Welcome to Melissa Coe Ceremonies
Celebrating Happily Ever Afters... Beautifully.
You’ve said, “I will!” But how will you say, “I do”? Hopefully, with all the personality, style and humor that makes you, well...you! I am a professional Wedding Officiant, Certified Celebrant and Interfaith Minister who believes that your wedding ceremony should be as unique and wonderful as you are. Certainly not boring and awkward or something everyone attending has heard at countless other weddings.
As a Certified Celebrant, I am a professionally educated and trained ceremony specialist who is skilled at blending traditions, symbolism and words into custom, personal and deeply meaningful ceremonies. You really can have the ceremony of your dreams without compromising your beliefs or style! In fact, your ceremony might very well be the first one your guests have ever listened to from start to finish- because no two Celebrant Ceremonies are ever the same.
I have the best job in the world! I get to help my couples start the rest of their Happily Ever Afters, exactly the way they want! I would be delighted to:
- Meet with you for a no obligation, complimentary interview to discuss your dream ceremony;
- Collaborate with you to learn the rituals, readings, symbols and music which most resonate with you and your beliefs;
- Consult with you until the ceremony is just right and exactly the way you want it;
- Rehearse the ceremony with you and your party at the location of your choice;
- Arrive one hour prior to the ceremony to make sure your ceremony runs smoothly according to your wishes with extra reference copies for your event professionals;
- Warmly and sincerely welcome your family and friends as the very important people they are and speak from the heart as I conduct your ceremony with professionalism and grace;
- Present you with a beautiful keepsake copy of your ceremony
Let's talk! Together we will create memories you and your guests will cherish and talk about for years to come!
"Melissa far exceeded our expectations! She took the time to get to know us and our story and created a ceremony that was both unique and perfect. She made the process of developing the ceremony and vows enjoyable. She is professional, genuine and an absolute pleasure. The ceremony was rich with love and laughter and conveyed our story exactly how we had hoped. We had numerous compliments from guests telling us it was the most emotional and heart-felt ceremony they had ever been to." - B & P
"Melissa Coe was a dream to work with. She helped us craft the most heartfelt, personal and beautiful ceremony that we are still hearing compliments about. I would recommend her to anyone. Working with Melissa was not like working with a 'wedding vendor', it was like working with a beloved Aunt or dear family friend. Our ceremony was so wonderful. It ended up being the most memorable and meaningful part of the wedding but was the most stress-free." - A & T
"She was our backbone at the site. She let the manager know we had a plan when the manager tried to get us to do things differently. She was willing to drive down 2 hours the night before our rehearsal without complaint and made our wedding more than we could have hoped for. We wanted something non-religious and something fun, a ceremony people would remember, and I know she made that happen. I could not have found a better person to fit into our vision." - S & C
