Dear Brad: I would like to express my appreciation to you for serving as the DJ for my Inaugural Party the evening of January 10, 2011. My staff tells me that you were a pleasure to work with both prior to and after the event. Your ability to customize music to fit the crowd was great. People were dancing all evening. Everyone that I spoken with enjoyed themselves and had a great time. Thanks for helping make the Inauguration Day 2011 a memorable one. Sincerely, Jesse White Secretary of State
To Whom It May Concern:
I had the opportunity to work with Brad Schroeder of Schroeder’s DJ Service over the past six months as my only
daughter’s wedding reception was approaching. Brad provided us with excellent service from the moment we contracted
for his services, thru all of the pre-reception details, and continued with this excellent service until the last dance was over
on Saturday evening. Brad displayed an impeccable attention to detail, worked diligently with my daughter on song
selections, and portrayed a professional appearance. He did all of this with an incredible attitude, and acute awareness of
the wishes of the bride and groom before and during the reception. Brad was fully aware of the energy level of the guests
in attendance, and served expertly and professionally as the master of ceremonies and ensured that the reception schedule
was effectively implemented.
Brad’s skill in flawlessly serving as the DJ of the wedding reception was second to none and very much appreciated
by my family and I. The positive remarks that I heard from our friends and family about the reception and the atmosphere
were endless all evening, and I know that Brad played an integral role in making this happen. I am confident in
recommending Brad Schroeder’s DJ services to anyone who is considering utilizing Brad and his team for their important
event. I have no doubt that my daughter Susie’s wedding reception would not have been the success that it was without
Brad’s services.

Everyone had a great time and you played great music. I highly recommend you to anyone in need of a DJ for their special event.

Thanks so much! Bruce A. Beeman "I would like to thank the "RAYMAN" ( Ray) for the outstanding job he did at our daughter's wedding Friday night! He was EXCELLENT !

I think most people commented that the music never got too loud. At all times people could carry on conversations. Thank you again for your awesome job. I would definitely recommend your services again. Susan Postlewait - (Mother of the bride who has never hired a DJ before!)

Springfield, Illinois 62703 To whom it may concern: Korine and I would like to express our highest recommendation for DJ Brad Schroeder and his service. We have used Schroeder’s D.J. Service for the last eight years each summer in celebration of our children’s birthday. Brad’s performances have always been one of the highlights of the party. His music is entertaining, and engages all ages of the partygoers. He has the best music both current and classic. Brad contacts us early in the year to ensure that the date we desire is available. When the date arrives his staff is punctual, courteous and professional. Every party that we have hosted with Brad’s staff has been a hit. We would not hesitate to recommend Schroeder’s D.J. service to anyone. He has become a part of the VanFleet party action. His dependability is unrivaled and his service exemplary. We use his service frequently and look forward to continuing to doing so. Sincerely, Tim and Korine Van Fleet Ray and Brad, Thank you both very much for making our wedding a success. Ray did an excellent job of keeping the party going. We really appreciate it and will recommend you in the future. Thank you, Graham and Cyndi Utter
Hello Brad, I just wanted to land you a note and thank you for your DJ services. Ray was Awesome!! He performed wonderfully and Mary and I were more than pleased with him. I will be recommending him and your service to future friends and family. He was very professional and ran things wonderfully. Thanks again to yourself and especially Ray. Daniel Bonn
Brad Schroeder has handled the music function of our annual $10,000 Valentine's dance for the past 6-7 years. This is our Knights of Columbus biggest yearly fund raiser. Over the years we have raised over $35,000 which we have put back into our church and community. This is very important to us. We have approximately 300 people in attendance each year and they range in age from 21 thru 75. Brad has done a great job of being able to pull together a diverse group of music that keeps the entire crowd entertained thru the entire evening. His contribution to our dance has made it that much more entertaining and profitable. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a complete music experience at any function.

Auburn, Il Dear Brad,
I wish to thank you for the excellent DJ service you provided for my daughters wedding and reception.
We very much appreciated your dual setup and operation of your sound equipment to accommodate both the outdoor wedding and the indoor reception. The song selection advice you offered at the prewedding meetings was 'right on' as confirmed by the crowded dance floor throughout the entire evening. You exhibited impeccable professionalism in conducting Master of Ceremony duties and in your interaction with the wedding party and the guests. Honestly, we could not have been more pleased. I've always heard that an excellent DJ can make for an excellent reception. You fit that bill!
Thank you again,
Bernadette Emery To Whom It May Concern: I would recommend Brad Schroeder of Schroeder’s DJ Service for entertainment at any event you may plan. I have found Brad personable, professional and knowledgeable in the entertainment field. I first engaged Brad to provide entertainment at our neighborhood picnic at Cobblestone Estates Homeowners Association in Springfield, IL. His company has been an annual booking for his event over the past ten years. I was so impressed with his performance, I personally retained his services in 2008 and 2009 at the wedding reception of both my daughters. Sincerely Andrew Hamilton To Whom It May Concern: We would like to extend a big thank you to Brad Schroeder and his staff at Schroeder's DJ Service for providing excellent service at both our wedding and our reception. From the first time Brad and I met to discuss our event until the event date he was extremely courteous and helpful. Our reception was wonderful and Brad and his staff were not only professional but quite enjoyable to work with. Brad's relaxed yet very detail oriented approach will help ensure the highest success to any event. After meeting Brad we feel as if we have made a new friend. We could not have asked for better service and I would highly recommend Schroeder's DJ Service to DJ any event you may have.
Becky & John Norris Brad, Thank you so much for being the DJ at my sweet 16 birthday party in October. I am so grateful for all that you did that night, by playing music. You kept the party moving right along perfectly. You were a big part in making my party a sweet and memorable one. Thanks Again, Isabella To Whom It May Concern: I would like to say what a pleasure my husband and I had working with Vinnie. He was very accommodating to our needs and did a wonderful job from start to finish of the ceremony and the reception. We had people on the dance floor the entire reception. Everyone commented on what a blast they had dancing and signing along with the music he played. He was an awesome DJ and we could not have been happier with how he did. Thanks for everything Vinnie, you made our day that much better! Alaree and Chris Malone Brad,
My husband and I would like to thank you for the wonderful job you did at our wedding. You were amazing from the beginning, and you had total control over all of our guests entertainment. We heard so many wonderful things about our reception and we would like to thank you for taking part in that. Brad you are the best in town and we would recommend you to anyone for any type of event.
Thanks again,
Laurie and Skip Clayton
My wife and I had Schroeder’s DJ Service for our wedding reception several years ago and could not have been more pleased. Last year while planning my Daughters wedding she asked about Schroeder’s and after a call to Brad everything was set. The reception was a hit with guests of all ages and my daughter has thanked me many times for the evening of her life.
Thanks for the Truly Professional DJ Service
Sincerely
Bill Cripe Thank you for your excellent service and helping to make our picnic a success at Cobblestone. Robert did a great job in keeping everyone entertained the evening of the party. Susan For our recent wedding reception, we chose Schroeder’s DJ Service to provide the music and slide show. Brad Schroeder met with us on multiple occasions to go through the evening’s agenda and get an overview of our specific needs regarding introductions, music choices and audio visual equipment. In addition to all of the sound equipment, Brad was able to provide a high quality DVD projector for our photo slideshow. We are very pleased with the service and quality of both the video and sound presentation and would highly recommend Brad Schroeder and Schroeder’s DJ Service for anyone needing music entertainment for any occasion. Bethany & Brian Caton The Auburn Junior Women’s Club recently had Brad Schroeder’s D.J. Service for a Father/Daughter Dance. Brad was very professional, arriving early to set up, informative, suggesting ways to improve the dance and cooperative, giving the crowd what they wanted. There was a wide range of ages from kindergarten to 6th grade; Brad did a great job keeping the dance moving and playing music all the girls and fathers enjoyed. We will be using his service for our next dance and would highly recommend Brad Schroeder’s D.J. Service for any event. Sincerely, Tammy Boesdorfer Auburn Junior Women’s Club Ray did a great job at our party after we renewed our vows. He was very professional and was able to get a lot of participation from our group. He started the karaoke of the evening by doing a song himself and encouraged everyone all evening to try it themselves. Several people who had never done karaoke before tried it and had a great time. He kept our party moving even when the group seemed to slow down and not participate. Everyone got so involved in the music and the karaoke that the end of the evening came too quickly for all of us. I will recommend your company and Ray as an individual to anyone who needs a DJ service for any occasion. Craig & Karen Lynch Like most newly engaged couples, we made a list of all the services we needed for our wedding/reception. After picking a date and location for our wedding/reception, we both agreed that picking a great DJ should top our to-do list. We have seen Brad in action before and we have seen his competition, and we know nothing can ruin a wedding reception more than a bad DJ. Brad was an easy decision, and looking back, he was a big part of the success of our reception. I gave him some special and goofy requests for our wedding party. He came through for us. He was very prepared, very professional and very accommodating. I think the thing I liked best about Brad is that he took the time to learn what type of crowd he was dealing with and he adapted to what our guests wanted to hear. With that, he was able to keep people on the dance floor and the party going until last call. Great job Brad and thanks for all your help! Jim and Alyssa Patton Brad, I just wanted to thank you and Ray for doing such a wonderful job for our wedding. Ray was a pleasure to work with and even went out of his way to help us with a stereo system for the earlier part of the day. He was well dressed and did a good job of mixing up the Indian and American music throughout the night. He did a great job and we will definitely refer our friends and family to you guys. Thanks again! Sumeet and Katie We were so happy to have Brad Schroeder as the DJ for our wedding reception. We were married in Las Vegas and had our reception after we got back to Springfield. We wanted to share the video of our ceremony with our guest. Not only did Brad provide us with a projector, he also helped us decide the best time to show the video. Brad had great suggestions for the music and put together a fine play list of songs. It created the perfect ambiance we were looking for. Having him as the DJ was wonderful because his experience and professionalism gave one less thing to worry about on such a big day. Chad and Ellena Rickman I want to thank you for the very
professional way you performed your "DJ" services and the valuable advice and
council you provided during the pre-wedding planning days of our Daughter
Kendra's wedding. The music, speaker arrangements , sound and tempo of delivery
was impeccable. I also want to thank you for the excellent way in which you
performed as "Master of Ceremony" taking great care with the announcements and
keeping the reception on track and on schedule. I also want you to know that we
received dozens of unsolicited comments from our guest about the music...not to
loud, not to low, and these comments came from both the "young crowd and the
older crowd" as well! I will be more than happy to recommend your quality
of service to anyone needing a reference.
Darrell and Carolyn
Beckett Just wanted to drop a quick note to say thank you for your service at our wedding last month. Ray did an excellent job of making the evening very special for us and played the perfect blend of music for our group. He was also very helpful at putting us at ease before our big dance which made it go perfect for Tanya and I. We will be sure to recommend your service to anyone we hear of that might be in need. Thank you very much, Mark & Tanya Reeves
I wanted to send a quick note thanking you for the great job you did at our daughters wedding reception New Year's Eve. Everyone had a great time and we were very pleased with your outstanding service. We had several couples say that was the first time in many years that they had stayed up and seen the New Year roll in! Greg Noll
I just wanted to take a moment to
thank you for the wonderful time we had at our 2006 Employee Christmas Party.
It was said that the party was one of the best parties they have had . So much
of that is a reflection on you and your music. You met with us before hand
to discuss what we wanted to play, showed the utmost professionalism. We
enjoyed it so much that you are already booked for the 2007 party. Again, thank
you for all you did to make our party successful.

I would like to take this
opportunity to tell you what a wonderful job Ray Olszewski did at our banquet.
He played a wonderful variety of music and had a great connection with the
crowd. He also fulfilled requests and had the dance floor
filled throughout the evening.
Mr. Olszewski has a natural ability to relate to people of all ages and was very
accommodating to all of our needs."
Thomas Stewart, President/ISBA
My husband and I would like to
thank Brad Schroeder for helping us make our wedding reception a great memory.
Brad knew just the right time to play the music we had selected. Every couple
has a certain atmosphere they would like to portray at their reception. And he
definitely helped us do that. Everyone seemed to have an awesome time and went
away with good memories. I have to say , we very much enjoyed working with
Brad. Though he was having fun himself, Brad was professional to the end.
Thanks again for helping us make our wedding day even more perfect.
Julie McCubbin
Schroeder's D.J. Service has been
the Educational Tours dance provider for a number of years. We bring many school
groups to Springfield annually and we utilize Brad's services about 30 nights a
year. I never have to worry about the kind of music that Brad uses with the
students. The students enjoy the lights that the DJs provided during the dance.
Mike Douglas, Educational Tours
Inc.
Dear Brad, Thank you for making
our party so much fun. Elly said it was the best night of her life. I danced the
entire time. The mix of music was perfect. Thanks for your personal service. I
hope to use you again in the future, and I'll certainly spread the word."
Kris Schoenberg
I wanted to write you a quick
email to thank you for the wonderful job you did at our daughter's wedding
reception. You were professional, but fun, and we had a ball! Many of our guests
have commented on how well you did our reception, and we look forward to
recommending you to family and friends. Thank you again!"
Lou Hester
I just had to let you know how
much the ladies enjoyed themselves at the Illinois Chapter's of the Red Hat
Society 3rd Annual Convention Pajama Party. This was due to your expert service
as a disk jockey for the event. They had a BALL as was evident by the dance
floor being full from the very first tune you played to the very last. I have
never seen 435 ladies of so many varied ages have so much fun. Your extensive
selection of dance and karaoke tunes was impressive, you had something for
everyone.

Jason and I wanted to thank you for the music you provided at our wedding and reception on April 5, 2008 at the Hilton Garden Inn. We both think you did an awesome job at listening and providing the music we chose. We very much appreciate all you did that night. Thanks again for the memories and for making our wedding a truly special event.
Andrea & Jason Rench I would like to thank Brad Schroeder & all his staff. Brad has provided services for me for two events. The first was a company christmas party. It was a karaoke style event. My staff & I had a wonderful time. Brad was able to cover every type of music we wanted to hear & sing.
The other event he did for me was my daughter's wedding reception. I was very impressed by Brad's attention to detail. He met with my daughter several times before the ceremony to discuss a play list & how the evening should be planned out. Brad was a major contributing factor that helped make my daughter's reception run smoothly. From meeting the wedding party at the door & introducing them through the entire night's festivities. It was a fantastic evening.
Thank you again, Brad.
