Married at The Gatsby (Islip, New York)
Dear Captain Arnold,
We can’t begin to express our gratitude to you for performing such a memorable wedding ceremony for us on April 8th at The Gatsby in Islip.
Since this was the second marraige for both of us, we began our search for a Chaplain not really knowing where to go or what to expect. We knew we wanted it to be special, and were very pleasantly surprised at how wonderful it all was!! The vows we spoke touched everyone in the room. You made everything so personal, serious and lighthearted all at the same time. Our family and friends have not stopped commenting about how wonderful the ceremony was. Many guests had never heard of or seen the sand ceremony and were so delighted by it’s simplicity and the depth of it’s meaning. Our wedding day was truly a day to cherish and it was made all the more special by having you as our Chaplain.
With sincere thanks,
Karen & Charles LaCarrubba

Dear Captain Arnold,
Jeremy and I would like to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for doing such a beautiful and professional job. Your ceremony was unmatched in beauty and depth and was like no other that I have ever seen. It made our wedding day as unique and special as it was. It was a pleasure dealing with you: meeting you at the diner, your sense of humor, your professionalism, your kind, caring attitude and your availability to us at any time. You also have a wonderful voice!
You made sure everything was just right. From the moment I stepped out of the limo on that rainy afternoon, you were right there to help me out with a reassuring arm telling me "I'm here" and to "Hold your dress all the way up" and out of the rain. You even had a little packet of tissues ready which came in handy, since I never thought I was going to cry but of course ended up bawling by the end of the touching Mother's Ceremony.
Your words made us think, laugh, and cry and got the celebation off to a most beautiful start. Our family all commented about the beautiful ceremony. The packet you sent soon after, with the printed wedding vows, marriage licesce copy and photos was wonderful. We will cherish these memories forever.
Again, thank you for making our day so special. We will be keeping in touch…
With much love,
Gabriella & Jeremy Lehmann

Dear Captain Arnold,
We just came back from our Honeymoon and the vows from the beautiful ceremony is still fresh in our head… Your words were captivating and they are words that we will never forget.
Thank you for everything. We really appreciated your promptness in replying to our questions and working with you was one of the few parts of the wedding planning that was truly stress-free.
Our friends and family were equally impressed with your service and I am sure we will see you again at their Weddings. Until then, please take care. Thank you so much again for everything.

Married at the “Ladies Pavilion” (Central Park, New York City)
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
