Hi Capt. Arnold,

Apologies in taking so long to reply, had a bit of an extended honeymoon, back to normality, work wise. Thank you so much for the wedding vows and photo you sent to us, reading the vows in the comfort of our home brought it back how emotional the whole evening was. Our friends and family are still talking about the service you did for us, saying that it was by far the best service they had ever been to. The majority of our married friends would have liked the exact service for their own wedding. They all thought you were fabulous. I would like to extend a very personal thank you to you, as if it hadn’t been for you and your calming influence and jovial personality, I think I would have fallen apart, when all the plans went astray at the very start of the evening. We eventually found the best man and party of 3 who went missing, they had actually gone to the opposite side of Manhattan. They eventually found the correct marina and were waiting for us as we docked. They came aboard to a round of applause and cheers, and David and I exchanged our wedding rings, more tears all round.

Once again, Thank you so much you definitely made our special day extra special. We will keep in touch and let you know, if we are blessed with the patter of “tiny feet” !!!!!!!

Kind regards,
David & Tracey Ingham

Dear Captain Arnold,
Thank you so very much for making our ceremony absolutely beautiful. We are so glad we found you to join us together as husband and wife. You are wonderful! You’ve captured all of the emotions and feelings we wanted to convey. Our wedding was the most fabulous day of our lives! (so far). 🙂 I can’t tell you enough, how impressed and very touched all of our guests were with both our ceremony and the “Child Ceremony” held for Crisabella. Every one of our guests commentedÝon how beautiful you made our special day!
Love and warmest regards,
Frank and Cheri Martino

Dear Captain Arnold, Happy New Year!
Since our wedding on December 11, 2004, the honeymoon, Christmas, New Year’s and then finally trying to get back into the swing of things – this is the first down time I’ve had to collect my thoughts. First and foremost, I want to thank you for not only the most memorable ceremony anyone could have asked for, but also the support you had given to us leading up to that moment. I don’t think things would have went as smoothly as they did if it wasn’t for the guidance you gave. Getting married is a nervous time for everyone and when I was at my breaking point I just picked up the phone like you said, called you and you calmed me down. Words cannot describe how thankful I am for everything you have done for us.
Sincerely,
Chris & Kim Mercurio

Happy New Year, Captain Arnold!

Thank you for the note and as I am sure you will understand in this busy holiday season, we’ve been remiss in thanking you.

Your touching ceremony and thoughtful words and sentiments are often mentioned by both of our families as unlike any other wedding.  We would like to, in fact, we need to thank you for adding immeasurably to our very special day.  With all the decisions that had to be made, all the planning that needed to take place, we can easily say that choosing you to perform our ceremony was the easiest and most rewarding.  Your attention to every detail and suggestion to include our families in the ceremony made for an even more memorable day.  The lighting of the Unity candle tapers by our mothers and including Trevor in the exchanging of rings as a sign of our commitment to him as parents touched our hearts.

The ceremony itself, with words that so accurately expressed our feelings for each other, was what made that day our day.  All lifelong commitments should start with such deeply moving feelings.  Your thoughts of our future and what lay ahead continue to inspire us each time we reminisce.  Please know that we appreciate you and thank you.

Take care and best wishes,
Leigh Ann and Henry Hodo

Hi Captain Arnold,

Yes, we did receive the copy of the marriage license, the vows, and the picture.  It was the first wedding picture that we had.  I did want to also thank you for the beautiful way that you had printed out our wedding vows.  I have a frame all ready to put it in.  What else can I say, I was definitely overwhelmed by all of your words as you could probably tell with all the tears of joy in my eyes.

I also wanted to thank you for not getting upset when the ceremony did not start on time.

Everything was perfect from you, it truly will be a day I will never forget.

Thank you again and take care!
Leigh Ann Hodor

Dear Captain Arnold,
Michael and I would like to extend our gratitude for the beautiful ceremony you performed at our wedding. From the moment we met you at the diner in Freeport, we felt at ease. The vows you chose were beautifully written and reflected the love Michael and I have for one another. Many of our guests have positively commented on the ceremony you performed.

Thank you again for adding to our wedding day.

With best regards,
Michael & Dayna Badillo

This couple lost their wedding rings just before the ceremony so we had to improvise.” Lady luck was with them as they found the rings several days later.

Captain Arnold
Kerry and I want to let you know that you made our ceremony very special and your words touched everybody there. My father was very moved and Kerry and I were very pleased and we like to thank you for making our day so great.
P.S. We found the rings in my shoe.

Thank You
John O’Connor
