Love is in the air! Netflix released the much-awaited Love Is Blind Season 7 finale on Wednesday, Oct. 23, which saw three pairs attempt to tie the knot. Which couples got married in Love is Blind Season 7? Read on to learn if your favorites said “I do” and “I don’t.”
The seventh season of the dating experiment premiered on Oct. 2. With previous seasons in Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas, Seattle, and Houston, this time, all of the contestants were based in Washington, D.C. Twenty-nine singles — ranging from 27 to 37 years old — entered the pods to test whether they could fall in love sight unseen.
Five couples successfully left the pods and were whisked away on a romantic getaway in Cabo (except for Leo Braudy and his ex-fiancée, Brittany Wisniewski, who jetted off to Miami and broke up shortly after). But when everyone returned to the nation’s capital, a few relationships were on the rocks and never recovered before the altar.

Next, Alex Byrd and Tim Godbee ended things after facing numerous obstacles on the show, including a verbal fight in Mexico that was not shown on air but was allegedly so upsetting Tim refused to share a hotel room with Alex. While they tried to make amends, their relationship hit a breaking point after Alex decided to take a nap during his parents’ visit, making Tim feel she was not serious about them. “I’m glad we can at least agree that I don’t ever want to see you again,” he said before storming out of their apartment.
After questioning his maturity for most of their time together, Hannah Jiles broke off her tumultuous relationship with Nick Dorka weeks before walking down the aisle. Just before their split, she confronted Nick after he had a very friendly reunion with his former pod connection, Katie, at an outing with the other couples. Tensions escalated further after a disappointing meeting with Hannah’s close friends, who were unimpressed with Nick.

Which Couples Got Married In The Love Is Blind Season 7 Finale?
Three couples — Taylor and Garrett, Ashley and Tyler, and Marissa and Ramses — made it to the Love is Blind finale, but which ones actually made it down the aisle and said yes?
(Warning: Spoilers ahead for the Season 7 finale of Love Is Blind).
Marissa and Ramses
Relationship status: Broken up
In Episode 12, “Leap of Faith,” Marissa George and Ramses Prashad ended their engagement before reaching their wedding day. Ramses, who had been married before, raised concerns about whether Marissa’s “energy” might be too much for him.
“It’s about your energy and my energy living and coexisting in the same space is what it is,” Ramses told her, adding that he hadn’t felt he’d had any time to himself since returning to D.C.
Through tears, Marissa responded, “You told me you could fall in love with me ’cause of who I am,” but she concluded that Ramses had “already made up” his mind. “I think you shouldn’t have come to this experience,” she said. “It’s very clear that you need to live with someone for a long time before you even marry them.”
Ramses admitted he didn’t expect to feel this way, but Marissa said she anticipated it as soon as he started conversing with other people. “At the end of the day, we couldn’t tell what exactly that would be like in person,” he said, reflecting on how their connection changed from the pods to reality. Marissa called their emotional breakup “the worst day of my life.”
Ashley and Tyler
Relationship status: Married
Ashley Adionser and Tyler Francis happily tied the knot in the Season 7 finale of Love is Blind. Tyler was the first to say “I Do,” and Ashley also said yes in front of their family and close friends.
“Ashley, from the moment I heard your voice, I knew something was special about you. You’ve become my confidant, my joy, and my greatest adventure. You’ve shown me what love truly is,” he said at the altar. “With you, every day is a new chapter, and I can’t wait to fill the pages of our love story together.”
Ashley followed, “My Tyler, the man who makes me feel soft, adored, and protected, heart and body. I’ve never felt a love this pure, yet fierce. I feel like we can do anything in life as long as we have each other,” she said in her vows, calling him her “soulmate.” She promised to “love and respect you as my bestfriend, my future, and my partner in life.”
Taylor and Garrett
Relationship status: Married
Taylor Krause and Garrett Josemans were the second couple to marry in the Season 7 finale of Love is Blind. Garrett was the first to say, “I absolutely do,” and Taylor followed with, “I do,” choosing to spend her life with him.
“To find the connection that we have in the pods and to find that feeling that I hadn’t felt before and that I never thought I would ever find... I did not think it was possible to feel this way,” he said in his vows. “I told you every day since the pods that I love you, and I’ll continue to tell you that every day... You mean the world to me. I promise to always be there for you.”

Taylor responded with her own heartfelt words. “You lovingly challenge me and make me wanna be better every day. And I feel that with you as my partner, there truly isn’t anything we can do,” she said. “You’ve made me realize that I just hadn’t opened up to finding the right person, and now I see an incredibly bright future together.”
“Garrett, you truly are one of a kind. I’m so lucky and so thrilled to have you as the partner for the rest of our days,” she concluded. “I really caught the big fish.”
