I also impart on the couple my knowledge from my more than 54 years of marriage, which they appreciate.

Hello Captain,
Im so happy and in crazy love and most importantly IM MARRIED!!! Thank you soooo much, words really can't express how fantastic Monday was. Who would have thought there were 2 other weddings happening the same day? Oh my! Thanks for organizing everything and staying calm and helping us get through it. It was the most special day of my life and I know Tyler feels the same! Im still in wedding bliss.
Please let me know if there is anything else you need - you are fantastic Captain. Thank you for all the lovely words of wisdom, our ceremony was perfect.
I look forward to staying in touch and we'll check your website from time to time to see if our picture is up. Thank you again - enjoy your weekend!!!

Our note:
If you dont believe in super powers, now its time to change your mind.
In fact Captain Arnold was able to do the magic: he turned the awful, cold, rainy and grey New York weather into a stunning, sunny, mild and perfect day for our wedding!
He officiated our ceremony at the Ladies' Pavilion in Central Park, right in front of the lake, in a lovely, relaxed and intimate atmosphere. Like only an experienced and sure Captain can do, he accompanied the bride, the groom, our families and all our guests through a magic journey, with solemn, inspiring, touching and even funny words because Love also needs cheerfulness.
We are now married and so happy for the unique moment the Captain was able to give us.
We will never forget this magic day.
Thank you Captain Arnold, you are simply the best!
Isabella & Matteo
