Here is a long but incomplete list of venues where I have conducted weddings. As you'll notice, they range from the unpredictable (CompUSA) to the elite (Oheka Castle), and from the famous (Bethesda Fountain in Central Park) to the unusual (Yankee Stadium).

"Pastor Bill was great! He took the time to meet with us first, and customize our ceremony the way we wanted it. He was always there to give advice, and most importantly, make our most special day a little more special. We would highly recommend him for any couple." Alex & Julie
Pastor Bill, ... it was truly a memorable and wonderful day in Central Park for us. We cannot express how thankful to you we are for accommodating, and just for being you. Your demeanor and attitude seemed to complement everything perfectly, and we are thoroughly grateful. Michael and Susan
Dear Pastor Billl, Thank you so much for performing the beautiful ceremony at our wedding yesterday. You really have made us feel so comfortable and your words were so sincere. All of our guests loved the blessing of the hands, and we really did too. Thank you again, and we will be sure to send pictures very soon. Melissa and Kevin |
