Paige and James met in the parking lot outside of Rebecca Schisler-Adams's third-story apartment in Bowie, Maryland in October 2019. After accidentally inviting James to Rebecca's wedding that day, Paige fell for James nearly a year later when she watched him fall out of a hammock at, none other than Rebecca's, wedding on September 26th, 2020. With a meet-cute more suited to a prank show than a rom com, Paige has enjoyed way too many puns, jokes, and Jaws references while falling in love with James since September 2020. After only five months of Paige bringing James sushi and watching Pirates of the Caribbean while he worked from home for his accounting firm, Paige left for Air Force Officer training in February 2021. Paige and James consistently visited each other in Maryland and Nebraska for the next year, until James joined Paige in Nebraska in June 2022, being the loving military boyfriend that he was. Paige and James became parishioners at the incredible St. Frances Cabrini Parish in the Little Italy neighborhood of Omaha, Nebraska, where James ultimately proposed on June 25th, 2023.
