Rev Mel was very kind in our initial FaceTime and extremely responsive via email any time I had a question as our wedding day approached. There was a traffic incident that caused him to be right on time which meant we started our ceremony about 15 minutes late. In the end it was lucky as had we started on time, a very loud train would have been going by and would have interrupted the ceremony. On a hot day out door wedding coupled with traffic drama Mel still came through for us and delivered the ceremony just as intended and the wedding ended up being just so beautiful and perfect! Things happen and I really appreciated him calling my MOH on the road to keep her informed. He’s very kind and energetic and genuinely seems to love what he does and that is why we chose him. He also brought fun ideas to the table for our ceremony which resulted in a special moment for our moms that neither of us would have thought up on our own. Thanks Mel!!!!

Reverend Mel did an amazing job on our ceremony. He made everyone feel warm and welcome and was easy to communicate with. As soon as we had our first meeting with him, we knew that Mel was the reverend for the job. Overall, we feel the Mel made the day that much more special for us, especially with his parting words of wisdom.

“Our camp fire wedding on the beach in Cannon Beach was more than we expected. Reverend Mel from our 1st consult and through the ceremony was flawless, warm and personable. He follow-uped ever so often to check on us before the wedding to see if he could assist in any way. In fact, we chose Cannon Beach rather than Seaside because it was more picturesque for photos and at his "to think about it" suggestion. We are so grateful to Rev. Mel. Thank you.” Amanda and Derek

From our first meeting we enjoyed Mel's company and suggestions, but the choices were always are. Gracious with our guests and professionally friendly. Amazingly made EVERYONE feel at ease on our busy and sometimes stressful day. God sent. He made our day more special. Seemed like family. We cannot recommend more. 10 stars out of 5 !

We're so glad we chose Rev. Mel. A nicer person can't be found. Even though our ceremony was a little late and Rev. Mel had an appointment he was going to be late for, he didn't make us feel like we were inconveniencing him. He delivered the ceremony in a professional and fun way. All of our guests kept telling us what a great job he did. I recommend him to anybody who is looking for a great officiant.

We knew Mel was right for us after our first meeting! He is so kind, and was willing to work with us every step of the way. He was very respectful towards us, as well as our guests. He is professional while being personable. We definitely recommend Rev. Mel!

I contacted Reverend Mel to perform a very last minute service for my fiance and I. Reverend Mel was very accommodating and made time for us as time was an issue. Although we didn't want or expect more than a few words, Reverend Mel provided us with a wonderful experience and a lifetime memory. Reverend Mel was a complete joy and we really appreciated his genuine desire to make our special moment truly memorable. I am glad that we selected Reverend Mel!

Mr. Mel was very kind and very helpful, and if you are looking for any minister for your wedding I recommend him 100% he takes his time to listen to you and what you want for your wedding! My wedding was a dream come true and I wouldn't have it any other way! Both me and my husband are very happy. He made our day He really cares about what you want for your wedding. He listens and gives wonderful ideas! We really want to thank you Mr. Mel from the bottom of our hearts! Chara and Derek Gorden.??

We ended up without an minister 4 days before our wedding. I contacted many officiants but none of them could or would accommodate a last minute wedding. Even though Mel had a wedding just an hour after ours, he performed our wedding beautifully and exactly the way that we wanted it to be. He never made us feel rushed and included some additional very nice gestures as a part of the ceremony. I would highly recommend him!!

Rev Mel was wonderful! He made things super easy, classy and fun. He had a connection to the guests and family of the Bride and Groom, unlike anything I've experienced.
