Clergy On Call Rev. William Britton

urch originally but ultimately decided on an off-site ceremony. With that, came the difficulties of finding someone to marry us. After endless pages of new age options, finding Pastor Bill was a breathe of fresh air. He is one of the few around that checked all of our boxes - being able to bring in our catholic background without creating a stuffy ceremony. From the way we were able to customize our entire ceremony to how he listened to our wishes and asked the whys behind it- everything was exactly what we’d hoped for. Pro tip: ask him about the rough water! When asked what was our favorite part about our entire day, my husband and I both said the ceremony hands down. Pastor bill made it so special, so unique. Our vision was golden and romantic and from what I heard, there was not a dry eye in the house. 10/10 definitely recommend Also- he stepped out of the picture for the first kiss without being asked! Definitely a professional!

ter meeting with Pastor Bill we knew he was going to marry us. He made the whole process so seamless and stress free. We felt that our ceremony was custom to us and who we are while also being enjoyable and entertaining to our guests. We had so many guests at our wedding tell us it was the best ceremony they have ever been to and how almost everyone in the audience was tearing during the ceremony. We couldn’t have imagined using anyone but Pastor Bill for our day!!!

th, and love to a ceremony, but Pastor Bill did just that, and so much more. From the moment we met with Pastor Bill we were struck by his genuine and caring nature. He took the time to get to know us as a couple, our values, and our love story. This personal connection was evident in the beautiful words he spoke during our wedding ceremony. Pastor Bill managed to capture the essence of our relationship, and their heartfelt words left not a dry eye in the room.

They have an extraordinary gift for connecting with couples and conveying the depth of love and commitment.

We are forever grateful for the beautiful memories he helped us create. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

!

t was a pleasure working with you! I appreciate all of the steps you took to get to know my husband and I, which allowed you to personalize our ceremony to make it even that much more special. I highly recommend your services, and once again, thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

d tailored our ceremony as to exactly how we wanted it! We got so many compliments on how beautiful our ceremony was. I highly recommend Pastor Bill!

ay of, he was early (which is always nice so you do not have to stress about being on schedule) and was great during the ceremony. Five stars!!!

fficiant that be felt comfortable with but from our first phone call I knew he was going to be perfect. The day of the wedding came and Pastor Bill performed the most perfect ceremony. Everything he said was meaningful and real. There was humor, sentiment and a whole lot of love. I loved that pastor bill allowed customize the ceremony but also added his own touch when we asked him to say "what he would say at his own kids wedding." We HIGHLY recommend Pastor Bill to any couple,

ouple and to understand our vision for the ceremony. In a short time, we connected with him. His ceremony worksheet was also super helpful: we were able to plan out our ceremony based on all of his religious and non-religious suggestions for the welcome, vow exchanges, and readings! On the big day, his kind, sincere method of delivery had our friends and family smiling, laughing and crying at all the right moments. Everyone was engaged and excited, all thanks to the Pastor's excellent work. Pastor Bill was more than just our officiant, he was family for the day. We love Pastor Bill and would highly recommend him to everyone!

e comfortable with. The wedding venue made some suggestions but they were not the best fit. I came across Pastor Bill on The Knot. He met with the wedding couple and completely put them at ease with his faith and versatility. He really took the time to get to know them on a personal level. The ceremony was 100% "theirs" but also it was important to them to include aspects of faith respectful to their families and to them personally. Pastor Bill was able to do this perfectly, and we all appreciated that he added his own words of wisdom during the ceremony. Pastor Bill paid attention to detail in every aspect of fitting in with the venue's protocol's, the Dj's sound system, etc, which put me, the wedding planner, at ease. Thank you Pastor Bill!

and helpful the entire way. I really can’t say enough good things about him he really made us feel so comfortable. I would highly recommend him if you’re looking for an officiant. In fact, we are having our post quarantine reception in a few weeks and we are having Pastor Bill return for that ceremony. Thank you Pastor Bill for making our day so special!

d patient with the procedure of getting to know his couples. We appreciate the passion he has for his job and would gladly recommend him to any one who wants a special made ceremony. Thank you for being present to our big day and making us official Pastor Bill!

ceremony uniquely ours. He will work with you to give you exactly what you are looking for in a ceremony. We felt comfortable and happy to have him officiate at our special day.

d and made our wedding deeply personal having had only a couple of days to get up to speed with us. He was very sweet and personable and a pleasure to meet. We can’t recommend him enough!

for a super simple process online, Pastor Bill still kindly spent time to get to know us (I don't have the easiest to pronounce name) and made sure he understood our needs in advance. Thanks again for sharing our special day with us!

a comprehensive worksheet as a framework for your ceremony. However, Pastor Bill is very open and willing to help customize your wedding ceremony to fit your individual needs. Pastor Bill was always prompt in his replies and made the planning process so easy and effortless. Pastor Bill kindly guided us through our ceremony programing, even adding some suggestions to help enrich the ceremony. He has a very calm demeanor and gives excellent marital and relationship advice. On the day of our ceremony, Pastor Bill arrived early and was able to coordinate everything just as originally planned. He officiated a beautiful ceremony - a hybrid - traditional religious and less traditional components- just as we customized in our discussions. He is a true professional. We are so grateful to Pastor Bill and we would not have wanted anyone else to led us into our marriage! Thank you Pastor Bill.

e blended it all together perfectly. He walked us through the process and we can't be happier with the outcome. For us, it was really important to have someone marry us who understood faith and was a great public speaker. Pastor Bill did a fantastic job and would recommend him to any bride in search of someone to tie "the knot." Cheers!!

so memorable. It really was a wonderful and beautiful ceremony in Central Park!

ve, cooperative and kind. We had requested a non denominational ceremony that was both spiritual, uplifting with the ability to customize any part of the ceremony we felt was necessary pertaining to us. He even worked with our band in regards to organizing the music as well for the ceremony. We highly recommend Pastor Bill for anyone looking for a wonderful ceremony!

h a rabbi. I live in Connecticut, but was having my wedding in Long Island, so my availability was very limited. He was very good at communicating with my husband and I on the phone and over emails. He even met us at a diner with the rabbi when I came down to Long Island. Both he and the rabbi were very understanding of the others faith and were very professional and worked well together to make out dream wedding ceremony come true. My husband and I were able to fully personalize our wedding ceremony outline, but were given suggestions by Pastor Bill when asked. I would highly recommend Pastor Bill Britton! Everyone at my wedding said that having him co-officiate with the rabbi was a beautiful touch. It was a very lovely and elegant ceremony that everyone enjoyed. 5/5 stars. Thank you!

providing ceremony outlines etc. I am so happy and grateful that he was able to marry us.

eremony that was the perfect balance of spiritual, traditional, modern, and just plain ol' romantic. I've never heard of the rose ceremony or blessing of the hands before him, and they were everyone's favorite parts. Two months later we're still being told how beautiful and touching our ceremony was. On top of that, Pastor Bill himself has a calm presence and a 'conversational' way of speaking while keeping all attention on the couple. We knew exactly what he was going to say and weren't surprised by any bad jokes or personal anecdotes, which I've seen at a lot of other weddings (yikes!). Thank you, Pastor Bill!

meaning and love. The vows you had for us were on another level...if my husband had to repeat one more sentence he was about to start crying and I mean balling. They were beautifully written and you were just so incredible. Everyone stated how amazing our ceremony was and that’s all due to you. From the very start of our first email exchange I knew you were the right man for the job. You were great to work with and your worksheet just made things so so simple and the options you have to choose from are magnificent! I do sincerely apologize for the mic mishap and how it was cutting in and out but please take comfort in knowing everyone did hear you even when the mic was cutting out. It must have been nerve wracking on your end and I just want you to know I’m sorry that happened to you but you were calm and professional and kept it going. I appreciate everything you did for us .. thank you for making our day so special .. it simply could not have been that amazing and special without you. Anyone who is considering using Pastor Bill.. book him. Don’t hesitate he is truly amazing!! Thank you thank you. Yours very truly, Marlena and Craig Xoxo

ere able to incorporate aspects of my religion and a special nod to my grandparents all of which Pastor Bill executed amazingly. We received tons of compliments from family and friends about how beautiful the ceremony was and even had people asking for his information for their own weddings or children’s weddings. Thank you, Pastor Bill for making our ceremony so special!

he was awesome to customize the script. I recommend meeting him face to face, for the full experience! Everything else is email communication

er). Pastor Bill had great reviews, so I reached out to him to get some more information. He was friendly and responsive from the get-go which was very important to me considering our timeline. He sent us detailed ceremony worksheets and shortly after, we had a call to discuss the potential of having him perform our ceremony. He was friendly, funny, and professional. We then made our ceremony selections, gave a deposit, signed our contract and were married soon after. The day of, he showed up early and waited in his car so that we could finish taking pictures beforehand which I felt was very thoughtful. We have no regrets about choosing him and would do it again if given the chance.

e the whole process very comfortable and easy (which is extremely helpful when you have so many other things going on!). If you are looking for an officiant who will work with you to make your wedding the way you want it to be, he is your guy. He is very accommodating! We are so happy to have found him and have him share in our special day- which was a dream! Thank you Pastor Bill!

st importantly he made us feel very comfortable. Before our initial meeting he e-mailed us a very detailed ceremony worksheet which outlined all the ceremony details and his suggestions, it was our ceremony wish list! It made the process so easy and allowed us to ask him any questions about it when we met. On the day of our wedding our ceremony was absolutely perfect and it went exactly as planned, Pastor Bill added his personal touches which we got so many amazing compliments on. We highly recommend him and are so happy we had the honor to have him marry us. Thank you Pastor Bill!

more than that, short yet sentimentally sensational. Pastor Bill's strategy is completely organized and he allows couples like us to personalize every detail to fit our desires. I couldn't have asked for a better person to be there and seal the deal between Anthony and I. Pastor Bill is worth every penny. He is kind, friendly yet professional and witty! He kept in touch after our first meeting at a local diner which assured us that he was dedicated to meeting our needs. On the day of the ceremony he arrived early to go over the game plan which really eased our nerves. He really made our vision come to life! A million Thank You's wouldn't be enough!! We hope to see you at next year's celebration, Pastor Bill! Warmest regards, Deena & Anthony Vallone

utiful ceremony. It was short and sweet, exactly what we were looking for. Your personal touch was icing on the cake!

ceremony he called me by a completely wrong name multiple times and then he started saying things that we specifically said we did not want to be said. I was expecting much better considering his fee was pretty steep. Also I wasn't too crazy thay he waits last minute to ask if his wife can come to cocktail hour....I don't really see that as being professional or appropriate to ask. Overall, I was very dissatisfied and will not be recommending this officiant.

ke a church". We were very happy

iled email from him that includes every option for your ceremony you could think of. Plus tons of things you don't think of! We wanted something very untraditional but he can do it all. The ceremony was great. It kept everyone's full attention, was emotional and made them laugh at the same time. He was very accommodating. We got married in Long Island City, he was there early, was professional and just a pleasure to work with. We highly recommend a Pastor Bill for your ceremony.

to use. He was right on time for the ceremony and everything went very smoothly. He was also very quick with submitting the wedding information to the state, We got our wedding certificate very quickly. Overall We was very pleased with his service.

ur wedding ceremony to the exact way we wanted it! Coming from two different religious backgrounds, you made it welcoming for us to have everything we wanted (i.e.: Unity Candles, Breaking of the Glass... even signing our Marriage License in front of our guest!) and it all turned out flawless! You were well spoken and had a charismatic ease when presenting in front of our family and friends. Geoff and I, our parents/grandparents and guests all thought you did a terrific job. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!! You are the BEST! With MUCH appreciation! The Newlyweds Mr. & Mrs. Opland Married: 5/19/13

e every aspect so that our ceremony fit us as a couple! Pastor Bill provided the perfect amount of assistance. He was so helpful, but never overbearing and never pushed any of his beliefs into our ceremony like some other officiants may try to do. We are so happy that we chose Pastor Bill.

dering why the day of my wedding... When all of a sudden I saw Pastor Bill, my sisters got out of the car and started talking to him, I just couldn't do anything, I was shocked, then he approached the car where I was and he started talking to me trying to calm me down, very supportive saying that no matter what I was getting married that day, that I was going to have a story to tell in the future about the day of my wedding, John, today my husband, arrived with my Parents and he was talking to him, saying not to worry that the ceremony was going to happen fortunately Pastor Bill was able to wait until everybody was ready for the Ceremony, just the way Pastor Bill officiated the ceremony was incredibly Beautiful! I'm very thankful to Pastor Bill for his quick response, his tips and considerations and most of all to be part of our very special Day. John & Daniela.

officiants. The only one I connected with was Pastor Bill on the phone. I was waiting for an officiant to make me feel comfortable as I spoke with them on the telephone. He was warm, kind and personable over the phone and when I met him in person, he was exactly that. For me, an officiant is the most important part of your wedding, he/she is the one who marrys you. Pastor Bill felt like an old friend and I only met him for 15 minutes the day of my wedding. I definitely recommend him on your special day.

d definately recomend him to anyone getting married. :)

xperience. He even made some great suggestions with choosing our ceremony style. He was professional throughout the entire process. As promised, Pastor Bill showed up early for our ceremony and got to know our families. The ceremony itself went very smoothly. We couldn’t have been happier. We would definitely recommend Pastor Bill to our friends.

ere absolutely happy with his service! Thank you!!!!
