James and Judy Bowling Aruba Wedding

James and Judy tie the knot at Eagle Beach

James and Judy Bowling of San Clemente, California met on Match.com last year on August 19, 2011. James had sent Judy a message earlier in the week and decided to meet for dinner on Friday, August 19th. Judy and James saw each other every day from that moment on, unless traveling for work. They both met their match as two loving souls who were just meant to be.
James and Judy went to Cabo San Lucas the first week of November 2011 for a getaway vacation. While walking on the beach, at sunset, James pulled out a ring and asked Judy to be his wife.
Between James and Judy they have 5 children. James has 2 sons and 1 daughter and Judy has 2 sons. Judy’s son passed away in 2006.
In 2010 James was diagnosed with leukemia. After 6 months of being in the hospital for chemo and radiation, he had a stem cell transplant and has been in remission every since.
James and Judy felt that they both had many things happen in their lives but felt so lucky to have found each other.
On their first date, Judy told James that she was interested in getting married again. Judy was right to the point and said if he was not interested in being married, then they did not need to see each other again.  James on the other hand felt the same so they started their relationship with the understanding that if they fall in love, it would lead to marriage.
They did not feel the need to wait to get married as they are both level-headed and knew there love was strong.
The wedding plans were in the hands of Lissy Lampe of Ceremonies and Celebrations in Aruba who orchestrated their wedding on Eagle Beach. Andy Osbourne delivered the sermon next to Aruba’s famous Fofoti tree as James and Judy both gazed into their eyes and new that they had found each other and now as one they will share their lives together. Dinner was just a few steps away at the romantic Passions Restaurant on the beach overlooking the nights surreal sunset and under the stars.
The newlyweds are back home and back into the routine of life......they had a great honeymoon in Aruba.
