Introduction: Congratulations on your engagement! What an exciting time for you and for your families. There is no venue too big or too small. I have officiated many large and upscale wedding ceremonies and also many intimate settings at the beach and backyards. I am a former senior pastor of a non-denominational Christian Church. I believe in the God of the Bible and in His institution of marriage. I am not just another online wedding officiant but have much public speaking experience. I have been honored to officiate many weddings over the past 10 years.  Let's talk. Choosing an officiant is an important step. I would love to introduce myself and answer any questions that you may have. Pricing various based on the location of the venue, the size the audience and the amount of symbolizes that may be used during the ceremony. $350 to $650.

So so happy to have stumbled across Mel on Thumbtack. Through the whole process including the pandemic and a family loss Mel made sure to keep me sane and stayed responsive to my every need planning the ceremony to for our wedding. He answered all my questions and concerns and never went missing when I would message him. Which was huge considering the wedding technically took 2 yrs to plan. The day of the wedding he delivered my ceremony exactly as discussed and added some laughs and great advice for my husband and I. People asked how long we had been friends with him because of how personal and customized our ceremony was. He was never monotone and made the ceremony flow very nicely! My husband and I were very impressed with him! Definitely hire him if you want a genuine officiant who will deliver an awesome ceremony!

If you didn’t know, now you do. Mel is the best! Simply put, he’s the man. So easy to work with and super fun guy. The ceremony was exactly what we asked for and then some. He researched info for my husbands requests to do some traditional Jewish traditions and he did everything while performing it at a top notch level. Interfaith marriage without a hitch. He really is the best. Add in his knowledge, grace, impromptu and loving personality and you have a win win. Don’t delay. Hire Mel and have the best ceremony. Thank you Mel! One of our best decisions ever. ❤️
