This romance began where all true love stories originate: The Bungalow in Santa Monica. Katrina was a recent graduate of USC celebrating her 23rd birthday, while James was in the final months of his MBA at UCLA. After a couple drinks, he managed to secure the birthday girl’s phone number. A few dates followed before the pandemic lockdown, which only fast-tracked their relationship and the rest is history.

Four and a half years later, Katrina and James are excited to celebrate their nuptials with their closest family and friends in Santa Barbara.
