Captain Arnold:

We wanted to send this email to you to say thank you so much for making our wedding day as special as it was. Your whole presentation blew away our audience. You made our parents so proud and the rose ceremony with our mothers was a complete surprise and honor for both of them. Out of the 140 people we had attend the wedding, 140 of them praised your dedications, presentation, and demeanor. We knew from the day we met you at the Bayside Diner that you would do a great job, what we did not know was that you would do such a great job that everyone at the wedding would be raving about you after they watched the vows. Thank you for filing ever so quickly as well, we had the marriage license within 7 days of the wedding which was a big help since having that is what enables you to switch all of your documentation when changing your name. You made us proud to have chosen you, and to have gotten to know you.

We wish you nothing but the best in the future, and we will never forget how you made our day just that much more special. I will not hesitate to refer you to anyone I know going through the same process in the future. I also know you did such a wonderful job that everyone who was lucky enough to have witnessed it will also recommend you in the future as well. God Bless.

Sincerely,
Keith and Blair Cassagio

Hello Captain Arnold,

I just want to take the time to thank you for all you have done to make our day memorable. Thank you so much for all the special, personal touches that you have incorporated into our ceremony. It was truly something we will always remember! We have been told by our friends and loved ones that we had a beautiful ceremony. From the child ceremony to the special dedications for the ones who couldn’t be there, every word was meaningful.

Thank you for everything!

God Bless,
Crystal & Jack Kramer

Dear Captain Arnold,

We want to take the time and thank you for everything that you have done for our wedding aboard the Skyline Princess. The wedding was beautiful and just the way it was meant to happen. The ceremony was perfect and we love the humor that you add to the ceremony, our families and friends are still talking about it. We especially love the kind tribute for my god brother that had passed away two weeks before the wedding, it really meant a lot to my family. I also would like to thank Stephanie; she was very delightful the whole time. The day was so well put together, we could not have asked for more. May GOD continue blessing you with peace, love and happiness.

With Love,

Dawan & Monique Winbush

Dear Captain Arnold,

Thank you so much for the wonderful service you provided us on July 2, 2011. Our wedding ceremony went off without a hitch and we are still getting compliments. We were a little worried after dealing with the wedding experience coordinators from Miami but you quickly calmed us and exemplified how things should have been running from the beginning. You and your staff were helpful, knowledgeable, and extremely pleasant and easy to work with. The ceremony you performed for us was beautifully done and even included some humor, which was very important to us. We will always cherish that day and thanks to you it was an extra memorable one. Thanks again for everything!

Yours truly,
Anthony & Helen D’Esposito

Dear Captain Arnold,

And this came later:

Hi Captain Arnold,

Thank you so much for the package! The photo is beautiful and I actually have it framed now. And what a beautiful and unexpected memento to have a copy of our vows.
Thank you again for your wonderful ceremony and service. I will genuinely and sincerely recommend you to anyone who asks. I hope this finds you warm and well.

Best regards to you and your family,

Daisy

Capt. Arnold,

Everyone absolutely raved about the ceremony and how different it was from any wedding they had previously attended. The special touches you added made it even more so special .

We found it to be very personal and heartwarming. It was more beautiful than we ever could have imagined. It was indeed like a fairy tale!

Our friends and family were enamored by the love we expressed to each other. Your words touched all of our hearts. Thank you for making our day even so memorable.

From the bottom of our hearts. Thank You So Much, Mark & Katherine”
Happy Holidays and More Blessing in 2012!

Dear Captain Arnold,

Michael and I returned from our honeymoon and got caught up with the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays, and just realized we hadn’t thanked you yet for providing us with the most beautiful, meaningful and unforgettable ceremony one can ever imagine. Our married guests keep telling us they felt like they were renewing their own vows all over again. The words chosen to express the commitment, your personal touches, our vows, all set the tone for a successful reception following the ceremony. We could feel the warmth and love everywhere in the reception room. Thank you again, for making our special day, truly special. You made a great impact on the whole ceremony that our family and friends will never forget.

Michael and I would like to take this opportunity to wish you a holiday season filled with joy and delight for you, and those you love, and the best of everything in the coming year.

Thank you,
Michael and Louise Regan

P.S.We just loved the picture taken of the three of us. Feel free to post it on the website together with our comments.

Dear Captain Arnold,

Thank you so much for making our wedding ceremony perfect. Our wedding was beautiful and memorable. You chose the perfect vows for us and we thank you!

Love Always,
Lauren & Noel

Dear Captain Arnold –

We wanted to tell you ‘thank you’ again for making our day extra special (10/30/11).

I hadn’t been told by the wedding ‘people’ who would be performing our ceremony and quite frankly, I had some concerns. Those concerns were quickly swept away when you arrived at the pier and took charge of us – I couldn’t dream up anything to be concerned about because you took care of everything (exactly what a bride, of any age, needs)!

Your words couldn’t have been more perfect – and the vows we exchanged might have been written by us, as they were so perfect and full of meaning.

Thank you for having tissues, too ?

Our honeymoon cruise was wonderful and over too soon. When we arrived in port this past Sunday, I was feeling very melancholy that it was over. When I put my coat on I reached in the pocket and found the little blue bead dog you had made to entertain (distract) us. All I could do was smile about the very special memories we have from our special day.

I named the ‘bead dog’ Capt Arnold, by the way, and he has a place of honor in our china cabinet.

Thank you again!
Susan and Richard Thompson

Hi there Captain,

I wanted to thank you again, very much for the ceremony that you did for us. We were very blessed to have you do it and the sand ceremony meant a lot to both of us. It was an amazing day, with an amazing ceremony. Also, thank you again for asking Rich if we could use the fishing station. It was a unique location, which as I mentioned the other day, fit us very well and with Brandon’s history was very appropriate. I also wanted to send you a few of the pictures that we got, if you’d like physical copies of them let me know and I’ll mail them to you as well, but for now, here are a few that are attached. =)

Thank you again so much

Hello Captain,

Thank you so much for performing such a wonderful ceremony. Although it was a blustery fall day on the beach, you warmed everyone’s hearts with your kind words and wisdom. It truly was such a beautiful ceremony! Your commanding presence and the waves and wind really made quite an impact on everyone there (including the seagulls hovering over the water, riding the wind.)

Everytime I think about it I tear up!!! My friends and family loved you! I really appreciated how organized and helpful you were before and after the event. You kept everything together while I was a nervous bride!!

I would also like to thank you for all the helpful information and documentation you sent along after the wedding as well.

You will always have a very special place in our hearts.

Love,
Carol & Michael Nofi

Dear Captain,

We would like to thank you so much for the unforgettable wedding we have had thank’s to your tenacity. Without your efforts, we were probably unable to have the “highest” wedding of Manhattan!

This day on the 86TH floor of the Empire State Building will stay in our mind as one of the best souvenir in our life.

We have dreamed it, you did it !

Thank you again and hopefully see you soon…

Dear Captain Arnold,

Thank you so much for making our special day just perfect! Your eloquence, your wisdom, your caring and, most importantly, your humor created a nuptial Central Park memory we will always cherish. True to your profession, you did not forget to advise us on how to keep a steady course when the seas get rough; we do appreciate that for our wedding, though, you put in a good word with Poseidon, making sure that there would be no rain!

While striking the perfect balance between solemnity and joyfulness, your style was as smooth and professional as if you had been officiating at weddings all your life, but your enthusiasm for our happiness was as genuine, heartfelt and sweet as if we had been the very first couple ever to get hitched by you.

With you as the skipper who sent us on our journey through life, we know it will be a voyage as boundless and marvelous as that enormous love in our hearts which is–and always will be–the anchor of our togetherness.

May peace, love and happiness always be with you.

Melissa & Dominik

Captain Arnold,

We just wanted to thank you again for the beautiful ceremony you performed to help make our special day one we will never forget. Every part of the ceremony was heartfelt, touching, and meaningful. We could not have asked for more and will treasure your words and advice throughout the years. From the giving away of the bride to the wonderful rose ceremony to honor our mothers, you helped to express our love for each other and our families throughout your ceremony. Thank you again.

Love,
Keri and Arnold Endl

Dear Captain Arnold,

Jerry and I would like to thank you for performing the wonderful and memorable ceremony. You made us feel completely calm throughout the entire process. It was truly an unforgettable experience that we think about it every day. Our guests enjoyed the ceremony and the cruise. We could not have asked for a better setting.

Sincerely,
Larisa and Jerry
