BR. Deondre Kendrick
Ordained Minister in ardmore, Oklahoma
Why did you originally become an ordained minister online?
I originally became an ordained minister online because I wanted to help people celebrate love and commitment without barriers—especially for couples who didn’t fit into traditional religious or church settings.
Some friends asked me to officiate their wedding, and I realized how many couples wanted someone who understood their values, respected their unique story, and could make the ceremony feel personal, not just scripted or formal. Getting ordained online allowed me to legally perform weddings while honoring each couple’s individual beliefs—whether spiritual, non-religious, interfaith, or somewhere in between.
It was about being present for people during one of the most meaningful moments of their lives—and doing it with intention, warmth, and dignity. That’s what drew me in, and it’s what keeps me committed.

What do you think makes your ceremonies special as a ardmore, OK wedding officiant?
I blend authenticity, personalization, and deep respect for the couple’s unique story and values.
I take the time to really listen to each couple—to learn not just how they met, but what holds them together, what they hope for, and what moments matter most to them. I then craft a ceremony that feels true to their relationship, whether that's deeply spiritual, joyfully lighthearted, culturally rich, or a mix of all three.
My goal is always to create a space where the couple feels seen, supported, and celebrated, and where the guests leave feeling like they witnessed something genuine and unforgettable. I also bring a calming presence and clear voice, which helps keep everything smooth and stress-free.
