Jocilyn is Julia's sister, and is the life of the party! She and the bride have always enjoyed sharing their love for movies, games and travel. James' are known for their competitive nature, and between board games, video games and bowling, there has been a lot of winning and losing going over the years (lets be honest, Jocilyn wins most of the time). But, this time the bride won because having her as a sister is a win.
