We didn't want something overly formal and stuffy but wanted the ceremony to have the gravitas that the occasion deserved. The ceremony that Brad composed and delivered felt personal and significant, but casual and fun at the same time.
Of all the difficult decisions and details to obsess over in planning a wedding, we never second guessed our choice of officiant and the day itself was as easy as anyone could ask for.

ip. The ceremony was just the right length too. He even held our vows in a folder for each of us to read, and most of the guests thought we were reciting them from memory. A fun touch.
Would definitely recommend Brad for your special day!
