Here's Where to Get Those Love is Blind Gold Wine Glasses You See in Every Scene
Love Is Blind, a new dating show, premiered on Netflix on Thursday, February 13.
Fans are commenting about the show's ubiquitous metal wine glasses.
Want to drink like you're Jessica Batten of Love Is Blind? Here's where to get one of the chalices.
Game of Thrones had a Starbucks cup. And Love Is Blind, a new unscripted reality show on Netflix, has chalices.
Once out of the pods and into Atlanta, these copper wine glasses pop up in nearly every scene of Love Is Blind. They're in dates on matching rocking chairs. Dates on lakefronts. Deep emotional discussions. The bridal shop made a slight revision, offering copper champagne glasses instead of the usual wine glasses.
In the universe of Love Is Blind, it's not a date if there are no metallic alcohol holders (and it's not an engagement unless it happened in a pod).
For the conspiracy theorists among us, the cups may be part of of a plot to make us believe, subliminally, we need copper wine glasses in our cabinets. In that case, Netflix's ploy is working, big time.
As with many dating TV shows, alcohol, that great social lubricant, is a near ubiquitous presence on Love Is Blind. During their time in the pods, contestants had access to any drink they desired (apparently, Kenny Barnes's drink of choice was Bailey's).
Free flowing libations help explain how many grown adults got engaged to complete strangers before ever meeting them.
However, in an interview with OprahMag.com, creator Chris Coelen assures us that contestants were never pressured to drink. "We wanted them to make the decisions and them to control their destiny. It wasn't like, 'Hey, guys! Cocktail party time. Whatever you wanna do, do it," Coelen says.
With that in mind, did the Love Is Blind cast mates want to drink out of copper wine glasses, or were they handed the copper wine glasses? The mystery is perplexing some viewers of Love Is Blind.
I am unhinged about the metallic wine glasses from love is blind. Like why??

Whether the abundance of glasses is the result of chance or conspiracy, the effect is the same: We want 'em in our lives. Bonus points if any of the cups come with Cameron Hamilton included. With these copper cups in our hands, anything seems possible. Want to be imbued with the cunning and charm of Queen Elizabeth I? Pour some red wine into a copper chalice and stare at people with a cocked eyebrow. Want to unwind with reality TV, and feel classy while doing so? Yep, you guessed it: Wine! Glass!
Netflix’s Love Is Blind almost had me convinced I needed metallic wine glasses to fully understand 😂

Does Atlanta only have gold wine glasses or is this a marketing scheme on Love is blind? Because it’s working and I’m ordering some right now.

Drinking like a cast member of Love Is Blind is one click away. That said, if you're hoping to be more like a Game of Thrones character, then these etched copper plated goblets are literally your only option.
