About this vendor
Melanie Davis, Ph.D., is a secular officiant specializing in one-of-a-kind ceremonies that reflect your values, love, commitment, and personality. While I'm based in Boonton, NJ, I am available for wedding destinations near or far.
All couples are welcome, inclusive of all racial, cultural, and gender identities, orientations, and spiritual beliefs. Your ceremony can be as traditional, casual, or creative as you wish because you deserve a ceremony that creates memories you'll savor for the rest of your lives. Together, with your passion and my guidance, we can create a ceremony that beautifully represents your love story.
Besides officiating, I offer premarital counseling services to help bring you and your partner closer together before the big day. Through these sessions, you can work on communicating effectively and starting your marriage with a stronger bond. In addition, I can perform my services for elopements and will take care of all the paperwork so you can get the party started.

When it came to our wedding officiant, Melanie was the obvious choice to marry us. We worked together through Zoom to customize the ceremony to exactly what we wanted. We knew we w...
anted a non-denominational, modern ceremony with a hint of tradition but we weren't quite sure what that looked like. Melanie tailored the ceremony perfectly to our desires. She incorporated what we wrote about our parents' marriages in a thoughtful way. She also provided us with several options of more traditional but still unique readings for a family member. There were many tears shed from our friends and family. It was a huge wedding season for our friends and we were told it was one of the best, if not the best, ceremony of the wedding season. From start to finish, it was a personalized ceremony that perfectly reflected us as a couple. Two years later, friends and family still talk about how beautiful it was! Melanie truly helped our vision come to life.
