Sailing the ocean blue brought these two together as John had just bought a new boat and asked a couple of friends to go out on the water with him. His friend asked if she could bring her roommate, and in walked Eva into John’s life. She agreed to be his wife over a surprise Valentine’s Day weekend in Santa Barbara, and they began planning a wedding that had the oceanic theme intertwined all throughout.
