    Excellent!

    From the time I emailed, to the time of the ceremony, Deb was great. She communicated quickly and told us everything we needed to know. She was also very patient on our wedding day because my daughter was late and she (my daughter) was also our photographer. Her price was super reasonable, too! I would totally recommend!

    Deb gave us an amazing ceremony!

    We knew Deb was the one five minutes into our first meeting. She provided us with a guide of various ceremonies and ideas to help us design the perfect ceremony. She was fun, friendly, professional and made our day super special. You will not be disappointed!

    Wonderfully Flexible

    They will work with you 100% to make sure your ceremony is exactly how you envision it. They have many resources available to help you plan it all out, so you can do as little or as much as you want. Deb was very courteous and easy to get along with.

    Great experience!

    Rev. Deb O’Dell was great and I would recommend! We decided to use her for our wedding when she married my sister and brother in law.

    She is very organized and has a lot of different options and suggestions depending on what type of ceremony you’re looking for. The ceremony can be very customized to what you are looking for. We did a mix of traditional and religious and loved the end result.

    The day of the wedding she was on time and we loved our ceremony!

    Absolutely Amazing

    We are so thankful for Deb & John O'Del! They were amazing from rescheduling the wedding because of covid-19 shutdown, to the day of the new date, and everything in between. Contacting them was super easy I had many ways to do so via phone, facebook, and gmail (Very Responsive) and a Zoom meeting 3 or so days before the wedding. The day of the wedding John was very professional, dressed up in a very nice suit and tie, and his words flowed like butter. Every thing was very smooth and transitions throughout the wedding ceremony were flawless. After the wedding and as pictures were being taken John came down to say goodbye and took a few images with us and for that I am great full. Not only did we get everything we asked for, they made the whole process easy and for that we are blessed to have worked with them!
    Thank you Both for Everything!!! We would Recommend them 100%!

    Deb has been amazing!

    Getting married in the middle of a global pandemic has not been ideal, but Deb has been with us every step of the way and has been such a lifeline. Before we had made the final decision to cancel our original plans she was already reaching out to let us know that if we did she would be available to do private ceremonies, and she ended up driving significantly out of her way to do this for us so that we could keep our original wedding date! We can't wait for her to officiate our vow renewal/"original wedding" next year! Highly recommend!

    I would recommend Rev. Deb Over and Over

    Rev. Deb made planning our ceremony super easy. She was professional, personable, and made sure everything went as smoothly as possible. When issues with our wedding planner became apparent, Deb stepped into those shoes as well and made sure we had nothing to worry about on our big day. I would recommend her over and over. Our ceremony was beautiful and entirely 'us'. We had always wanted something more unique than traditional vows and Deb's planning packet made it so easy to pick each part of our ceremony without being overwhelming.

    Excellent!

    There is no other way to describe Reverend Deb and her husband John other than excellent! Very responsive to emails and flexible with our needs. Rev. John was an absolute pleasure to work with. He guided our rehearsal for us and held a beautiful ceremony. I loved every part of it! Very professional yet fun! Thank you both so much for the time you took to meet and work with Robby and I. We are forever grateful for you both! Will upload pictures soon!

    Our wedding ceremony on March 30th, 2019

    My husband and I were beyond happy with choosing Deb as our officiant. She was so personal and extremely easy to speak with. From beginning to end of planning up until the day of our wedding on March 30, 2019 she was so professional yet we felt like she was part of our family. She created our ceremony with pieces of what we had chosen and she did it so beautifully better than we could've expected. We shared some laughs and suprises during the ceremony which just made it that much better. We thank you Deb from the bottom of our hearts for making our day so special.

    Best ceremony ever,
    Mr. and Mrs. Osman

    Perfect in every way!

    Rev. Deb was amazing. She was able to perform our ceremony to our liking without any questions and on a weeks notice. We wanted short and sweet with our puppies and that was what we got. She made us feel comfortable and didn't mind our non-stop laughter. I would recommend her to everyone.

    Calming and flexible

    We worked with Deb. She was very calm and easy to work with. We did not want a traditional ceremony and she sent us all kinds of sample ceremonies and answered all of my questions. She helped us put together what we wanted to make us feel comfortable. On the day of our wedding, she rolled right along with all of our silliness and giggles. She was great and really helped us have a nice experience.

    Mrs. Deb was amazing. She’s very professional and has such positive energy. I knew I wanted her to do my wedding from the reviews, nothing but great things from all the reviews. Mrs. Deb is such a wonderful person and knows exactly how to make you feel relax on your special day. I highly recommend her to do your wedding. Much love to you Mrs. Deb from Mr and Mrs Tolbert

    Rev. Deb is amazing! We wanted something simple and she executed well! I called her, she gave us sample scripts to choose from, I selected bits and parts from her sample scripts, added a few of our our touches and tah-dah! She was very helpful and more than willing to do the script editing... but after I sent her what we chose, she pretty much read at the ceremony from the final script we provided (the first and only script we provided! Which was great!). She's very accommodating - we were early to the venue, but then realized we forgot something once we got there and had to turn around... which made us late. She was so understanding (and on your wedding day sometimes things happen, and she understands that- you will want flexibility). Rev. Deb makes things such a breeze and easy - we highly recommend her!

    Our experience with Reverend Deb and John O’Dell was wonderful. They were very responsive, guided us with tools to personalize our ceremony, and were genuinely interested in us as a couple. Our experience felt authentic and kind. Rev. John performed our ceremony. He was joyous and managed a very memorable and heartfelt ceremony.

    We are so happy Rev Deb performed our ceremony. She was professional, warm, and open-minded to customizing our ceremony however we wanted. She shared with us all different types of ceremony styles and "segments" of a wedding that we could pick and choose from and create into our own. The ceremony - including the vows my husband and I wrote for each other - was one of my top 3 favorites parts of the day!

    Rev Odell was phenominal with our requests for a short notice, very quick ceremony. It was freezing cold and she accomodated our request for an outdoor ceremony in a location that was private and sentimental to us. Would definitely recommend her to everyone we know who gets married!

    Despite not requesting her services until a short time before the ceremony, Deb was able to accommodate us and perform our ceremony on Thanksgiving day. She was quick to respond to our request on Thumbtack, emailed scripts to us right away and worked with us to prepare our personalized ceremony. She was prompt, punctual the day of our wedding, and added a touch of professionalism without being disruptive. I highly recommend Deb if you need an Officiant for your special day.

    I really enjoyed working with Rev Deb. It seemed like her goal was to make sure the ceremony was exactly as I wanted even if I didn't know what exactly I wanted. I was able to describe generally what kind of ceremony I would like and she gave me samples and examples of what it could be. We were able to choose from all the ideas and we narrowed down to pieces we liked. We were also able to add parts to the ceremony that were very personalized. I really like working with Rev Deb and would recommend her to anyone seeking someone who will listen to what you want and plan the ceremony around your individual wants and needs. Thank you Rev Deb.

    Rev O'Dell was wonderful! We live in NY state and wanted to get married near family. She was very helpful with information and helping us create our ceremony. We asked her to change the time of our wedding a few times due to changes in our families availability and she was so accommodating. We highly recommend her professional service. Thank you Rev. O'Dell for helping make our day even more special!

    Ded was amazing she saw us multiple times to make sure we had the ceremony we wanted. She had also helped us with our vows which helped me out so much. When it came to the wedding she did a beautiful job. She is very warm and kind and made everyone feel at ease ??

    She's absolutely a wonderful officiant. She's very kind and quick to respond! We had to change our ceremony time at the last minute due to a family emergency and she was very flexible and changed the time she was available for us. She's a wonderful officiant and I highly recommend you hire her!

    Rev. Debra O'Dell performed our service better then i could have imagined, i was nervous about everything going smoothly and her professionalism and laid back attitude put me at ease. We had someone arrive late and she waited patiently without making us feel pressured.
