Congratulations on your engagement! This is an exciting time for both you and your families. Whether you're planning a large or intimate ceremony, I am experienced in officiating weddings of all sizes, from upscale venues to backyard settings and the beach.
As a former senior pastor of a non-denomination Christian church, I have extensive public speaking experience and have had the honor of officiating many weddings over the past decade. Choosing an officiant is an important decision, and I would be happy to introduce myself and answer any questions you may have.
Pricing varies depending on the location of the venue, the size of the audience, and the use of symbols during the ceremony. My rates range from $350 to $650.
Let's talk and create a meaningful and memorable ceremony together.

Mel is the best! If you didn't already know, now you do. He is simply the man – great to work with and enormously fun. Our ceremony was nothing short of perfection, exactly what we wanted and more. Mel even went the extra mile by doing research to accommodate my husband's traditional Jewish requests, which he executed seamlessly and with utter professionalism. Our interfaith marriage went off without a hitch, thanks to Mel's knowledge, grace, impromptu skills, and loving personality. Hiring Mel is a guaranteed win-win. Don't wait any longer – book him for your ceremony. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, Mel – one of the best decisions we ever made! ❤️

I am thrilled to have come across Mel on CrackerJack and incredibly grateful for his support throughout the entire wedding planning process, which included navigating the challenges of the pandemic and the loss of a family member. Despite these obstacles, Mel remained responsive to my every need and ensured that my ceremony was everything I had hoped for. He was always available to answer my questions and address my concerns, never once disappearing during the two years it took to plan the wedding. On the big day, Mel delivered a ceremony that was both personal and customized, adding humor and providing great advice for my husband and me. Our guests were impressed by how well Mel knew us and assumed that we must have been friends for years. With his engaging delivery and smooth flow, Mel made our ceremony a truly memorable experience. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a genuine and talented officiant who will go above and beyond to make your special day unforgettable.
