Wedding ARCHIVES Central Park

Hi Captain Arnold,

Thanks for working with us on the ceremony on such short notice.

It worked out well and in the early pics I am seeing you looked perfect in uniform conducting the ceremony. Quite a few people have said that they were touched by the ceremony and a few even had tears in their eyes at different points.

I admire your professionalism and even your touches of humour which were appropriate during the ceremony.

Once we get the official photographers pics I’ll send you any that would be appropriate.

Regards and thanks again,
Cindy and Les

PS Please extend our thanks to Mimi for her translating and coordinating skills. They definitely made the ceremony that much better for Cindy’s parents and family.

We wanted to send you a quick thank you for the wonderful ceremony you conducted for us in Central Park on August 26, 2006. You exceeded our expectations!
We had a chance to review a video of the wedding this past weekend and listened to the words again. After the ceremony, several guests came up to us to let us know what a great ceremony it was.
The children’s ceremony was a special touch. We will always remember our special day in Central Park and you were a very important part of it.

Thank you again!!
Bill & Traci Fazekas

Dear Captain Arnold,

Thank you so much for performing such a truly magnificent wedding ceremony for us on 8.12.06.
Your words, spiced with touches of humor, were inspiring and could not have been more appropriate if I wrote them myself.
Our guests still rave about you and your ceremony!
We could not believe how many people couldn’t wait to speak with you thereafter!

With many warm regards & thanks,
Jillian & Birol Argun

Dear Captain Arnold,

After finally arriving home from our 6 week long holiday/honeymoon we were welcomed with a letter from you and the most beautiful vows that we spoke on our wedding day on the other side of the world, which now seems so long ago, but we just had to write and express our thanks.

From the moment of our first contact only days before our ceremony in New York City you put our mind at ease that our wedding in a far-away land would be special.   Your personal touch and vows made it a memory of a lifetime.   We could not believe that our wedding could be so moving and special when we were so far away from home and no loved ones close by.   You made our wedding exactly what we wanted, a moment just for us filled with love and emotion.

Thank you very much for making it so personal, special and so moving.   It is your words that certainly made our wedding what it was.   We will cherish the memory forever.   We also need to thank you for doing what you did along with the others involved in our wedding during a unique event in New York – a train strike.   We greatly appreciated that all those involved did whatever they could, to not only make sure our wedding was a great event, but that it even took place.

Thank you again and if you ever venture Down Under we hope that you will pay us a visit.

Thanks again

Brett & Michelle Hammond

Dear Captain,

Thank you so much for the wonderful wedding ceremony you gave for us.

This ceremony will be in our memories for ever…

Dear Captain Arnold,

John and I have just returned to Australia following our wonderful honeymoon in France and England and received your letter in the mail.

Thanks you so much for the wedding vows and photo, along with a copy of the marriage license.  The vows truly are beautiful.

We have sent you a letter, which we wrote in France but did not post until we got back to Australia as I only had your email address with me.  It says all the things we wanted to tell you about how we felt about our ceremony on Bow Bridge.  The ceremony was absolutely beautiful and you were a huge hit with all the guests who talked about you all day!

It was exciting to see our picture on your website!  When you receive the letter please feel free to reproduce it on your website.

Thank you for all you have done for us.  We will not forget you.

Warmest regards,
Lyn and John

Dear Captain Arnold,

Our wedding day was the most special day of our lives and you were, without a doubt, superb as the marriage officiant.

From the first time we viewed your wonderful website, from our home in Australia, and effortlessly communicated our plans with you over the net, your professionalism and genuine care and service was outstanding.

When we finally met on September 3rd in Central Park, New York, your confidence, experience and warmth toward us was reassuring and we knew we’d made the right choice.

You brought to the wedding ceremony a wonderful sense of occasion with your words, sensitivity, warmth and humour. You made us feel uniquely special!

Our guest who had traveled from Australia, England, Ireland and other parts of the U.S. were completely in awe of you and your ceremony.   They continued to speak fondly of you well into the next day, mostly talking of the words you spoke and the way you said them.

Captain Arnold, even though our paths have crossed ever so briefly we will never forget you.   We are so very happy and feel so very lucky that we found you for our wedding day. The love you brought to our special ceremony will live with us, and our friends, forever.

With Love & Gratitude,

John & Lyn Reynolds
Brisbane, Australia
