Melodie performed our wedding on May 1, 2015. I cannot say enough about how helpful she was planning our ceremony and advising us on ways to make our day stress free and fun for both ourselves and our guests. From the moment we met to discuss our hopes we knew she was the right person for our wedding. Even some of our guests commented on how wonderful she was and one couple who are planning their wedding have asked us for her information because they want to use her after seeing the beautiful ceremony she created for us. You can’t go wrong with Shot-Gunn Weddings!

Melodie performed our ceremony on 10.11.14. She was great! She was willing to flexibly work with us on short notice (we booked her about 3 weeks before our wedding date). We wanted a non-religious ceremony and she accommodated us quite well. During the ceremony, her delivery was graceful and fluid and she had readings that were charming and to the point. She also had plenty of helpful tips for us that she had us practice during our rehearsal the week before the big day.

We would recommend Melodie for any couple looking for a personalized and fun ceremony.

My wife and I were looking a a fun, nice and not too old fashioned minister to marry us when we were introduced to her by some friends. We fell in love with her! She was by far the best minister we could have picked to marry us. She made us all laugh but also she personalized everything so it wasn’t just a traditional wedding which we enjoyed very much. I would recommend her to anyone young or older who is looking for an awesome minister Shot gunn weddings should be your choice!

If you’re planning a wedding in the southern California area an you’re in need of a minister, I highly recommend Melodie from Shot-Gunn Weddings. She’s definately not your traditional, run-of-the-mill officiant. She is a lot of fun and really enjoys her job and getting to know you as a couple. She will help you prepare your vows to fit your personalities, whether they be traditional, non-traditiional or a little of both. I highly recommend Melodie to all my clients.

I have attended two Shot-Gunn Weddings. The first one three years ago, then referred Melodie to a friend that got married in November. She has the right mix of professionalism, humor, calmness and puts people at ease with her easy going personality. I will continue to refer her to everyone I know.

If you want traditional or not so traditional or even something way off the normal track, Rev. Gunn of Shot-Gunn Weddings is you gal. She takes her time to get to know you as a person and plans your service around who you are. She has officiated at many of my friends wedding and even performed my daughter’s wedding on a cruise ship and then went on the cruise and celebrated the union. She is professional with a great sense of humor. You can’t go wrong using Rev. Gunn!!!

I have known Melodie for a few years now and when she told me that she decided to become an ordained minister, I was excited to hear about her new adventure! When my husband and I decided to marry in 2009, I knew exactly who I wanted to marry us and I do believe we were her first public ceremony!! Melodie was fantastic, funny and we felt at ease with her. She assisted us in the decision making on the kind of ceremony we wanted, light-hearted and simple. I would highly recommend Melodie if you are looking for a non-judgmental minister. She is definitely the fun Minister!

Melodie married my daughter and son-in-law and also had the connections to help them find a photographer. She is non-judgmental (my daughter had a male bridesmaid) and will customize your ceremony to give you whatever you want. If you’re looking for a non-denominational, non-judgmental minister, she’s the one.

Melodie performed the ceremony for my brother’s wedding last year. She did a great job. She was funny without being over the top; insightful without being preachy; friendly without being overbearing. I watched her get down on her knees to make the kids in the ceremony feel comfortable. I would highly recommend her.

When my little sister told me she was going to be married but an older gentleman she found online I knew I needed to step in. Mel’s name and number were given to me by a friend and I’m so grateful. Not only was my sister thrilled to not be married by a stick in the mud with no personality, but Mel has become a true friend. She stepped up just days before the wedding to make sure everything was in order and was truly happy for my sister and her husband. She doesn’t beat around the bush, tailored the vows to my sister and her husband, and when my nephew ran down the aisle to his parents halfway through the ceremony she didn’t falter and just rolled with the punches. I know that when it’s my turn to be married I’ll be calling up Mel and Shot-Gunn Weddings to share in my day too.

My husband and I were looking for someone who was non-judgemental to marry us. Even more important than that, we wanted them to be happy for us — not just doing a job. A mutual friend referred us to Melodie and we set an appointment to meet with her. From the beginning we both loved her attitude — she’s straightforward and enjoyable to be around as well. She tailored our vows (we had a mix of traditional and funny) to us and both of us loved them. I also appreciated that she kept on top of me when I was out-of-my-mind busy and would forget to get back to her with my answers to questions.
