Spoiler warning: The “Love Is Blind” season 4 finale will be discussed in this post and in great detail in the podcast. There will be spoilers! Be prepared!

When Alanis memorably sang, “It’s like raaayyy-ee-aaainnnn on your wedding day,” she was trying to illustrate the concept of irony. She was mistaken, of course. Rain on your wedding day is not ironic; as Tiffany’s friend points out during a mid-downpour ceremony, it simply means good luck. And the good luck, this sodden Seattle wedding day, belonged to all of us “Love Is Blind” nerds, who were about to view the most shocking and joyous finale this show has delivered yet.

At every turn, we were caught wrong-footed — surprised by the yeses and the nos, surprised by the hidden tensions revealed and surprised by our own watering eyes when a couple said “I do.” Everything we thought we knew about this show (well, almost everything) had to be reevaluated. Were we wrong about most of these couples all along??

We’re not sure which moment left us most slack-jawed (Kwame’s decision? Micah’s decision to punt the first response to Paul? Paul’s post-ceremony words? Zack and Bliss’s final choice?), but it was hard not to finish the finale feeling like both the show and, perhaps, some of the cast themselves were withholding a lot of important information about these relationships. And yet it was still a surprisingly moving finale, with at least two weddings that left us verklempt in a good way.

In this recap, we discuss every twist and turn of this wedding day episode, what we missed about these couples all season and what we love about (some of) them, and who we think should stay together — plus, our updated enemies-to-friends ranking. Our live reunion recap will be coming next week, so stay tuned!
