Like Sound Wave founder Jim Hester, Chris does not see himself as a DJ, but as an entertainer. Chris enjoys interacting with guest whether it's line dancing, interviews during our "married couples" dance, or singing a tune or two. Chris's childhood was spent listening to Motown with his mother. His wide knowledge of music allows him to keep your guest entertained no matter what their age or taste in music.

"What motivates me to entertain is that I approach every wedding as if it was my own daughter's wedding." -- Chris Williams
