One of the couple, @grayanxiety, shared a video on TikTok showing the empty wedding venue filled with tables for guests who never showed up.
''88 people said yes... not even 40 showed up,'' a caption on the video read.
The video has amassed over five million views at the time of this report.
While the couple's situation is heartbreaking, another bride also created a similar situation.
Speaking with Legit.ng on the incident, Ogbe Anne Charles, the CEO of Roli's Cake and Confectionery, described it as a very complicated situation.
"I think the groom or the couple must have done something wrong for people not to have attended their wedding. This is a very very complicated situation," Anne said.
