Captain Arnold,
I want to thank you so much for the beautiful ceremony. I apologize in taking so long in getting back to you. You know how much newlyweds go through after a wedding/honeymoon, but I just had to take time out of my busy schedule to thank you for the ceremony of my dreams. I felt that all of the other couples should know how great you are! I know that reading the reviews helped me out and I would love to be able to give those reading the same assistance! If any of you are booked with Captain Arnold or are considering him for being the officiant for your special day, please be at ease, it’s tailored specifically for you and flows beautifully. From beginning to end you really provided us with the confidence and energy to get through what can be a very hectic time. I truly value our phone conversations, you got to know who we were as a couple and incorporated that into the ceremony. Also, we got to know you and got a sense peace figuring that everything would go smoothly – and it did! During the ceremony it’s hard to focus of course with all of the nerves, and emotions running through your body, but Captain Arnold, you really put me at ease and helped me to feel so very comfortable. Your touches of humor helped to offset the very touching and sentimental moments without detracting from the beauty of the ceremony. Anyone considering the Rose Ceremony, Go for It!!! Our moms/grandmother and in our case my father truly appreciated being appreciated. The words spoken truly illustrated how we feel. It was nice to give them a token of love on our special day. The Sand Ceremony was so Cool!!! So different yet so nice, I can’t imagine our wedding day without it. Again, the words spoken to unite us and our families were beautiful. We still have it sitting on our bureau and will cherish it forever! I really appreciated getting the vows so quickly after the ceremony, they are dear to us and we will cherish these forever as well. Your videographer was great (we also got that within a couple of weeks) and let’s just say I looked at the video and was amazed at the words you spoke, I cried all over again. A few days after the ceremony, while selecting our wedding photos, I spoke to the Ship’s photographer, he said to me that he has NEVER been to a ceremony that touching and moving. Mind you, this photographer has been everywhere and has photographed hundreds of destination weddings and said that this was the BEST that he has ever seen. I had to let you know that!!!! So again Captain Arnold, we thank you from the bottom of our hearts for being a part of our day and making it so very special. Alert to all couples – Captain Arnold is simply wonderful, I would recommend him without hesitation.
Thanks again.
