A pair of newlyweds have told how they cried their eyes out after a wedding disaster.
They were left heartbroken when more than half of their guests didn't bother showing up to their reception.
Bride Gray said she was left "feeling like that kid that would always be left" as she ended the party early.

Gray and partner Nyx, from the US, invited 88 guests including family, friends and colleagues to celebrate with them.
She even made a spreadsheet listing all RSVPs and booked a venue big enough to hold the party, Daily Star reports.
She told how: "Most of these people were my co-workers and they were so excited and were talking to me about it for months."
But in the end, only a few guests turned up.
In a TikTok video, which has since gone viral with over 8 million views, she said her wedding was "ruined" as she looked at the empty room with only a few guests around.
She said: "88 people said yes and not even 40 of them showed up. Feeling like that kid that would always be left out right now."
A clip shows her looking at her watch as the camera pans across the empty hall and she says: "It was supposed to end in an hour. Picking up my own wedding early, it's not happening."
Gray mentioned in the captions that she and her groom sat in the empty room crying as they had to end the reception early.
"Nyx's family immediately left after pictures, my mum didn't say a single word to me until my dad made her.
"I cancelled my dream send-off, cancelled dinner at my favourite place, the DJ felt so bad he made us use the photobooth I hadn't touched and took pictures together," she said.
Viewers felt for Gray and some suggested to throw her an alternative wedding with the TikTok community.
One wrote: "Let's have a wedding re-do! We are all coming!"
A second shared: "Just have another wedding with us, we will bring the energy unlike these guys."
A third noted: "The guests look so bored like, these are not your people. You and your spouse deserve people who look happy for bid days like this!"
