Champagne Problems is shot by Jose David Montero, while Kathryn Himoff is the editor. Ryan Shore has composed the score. In an interview, Mina Kelly spoke about what drew her to the character. She said that Sydney wasn't looking for a guy in France.

"That was a big part of what drew me to it. It was that her whole goal wasn’t to meet a guy. In fact, it was the opposite of her goal and it just kind of happened and I think that’s sort of true to life, isn’t it? When you least expect it, you end up sort of meeting the love of your life sometimes."

She added,

"That’s the funny rub. Like they tell you, just stop looking for it and it’ll find you. That was one of my favorite parts about this: she had her own sort of life, her sister, and her own sort of world that she was focusing on, and then this guy shows up and throws everything off."

Champagne Problems is streaming on Netflix.
