Ordained to Officiate Weddings, Baptisms and Funerals
Barbara was ordained by American Marriage Ministries (AMM) on December 16, 2020, and also serves as a clergy member with the Universal Life Church.
“I became ordained because I believe everyone deserves to have their love celebrated in a way that truly reflects who they are. Everyone has their own preferences for how they want to be married, and I want to support that vision — whether it’s traditional, unconventional, spiritual, or simple. I had a somewhat unconventional wedding myself, and my marriage has been absolutely wonderful. I wish that same joy and authenticity for every couple.”
Based in Arkansas, Barbara is honored to help couples create meaningful ceremonies that celebrate their unique story and commitment.
