In the third season finale of The Office titled The Job, Jim finally asks Pam out. Season 3 was filled with tension between Jim and Pam. It was revealed that Jim had left Scranton because of Pam's rejection. But Pam admits that she wishes for him to come back.

In an interview in front of the camera, just as Pam is telling the crew that she does not think it would ever work out between her and Jim, he rushes through the door and asks her out to dinner. Looking stunned, she agrees, to which Jim says,

“Alright. Then, it's a date.”

After Jim exits the room, Pam is visibly joyous and forgets what she was saying.

Jim and Pam's big day arrived in the two-part episode of the sixth season titled Niagara. The wedding was taking place around Niagara Falls, but the situation became messy when Jim accidentally revealed Pam's pregnancy to all the guests, including her very old-fashioned grandmother.

To make matters worse, Pam accidentally ripped her veil before the ceremony. The couple met in private, where Pam revealed that she is upset about her appearance in her wedding dress due to being pregnant. To console her, Jim cuts his tie in half.

The touching gesture shows how much Jim cares for Pam. When Pam regrets inviting their families and the office staff, the two sneak away to get married alone on a ferry. After that, they return to the church to continue the ceremony with their family and friends.
