Meet Brad
Brad is the dynamic force behind I Do Weddings, a premier wedding officiant service in the vibrant city of Milwaukee. At 40 years young, Brad is not your average officiant. Married to his amazing wife Genevieve, and with twin 8-year-old boys who share his love for hockey, Brad embodies a zest for life that really is infectious. When he’s not providing stellar services at ceremonies across the Midwest, you’ll find him in the sky flying his very own small aircraft. He recently was able to purchase his first plane, a beloved 1966 Piper Cherokee, that he now often uses to get himself to and from weddings in multiple nearby states. His outgoing personality and love for public speaking are evident in every ceremony he officiates, infusing each moment with warmth, charm, and genuine emotion.
Award Winning Talent
Brad's journey into officiating began how most officiants get into the business when a friend asked him to officiate their wedding. What started as a one-time favor quickly evolved into a long-lasting passion and calling. Brad discovered that he had a natural talent for storytelling and connecting with couples on a deep, personal level. As word spread of his engaging ceremonies and heartfelt approach from friends and acquaintances to strangers, more couples sought him out to officiate their special day seeking his unique approach. With over 12 years of experience and not one, but three prestigious Wisconsin Bride Best Of Awards for Best Officiant, Brad has solidified his reputation as a trusted and beloved officiant in the Milwaukee area and beyond.

He pours his heart into every special day, taking the time to craft a personalized, storytelling speech to not only keep his audience engaged, but to provide every couple with moments of joy, laughter, and an abundance of happy tears.
