Charleston’s Casting Call for Netflix’s ‘Love Is Blind’

Charleston is among five new cities introduced for casting, which also includes Philadelphia, Austin, St. Louis, and New Orleans.
Interested applicants in Charleston are encouraged to take what is being termed “the ultimate leap of faith” in the hopes of finding love on the show. To participate, individuals must complete a rigorous application process that involves a detailed questionnaire consisting of 72 questions.

The concept of “Love Is Blind” is distinctive; it allows singles to date and potentially become engaged without ever seeing one another. Communication occurs through walls in specially designed pods, and after a 10-day interaction period, contestants have the option to propose sight unseen, culminating in a dramatic reveal. If a proposal is accepted, couples embark on a honeymoon adventure and must navigate challenges related to living together and interacting with family.
Since its debut in 2020, the series has aired eight seasons in the U.S. and boasts at least nine couples who are reportedly still together following their experiences on the show. Hosted by Nick and Vanessa Lachey, “Love Is Blind” is produced by the same team behind other reality projects like “Perfect Match” and “The Ultimatum.”
