Melanie Caron-Vlasak, Licensed Officiant, and Owner

I became ordained in 2009 to perform my cousin’s wedding ceremony and instantly fell in love with the process. During the first part of 2010, I launched Tie The Knot Wedding Ceremonies. Little did I know that it would become such a fun and rewarding experience. I am extremely blessed to have a job that I love and grateful for my Tie The Knot Wedding Ceremonies team. The best part is that I get to call each of the team members my friends.

I am passionate about creating and performing ceremonies for my couples that honor their wishes and their relationship. As a mental health professional, in the area of social work, I draw upon my experience to help couples calm their nerves and settle in and enjoy the experience of getting married. Ask me about my famous Sea Turtle calming technique. I welcome the opportunity to meet with you and help you develop the vision you have for your wedding day.

Melanie made our ceremony very heartwarming

Melanie helped us throughout the planning process. She was very hands on and even gave us suggestions on how to make our celebration more meaningful. She also responded fast to emails and calls. You should definitely get her as your officiant ❤️

The most meaningful and beautiful customized wedding ceremony!

Grant was a wonderful officiant. Thorough, thoughtful and just genuinely a kind and warm person.
He really worked with our daughter and her fiancée to have the most meaningful and beautiful ceremony. Thank you our wedding planner, Janet at Pop the Cork Productions for finding Grant!

Enchanting Elopement

Oh my gosh—where do we even begin?! Not only were Melanie and Grant easy to find, easy to read and easy to book, both were also incredibly accommodating to our situation and needs. Melanie was more than willing to make our short timeline possible and she made the process for everything so relaxing for us.

The day of, we requested a last-minute tradition be added to our ceremony that honored my heritage, and she was so on board and happy to acquiesce! She made our elopement so memorable and we couldn’t say enough praise of both her and Grant, who so sweetly provided us with pictures from our special day.

Don’t think about it even a second longer…if you want your marriage starting off in the most loving of hands, call these two beautiful beings NOW! We are beyond glad that we did.
