After a day of questionable communication, Luke and Madalyn went on their first date in January 2024 after matching on Hinge earlier that month. New to Alabama and Topgolf, Madalyn was convinced she’d been stood up—until Luke showed up anyway, complete with a thick Southern accent her New York ears could barely understand (but he was handsome, so it helped). He later admitted he’d never been yelled at on a first date before and simply had to meet her. From that night on, they were inseparable—proof that her high energy and his steady Southern calm were perfectly matched, just as God planned. 🤍
