I've ended up using something based on the answers in this question.

It sticks to the generated client code, and allows invocation of the operations generically.

The code is incomplete, feel free to fork and edit it. Please notify me if you found any bugs or made any updates.

It's pretty bulky so I'll just share the usage code:

using (var proxy = new ClientProxy())
{
  client.Exception += (sender, eventArgs) =>
  {
    //All the exceptions will get here, can be customized by overriding ClientProxy.
    Console.WriteLine($@"A '{eventArgs.Exception.GetType()}' occurred 
      during operation '{eventArgs.Operation.Method.Name}'.");
    eventArgs.Handled = true;
  };
  client.Invoke(client.Client.MyOperation, "arg1", "arg2");
}
