My parents, who are in roughly the same age/investment level just switched over to Vanguard from Edward Jones, and it was a painless process. I don't know much about Schwab, but Edward Jones was a nightmare of worthless expenses.
If you move to Vanguard, you'll get a person assigned to you because of your investment level for personalized advice. My parents just did some reading for themselves, and focused on investing in the lowest expense ratio funds, as well as having some inflation-proofing in there. It was a seamless, easy process. FWIW, because they are withdrawing some of it currently, they did:
50% Vanguard Total Stock Market Index Fund
25% Vanguard REIT Index Fund
25% Vanguard Total Bond Index Fund
We also have everything at Vanguard as well and are very happy.
