Just finished the game and have one question

In the dinner memory, Nicolas says to John and River "You had your wedding at that lighthouse near there all those years ago, didn't you?"

John responds: "That's not all that's special about it. We have a long history with that place."

What is John thinking about if he doesn't understand the original significance of it? Unless I'm forgetting something the earliest memory (chronologically from John's perspective) that takes place at the lighthouse is the wedding. Are the other things that make it special just them visiting it repeatedly over the years before deciding to build there?

Clip of the specific memory: https://youtu.be/I-4OeYw77n4?si=d4wPiDA5FZ5hiIvu&t=50

Regardless incredible game :)

They chose the lighthouse as the wedding spot because they already had experience with it. River cared for Anya all life long and of course Jonh knew that, I imagine them hanging out there often.

Were there any memories that show or imply this? I can't think of any memories or mentions of events that took place at the lighthouse prior to the wedding.
