hi! I have know Brad Shroeder for over 20 years now and have seen him do absolutely great things with the microphone when he is working! He is very interactive with the crowd, and has a plethora of music that is for every genre. His sound system and light show is 2nd to none and can handle any size venue no matter how small or large. I am on the Lanphier High School class of 1975 and Brad has committed to doing our 50 year reunion in September of 2025. I must say that if you are looking for a top quality DJ to do your Christmas Party, graduation, wedding, or just a fun get together, make it a point to contact Brad Schroeder and get him locked in for your party. You will be very happy that you did!
It is my pleasure for me to write a reference for Schroeder's DJ Service. Last year, we had Brad and his DJ service for a family reunion in Arcola, IL. Brad was very thorough in the whole process, contract wise, arriving early for the event, playing a variety of music much to the delight for us and for those attending. He was a joy to work with. We like him so much, that we have contracted with him again for our 65th Wedding Anniversary celebration coming up in September, 2023. Just like the reunion, he has been very thorough, satisfying all of our requests, and staying in touch. We look forward to his services again. For anyone interested in a classy DJ, I would highly recommend Brad Schroeder. You will be impressed and will enjoy his services.
Brad and his partner were amazing throughout the entire process. We first met Brad at a wedding in Springfield. He was doing a great job so we talked to him about doing our own wedding. He did a magnificent job throughout. We met once before to go over the details i.e. what dances/songs to play. We didn’t have it fully together at the time but it was no problem to Brad. We emailed him the requests after. Come day of the wedding Brad then reassured me that everything was going to run smooth going over some of the details that were provided before. It felt good knowing that arguably one of the most important pieces was in good hands. The songs that we discussed were spot on all night during the reception and we had the entire wedding party dancing. It was a great time. Thank you again Trust in Brad and his team. They did a great job and we were honored to have him and his company on our special day. I would highly recommend. Nick Tannahill
If you are looking for a DJ for your party, I highly recommend Schroeder DJ Service. We used them for our daughter's wedding and had a blast. Brad is very professional and I did not have to worry about details with the music. He played a variety of music so the dance floor was packed all night. Many of the guests complimented us on the music selections as well. We will definitely use them again. Kathy Smith
If you are planning a wedding, party or special event DJ Brad Schroeder would be a great choice to entertain for you. He is very professional, articulate and organized, plus a great sense of humor. He played at our wedding on September 30, 2022. He did a tremendous job for us so we highly recommend him. Donna and Bogy Czesak
Lesley and I want to thank you Brad for doing an amazing job and making our day special! We appreciate everything you did for us!! Our wedding was held at Prairie View in Chatham. It was a great venue and your services providing announcements and an extensive selection of music made for an enchanting evening. Our guests stayed on the dance floor with us the whole night!
Brad Schroeder was the DJ for a party we recently had in Springfield to celebrate our son's wedding. Brad was professional from start to finish. He met with us in advance to make sure we all expected the same kind of event, which was in a party room at a restaurant. He allowed us to send a list of preferred songs. On the day of the event, he was at the venue in plenty of time, and helped provide just the atmosphere we wanted. He helped keep things going at critical points with appropriate announcements. The party brought together a lot of old friends, so there were many conversations going on. Brad provided great background music for dinner and turned it up just right for some dancing and post-dinner festivities. All in all, it was great to have him there, and he helped make the party a great success. Bernie and Kim Schoenburg
Brad, Another great party! Saputo's has been using your DJ service for 20 years and you are like a fine wine you get better with age. Thank you for great and prompt service. You are a true professional! All the best, I look forward to your next event. Sincerely, Mike Coffey
We used Brad Schroeder DJ Service for our 30th Anniversary party. He did the upmost great and professional job during our party. He entertained and kept the party interesting with his involvement with the guest....He took the time out before we had our party and met with us and got our input on what we wanted, and he exceeded every expectation that we wanted. I would definitely use him again, and be referring him to friend and family if they are in need of a DJ!
I had the privilege of Brad DJing both of my boys weddings. Brad is very professional, responsible and a real pro. It is obvious he has been doing it for a long time. He was great working with the couples on their music lists, and all the intricacies that go into a wedding reception. He helped make the planning much less stressful. The wedding party and guests all had a terrific time and Brad really helped keep the party going! I highly recommend Brad for anyone looking for a great DJ and even better, at a very reasonable price for such great service. Dave
Brad was friendly and professional at the same time. He liked to be interactive with the crowd. Brad let us know what he needed for set. He also kept in contact with my daughter the bride so she could tell him what songs she wanted played and when to play them. We were very pleased with Brad's services. Thank you Kara Reber
I’m writing this letter of recommendation on behalf of DJ Brad Schroeder. I’ve known him for over 40 years I’ve never met a person with such a love and passion for music. It didn’t surprise me at all that he picked a profession involving music. Over the years I’ve been to several events from weddings to karaoke where Brad was the DJ. He does a great job of keeping his audience entertained. If I have a need a DJ service Brad would be the first person I’d call to see if he’s available. You should too.
We have had the pleasure to work with Brad on a number of events. His service is top notch and he is very crowd friendly and works to involve the crowd in things and accommodate their requests as much as possible. The choices of songs he plays is excellent and always appropriate to the type of function. I would highly recommend Brad's services for your next function/party. Mike Ray Riverton Knights of Columbus #3914 Riverton, IL
Schroeders D.J. Service Is Incredible!! In 1989 we got engaged and first met with Brad Schroeder amongst other D.J.'s. Brad was very professional and friendly. We asked alot of questions and he kindly and patiently answered them all and offered his D.J.services at a great cost. He was very thorough with his explanation of what he would bring & how he would set up, the amount of time he would play at our wedding reception, and even gave us some good tips on how he would motivate our guests to participate on the dance floor. We were excited after meeting with him and knew we wanted to use his services. In July 1990 we got married and Brad Schroeder did D.J. our wedding reception and totally exceeded our expectations. Brad's announcement of us as husband and wife was eloquent and we loved the sentimental touch he put on the slow dances we had with our parents. He played all the music we requested as well as the songs many of our guests requested. It was such a blast! Our dance floor was packed with us and our loved ones laughing and dancing the night away. My brothers were having so much fun that they decided to offer Brad an extra tip and asked him if he would play an extra hour and he did. Our families & us still talk about what a fun night it was. 10 years later in 2000 we decided to renew our wedding vows and hired Schroeder's D.J. service again to do our anniversary party. Once again we were so pleased with what an exciting night it was. Brad pays attention to details in the timing our our special moments and helps the crowd come together in celebrating for us as well as having a fun time. He is upfront about what you can expect and always does what he can to accommodate any requests we have. He has a large variety of music and did a great job choosing the right songs to play for our different ages of guests. He has such a skillful way of keeping the party going and upbeat. In 2015 we were celebrating our 25 year, Silver anniversary. Our kids inspired us to have a big party to commemorate this special milestone. Along with our 2 children, we planned a kid friendly celebration which we knew after all these years, we wanted to include Schroeder's D.J. service to make it a fun event. We are so grateful that we chose a service that had the know-how to play the sentimental music we wanted during our dinner time and could appropriately change to the cheerful music that our kids & us preferred when we wanted our party liven up. We will always have this great memory of the awesome time we shared through the music with our loved ones and especially our children, honoring our blessed years together and then dancing and singing along-laughing to the hits we grew to love together. Thank You to Brad Schroeder and Schroeder's D.J. Service for your years of expertise! If you want an Experienced, Reasonably Priced, Professional, and Fun D.J. service; we 100% Recommend Schroeder's D.J. Service. It's Top Notch!! Nick & JoAnn Angeli-Jiardina
have attended many weddings that were DJ’d by Schroeder’s DJ service over the past 5 years……Mr Schroeder is very professional and does a wonderful job of announcing, playing wedding games and MC’ing the wedding party and keeping the whole evening entertained with all the music, old & new that he plays by request and by prior arrangements……Mr Schroeder also DJ’s many party’s , birthday, anniversary, poolside, and whatever type is requested….his prices are reasonable and I highly recommend him for your DJ needs …..Yolanda Deutchman
Brad Schroeder was the DJ for my co-worker’s wedding in Decatur. He provided music and equipment for both the wedding ceremony and reception. The events were held outdoors, and the evening went smoothly with people dancing into the early evening. He announced all formalities and kept things moving throughout the night. I recommend Schroeder’s DJ Service and he ended up with a referral for another wedding that night! Lisa Reilly
I wanted to thank Brad Schroeder’s DJ Service for his job at my wedding. He played all of my requests and was great taking my friends requests. The music volume was perfect for the night. I didn’t have to worry about the order of things as he announced all events during the night. People stayed and all night to dance to the music and his work was appreciated. I recommend Schroeder’s DJ Service for all events! Dawn B.
I would like to thank Brad for the DJ Services he recently provided for my niece's wedding. He had an extensive selection of songs and accepted song requests throughout the evening. He got the guests involved during the reception by playing 'the shoe game', which everyone enjoyed. Due to Covid restrictions, the reception had to be rescheduled from 2020 and Brad was accommodating with transferring the contract and payment to a new date. Again, we appreciate Brad's efforts and engagement with the wedding couple and guests. I recommend his DJ services to anyone in need of an affordable and engaging DJ for any event. Dana F.
Our family reunion gathering was fortunate to have Brad Schroeder dj service for over three hours on Monday July 12th 2021. Brad came early and stayed late providing a wonderful variety of music. He inter-acted with us with clever and thoughtful comments. His price was fair and all went as planned. I would recommend him highly. Richard Boyer
As the owner of The Farm and The Loft B&B, I would just like to express my satisfaction with Schroeder’s DJ Service. Brad has worked several weddings at our venue here at The Farm near Petersburg. He is always timely, professional, and very knowledgeable about music. He knows how to get people on the dance floor! I recommend him. Gail Adamski Owner The Farm and The Loft B&B Petersburg
We wanted to thank you for the services you provided as the DJ for our wedding at Eastland Estates in Bloomington, IL on February 6th. You did a great job with both, the wedding and the reception. The microphone you provided helped with the vows and came in handy for the many toasts as well. You worked well with the venue staff and played many favorite songs off of our play list. Thanks for also taking requests from the guests; everyone enjoyed the music that was played. We are happy to refer your services anytime! Ashley & Russell D
Brad was amazing! He catered to our every need. Also, being a fellow Chiefs fan, he brought some great memorabilia for us to take pictures with and made our special day even better. He recommended some great plans to make our day go smoothly. I had no stress what-so-ever the day of our wedding. Brad took care of us well! I would highly recommend to anyone. Brooke & Nick P.
Thank you for your flexibility and willingness to work with us on our wedding date with the changes requested. We were pleased with the events during the evening. The music volume was perfect for the outside reception and we appreciate that you played numerous songs from the list provided. I know you couldn’t get to ALL of the songs, but the ones chosen kept the dancers going all night long. I was surprised by how great the dancing was and how many people you were able to keep on the dance floor considering we were outside to allow for a larger group to celebrate our wedding. We appreciate your music background, which helped make our wedding reception a success. We recommend your services for any type of event and are looking forward to having you provide DJ Services for my daughter’s wedding this Fall. THANK YOU!! Shawn & Christine Smith
Thank you so much for creating the environment and playing music at our wedding reception. We enjoyed both times we met with you and had a blast at the wedding. Everyone told us they had a great time and you played a big role in that. We appreciate your willingness to still come despite the crazy times we are in. Thank You! Jacklyn & Josh
Thank you for stepping in at the last minute to provide DJ Services for the recent party. Your company was great, very professional throughout the evening and did an excellent job. Our preference was Southern Rock and the music played was perfect for our group. We will be pleased to use your company again in the future as entertainment needs arise. Ronnie McClure, BBMC Sierra Company
Dear DJ Brad Schroeder, Thank you for your DJ services for the Valentine's Day Dance on February 15, 2020, at the American Legion Post 103. You arrived on time and in proper attire for the occasion. Your outgoing and courteous personality radiated through the entire night. The extreme variety of songs you played were spot on, especially for the vast age difference in our crowd. You had songs that were requested prior to, as well as the ones requested at the dance. You kept our night dancing until the end! We will be hiring you again (as long as the date is available, lol)! Sincerely, Angela Marstein, Post Adjutant, Event Coordinator American Legion Post 103
Huge thank you DJ Brad Schroeder for making Webers Front Row the best Superbowl party in St Louis. Your dedication and professionalism was above and beyond. Your unlimited catalog of music really kept myself and my staff motivated and enthused. Thank you for emceeing our raffle and keeping our guests involved. With you leading the charge, Webers Front Row raised over $1600 for Make a Wish Foundation. Without you, none of this would have been possible. Brad, you definitely deserve my deepest appreciation and highest recommendation for future events. Thank you so much! Jeff Hrasky Manager Webers Front Row Webster Groves, MO
We recently celebrated our 10th Anniversary with a party for friends and family at Erin’s Pavilion. Brad Schroeder was the DJ for our wedding 10 years ago and also for our anniversary party. Brad was professional and helpful with music and video/access for our electronic photo scrapbook of our adventures together. He was able to help facilitate our party throughout the night. He took requests from the kids and adults, which helped keep the group on the dance floor throughout the evening. Brad was entertaining and engaging and has become like family being with us on two of the most important days of our life. A highlight of the evening was that he gave us medals commemorating ours 10 years of marriage. The guests enjoyed themselves and one of my co-workers commented that Brad was very sweet and made the evening very fun. We definitely recommend Brad’s services for any event. Samantha & Dustin
I am writing to offer my recommendation for Brad Schroeder of Schroeder’s DJ Services. He is a well-known DJ in the Springfield area and has been recognized as one of the best DJs in the area. He is also reasonably priced without letting his services lack in any way. Brad is a great DJ. He is friendly, professional, and takes pride in his work. He respected our wishes, while still setting his own with not allowing explicit music. We respected him even more for taking pride in himself and his business, to not be associated with that kind of music expectation. He took requests from the guests; however, he ultimately followed the wishes of the bride and groom. Brad was able to adapt the music selection for our wedding to the guests on the dance floor. He adapted as necessary and took unplanned changes in stride. Brad was also fun and interactive with the guests, evident when playing the shoe game, encouraging guests to dance, and he even set up a dance off. I highly recommend Brad Schroeder as a DJ for events of all kinds. Mr. and Mrs. Donelson
Thank you for providing the entertainment for my “Eastern Star” group for the last 15+ years. We enjoy having you each year and appreciate how you get the guests involved in the evening’s activities. There are members from across the country who attend the event annually. You have always done a great job providing just the right music to go with the theme, which varies from year to year. We plan to continue using your service in the future. Thank you, again, for your great service over the years. Damon S.
Thank you as we had a blast at our wedding reception. I was pleased with you playing the requests off the list we provided throughout the night. The theme of the evening was “Diner Night”. The music you played help set the mood for the evening and the trivia you came up with was fun for the guests. You made sure the toasts and announcements were made in a timely manner. Thanks for making our night a special night for us. We are happy to refer you and your DJ Services. Trish
Thank you for doing the party for my family. I was in the wedding and was thankful that you told us what we were supposed to do during the ceremony. Everyone was able to hear the vows clearly with the use of the wireless microphone and sound system during the wedding ceremony. The reception was organized and the music was great the whole night. It was an enjoyable, fun day for all of us. Thank you again, Joey S.
Thank you for your contributions to my BIG DAY! After all the planning and meetings everything went GREAT! The music and use of the microphone for our wedding ceremony was appreciated and perfect for the day. My family loves to dance and you had all of us on the dance floor the entire night. Everyone danced and had a great time at the reception. There were many requests that you worked in while managing to work off of the music list we provided as well. You have done many functions for my family over the last 20 years. They have always been fun and unique, with everyone having a great time and enjoying themselves. Should anyone need Musical Entertainment and DJ Services, I am happy to recommend you. THANK YOU!!!! Julie & John R
My wife’s 50th birthday, a pretty big deal to me and my family. I hired your service for two reasons. I heard you were great with the dance music and very engaging with the karaoke aspect of the evening. I was very impressed that you were able to satisfy both the college aged kids and the older adult crowd that joined us for the evening’s celebration. You had people engaged, dancing and singing from 7 P.m. to midnight. I was happy that the different age groups participated and everyone stayed for the whole evening. My wife, Robin, celebrating her 50th birthday had a great time singing and catching up with old friends. Your service helped make the evening a success. Both the dance music and the karaoke went over great with people of all ages. I would be happy to recommend your service to others for parties of any type, not just birthday parties. Thank you again, Brad, for helping make my wife’s birthday a huge success. Dave K.
B-Rad...I don't think I got a chance to say thank you, so here it is. Thanks so much for providing DJ services for our daughter's wedding. We were so happy with how everything worked out. You had the place engaged, the kids dancing and overall made the experience perfect for our daughter and her husband. You kept the dance floor packed the entire evening; those kids had a blast! Hope you had some fun too. Thank you again for everything and I look forward to working with you again. Have a blessed day! Susan and Mike C.
We wanted to send a note of thanks for providing the music at our wedding on August 24th at the Route 66 Hotel. You came highly recommended and our expectations were high for the evening’s events. We were pleased with both the wedding ceremony and the reception. Your comments were very helpful in keeping the reception running in an organized fashion. We were impressed when you took the microphone around the room for the guests to “share their thoughts” on our big day. However, what was most pleasing was that you played the entire evening from 3 p.m. to midnight, as our guests stayed on the dance floor all night! Thank you, Brad, for helping make our day even more special. We can see why you’ve been in business for 35 years with the professionalism shown and skills keeping the guests engaged throughout the evening. We will gladly refer you for future events. John U.
We would like to thank you for your contribution to another successful pool party for the residents of Chatham Hills. We have used your services for several years to provide musical entertainment, including the karaoke system. The residents were pleased that you played their requests throughout the evening and the karaoke was a huge hit the night of the party. We had a diverse group of guests and singers for karaoke and you were able to provide music to suit everyone’s tastes and style. You’ve always done a great job providing musical entertainment for the pool party and we will continue to use Schroeder’s DJ Services for future events, including the 6th Annual Resident Pool Party. Thanks-Scott E.
I want to thank you for providing music and emcee services for my parent’s 50th Wedding Anniversary celebration. The intro song was timed perfectly and was exactly how we wanted it for the evening. The dinner went well with the songs played from 1969, the year they were married. The entire original wedding party was able to attend the party and the musical choices from that era kept them, and the other guests, on the dance floor throughout the evening. I had no reservations using Schroeder’s DJ Services for the anniversary celebration based on the professional services they provided for my wedding in August 2004. I will gladly refer Schroeder’s DJ Service to family and friends for future events, and to potential clients reading your reviews. John M
Thank you for providing a successful night for my daughter’s wedding reception held recently in Champaign, IL. I appreciate that you were willing to travel the distance for the event. You kept the reception events on schedule and flowing smoothly as the night progressed. The sound level of the music was perfect and your song choices kept the guests on the dance floor for the entire evening. Thank you, again, for a successful evening. Mary M.
We would like to thank you for the services provided for our daughter Amanda’s wedding and reception held at The Firefighter’s Club. We were pleased with the sound provided for the wedding ceremony and the music selections for the reception. The announcements were handled in a professional manner and kept the events on schedule. The guests indicated that you played their requests which helped keep the dance floor full throughout the evening. Thank you again for helping make the day memorable. We will gladly refer you to friends and family in the future. Nancy & Donnie DeHeve
We would like to thank you, again, for providing the music and entertainment for the party we recently had to celebrate our 35th wedding anniversary and my mother’s 100th Birthday Party. With your help and direction, the scheduled events were kept on the timeline laid out for the afternoon. We had many guests from out of town who appreciated the afternoon staying on schedule allowing them to keep their travel plans since the party was held on a holiday weekend. You worked well with the hypnotist hired for the event. His performance was a hit with the crowd and your interaction with him was great. The medal you gave to my husband and me for celebrating our 35th wedding anniversary was a nice personal touch as well, reflecting the interest you take in the clients and events you cover. We were pleased with your services and are happy to refer you to friends and family, as well as use your services again in the future. Karen & Terry
We were very pleased with the DJ services Brad Schroeder provided for our daughter's wedding reception on April 13, 2019. Since our daughter is in the Marine Corps and stationed in Hawaii, she and my son in law were married in a civil ceremony there and awaiting their leave to return home to celebrate with a reception here in Illinois. Brad was very respectful of everyone's needs as we finalized arrangements beforehand and his experience was evident at the party as he kept everything on track and not only helped to make it a very personal experience but also a very fun time. Everyone commented on what a great job he did. We would definitely recommend his services to others.
Schroeder’s DJ Service provided the musical entertainment and emcee services for the election night party celebrating my re-election as the Mayor of Springfield. The background music level was perfect for the celebration, allowing for conversations as the election results came in throughout the evening. The announcements to keep the crowd updated on the results as the evening progressed were helpful as well. Thank you for providing your wireless microphone, ensuring the crowd could hear my victory speech. After my speech, the celebration began with many friends, supporters, and family members dancing to the music selections you chose and the song requests you played. Thank you for the services provided on election night.
Brad recently provided entertainment for our Jr. High dance this year as well as last year. He is great interacting with the students, plays appropriate and fun music as well as announced the games we played. Thanks again, Brad, the kids had a great time!
Brad did a fantastic job at our wedding everyone had a great time. Brad was friendly and very professional and accommodating to all of our requests. We will use his services in the future and would definitely recommend him to our friends and family.
I hired Schroeder’s DJ Service to provide music for the annual HOPE’S Cowboy Christmas Event. After his performance at my event, I recommended his services for the holiday military event to be held at the same venue the following day. He provided music and emcee services for that event as well. Brad arrived appropriately dressed for the rustic atmosphere each day and promptly set up to ensure the background music was playing prior to the arrival of the guests. The selection of music Brad played for each event was suitable to the theme keeping the guests interested in the activities and encouraging them to stay for the duration of both of the events. There were several requests for songs throughout the day and Brad gladly accommodated the requests working them into planned playlist. I have worked with Schroeder’s DJ Service, and Brad specifically, for several events over many years and am happy to recommend his services for people in need of event entertainment.
I hired Brad Schroeder to provide music and entertainment, including karaoke, for my wife’s 40th Birthday Party. The musical bar was set high because my wife used to sing in a band and Brad hit the mark with the musical selections he played. The choices were upbeat and fun, with lots of 80’s rock which appealed to the guests. Brad was accommodating of the song requests he received from the guests, as well, keeping them involved in the festivities. The volume of the music was just right allowing for conversations among those not on the dance floor. Once the karaoke competition started, numerous guests jumped in to participate in the singing. The karaoke was such a hit with the guests that we asked Brad to extend his play time for a couple hours, which he gladly did. All of the guests enjoyed the karaoke and Brad even jumped in to sing a few songs, although he was excluded from the competition. Yes, we even awarded a karaoke champion trophy at the end of the evening. The birthday party was a success with all of the guests having a great time. I recommend that if you are considering having DJ Services for a birthday party, or any party for that matter, that you make Schroeder’s DJ Service your choice. We all enjoyed the evening and appreciate Brad’s contribution to make the party memorable.
Brad Schroeder was the DJ for our wedding in November 2018, held at the Route 66 Hotel in Springfield. Brad provided his services for both our wedding and the reception which were held at the same venue. Prior to the date of our wedding, we met with Brad several times to review musical choices and the other pertinent details related to the ceremony and reception to ensure everything would run smoothly, nothing would be overlooked and there would be no surprises the day of the event. The wedding ceremony was small and intimate, which was important to us and the highlight of the day. Brad was spot on with the music played during the ceremony and we were very pleased with the selections he chose based on our tastes shared during our meetings. Brad transitioned to the area set up for the reception while we were having pictures taken. During that time, he kept the guests entertained with background music and general update announcements. He was very conscientious of keeping the event on schedule with the timing of the necessary announcements related to dinner, cutting the cake and the various dances. The reception room was large and there were no problems with hearing him speak during any of the announcements or the transitions between songs played throughout the evening. In addition to the songs we wanted Brad to play during the reception, he took requests from the guests. The dance floor lit up with the flashing lights he provided and the up-lights placed around the room were a nice addition. Our wedding ceremony and reception were enjoyable and we are more than happy to recommend Brad and Schroeder’s DJ Service for future events of any kind. Kara & Marty
I recently held an employee appreciation party at a local banquet hall. I chose Schroeder’s DJ Service to provide entertainment for the evening as Brad had been the DJ for my wedding several years ago and I was familiar with his professionalism and enthusiasm when providing entertainment for events. I wanted a fun, interactive evening for my employees and Brad suggested that karaoke in the mix would do the trick. Brad was helpful with the dinner announcements, as well as, keeping the planned activities on schedule. We had several baking contests throughout the night and Brad announced and congratulated the winners with flair. For karaoke, we had around 10 singers and everyone had fun whether they were participating or watching from the sidelines. Brad brought a lighting system and up-lights for the room which added to the party atmosphere. Brad and his DJ Service were prompt, well dressed, and provided fantastic emcee services for the evening. This is the second time I’ve used Brad’s services and will do so again for future events. I gladly recommend Schroeder’s DJ Services for any event you may be planning.
Schroeder’s DJ Service provided the music for our Halloween parties for both 2017 and 2018 at our local church. We were very specific in the type of music and atmosphere we wanted for our holiday party. Brad did a nice job of providing the music, entertainment and announcements throughout the evening. The volume of music was perfect for the kids, but not too loud for the adults, at the church gathering. We, as a church group, are happy to recommend Brad and his DJ Service to any person or group for any events they are planning. Angela Harris
We can’t thank you enough for the DJ services you provided for our wedding and reception held at Longbridge. You were highly recommended by family and friends that have used your services in the past. We were very pleased with your coordination of the events for the ceremony held outside in the afternoon and the evening reception held in the tent at the venue. Thankfully, even with the extreme heat, we were able to enjoy all aspects of our big day and are glad that everything went without a hitch. The sound level was spot on during the ceremony for the musical selections, the Pastor’s words, and the exchange of vows. The guests were able to hear everything clearly and concisely with the equipment provided. Once we moved inside for the reception, your professionalism was evident in the coordination of events. You arranged the songs provided from our list for the background music in a harmonious order for smooth transition from one song to the next. The cake cutting and various dance combinations went as planned and we were impressed with the music selection you prepared. As the evening progressed, the remaining guests were primarily our friends, so it was a younger crowd and you adapted the music to the group, which was appreciated. The lighting effects looked great and provided an extra element of fun. The last two hours the dance floor was packed and you kept the guests engaged with your banter. We appreciate that you played our guests requests while staying true to our song preferences as well. Thank you for your efforts coordinating the music and events for our wedding. You definitely had an impact on the success of the day’s events. Thank You-Ryan & Cassie Dudley
I just wanted to thank you again for the wonderful job you did for the family pool party this month. I knew when I referred them to you that they would be making a great choice. My wife loved singing the karaoke!! Everyone enjoyed the music and you guys really added to the experience...Thanks for making my reference a credible one. I won't hesitate to refer you in the future!!
Thank you for providing a great party atmosphere for my son Simon’s 1st Birthday Party. He was all smiles throughout the entire party. The kids music chosen to be played fit in great with our party theme and decorations, with the most important song being ‘Old Macdonald’, Simon’s favorite! I was impressed with the selection of children’s music you had available, as I can’t imagine you have many requests for children’s music. The volume was just right as the guests were able to have a conversation while the music played. You kept everyone entertained throughout the party and the ‘Happy Birthday’ sing along was awesome. We thank you again for doing a great job and providing a fun party atmosphere for our family and friends celebrating Simon’s 1st Birthday
Thank you for bringing the music for our event. We had a successful raffle and 50/50 drawing. My guests said their music requests were played during the night. We appreciated the use of mics as there were many announcements made through the evening. Thank you for successful event and we will keep you in mind for the future.
We connected to Brad Schroeder’s Service through a random internet search – What a find! We needed a quality DJ for our 50th Wedding Anniversary. Brad responded within 24 hours to answer questions and provide dates of availability. He was very open about his contract and adhered to what we’d agreed upon – NO surprises. Prior to the event he provided music lists to trigger our thoughts on types of music and artists that we might want to include. He also wanted to know the program for the evening so he could match the types and “mood” of the music appropriately. And just prior to the event, he wanted to meet us to build the relationship for a successful event. In the course of that meeting it was also apparent that Brad not only knew his music but had deep knowledge of the artists and the trivia surrounding the music eras. Moreover, he had our values and wanted to keep it “clean.” These were early clues that we’d made the right choice with Brad. The night of the event, Brad was set up and ready to go when the first guest arrived. And he kept the music with the right “tone” and also helped keep us on track and on time. When the formal portion of the program was completed, Brad really shined. He kept the energy level up, engaged our guests in dancing, sing-a-longs, trivia and funny commentary. Our guests loved him. You only get one shot at a 50th anniversary, and Brad definitely helped make ours a rousing success. We heartily endorse Brad Schroeder’s DJ Service for your special occasion.
I consider the graduation party a success for my daughter! You made all the announcements considering the food and cake and let everyone know about the food status during the night. Also, I was told of the requests you played during the night and some country music for my daughter. You played great music and we appreciated the volume level. The music was at a level easy to enjoy but you were still able to talk over it during the evening and while she was getting pictures with all her guests. Thank you
I wanted to let you know we were happy with services provided for St. Agnes dance held on May 11th. You played all of the appropriate music for the kids and were still able to keep them happy.

We have used you many times over the years and will continue to use you going further in the future.
DJ Brad Schroeder was referred to me by my dear friend Yolanda. He was everything we hoped for. Brad was on time, friendly, and personable. He got his equipment set up quickly and immediately started playing nice background music. The up-lights that were set up around the room created a very soft lighting environment for the wedding and reception. His jovial banter during the “Shoe Game” was so funny and enjoyable to all. He made all announcements nicely and was a big help keeping the guests busy and entertained. He had a great lighting system set up during the dancing and was very professional throughout it all. Brad was dressed in a nice suit and we would certainly recommend him to others for their DJ needs. Thank you, Brad Schroeder, you made our grandson’s wedding so much better.

The DJ for your wedding reception has a lot of power to make or break the whole reception. The DJ sets the tone for everyone attending, and that is why Brad was a great pick for us. Brad met with us twice to make sure that he knew exactly what our wants were before the wedding. The day of the wedding, Brad showed up and set up in a very timely manner, and he was even able to accommodate a last minute request for a live music performance. Throughout the entire reception Brad played the music that we had chosen and songs that our guests requested. He was well spoken on the microphone and helped everything run very smoothly. He also dressed the part, wearing a suit for the occasion. The song selection and order were nothing short of perfect. Once we invited people to begin dancing, the floor was never empty.

His prices are reasonable and the company provides many services including up-lighting in the reception hall, wireless microphones and a projector screen. The music he played was exactly what we wanted to get people on the dance floor - it was packed all night! He even stayed an hour later than we initially planned because everyone wanted to keep dancing! I got many compliments from friends and family members about how great our DJ was. I HIGHLY recommend Schroeder's DJ Service! :) - Liz Foster, Springfield IL
We had the pleasure of having Brad as our wedding DJ almost 22 years ago. He did a great job and was very thorough, professional, and very helpful with making our decisions. I've also been to other wedding receptions and parties that Brad has been the DJ and he did an awesome job! He is very entertaining and helps with the flow of the reception. I would highly recommend him for any event or function.
I would like to thank Brad Schroeder with Schroeder’s D.J.’s Service for providing entertainment for my sons wedding on July 27th 2014. Larry was our D.J., my son is a IOF combat vet, along with a lot of his friends, there was much focus on honoring the military and Larry did a wonderful job with that. They provided a video projector and screen and it was the hit of the evening, with it focusing on the wedding day and family pictures. I would highly recommend Larry and Schroeder’s DJ. Service for any receptions and party’s that you may have in the future.
We have used Schroeder's DJ Service off and on throughout the years. At our wedding they hit all the marks on time and got the crowd's attention. They helped everything run like clockwork and got our guests out on the dance floor until the reception ended. We recently booked Schroeder's for a fundraiser and they made the entire day feel positive and like a party: just what we'd hoped for. They always dress appropriately and respect our direction of how we'd like everything to go. Book these guys! They are fantastic! Jim Nelson
I would highly recommend SchroedersDJService for any wedding or party. I attended a wedding reception in July and was very impressed with the quality of music and entertainment that Brad Schroeder provided. Very professional and well done. Thanks Brad
Best DJ and karaoke service around. Excellent ability to entertain and keep everyone involved! I would highly recommend Schroeder's DJ service for any event!!
Brad was very personable and helpful during both the planning of my wedding and the event itself. He recommended a great caterer and hotel for the honeymoon. He did all that my husband and I asked him to plus he gave ideas that made the day even better than we could have wanted. I would recommend his service to anyone getting married.
We wanted to thank Schroeder’s Dj Service for providing entertainment at our wedding reception on June 14. Nathan Follin was the DJ for our wedding ceremony and reception. He did a great job at both and the sound levels were perfect. People of all ages danced through the night. The announcements were made in a timely manner and we were very happy with the services provided during the evening. We would recommend Schroeder’s DJ Service for other events.
Brad did two of my sons weddings within 6 months and did an outstanding job. He was a little cheaper than others and the product could not have been better. Everyone was quite happy! He is prompt, prepared, professional, and fun to work with.
Brad was the DJ at my daughter's wedding reception on May 17, 2014. He did an excellent job, was very personable and accomodated our special requests. I highly recommend Brad!
Brad recently DJ'd my son's wedding and he did an excellent job, both with the music and the overall MCing. He was responsible for the music for the wedding as well as the music for the reception, and he did this with great professionalism. Brad is also very personable and draws the entire audience into the event. I would definitely highly recommend Schroeder's DJ Service!
We had our reception at Hamilton's in Jacksonville, IL, which Brad has been to many of times, and I had read a review from Hamilton's saying he did a good job. After meeting Brad, and using him as our DJ, he is a really good guy and very personable. Very professional and comes in a suit and tie at the reception. He kept the night flowing and everyone was dancing from start to finish. I would recommend him to anyone!!
Brad Schroeder's DJ Service is absolutely top notch! I am glad we chose his service for our wedding reception. Brad did an excellent job with keeping everyone entertained on the dance floor throughout the entire night. There were times when some people thought they were ready to go home for the night but just had to hear what Brad would play next and stayed much, much longer. It is not too often I see many different generations dancing, singing, and having fun together at a reception. I couldn't imagine having anyone else as our DJ. Our reception was absolutely perfect! Brad was very professional and easy to work with. Thank you for everything!
Brad personally DJ'd our wedding and I have nothing but rave reviews for him. He has a well organized way of gathering song information and preferences. he was easy to contact and update information. His price(s) are reasonable and competitive. When I realized the venue was not providing the projector for the video/slideshow, I panicked. Brad offered his and provided it within 15 minutes! His assistant had to drive to retrieve it. Because it was emergently needed and there were other venue issues, he generously offered this without additional charge. The sound system worked well, he had every song requested and did a fantastic job transitioning from one thing to the next (introductions, toasts, dances, garter/bouquet...etc). Without hesitation, I recommend him and his services for a wedding or any event!
Brad did a great job as dj for our elementary "sock hop" dance. His music was age appropriate and he really "clicked" with our kids. We would highly recommend him for any event!
Brad and his staff have provided professional, high quality entertainment for our fundraising events for more than 10 years. They are easy to work with. We recommend them for any type of event- Big Brothers Big Sisters of the IL Capital Region
... And now a word from the owner,I have owned Schroeder's DJ service for 29 years. We were recently voted best DJ service by the local newspaper the State Journal Register. I would like to remind you that my job is unique in comparison to other jobs. We provide a service where things can be influenced by external factors such as, alcohol consumption, family issues and differences in musical taste. I would ask that you keep this in mind when you are reading any review of a DJ service. I am not a one man operation and have different rate packages for myself and the staff of my service. We always meet with the couples at least twice before the big day. We look forward to being your service provider for all your music needs.
We hired Brad after searching for local area DJ'S and found him to be affordable unlike the others we noticed on line.He was on time and wearing a suit which we appreciated.Had people dancing all night and took requests and provided up lighting and a projector.My husband and I would highly recommend him for your big day!
Brad and Larry were very professional. They kept us on schedule, and made sure we were coordinated well at the reception. All of our requests were honored, and it was a wonderful evening. Thanks guys.
