About me

Welcome to Rev. Will

My name is Reverend Dr. C. William Mercer, many call me “Reverend Will,” and I hope you will consider doing the same! Welcome to my website and thank you for visiting.

I am an ordained Christian Minister and perform wedding ceremonies and life ceremonies in New York City, Central Park, on Long Island, and throughout the state of New York and tri-state area (New Jersey, Connecticut).

Are you getting married in New York City and looking for a wedding officiant?

Are you thinking about a Central Park wedding?

Or maybe you are getting married on Long Island at one of its famous venues, Westbury Manor, or Oheka Castle.

As your Wedding Officiant, or Wedding Minister, whichever you prefer, I can help you and guide you through one of the most important events of your life – your wedding ceremony. I work with couples from all types of different backgrounds, religions, cultures, and spiritual beliefs.

I know and respect how very meaningful your wedding ceremony is to you, as it should be, because your wedding ceremony or commitment ceremony sets the course for so much else that follows in life – it’s an incredible and unique life event.

How can I help you?

  • Are you in the early stages of planning your wedding ceremony?
  • Or maybe you’re looking for a wedding officiant at last minute?
  • Are you looking for a wedding ceremony that is different?

Something other than a “traditional” wedding ceremony, or something that might be a blend of traditional and yet still very personal and unique to you and your partner? Something that reflects who you are individually and also as a couple?

I honor all faiths and all people, and believe that any two people, who choose to dedicate their lives to one another in matrimony, or in spiritual union, deserve my complete respect and dedication in creating the most memorable ceremony possible.

Browse through my website to learn more about me and what I’ve done for other couples. Visit my personal blog. You’ll also find me on Facebook, drop by and become a friend! And then tell me more about your special day and how I can help you, check my availability, or learn more about my fees.

As a Wedding Officiant in New York, I offer traditional religious wedding ceremonies as well as purely Spiritual wedding ceremonies. I’ve worked with incredibly diverse and wonderful couples creating all types of wedding ceremonies, including:

  • Civil Wedding Ceremonies
  • Interfaith Wedding Ceremonies
  • Non-denominational Wedding Ceremonies
  • Buddhist Wedding Ceremonies
  • Christian Wedding Ceremonies
  • Hindu Wedding Ceremonies
  • Protestant Wedding Ceremonies
  • Roman Catholic Wedding Ceremonies
  • Islamic Wedding Ceremonies
  • Cross Cultural Wedding Ceremonies

… and purely Spiritual Wedding Ceremonies!

I also perform Gay Weddings and same-sex Spiritual Unions with the same love and attention that any other couple deserves and receives from me. In addition to weddings, I also have had the priviledge of performing ceremonies for:

  • Baptisms
  • Spiritual Dedications
  • Life Transition Ceremonies
  • Memorial Services and Funerals

I invite you to contact me with any questions you may have related to your New York area Wedding or Commitment Ceremony, other spiritual ceremonies, or the counseling and coaching services I offer.
