First, I would use "'til" instead of "till." When I see "till" I think of a cash register or plowing the earth for crops, even though the 2-L spelling is perfectly correct as you are using it.
Otherwise, they are exactly the same thing. Until is the more formal version of its contraction 'til (or till).
Personally, I use "until" almost exclusively. The only place I routinely hear till is in telling the time: It's five till seven. No one would use "until" in this case.
