Dear Capt. Arnold,

It gives us much pleasure to write this letter. Just a few words to thank you for a wonderful day aboard World Yacht on 7/31/06.

I was a little concerned when we booked our daughter’s wedding not having an Officiant, but thanks to Marybeth she gave me your phone number and highly recommended you. I am so grateful.

We knew immediately when we spoke on the phone that you would make the wedding complete.

I loved your “sense of humor” and you helped me step-by-step construct exactly what they wanted.

The day turned out to be perfect; the weather was cool enough to perform the ceremony topside as well.

What impressed us the most was how you included so much “substance” in a short time.

As we carefully listened to your words, you clearly reminded the young couple the true significance of marriage; honor, fidelity etc.

Your personal touch to the ceremony is what made it really really special…….. We can’t thank you enough.

In closing, we can without reservation recommend you to any prospective couple. Your personal attention, professionalism, verbal communication, and sharp wit, has gained our utmost respect for you.

Thanks for a very MEMORABLE day for us all.

Fondly,

Joanne/John LLera
Jen/Mario Flores

Dear Captain Arnold,

We don’t know where to begin. Words can’t describe how beautiful the ceremony was. Straight from the heart it was better then we imagined.

So many compliments from everyone that was there saying it was the best they have every heard and been to. It really meant a lot.

Thank you for the picture of us together and the verbiage of the vows. We will never forget it.

Thank you for the best ceremony possible.

Love,
Robin & Jason Sheehy.

Dear Captain Arnold,

My husband and I got married by you on 12th June 2006 on Cloud Nine III Yacht and we wanted to send our heartfelt thanks to you for making our day so wonderous. Our first year of married life has been very hectic and so this thank you is quite belated, but I wanted to let you know that we never forgot what a special day you made it and we want to say thanks again. To cut a very, very, very long story short, both Dave and I were very ill at different times since our marriage and several close relatives have also been seriously ill and so our thank you’s took a back seat until now- we certainly tested the vows for better for worse and in sickness and in health!! We are all in good health now and I have finally found space to thank everyone who contributed to making the happiest day of Dave and my life so much more special. Congratulations on your 50th wedding anniversary – the photos look beautiful. My family and friends also said what a fantastic job you did and so a big thank you from them too. Dave and I are very happy together and marriage does make a difference – I feel like one with him now and we are more in love now than we have ever been. We are returning to NYC for our anniversary this year and we cannot wait.

Could you also thank Dwayne for us. Our computer broke down and I lost all email addresses and so I could not find his contact details. I would like to send a card or an email to thank him as he did a wonderful job and we have watched the video a million times. Please find attached another photo and I wish you all the best in the future. Thanks again

Best Wishes

Dear Captain Arnold,

It’s been over a month since our wedding and everyone is still talking about it – especially the ceremony. People told us it was the best ceremony that they ever heard at a wedding! You most definitely made our wedding a very memorable event. The dedication to our grandfathers, ceremony, and most importantly the vows were beautiful, touching, and they hold true to married life. The humor you interjected set a comfortable tone and a fun atmosphere for everyone. We wanted to thank you and let you know it was our pleasure to have you marry us. We appreciated your mannerism and professionalism throughout the whole process.

Dear Captain Arnold,

Sorry it has taken this long to send you this note, but Jennifer and I wanted to thank you for conducting our wedding ceremony on the yacht Cayah Michele on May 7th and for making that aspect so memorable for us.

Your words struck the tone we wanted and perfectly balanced the overall flavor of the event we had organized. On that note, we appreciate how you went through everything with us running up to the event, for up to many months in advance, so we never had to be concerned about the ceremony as the most important aspect of the wedding.

We kept the fact that our nautical wedding was going to be conducted by a Captain as a surprise, and our family and other guests not only enjoyed it, but many commented on how nice the ceremony was. We recall the appropriate solemnity, mixed with plenty of laughter and smiles, and a few tears of joy. The wedding overall will leave us with unforgettable memories.

In fact, my mother enjoyed your words such that she asked if it were possible to get a transcript of what you said, if you have it, as she would like it to keep with photographs etc. I said that we had our vows, as Jen and I had written them with your help, but that I would ask you about the
other parts.

Married life is treating us well so far. We continue to be very happy together and look forward to a lifetime of enjoyment and more great memories side by side. We have attached one of the official photos from the day to this Email and hope all is well with you.

Sincere thanks once again.

Mark Allen & Jennifer Hurley
