Are you getting married or are wanting to get married soon? You don’t have to travel to Las Vegas to get married and elope. You can hire me... I’m located locally here in Bakersfield California. Wedding planning can be very frustrating. Engaged couples often struggle to find an officiant that gets them. I am a Wedding Officiant for Bakersfield and surrounding towns here in Kern County that gets you. 

I am flexible to perform any kind of wedding ceremony in any wedding location in and around Bakersfield; from a civil ceremony, a non religious wedding to a religious wedding as well as many ceremony additions to create a fully customized ceremony. 

So if you’re looking for “officiants near me” and you happen to want to get married in Bakersfield or somewhere locally, then you should call me.

Once I confirm date and time, I will email you a confirmation email. 

I can use my own pre-written wedding vows or you can write your own wedding vows from scratch. I will perform any sort of wedding ceremony that you want. All I ask is that you let me know before the wedding ceremony.

It is understandable that a wedding can be behind schedule at times. That is why I always give my couples an hour of my schedule time to conduct your wedding ceremony.

I do not want to be mean about it, but if your wedding does go beyond an half an hour after the wedding was suppose to start, you will be billed $30.00 and $15.00 for each additional 15 minutes thereafter for waiting.

(31-45 minutes) $30.00

(76-90 minutes) $75.00

Bakersfield Hospital Bedside 

Wedding Ceremonies

We Are Ordained Ministers and 

Non-Denominational Wedding Officiants:

Unfortunately, sometimes an accident or illness will speed up the wedding process. If you require someone to marry you and your love one, give me a call. We will travel to any hospital, nursing home or hospice facility in the Bakersfield area to marry the two of you. I’ll travel to you and do the proper paperwork and notarize your signatures. And my wedding officiant will conduct a hospital bedside wedding and file the paperwork to the County Clerk’s Office

***

Want us to attend the Wedding Rehearsal?

I am perfectly happy to do Wedding Rehersals for our couples for an additional fee, but the vast majority of my clients choose to do the rehearsal themselves.

But a wedding rehearsal is deliberately focused on the details of who, what, when and where. In the few days leading up to your wedding your bridal party and immediate family will be filled with a mixture of excitement and confusion; excitement over the upcoming marriage, and confusion about a laundry list of logistical, last minute details. This commonly results in the bridal party being distracted and sometimes fuzzy about the details of their honored roles and duties. That’s why you need a rehearsal, and this is where a seasoned wedding officiant is so helpful. We use the rehearsal time to build relationship with your bridal party. In a lighthearted way we will guide your party and help you focus on what everyone is to do. A well-rehearsed bridal party will help make your wedding ceremony everything you’ve dreamed it would be.
