, and made sure to take requests from the guests. He even used youtube to find one of our guest's very random song request. He makes sure that everyone is having a great time, and even gets out on the dance floor and has a good time himself! He had just the right amount of guest interaction to get everyone up and moving. I have been to some receptions where the DJ seems like he is trying to hard, Chris is a complete natural at what he does. He also emailed me the day before our wedding to ask if I wanted to use his free dance floor lights since we hadn't discussed having them before. The lights really made a difference! I would recommend him to anyone! Thanks so much for making our special day even more memorable!

It's hard to to think of anything that hasn't already been said about how great Chris is! He is a fantastic person to work with and so knowledgeable about music. If you have the chance to hire him, don't hesitate.

Also, our wedding was actually in Columbia, SC not the upstate and he had no problem coming down for it.

Chris was such an awesome DJ! He was very professional and detail oriented, which we greatly appreciated. He played the music we requested and was fabulous announcing the "events" of the reception, such as introducing the wedding party, cake cutting, etc. He is such a nice person as well. His DJ services are much more affordable than others and I couldn't imagine anyone else doing a better job! Thanks Chris!!!

Chris Wagner provided the DJ service for our wedding on April 22, 2011 at the Embassy Suites on Verdae. Both my husband and I are from Bavaria and he incorporated German and Bavarian Songs for us. He found out quickly what the guests danced to most and he kept the crowd going and having fun until late into the night. Everyone had a great time and the dance floor rarely was empty. Wonderful, wonderful wedding reception thanks to Chris Wagner! Friends of ours actually asked Chris for his business card for a future event they will be having. We would hire Chris Wagner anytime again. Great service, very professional, very personable and reasonable all at the same time :-) Thanks Chris for making our day a wonderful memory!

Choosing a DJ is the MOST important part of planning your wedding reception. Your cake, food, flowers, etc will not help you make memories of your special day.
We got SO lucky finding Chris. During the planning he was professional without being stuffy, personable, laid back, flexible, and I never had a worry about him or what to expect. When our bridal party had a slight issue and were an hour late arriving, Chris kept our guests informed and entertained. Then when the party got going, he kept the dance floor full... ALL night! He had all of the music we requested, played it at appropriate times and brought the dancer out of people that didn't know they had it in them! I have to add, I had many of my female friends asking me whether he was "available" also. If I were to arrange another occasion appropriate for a DJ, I would reschedule it if Chris wasn't available. I hope this helps!

Formal Affairs was a wonderful wonderful DJ Service for my reception! Formal Affairs payed attention to my notes, "do-not-plays," and was in constant contact with me throughout the recpetion to make sure things were going the way I wanted. They also knew how to cater to the variety of ages that came to my recpetion. From Oldies, to Hip-Hop the choices made everyone stay on the dance floor and have a great time!
Thank you FORMAL AFFAIRS DJ SERVICES!

Chris Wagner of Formal Affair DJ Services was amazing! Chris handled all of the MC duties and remained flexible throughout my daughter's wedding! Once we handed Chris the list of introductory and first dance songs, he knew what the tone of the whole evening was to be and played the music accordingly. As the evening progressed, he was able to gauge the age of the remaining guests and adjusted the music accordingly - read - once the older people left, the music took on the perfect tone for the mostly college-aged crowd! The party was a hit!!! I highly recommend Formal Affair for any event as I trust his ability to keep the crowd happy and the party going! He is a professional who went above and beyond everything we expected from a DJ for our daughter's wedding!

He is an amazing DJ! My husband and I are hispanic and from Florida. We had our wedding in South Carolina and all of our friends and family had a blast with Chris. He found great music that fit our atmosphere and took any requests that we asked for. Nobody stopped dancing (for 3 hours!) He was also on hand last minute for our ceremony. Everything came out perfect and considering we didn't live in South Carolina, Chris was very good at responding to my emails and calls and flexible in meeting with us whenever we made visits prior to the wedding. I would recommend him to anyone!

If you want a professional, choose a "Formal Affair." Chris was fun yet extremely professional. The music and service was exceptional. Thanks Chris!

Chris did a fabulous job at our wedding reception! He was great at adapting on the fly and making the night feel stress-free for me (the bride), and so much fun for everyone. He responds quickly to emails and is friendly to deal with. I would definitely recommend Chris to anyone who asked!
