I always found traditional weddings and formal officiants rather boring, and the ceremonies often felt inauthentic to the people wanting to marry. I told myself if I was ordained, I would do something different. Something that was real, and meaningful to the couples I officiated for.
After being ordained as a Dudeist priest, I registered with the State of Oklahoma, and began performing unique marriage ceremonies, as well as assisting couples who needed a non-judgmental minister to sign their marriage licenses.
I've had the immense pleasure of performing bringing many wonderful couples together in marriage or commitment ceremonies, and each event is uniquely tailored to their personal beliefs, cultures, and other facets that reflect who they truly are.
I am happy to wear whatever attire is preferred for me as the officiant, and enjoy networking with friends and family as we celebrate.
If couples would like spiritual or secular marriage counseling in advance of their ceremony, I am happy to offer those services as well. I am not a licensed professional counselor, so these sessions should be considered as spiritual guidance only.
