Following the party, they began dating and two years later, Winter popped the question during a trip to Sanchez’s native Puerto Rico. Winter asked for her hand in marriage while they were kayaking in a bioluminescent bay and later admitted what he was “petrified” about after he asked her.
“[I] was petrified she would drop the ring,” he said per InStyle, adding, “It never left the box. She accepted; I shut the box and told her she could see it again on land.”
In 2008, WInter and Sanchez said “I do” at the San Cristobal fort in Old San Juan. Around 250 guests attended the affair including other celebrities like Eva Longoria.
For the ceremony, the bride wore a strapless princess-style gown, while Winter donned a black Calvin Klein suit. At the reception, which was held at the Caribe Hilton Hotel, Sanchez changed into a silk-satin chiffon dress with feathers for her first dance with her new husband and then sported a silk organza gown later in the night.
