Love the Reverend!

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.

Couldn' have asked for more Ten Stars

“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
