James and Lindsay had been tapped to be the Best Man and Maid of Honor in their good friends' (Grayson and Renee Atkinson) wedding. Grayson had been trying to set the two up for years. After Christmas, Grayson and Renee wanted their Best Man and Maid of Honor to meet so they all went bowling, and James and Lindsay spent the evening easily talking together. Despite, that easy first meeting they didn't go on their first date until August 13, 2012, after the wedding. See Lindsay and James giving their toasts at the wedding below. Lindsay's was long, sentimental, and typed double-spaced. James's was a sweet, math problem, that he wrote beforehand.
