Very kind, followed instructions, even took pictures. Thank you Melodyan
She was great and heard everything I and my husband wanted. It felt like it was meant to happen the way it did. Mel was amazing at guiding us and it felt made for us in every way. She was flexible with planning and worked so well with the wedding planning, making it super easy for us. Thank you Mel.

A wedding is your day, meant to be the most special and magical moment of your life. Yet, as you look around, most ceremonies feel repetitive—using the same language, the same vows, and the same tired scripts. None of that feels like you.
I am here to change that narrative. I specialize in custom wedding designs where the ceremony is shaped entirely around who you are, rather than a rigid liturgy or a canned legal requirement. Whether you need help writing meaningful vows that authentically reflect your personality, or you want a custom-crafted ceremony script that shows your guests exactly what makes your relationship unique, I am here to guide you. I also offer premarital counseling to help you build a strong, lasting foundation for your marriage.
I believe your ceremony should be a celebration of your specific love story, regardless of background. I am deeply committed to serving LGBTQ+ and interfaith couples who deserve more than just "tolerance." I see you, I hear you, and I celebrate you. I work closely with you to create an inclusive, meaningful, and heartfelt ceremony that honors your identity and your future together. Let’s move beyond the traditional and create a ceremony that is as bold and beautiful as your love.

- Melodyan SmithOfficiantWith 25 years of experience in the wedding industry, I specialize in crafting deeply personal, memorable ceremonies that truly reflect your unique journey together. Whether you already have a crystal-clear vision or need creative guidance to research and build a custom theme from scratch, I am dedicated to making your ceremony an unforgettable centerpiece for both you and your guests. As a published poet, I bring a deep love for language, narrative, and artistry to every script I write. I work closely with you to craft custom vows, meaningful readings, and a cohesive flow that resonates emotionally—while keeping the atmosphere grounded, joyful, and filled with a warm, light sense of humor (because a little laughter makes the sweet moments even sweeter!). Supported by my assistant, Wil, who keeps our backend logistics seamless and infuses fresh, modern ideas into traditional frameworks, I ensure every detail is handled with precision so you can relax and be fully present. Beyond officiating, I am a proud wife of 27 years and a mother to three grown children. Drawing from my own long marriage, I bring genuine warmth, stability, and enthusiasm to every couple I serve. Whether your style is traditional, contemporary, or delightfully unconventional, I would be honored to help you celebrate your special day!
