Charming Charleston Weddings By Rev Will

Rev Will was awesome. He responded quickly to our inquiry and when we discussed how we'd like our ceremony to go, he made suggestions that were perfect for our day. The ceremony was the perfect length and it was personal with our story on how we met. All of our guests commented on how nice the ceremony was! Highly recommend Rev Will if your looking for an officiant!

We liked Rev Will immediately when we met him! He put together a beautiful ceremony for us and all of our guests loved it too! He was very easy to work with and we would highly recommend him!

This guy was very convincing. He wrote our wedding vows in the course of a couple days, and was great with answering all of our questions while we facetimed before we hired and paid him. I felt really great about our decision on our officiant. Then... he stopped responding. We have emailed/ called him on multiple occasions. He does not answer emails and his voicemail is full. Does not make much sense because he has 5 star rating on the knot and 4.9 on wedding wire.

Rev Will was a highlight of our wedding. He gave our small ceremony the intimacy and meaning we wanted. We will forever be grateful to him for his loving words, his wisdom, his warmth and kindness.

We worked with Will Mercer for the first time and were very pleasantly impressed. Will seriously and responsibly approaches his duties; moreover, it is simply incredible how quickly he finds a common language with the bride and groom! He managed to create a comfortable, trusting atmosphere, so all photos turned out to be wonderful. And, most importantly, Carissa and Nick really liked all of them! Thanks, Will, for the opportunity to work with you!

Will officiated our wedding on 9/26/2015 and boy was our ceremony a hit. Our guests continue to comment on how unique and special our ceremony was and we have Reverend Will Mercer to thank for that. Not only was he professional throughout the whole process, but he made us feel as though we were loved, cared about and that our wedding was going to be as magical as we imagined. He was patient, as we made many changes to our ceremony and he took the time to speak with us numerous times, over the phone and email in regards to our expectations. We knew after our first meeting with Reverend Mercer that we were in great hands and September 26th proved it!

Rev. Will was great! He quickly responded to our inquiry, met with us to discuss our wedding and get to know us as a couple. He quickly responded to our email questions and was a great person to have celebrate our wedding ceremony. Our ceremony was short, sweet and personal! We highly recommend him!

My husband and I received so many compliments on how beautiful our wedding ceremony was - and it was all due to Rev. Will! From the start, Rev. Will was super responsive and when we met in person I was so happy that he truly seemed interested in getting to know us as a couple. He walked us through the whole processional and made recommendations because we really didn't know much about how it was supposed to work. He was really patient and we didn't feel rushed, which was a breath of fresh air compared to some other vendors you meet. He sent our ceremony script (along with suggested readings) way ahead of time and worked with us to tweak parts of it. He also encouraged us to include a story about our relationship, which made it more personal. During the ceremony, he read beautifully (loud and clear) and offered great marriage advice. Overall, he was professional, kind and caring. I would absolutely recommend him for your wedding ceremony.

Reverend Will really listened and tailored a beautiful wedding ceremony for us, which was perfect for the occasion, and very heartfelt! We received many compliments from family and friends about the ceremony, and Rev. Will's role in it. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for an officiant for their celebration.

My Wife and I won a sweepstakes and was given our dream wedding. Luckily Rev. Will was apart of our package. The ceremony he created was perfect. Once we read it we know that it was it. Did not have to change a thing. He was kind, understanding, and the best person for the job. We are so blessed to be afforded such an amazing opportunity as well as an amazing Reverend.

It was truly a pleasure to work with Reverend Will as our wedding officiant. He was easy to contact when we had questions leading up to the wedding, and he was knowledgeable about ceremony and vow options. On the day of our wedding, he was a calm presence, helping us to enjoy and appreciate the moment. I particularly liked his words about love at the end of the ceremony, which allowed us to have a moment to reflect before we were swept up by the rest of the evening. In addition to being an outstanding officiant, Rev. Will was kind enough to stay late after our ceremony because I had forgotten the marriage license. He was willing to wait for a friend of mine to retrieve it so that we were able to have it signed with witnesses that evening. He was understanding and flexible about the delay! Throughout the evening friends and family commented on how much they enjoyed the ceremony. They said that it felt very real and natural, and so they assumed that we had known Rev. Will longer than we in fact had. Everyone, including us, was incredibly impressed with his work!

We contacted Rev Will at relatively short notice yet despite this we were still able to to talk through our wishes for our wedding in good time, even going as far as to meet us in person. Following our initial meeting, he maintained regular contact to ensure he was preparing the ceremony as we wished, guiding us through the process clearly. The wedding day itself went off without a hitch, with Rev Will's calm and professional nature ensuring that we were comfortable and relaxed throughout. We highly recommend Rev Will and thank him again for his services.

From the very first meeting with Rev Will we knew he was the perfect officiant for our wedding. We had a lovely chat and were impressed with his professionalism. He provided guidance and together we came up with an outline for our ceremony that would please both my catholic parents and my husband's non-religious family. He sent us a detailed script almost immediately after signing the contract. He also gave us vendor recommendations and wedding planning advice. On the wedding day, he arrived early and provided us with beautiful Lenox unity candles. Despite delays, chaos and disorganization caused by lack of direction by the venue managers, Rev Will remained calm and put us all at ease. Once the ceremony began, all of the stress we were feeling earlier went away. It was a very beautiful ceremony and I received many compliments from our friends and family. I highly recommend Rev Will and can't thank him enough for making our wedding day so special.

Rev Will did such an amazing job on our ceremony. We live in Texas and found him online. Planning a wedding from another state can be stressful to say the least. However, Rev Will put our worries at ease. We were able to meet him a couple of months before, and he went above and beyond what was necessary. We thought we were just going to grab some coffee and discuss the details, but he spent over two hours with us showing us around Central Park helping us pick our perfect venue. If that wasn't enough, he brought us to several restaurants to give us suggestions for our reception dinner. It is without hesitation, that we recommend Rev Will. He will forever be apart of our special day! Thank you! Cindy and Lindsay

Rev. Will married my husband and I on September 20th, in a Catholic and Jewish interfaith ceremony. He was able to take both of our cultural needs and combine them into a seamless and beautiful ceremony. All of our guests commented on how perfect and beautiful our ceremony was, which we can not thank Rev Will for enough. The ceremony fit our personality perfectly, which made it very clear he doesn't treat the ceremony as cookie cutter. After our first meeting with him, it was clear he was the best Officient in NYC, and we are so happy we worked with him! - Sarah & Kyle Karrenbauer

I got married 2 weeks ago and Reverend Will was our officiant. My husband and I could not be happier with the ceremony bc of him!!!! We are both Catholic and decided to not get marry in a church but instead outside at our venue which was upsetting to our families and were searching for the perfect person to perform our ceremony and make us as well as our families happy. He did just that!!! He added a personal story about us too which everyone loved and we got so many compliments afterwards about how beautiful and perfect our ceremony was!!! If you are looking for an officiant look no further bc Reverend Will is extremely personable, sweet, professional and we just loved him and soo happy we used him for such an important moment in our lives!!!!

Rev Will was perfect. He met with us right away and worked with us quickly for our fast approaching wedding ceremony (we were married just three months after our engagement so everything was rush, rush!). My husband and I felt comfortable with him immediately. We loved hearing about his professional background and he just made sense to us. He asked all of the right questions and put us on the right track as far as what we needed to do and when we needed to do it. He wrote a beautiful ceremony for us and worked with our wedding coordinator to make sure everything for the ceremony went smoothly. We had a daytime wedding in DUMBO Brooklyn near Jane's Carousel and Rev Will had experience with weddings in the park so that really put our minds at ease as far as how it would all come together the day of. We loved having him marry us and we highly recommend him. Thank you Rev Will!!

My husband and I met Reverend Will Mercer on three separate occasions - interview, civil ceremony, and our wedding ceremony. We decided him as our officiant because he was highly recommended and we were comfortable with his personality. He was accommodating to our needs, such as working with us on location and time for our civil ceremony and rehearsal for wedding ceremony. Will also vetted out personal story and our personal vows; that was comforting to ensure that they flowed well during the ceremony. We are very happy to recommend Will for any of our friends' or family's wedding.

My husband is Catholic and I am not. We wanted a non-denominational ceremony and still include God. The ceremony Reverend Will came up for us was perfect. He certainly has a way with words and his presence is profoundly calming. We sort of had no idea what we wanted in the beginning, but he gave us options and direction. He asked us to send him a personal story for him to share. We had sent one of how we met. Two weeks before the wedding, my husband needed an open surgery for appendicitis. Up until a few days before our big day, I didn't even know if it was going to happen. I ended up asking Reverend Will to change the personal story to the one we were currently in. It fit in with the rest of the ceremony seamlessly. Rev. Will showed up right on time and spoke with some of the wedding party while I was still trying to figure out how to get into my dress. Then, we began our ceremony 20 minutes later than originally planned because our banquet manager suggested we wait for more to come. Reverend Will was very flexible and waited patiently with us. The ceremony turned out to be more beautiful than I ever imagined. It's notably obvious that Reverend Will has had a lot of experience officiating weddings and is very willing to work with any couple to exceed their expectations.

Reverend Will was everything we could have asked for and more as our wedding officiant. When we first met him he was thorough, professional and most of all he listened to what we were looking for in our wedding. Not enough could be said about his demeanor. Calm, confident and well spoken. He was gentle but confident in guiding the couple, the wedding party and the parents through the ceremony. We're very very happy and glad we chose to have reverend Will officiate our big day!

My partner and I were married by Rev Will on our terrace with a small group of close friends and our dogs. We first met him when he performed the marriage ceremony for our friends last year in Washington Square Park. He did a terrific job then and once again did not disappoint when he performed our ceremony. His good humor and thoughtful comments were the perfect approach for us, and we were both truly moved during the ceremony. I would recommend Rev Will without any hesitation whatsoever, he is a kind person who performs all variety of ceremonies making all who participate comfortable and relaxed. Thank you Reverend Will!

Rev. Will did an incredible job with our wedding ceremony. We both felt that it was easy to connect with him the first time we met; he put together a ceremony which was touching and personalized which everyone enjoyed. His personality brings calm confidence with just the right amount of light humor which put everyone at ease. He was extremely well organized and gave plenty of helpful advice for the ceremony arrangements, down to chair placement and musicians. We are so happy that we found Rev Will and highly recommend him!

Reverend Will Mercer, performed our wedding ceremony. While I was so nervous that most of was quite the blur, he was wonderful! Everything ran smoothly, the ceremony was concise and to the point. He did everything we asked. Our guests are still commenting on how much they liked him!

Reverend Will is the absolute best. He helped us to make the most unique, personal wedding ceremony that let our personalities shine through. He was extremely easy to work with; he met with us late at night to plan our ceremony, he responded to our questions immediately, and he was flexible with our adjustments and changes to the wedding day plans. Everyone has been raving about what an amazing ceremony we had and we owe so much of that to Reverend Will. He is fantastic. Thank you, Reverend Will, for making our day so unforgettable.

70 Days before our wedding, we decided to fire our priest. I got Reverend Will's name through another friend and contacted him immediately. His response time was fast, and we met with him a few days later. From the moment we met him, we knew he was our guy! He was friendly, FLEXIBLE, very organized and willing to do our ceremony the way WE wanted. After dealing with a priest for 4 months and seeing a strict, inflexible way of doing things, Reverend Will was a breath of fresh air! He came up with a unique and personalized ceremony for us, which he emailed to us a few days after our 1st meeting. He had great suggestions for different things we could do for our interfaith wedding, and wasn't offended if we opted not to do certain things. We had everything in writing and could tweak whatever we wanted. He was very laid back during the entire process, but at the same time, he was on top of everything. It was so nice knowing that we didn't have to worry about him or the ceremony, so that we could focus on the other aspects of wedding planning. What he gave us, was a ceremony that completely reflected my husband ( a Catholic) and myself ( not religious) perfectly. Both sides of our family were thrilled with how it turned out, and I received multiple compliments during the reception about how touching and sweet our ceremony was! I would highly recommend Reverend Will! He showed up early, was SO calm and organized, and did a great job! I'm so glad that our priest option didn't work out and that we were able to find Reverend Will! He was the perfect man for the job!

From our first meeting with Rev. Will in the local coffee shop to the conclusion of our ceremony, we found him to be professional and accepting of our input. Rev Will tailored our ceremony and his presentation to our wishes and did so while remaining genuine and enthusiastic. On the day of our wedding, we very much appreciated his early arrival and his ability to communicate clearly to all involved about timing and placement. Our ceremony was held in a historic chapel and Reverend Will seemed at ease in traditional robes while reading from the Book of Common Prayer. We expect our ceremony might have been more formal than a Central Park Ceremony and Reverend Will’s confident officiating added an elegant and authentic touch. We highly recommend him!

Rev. Will clearly officiates a lot of weddings. He was very responsive to emails and questions. He gives you samples of weddings to look over and see what you like or don't like. You can personalize it anyway you want too. He was just awesome! He came early to the venue to do a quick run through with the party

I would like to start by thanking Reverend Will for being our marriage officiant. Being a gay couple it is often hard to find people that will accept your lifestyle without judgement and Rev Will was exactly that. We always felt comfortable working with him and never once thought we were being judged. We live in Florida but due to FL not recognizing gay marriage we had to come to NYC in order to get married. We had a lot to accomplish in the 4 short days we had to prepare before the wedding and Rev Will was very accommodating of that schedule. He answered all of our annoying questions or even questions we had already asked before and even answered some questions we didnt know to ask all while guiding us in the right direction since we really had no clue what to do in some areas. We even got lost in Central Park on the way to the wedding location and he patiently waited in the cold until we were smart enough to figure out where we should be..lol. All in all we were more than 100% satisfied working with Rev Will and i would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a fun, informative, kind, listening and down right awesome marriage officiant! Please reach out to Rev Will and schedule him for your wedding.. trust me you wont be disappointed.

Rev W. Mercer was great to work with. He was very understanding, patient and had great ideas since hes been an officiant for a very long time. Our wedding day was perfect and he worked with us adding new things to incorporate to the ceremony days before. Rev Mercer is very friendly and easy to talk to...so don't hesitate to pick him to officiate your wedding. Estelvin & Jennifer Rodriguez March 07, 2014 Central Park

My husband and I chose to marry in New York - one of our favourite cities in the world - flying from Australia for our wedding day! Reverend Will's professionalism, sincerity and heartfelt words made our wedding ceremony a wonderful experience - such an important role in what was the most amazing day of our lives! Arranging our wedding from the other side of the world was not an easy task however despite the distance, Reverend Will guided us with his knowledgable recommendations and genuine warmth to make our wedding day truly perfect!

Rev. Will was extremely helpful in all aspects of planning our wedding day. From suggesting locations, recommendation of a photographer, and all the small details that are involved in a wedding, he quickly responded to any of our questions. He did a great job of understanding our personality as a couple and was very accommodating to suggestions on our vows for our big day. The day before our wedding NYC was hit with 8 inches of snow……but Rev. Will assured us that if our first choice of Central Park wasn’t possible then there were other options. However, our wedding day was bright and sunny, and Rev. Will conducted our service in central park with a beautiful blanket of snow as our backdrop…it was PERFECT! Thanks Rev. Will for helping to make our dream wedding a reality! Dan and Jeff

Rev. Will did a fantastic job officiating our wedding. He was super flexible and gave us exactly the ceremony we wanted; we chose how long (short) we wanted the ceremony to be, how religious (or not) we wanted it to feel, we even had a say in what he wore (robe, suit, shawl, etc) He seamlessly incorporated a last minute story change due to a bridesmaid's unexpected absence. He was professional, flexible, friendly, fun and made our day memorable but making it exactly how we wished it to be.

Rev Will did such a fantastic job with our ceremony. We are a mixed faith couple, so it was important to us to blend both Christian and Jewish traditions. He helped us create the perfect ceremony, and both sides of our family loved it. Rev Will is the best!

It was a pleasure working with Rev. Will and we're so glad we chose him to officiate our wedding. From our very first meeting, he made us feel well prepared and comfortable. Throughout the planning process he was flexible with scheduling meetings, attended our ceremony rehearsal, and showed up early on our wedding day. The ceremony was beautiful and it was all thanks to his guidance and professionalism. Thanks, Rev. Will!

Rev Will is simply said, one great person. We could not be more happier with everything from our initial contact until we kissed at the conclusion of our marriage. Rev Will rocks!

Thanks Rev Will for the perfect ceremony for our perfect day! It was truly special and we are so blessed to have your officiate.

Rev Will was amazing to work with! We are so happy we chose him to officiate our wedding. Throughout the whole process, he was always made himself available to answer our questions. He did a great job of understanding our personality as a couple and accommodated all our requests to make the most memorable ceremony! Our guests were overly impressed with his delivery and professionalism during our ceremony. We would highly recommend Rev Will if you are looking for an amazing officiant in the NYC area!

We are a couple from Sweden and we got married in Central Park, NYC in September 2013. We had a very simple ceremony and we were late in the planning. Actually, we've found Rev. Will by searching for our wedding destination. He was the only wedding officiant that we have been in contact with and it felt right from the first moment. The service that, Rev. Will has given us during the planning time was absolutely fantastic. He answered our questions promptly via email and took time to make suggestions and explain everything even over the phone. On the big day, finally, the ceremony was just as we have imagined: it was simple and intimate but sensual, with many beautiful and important words, personal aspects and a lot of emotions. We were both very touched of it. Rev. Will must be the best wedding officiant you could wish for. His warm personality, his competence and professionalism makes the finest moments of the wedding brighten and become a wonderful memory for life. We would like to thank Rev. Will for all that he has done for us from all of our hearts! Ervin & Eszter

Rev. Will was fantastic. He made himself available right up until the day before the wedding for changes to the ceremony. It was great to have such an experienced officiant for such a wonderful ceremony. He was prompt, professional, and communicative, everything that a couple could hope for on their wedding day.

Reverend Will was an amazing officiant for our wedding in the Conservatory Gardens. He was the first part of our wedding we booked, before the photographer and even before the site! Throughout the time between booking and the big day, Will stayed in consistent communication with us, responded promptly to our questions, and even met with us to get coffee when we were in town to go over everything in person. His laid back personality, combined with his responsiveness and attention to detail put us at ease and gave us one less thing to worry about while planning a destination wedding. He put together a beautiful ceremony, incorporated personal details with our input, and made every one of our guests and family members feel welcome and a part of the ceremony. We would recommend him to anyone in any type of wedding looking for a professional, fairly priced, attentive and organized officiant.

Rev Will served as our celebrant for our Central Park wedding on September 4th 2013. We received his details from a friend of a friend who has used his services and had glowing reviews. Organising a wedding in New York from Australia is no small task but it is certainly made easier when dealing with true professionals. From the initial email to our very first meeting on the day of our wedding things were perfect! Its the little things like promptly replying to emails and ensuring all questions regardless of how silly they may seem are answered, and we certainly found this to be the case with Rev Will. Even making changes to the ceremony a couple of days before the actual day didn't seem to phase him. Both my husband and I felt like we had known Rev Will for years. The ceremony was beautiful and he even suggested the PERFECT spot to get married in Central Park. We would highly recommend him!! Thanks Rev Will!!

My venue recommended Rev Will and I could not have been more blessed to have him officiate our wedding. Family and Friends say they felt true love during the ceremony but I know that if Rev Will wasn't a part of our ceremony it would not have been the same. Our ceremony was quick, simple and too the point! Just what I wanted!!! Thank you Thank you Thank you!!!!

After doing our research and meeting with a couple of different officiants, we knew that Reverend Will was right for us. He is such an approachable, friendly man, and we felt comfortable with him right away. He was also very organized, and he was really able to break down the wedding ceremony for us, so we knew just what to expect. He wrote a beautiful ceremony for us- to reflect our values and feelings. The wedding itself was wonderful- he leads with a comfortable voice, and set a tone that was the perfect balance of touching and light-hearted. We have had countless friends and family members comment on how great the ceremony and Reverend Will were. We are so grateful to Reverend Will, and so happy to recommend him to everyone!

I found Rev. Will online and contacted him. He responded fast and we started to plan. My now Husband and I both live in Texas and decided to have it in Rev Will's chapel. He talked us into having it by the Lake in Central Park, What a day. The weather was perfect. The service was just what we wanted. Rev Will couldn't have done a better job in making our day special for both of us. Talk to him. You will not be disappointed.

We spoke with Rev. Will about doing our wedding after realizing three and a half months before the wedding that we had significant philosophical differences with our original officiant. My husband and I are a heterosexual couple, but it was important to us to have an officiant who believed in marriage equality who was still religiously-based. Rev. Will was happy to work with us and was very flexible and knowledgable about our ceremony location (Central Park's Conservatory Garden). He even helped us stage the wedding (where we would stand, where our guests would stand, a rose ceremony for our mothers, etc.). He gave us a breakdown of the ceremony agenda so we knew exactly how the ceremony would go. He gave such clear instructions and details that, based on his directions, I was able to run a very smooth rehearsal with just myself and the wedding party and there were no surprises on the big day. He showed up early to the ceremony and interacted with our guests. My husband's Granny, who is very religious, really took to him and said he seemed extremely spiritual, which made her comfortable with him.

Reverend Will did my wedding last fall and I couldn't have been happier! He was flexible and easy to work with. He had great ideas for us but also was open to changing things around to fit our desires. He executed smoothly as well! Everyone said the ceremony was beautiful!

Our wedding day was perfect! The limousine brought us to 72nd and West Central Park. That's where we met Reverend Will Mercer in person for the first time. Up to then, we had been communicating via phone for several months. It was his idea to meet at this spot as we wanted a Central Park wedding. A quick shake of the hands and then we were walking to Oak Bridge (again his suggestion). My name is Patrick and along with me was my partner of 15 years, Ernie, my brother Scott and his partner of 20 years, Jason. Yes, it was soon to be a double wedding, which Reverend Will had orchestrated every step of the way. The walk was short and provided a moment for us all to reflect. We arrived at the bridge right at 11:00 am. on July 20, 2013. It was a very hot day and Rev. Will suggested moving into the shade and on to the bank of a beautiful pond. He had written a really sweet ceremony with details we had individually provided. We had the option to review beforehand but chose to wait and hear it for the first time on that day. We went first and then served as Best Men for Scott and Jason. It was perfect; filled with personal tidbits we had shared with Rev. Will. And then Scott and Jason's ceremony was completely unique and personal to them. I will always remember that moment and I will always be appreciative of everything Rev. Will did to make it over the top special. Thanks again Rev. Will!!!!!!

We had a very private wedding ceremony and Rev. Will really made it so special! Very professional, very personal and very touching..Us and all of our guests were so moved by his speech during the ceremony. If you decide to use Rev. Will's service - you will certainly be in good hands!

Rev Will is a joy to work with. He thoughtfully prepares a ceremony that really resonates with your relationship. He will make changes to the ceremony as you request until he gets it perfect, and he does it all in a calm manner that sets your mind at ease. He definitely knows what he is doing. Rev. Will had a trip to Russia before our ceremony, but based on our dealings with him before, I knew I had nothing to worry about in regards to our ceremony (he was also available by email should we have needed anything during this time). He was a perfect officiant.

We found Reverend Will through TheKnot.com and after hearing great things we set up a time to meet with him. He really took the time to get to know my husband and I and it was reflected in our ceremony. He's extremely sincere and professional. Throughout the day several family members and guests came up to me and commented on what a great job he did with our service. We would definitely recommend him to other couples looking for an officiant to complete their special day!! Thanks again Reverend Will! - Scott & Victoria Hoffman

Rev Will provided us with all that we could have wanted and more, he accommodated all our requests with patience and ease. He was a pleasure to work with and his extensive experience clearly showed. His style of conducting a ceremony was very appropriate and fitting. We are very glad that we found Rev Will as when watching some other officiants perform ceremonies on YouTube you can really see the difference and just how good Rev Will is in comparison. We didn’t realize just how important a good officiant is to the day, it really does make the ceremony. Thanks Rev. Will

Reverend Will officiated our wedding in New York at Giando on the Water. Living in South Florida we planned everything over the phone and by email. When meeting him on our wedding day for the first time we felt like we had known him for years. From our first phone conversation six months prior up until the day of our wedding he was professional, kind, knowledgeable, easy going and compassionate. Attentive to every phone call and email. My groom and I had recently lost his Dad who we both were very close with. Rev Will customized our ceremony so that we could honor our Father's but yet keep our service upbeat, fun and loving. His delivery kept all of us at ease. Our guest even broke into laughter at times. Our family and friends have complimented on how touching our ceremony was. We could not be happier with Reverend Will's involvement in our Wedding Day and highly recommend him. And look forward to inviting him to renew our vows with us in 10 years!!!

Reverend Will officiated my wedding at The New York Botanical Garden over Memorial Day weekend. My husband and I do not have any formal religious affiliations and struggled with how to create a meaningful, spiritual ceremony without being a member of a congregation. Upon our first meeting with Reverend Will, we knew that he would be our first and only choice! Over the course of a few months, he patiently worked with us to craft a ceremony that was deeply personal and befitting to our spirit as a couple. Through this process, he was patient, kind, warm and generous with advice and guidance. And during he ceremony, he presence brought such a level of gravitas to the occassion. We received so many compliments on our ceremony from family and friends and we couldn't be happier with how it turned out. I highly recommend working with Reverend Will!

We found Reverend Will online, after careful consideration of the many good reviews he has received. We met with him shortly after, and we were surprised with his professionalism and expertise. This was our first (and only!) wedding, so he was very helpful with explaining the wedding process, as well as helping with many aspects of the marriage process. Wedding planning can be stressful, but we highly recommend Reverend Will, as he adds a high level of experience in the subject matter. Having him as your officiant will ease many of the tensions that will inevitably mount up as the day gets closer. He serves as a mentor throughout the whole process, from the legal/official aspects, to offering sound advice about any problems that may arise in the planning process. He is extremely professional and makes sure everything runs smoothly. He serves as a leader and another "planner" during the ceremony, as it can get hectic during the actual wedding day. He allows you to customize your wedding as you please, and we were extremely pleased with the way our ceremony turned out. Imagine how your ceremony should be in your head, and Reverend Will can very simply make it happen. His price may appear a bit on the expensive side, but regardless of your wedding budget, you definitely should not blow off the Officiant choice as a low priority. With the way he helped organize and bring so much order to this crazy process was more than worth his price. Highly recommended. In closing, our wedding turned out perfect, and we feel like 90% of the reason we had success was due to our choices for the Wedding Planning group, Photographer, and Officiant. Pick those well, and you can literally go on autopilot and ENJOY your wedding. Reverend Will was the perfect Officiant to round out our Team and we would recommend him for any wedding, especially a New York City wedding.

Rev. Will was extremely professional and invested in our wedding ceremony. He graciously stepped in at the last minute to perform our wedding ceremony...and not only that, was extremely flexible with our non-conventional format. We had many elements to work with and Rev. Will ensured that the ceremony would flow perfectly by coming up with ideas that were consistent with our overall vision. He was a complete pleasure to work with and will forever be part of our lives. I should add that there were several people who, without any prompting, went out of their way to comment on how impressed they were with Rev. Will. While Rev. Will may not be the least expensive, he is certainly within the range for officiants in NYC - and the experience was one that was worth what we paid for. Rev. Will was quite upfront and transparent with the pricing - also with any limitation or constraints in timing he had - quite refreshing! Bottom line: dependable, flexible and, most importantly, cared about making the ceremony a memorable one.
