Rev. Deb O'Dell is a gem to our blessing in celebrating 44 years seamlessly with personal selected biblical scripture and prayer. Her service is top-notched in caring for her clients best interest in fulfilling your dreams come true, in saying "I Do". Deb has an excellent form to critique your once in a lifetime celebration. Excellent follow-up. Took photos shortly afterwards. We were threatened with storms for the day, but as always - God made away and saved the day! Thank you for being a part of this memorable celebration of life. Highly recommended for those in need.
Deb married my husband and I. The process was easy. She answered all my questions, she asked the right questions to determine exactly what we wanted. She was on time, professional, and the ceremony was absolutely beautiful! It fit us perfect! We are so happy with everything she did for us. I highly recommend her to officiate your ceremony.
Deb officiated our wedding and we were so pleased with her services. Our communication through email was prompt and helpful, and she accommodated our requests perfectly. She prepared a beautiful scripture based wedding ceremony for us according to our wishes. We are very happy with her and we plan on hiring her again for our wedding celebration party in the future.
Rev. Deb was wonderful to work with. She was very responsive and was able to accommodate us at the last minute! She made our small and last minute ceremony feel so personal and intimate.
Deb was amazing! We found her by searching for Dayton wedding officiant. She responded quickly, was professional, and easy to work with. If you are looking for a beautiful ceremony, please contact deb.
Reverend Deb was absolutely perfect for our ceremony. She was very professional but at the same time understood our laid back personalities. She was very thoughtful and caring. Would definitely recommend her for anyone.
Rev. Deb O'Dell worked with us on whatever we wanted to include or not include. The packet of samples she gave us to consider provided more than one that could have fit us, plus so many "alternative" selections. She omitted whatever we didn't want and squeezed in the custom extras we did want. She was on time, professional, and a joy to work with. I had more than one person come up to me after the ceremony and comment about how wonderful our vows were. Thank you so much Deb for making our day as unique as we are!
Deb was amazing. She made our day so special and helped keep everything organized. The wedding was perfect and she did her part to make that happen.
Thank you Deb!
Rev Deb is the best she performed a great ceremony made us laugh made a smile thank you for making my day special.
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
Deb is absolutely amazing. She was so great at our wedding!! We fell in love with her when first meeting her and knew we wanted her as our officiant. She was able to do the hand fasting ceremony and even had a packet for all the options of hand fasting! She made our wedding that much better! We will recommend her to anyone we told to!
My husband and I only met with one officiant before booking, and that was Rev. Deb O'Dell. In just one meeting she seemed to understand what we were looking for in our wedding ceremony and was so in depth about everything she does and the services she provides. She was very easy to get a hold of in the year before our wedding for any clarifications and questions. She did more than a phenomenal job at our wedding and we raved about her to everyone afterwards because she made our day so special. I couldn't imagine having our wedding with any other officiant!
My experience with Deb was awesome. She met with us to help determine the kind of ceremony we wanted. Everything was easy and perfect.
Very responsive and made the entire ceremony/vow process simple to put together. We had a beautiful wedding and the ceremony went smoothly! I would highly recommend!
Working with Deb was super easy. With my first marriage I spent hours pouring over wording to customize our ceremony, picking and choosing from here and there. This time, Deb had multiple sample ceremonies already put together and we just picked our favorite overall message. We were then able to tweak it here and there to fit our family. A few emails back and forth and it was done. Deb made all of the changes we asked for, then quickly sent back the updates. She was prompt, friendly and professional. She made sure the ceremony was what we about what we wanted to say and do.
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!
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.
Rev. Deb officiated our wedding and was wonderful to work with! I loved being able to customize our ceremony which made it more unique and personal. She kept our blended family of 5 on task and kept the ceremony flowing without being rushed in cold weather. I am happy we chose Deb!
Deb was so great to work with. She’s very great with communicating and was there every step of the way asking if we had questions or concerns. She worked with the DJ to make sure everything ran perfectly the day of. We also loved being able to customize our own ceremony. We’re so glad we went with her. We’re so grateful for everything! Thank you Deb!
Debra was wonderful to work with, she made everything very stress-free and memorable :)
Rev. Deb married my husband and I this past April (2017). She was exactly what we wanted. She helped us get our vows put together, but let them be whatever we wanted them to be. She was easy going, on time, and very friendly.
We were married 8/12/17, the ceremony was beautiful! Rev. O'dell did an amazing job and we got everything we could have asked for. We planned everything within a short time frame, but she took the time to really get to know us and worked to make sure we had many options to choose from. She was respectful of our wishes and we were 100% satisfied!!
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.
My husband and I were married on June 24th of this year and we chose Deb as our officiant and it was one of the best choices me made. She was very professional, knowledgeable, and helped us every step of the way. We were able to customize our ceremony to fit us and our personalities. I would HIGHLY recommend Deb for any wedding. She's fantastic!
Deb was great. She helped us alot. We had no idea where to start and Deb guided us. She found options for the ceremony we wanted and worked with us to put it together.
Deb helped us so much. We were a bit overwhelmed by all the info about wedding ceremonies on the web, Deb provided us with a packet that was incredibly helpful. We were able to piece together our perfect ceremony from the examples she provided. I can't adequately express how simple Reverend Deb made this for us, and it was a positively beautiful ceremony.
Deb officiated our wedding ceremony beautifully and helped us to write sincere and meaningful vows. During such an emotional time, she is a rock to guide you through the ceremony. Thank you, Deb, for helping to make our day so special!
Deb was more than i couldve asked for!! I lost my dad a little over 2 years ago and was depressed he couldnt be there, Deb took time to add a special part in the ceremony in his memory, she led me through the rest of the steps and was patient with me. I couldnt have picked a more perfect person for the job and i highly recommend her!!
