    Lovely Ceremony & Very Unique

    We found Captain Arnold on one of the preferred vendor lists in our venue search. His name stood out, and we ended up looking him up online and contacting him for more information. We didn’t want a traditional wedding ceremony or anything religious since we come from two different religious backgrounds, so we settled on Captain Arnold. He was unique & he really did a nice job. We got a lot of compliments from our wedding guests. He really did a beautiful ceremony. Upon returning from our honeymoon, I had mail from him which included a copy of our vows, a photocopy of the license he mailed in, and a photo of us with him (which he had someone take on his digital camera and printed for us).

    Hi Captain Arnold,

    We received the picture, vows, and marriage license. Thank you for sending all of that. We just wanted to say thank you for performing our wedding ceremony on July 28th. We’re glad the rain did not keep it from happening outside. Thank you for the kind words you spoke and the humor you brought. Everyone wanted to know how we found you. You got a lot of compliments from our wedding guests who loved what you said. We couldn’t have been happier with how everything turned out.

    Thank you for everything.

    Captain Arnold,

    What can I say? I’m at a loss for words!
    I can’t express how delighted me an Ernie are about the most spectacular night of our lives.
    Your ceremony touched our hearts as well as all of our guests. It was so beautiful. Every word touched our hearts. My daughter Natalie was so thrilled to have been able to be included in our wedding. She loved the sand ceremony and the child ceremony that brought us all together as one. Our wedding day will be a day we will never forget!

    From the delicious food to the entertaining DJ and Jaz your beautiful Angel wedding coordinator. She was so attentive and made sure everything was perfect. Buck the photographer has created a beautiful photo video which captures every important and special moment of that evening.

    Our family and friends enjoyed the magic you brought to our reception too. We are so happy we chose your venue to make and share these beautiful memories with us. It was a dream come true. We hope to celebrate our next milestone with you all.

    Thank you from the bottom of our hearts

    The Captain was amazing!

    We stumbled upon Captain Arnold during our wedding preparations and are so happy that we did. He was very kind, calming, and his words (and voice) at the ceremony made it unforgettable! He made everything so easy and smooth. Afterward, all of our guests asked us one question, “Where did you find this guy!? He was amazing!” It was the best ceremony they’d ever seen and we couldn’t agree more. We owe it all to the Captain! Thank you for making our vows and wedding day so special!

    xoxo

    WEDDING LOCATION:

    Married aboard the “Skyline Princess Motor Yacht”
    (World’s Fair Marina, Flushing, NY)

    Dear Capt. Arnold,

    Julian and I just want to want to give you a big thank you for the wonderful ceremony that you did for us both. From beginning to end it was a very emotional and touching ceremony. The touching words you said to us about marriage stills plays over and over in my head until this day. And every time I replay that day in my head, I still get tears that fill up in my eyes. We really appreciate it when you acknowledge the family members that either couldn’t make it and was no longer with us. That really meant a lot to me because it has been really hard not having them be around us for that our special wedding day.

    The sand ceremony that you did for us that day was so beautiful and unique and hearing the words you said along with us mixing our two color grains of sand together, was so amazing. I really loved how beautiful the two color sands looked together when they were mixed. We really thank you for that wonderful ceremony. As for the children ceremony, that was very touching because the look on my kid’s faces was so priceless when they receive their tokens. I know my little 2-year old was a little handful, but again we want to thank you for the amazing words you spoke to us about each of our children.

    Lastly, I myself want to say happy belated birthday because I had no idea that your birthday was the same day as our wedding. I had found out from the announcement from the cruise members. I hope that birthday was one to remember and be one that will live on forever in your memory because I know for us it will be one to never be forgotten ever. Thank you from the bottom of both our hearts for all the great words and laughs we shared on our special day. I wish we can go back and relive that day all over again. Thank you for marrying us once again and we hope you enjoyed that day as much as we did.

    Thank you dearly from a very happy and loving couple
    Mr. and Mrs. Colon
