Ready for a delicious new way to celebrate love this Valentine’s Day? Envy™ apples today announced the Love at First Bite contest. Get all the juicy details from the team at Envy apples below:

The contest combines the ultimate apple experience with the ultimate wedding experience as couples compete for a $50,000 grand prize package. Contest participants will make a video sharing why they deserve an Envy-able wedding day and what makes their love story unique – all inspired by the new romantic comedy “Marry Me” from Universal Pictures, opening in theaters and streaming only on Peacock this Valentine’s Day.

Inspired by “Marry Me” the movie, the Envy™ Love at First Bite contest offers a grand prize of $50,000!

“Marry Me” may be set in the Big Apple, but fans all over the U.S. and Canada (excluding Quebec) can celebrate their own love stories by entering the Love at First Bite contest. And, they’ll enjoy Envy’s sweet, sophisticated flavor as they do – in their entry videos, couples will carve a perfect heart shape into an Envy apple using only their mouths. Teamwork has never been so delicious.

“The Love at First Bite contest is a chance to savor small moments – with the beautifully balanced sweetness of Envy™ apples as well as the romance of ‘Marry Me’ and so many real-life love stories,” said Cecilia Flores Paez, Head of Marketing, North America, T&G Global. “We’re excited for the opportunity to share the love and help one couple write their next chapter with the ultimate wedding experience.”
