Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and set it aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the crumbled cornbread and day-old white bread. Mix gently to evenly combine the textures.
In a medium skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the diced celery and onion, cooking until softened (about 5 minutes). Stir occasionally to prevent browning.
Pour the cooked celery and onion mixture over the bread crumbs in the large bowl. Stir gently to combine.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, chicken broth, poultry seasoning, dried sage, salt, and black pepper.
Gradually pour the broth mixture into the bread mixture, stirring as you go. Ensure the mixture is moist but not soupy. You may not need all of the broth depending on how dry the bread is.
If desired, fold in the chopped fresh parsley for added freshness and flavor.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Bake uncovered in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and slightly crispy.
Allow the dressing to cool for about 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy your Oklahoma-style cornbread dressing alongside your favorite main dishes!
