What couples are saying

★★★★★

Fernanda made our wedding day absolutely perfect. She captured everything about us in the ceremony and our guests were in happy tears. We could not have asked for a better officiant.

The bilingual ceremony was everything we dreamed of. My grandmother only speaks Spanish and she understood every single word. She cried the whole time. Fernanda is so talented and warm!

We did the Sign and Go package and it was so easy and stress-free. Fernanda handled everything with the county and was so professional. Her studio is gorgeous too, perfect for photos!

Fernanda came to our backyard wedding and it felt like having a close friend officiate. She listened to our love story and wove it into the most beautiful ceremony. Everyone asked who she was!

As a same-sex couple, finding a truly welcoming officiant was so important. Fernanda made us feel completely celebrated and loved. Her studio is stunning and she is an absolute gem!

About Fernanda

Your story deserves a beautiful ceremony

Fernanda's ceremony studio
Bakersfield's private ceremony studio

Hola! I'm Fernanda Salcido, Bakersfield's #1 bilingual wedding officiant. For over 13 years, I've had the privilege of officiating weddings for hundreds of couples across Kern County and beyond.

What I love most is listening to your love stories. Every couple is unique, and every ceremony I craft reflects that. Whether you want a simple heartfelt exchange of vows or a fully personalized ceremony, I'm here for all of it.

I offer fully bilingual ceremonies in English and Spanish at no extra charge, because when family speaks both languages, every word should land with meaning for everyone in the room.

My private ceremony studio in Bakersfield is something truly special — a fully decorated, completely private, photo-ready sanctuary in white and gold. No setup fees, no rental minimums, no strangers walking through. Just your moment, beautifully framed. I also travel to venues, backyards, beach destinations, and beyond.
