Bowersox and Walker wed in the same venue they met at an open mic night in 2004, the singer's rep told People. They had long been platonic friends before taking the relationship up a notch in the last few months.
"Officially mamasox!!!" the talented singer Tweeted Sunday. "I meant walkersox!!!!! Hahaha that's hillarious. :)"
Of her new beau, Bowersox told the magazine she “can't believe how incredibly lucky we are to have found so much laughter, love, and light within each other.”
