The userform module seems to have alot of what I need in form processing. However, I would need a dropdown list in my form to contain options from a pre-existing database table.

Does anyone have an example of this they could point me to?

Check out the member list field as an example - https://github.com/silverstripe/silverstripe-userforms/blob/master/code/editor/EditableMemberListField.php. You would need to create a new form field for your use case.

I'll look into that. Thanks for your reply!
