Kalina and her fiancé had been together for 9 years and engaged for four.

Their wedding was delayed due to the pandemic, but they finally set a date for October this year.

Excitedly, Kalina sent out 100 invitations, inviting friends and family to celebrate their love.

This is our entrance to our Masqurade ball. The Masqurade ball that I have talked EXCESSIVELY about for the last 10 months. The same ball that I not only digitally invited over 75 people to. But ALSO spent money to send 25 beautiful invitations out to. FIVE PEOPLE SHOWED UP!!!!!!! Like, are you kidding me!?!? As you see in the video, we enter the venue. And no one is there. The invite said 1pm. My mom messaged me at 1:15 that no one was there. My husband and I finally showed up at 2oclock, to 5 people. In a venue planned for 40. I dreamed that I would walk in to a bunch of people cheering us on. Hooting and hollering for us in celebration……but all you see is a woman trying to hold herself together because she had NO idea how to deal with her venue being almost completely empty. All the wasted food and drinks. All the empty tables and chairs. Every moment of my reception changed to adapt. Did we still make the most of it?? You bet your SWEET @$$ we did. But did this video just take all the good moments and shoot them out of the water for a second, F$&K yea it did 😔 It just makes me think, like, why? What did we do? Am I that bad of a person? What did my husband ever do to deserve any of this? Why couldn’t we matter enough for people to show up? I still have “friends” that haven’t even messaged me to congratulate me or tell me why they didn’t come. It truly makes me sick. I honestly can’t wrap my head around this yet. But all I know is, I have my man. My baby. And family that shows up when I need them. And for that, I will be thankful ❤️ #FAIL #fyp #whereisthelove

However, only five guests showed up at the venue, which was a huge disappointment for her.

The emotional moment was captured in her video, where she walked into an almost empty venue with just three people present.

Kalina expressed her shock at the situation, saying, “FIVE PEOPLE SHOWED UP!!!!!!! Like, are you kidding me!?!?”

She had envisioned a joyful celebration surrounded by loved ones, but instead, she faced a near-empty room.

Kalina later posted a follow-up video to understand what went wrong.

In it, she addressed comments from viewers asking why so many people did not attend.

She explained that she had checked in with guests the week before the wedding, and many had confirmed they would attend.

However, when the day arrived, the turnout was drastically lower than expected.

Kalina mentioned that her mother had prepared food for 40 people, which would now go to waste.

She admitted that she was left with many unanswered questions about why people did not show up.

“I checked in with everyone the week of, and at least 20 people had gotten back to me saying that they had an outfit and that they were coming,” she admitted.

Kalina went on: “And the biggest question is why? And I don’t know if I could answer that.

“I would tell you, but no, I haven’t really received a lot of messages explaining why people weren’t there or giving me excuses.

And I’m kind of thankful for that,” she claimed.

Despite the disappointing turnout, Kalina emphasized the importance of her immediate family.

She stated: “I have my man. My baby. And family that shows up when I need them. And for that, I will be thankful.”

Concluding, the newly-wed said: “For the most part, we’ve done a lot of deleting and re-evaluating our lives and just spending a lot of time appreciating what We have and what we had.”

Social media reactions

The viral video has resonated with many viewers, leading to a mix of supportive and critical comments online.

However, many supporters defended her and shared their own stories of weddings that did not go as planned.

They noted that what truly matters is the love shared between the couple, regardless of the number of guests present.

Now you know who is the real people your life, one user said.

Very sad, my family didn’t show up to my son’s FUNERAL. NOW THAT is pain. I learned I do not need them anymore, the second user commented.

I felt bad for you and your husband, it’s not easy to prepare wedding even small wedding or whatever, sometimes people are so selfish, no consideration, insensitive, the third user said.

The fact that I’ve felt sad to not be invited to a wedding, and to see people RSVP and not even show up??? Another user wrote.

Those people are not friends girl, someone user said.
