A newlywed has told of how they lost upwards of $27,000 and were left 'heartbroken' after more than half of their guests who RSVP'd didn't show up for their big day.

Gray Narvaez-Dragion, an 18-year-old who is transgender and uses they/them pronouns, uploaded a video to TikTok showing multiple tables with no guests sitting at them.

An overlaid caption on the clip, which had more than 5.2 million views at the time of writing, explains: '88 people said yes... not even 40 showed up.'

The video quickly gained traction online, with thousands of commenters expressing their disbelief at Gray's empty wedding scene.

Many viewers slammed the guests for being rude, with one person writing: 'If you can't make it to a wedding TELL THE HOSTS - it's ok! They will save money with their caterer if you give notice! Don't lie!'

Other commenters sympathized with Gray, from the US, and shared similar horror stories from their big days.

Another person said the same thing happened to him and after estimating 100 people would show up for his wedding day, only about 30 were in attendance.

While a third social media user revealed: 'Happened to my sister. We set the room for 80 and not even 30 came. We made the best of it but damn. I would never do that to someone.'

Gray explained in the comment section that because so few people showed up for their nuptials, they were forced to cancel their 'sparkler send off, private dance, [the] dinner [and] cut the entire reception short.'

The DJ also 'felt so bad [that] he made us use the photobooth I hadn't touched and took pics together.'

Gray added: 'Our ceremony made me so happy, but when I looked into the chairs we had set up I realized they were empty. I didn't realize until after... Been in tears for hours over this... I was so heartbroken.'

To make matters worse, they said they fell over during the first dance and their mom 'didn't say a single word until my dad made her.'

After their wedding was cut short, Gray said they sat with their new husband, Nyx, 'in the empty ceremony room together and cried.'

Is that Wendigoon marrying a tranny?

 

[Fomo Hoire]

Don't worry, they'll get that 27k back real fast. They have four dozen charms of fortune that they didn't give all the no-shows.

Narvaez-Dragion also put a lot of thought into the gifts for their guests: custom-made resin magnets and soaps and "spell jars" to manifest fortune, love, and grounding.

(How do you lose money from a no show though? Wouldn't you still have to pay for their food / seat even if they had been there?)

 

[General Emílio Médici]

Good lord what a fucking shitshow. Bit of a dickmove to RSVP but I wonder how many guests even knew what was going on when they got the invite and only realized the insanity later. Given how much trannies lie and fish for pity I wouldn`t even put it past them to have lied about RSVPs.

 

[Weed Eater]

I'm still just shocked that this EIGHTEEN year old not only had the money to do this sort of wedding, but the fact that they got married at eighteen in general is just bonkers to me. The life I was living between the ages of 18-21 I do not take that seriously, and I'm grateful that I didn't personally do something significantly stupid enough to affect the rest of my young years negatively.

These idiots are not only trannies, but they wasted nearly $30k on a wedding that now, whether trannies or not, they will forever have these negative memories associated with the day these two tied their knot. Aside from being young and dumb, dude, just imagine in the next couple of years where these retards are either divorcing, or they're trying to make their marriage "work" in asinine ways because at the end of the day their wedding day turned from a day of "tranny gloating" to "Oh, I guess nobody actually gives enough of a fuck about us trannies". Because that's how it always works, they turn on themselves and each other first.

 

[Clotso Coof]

What are Credit Cards?

I'd be surprised if they have more than 2k credit availability between the two of them. And that's probably maxed out on troon shit.

 

[Bland Crumbs]

What a horrifying couple of...things.

 

[Blacklight]

I would just click 'yes' on the invite to avoid any tranny screeching, and then not show up.

 

[Agamemnon Busmalis]

Apparently a lot of the no-shows were coworkers so they were probably coerced into saying they'd go under threat of retaliation.

(How do you lose money from a no show though? Wouldn't you still have to pay for their food / seat even if they had been there?)

Took a look at the linked article, and holy shit.

"Nyx and I have been through a lot in the past three years of being together," Narvaez-Dragion said. "Flaky people really mean nothing in the grand scheme of things. We still love each other all the same."

Tranny/nonbinary girl is only 18, but she and her "boyfriend/husband" have been together overall for three years. This is the worst kind of Romeo/Juliet story imaginable.

 

[bliblblblbbllb]

I wonder if the RVSP process was just clicking a button on Facebook or something.

I also wonder if some drama happened between when people RVSP'd and the wedding, which they certainly would not bring up for their pity-party tabloid article. Like one or both of them ranted against family members or something. I dunno. This one just strikes me as not having the full story. I can see be disappointed when a few people that said they'd come, didn't come. If more than half of your wedding party didn't come.... I mean....

"Coworkers who said they'd come and then had no intention of coming" is a good guess.

Trannies aren't known for their long-term planning abilities. Or honesty.

 

[xXx: State of the Union]

Yeah, I'm going to take a stab at this and say that the invites were done on Facebook or something, and they're also probably greatly exaggerating the money in the hopes of getting pity donations or something.

Excuse me, I believe the term is over-assimilated alternate.

I wonder if the RVSP process was just clicking a button on Facebook or something.

They showed off a Google spreadsheet to prove the RSVPs exist, so it was probably a Google form.

They really should have spent some money on some moisturizing hand cream and fucking drank some water got damn

I think I'm gonna throw up

Yep, definitely gonna throw up
Imagine looking this fucking haggard at 18 years old

 

[RussianBlonde]

I call bullshit, sounds like a typical Gen Z tranny scam, these people love to capitalize on being victims and start go fund me campaigns. Who the fuck gets married at the age of 18? If majority of people you invited were your age then I'm not surprised nobody showed up.

I don't understand how younger generations are making fun of Boomers for believing in everything that's on the news or on facebook, but they do exactly the same thing when using reddit or TikTok or even YouTube (how many videos are there of people saving a drowning puppy and adopting it and somehow everything is always perfectly captured on video).

And suckers are gonna donate to this poor young tranny couple in love, cruel people didn't show up because they hate trannies, bigots, let's give them money.

 

[Shroom King]

To make matters worse, they said they fell over during the first dance and their mom 'didn't say a single word until my dad made her.'

I kept re-reading this until I realized one of these people uses they/them pronouns. At first I thought the couple were brother and sister and had the same mother.

 

[6MillionCoofs]

Is it really that easy to get lines of credit that large at 18 years old these days?

Yes. Yes it is. Scarily easy.

 

[Billy Bob Dick]

After their wedding was cut short, Gray said they sat with their new husband, Nyx, 'in the empty ceremony room together and cried.'

hahahahaaha
hahahaahahahahahahahaha

That’s the point?

They spent a bunch paying for people that said they would show and didn’t. They wasted money because they paid for a bunch of stuff that is going to waste that they wouldn’t of spent money on if the guests did not say they would come.

 

[CuzinEd]

These people are fucking mentally ill garbage so no one wanted to be seen at that fucking freak show.

Also getting married is fucking Boomer shit. No one does it anymore. Just go fucking live together or "shack up" as Boomers would say. What are they going to do next? Go out and buy fucking Harleys and ride around on them when the weather is nice in the Spring. LOL
