Love Is Blind season 7 stars Taylor Krause and Garrett Josemans are proof that the experiment works — and that the “wifey effect” is real. Taylor and Garrett quickly connected during the experiment over their scientific backgrounds and tattoos inspired by the elements. One thing that Taylor declined to share, however, was her ethnicity, keeping in mind the purpose of Love Is Blind. Garrett thought that Taylor’s hesitance to share her mother’s name was calculated, but they continued to connect in the pods. He proposed to her after she sent him handwritten love letters from her deceased grandparents. They both said “I do” during the season 7 finale, which aired in October 2024.
Garrett started his vows by acknowledging that he didn’t come into the experiment expecting to find his person, but was pleasantly surprised to find a deep connection with Taylor. He expressed his feelings that he had never felt before and felt perfectly matched with her. Despite Taylor’s hesitance to share certain personal information during the pods, Garrett overcame his doubts and proposed to her after learning more about her and falling in love with her quirks. They even went on a whirlwind vacation to Mexico where their bond grew even stronger before returning home to Washington, D.C.
However, roadblocks emerged in their relationship as Taylor learned that Garrett had been in touch with a former girlfriend, leading to a brief misunderstanding between the two. Taylor made it clear that Garrett should not have responded to his ex at all, but Garrett reassured her that it didn’t mean anything to him. While there were initial tensions, they were able to work through their issues and get their relationship back on track. Garrett later traveled with Taylor to California to meet her family in another effort to strengthen their bond.
Despite the challenges they faced, Taylor and Garrett ultimately tied the knot on the same anniversary date as both of their parents. During their wedding, Taylor expressed her love and admiration for Garrett, noting his soul and sense of humor. The couple showed their commitment to each other by exchanging vows and declaring their love for each other in front of family and friends. As the season progressed, viewers noticed Garrett’s “glow-up” with his hair and wardrobe, leading to speculation about the “wifey effect” and whether Taylor was responsible for it. Both Taylor and Garrett opted to troll the speculation without confirming or denying the theories.
In the midst of this, the season 7 reunion promises to reveal whether Taylor and Garrett are still together, leaving fans eager to discover the fate of their love story. The couple’s journey on Love Is Blind demonstrates that the experiment can lead to lasting connections and real emotional bonds, overcoming obstacles along the way. Their experience highlights the complexities and challenges of forming relationships in a unique and unconventional setting, showing that love truly can be blind when two people are willing to take a chance and open their hearts to each other.
