There have been eight seasons of hit Netflix dating show, and throughout the seasons numerous couples have walked down the aisle - but not every couple has walked away married.
We know that Love Is Blind weddings are legally binding, so the brides and grooms have to be 100% sure that they want to be with the person before them for life before they say ‘yes’ - despite the fact they only met little more than a month prior to their big day.
With so much at stake, and so many emotions crammed in to such a short space of time, it’s unsuprising that although some couples do take a chance on love - and are still together to this day - there are some who just can’t take that step. In some cases, both fiancée and fiancé say no, but in others one is completely blindsided when they say ‘yes’ and their spouse-to-be says ‘no’. Either way though, the scenes are shocking, heart-breaking and painful to watch.
Take a look through our gallery below to see nine of the most painful weddings in LIB history, throughout all eight seasons.

5. Zanab and Cole
Season three Cole Barnett and Zanab Jaffrey caused controversy during season three, or rather he did. In one of the most talked about moments of the series, it was alleged that Cole questioned his fiancée when she decided to eat two small oranges which have the brand name Cuties. He also rated her physical appearance and told her she was a nine out of ten. Despite all this, their wedding day went ahead. Zanab’s vows came first at the altar. She delivered a brutal speech, telling him: "You have disrespected me, you have insulted me, you have critiqued me, and for what it is worth, you have single-handedly shattered my self-confidence. And I hate that you have had that kind of effect on me. And the messed up thing is I know I love you, but everything in me in the logical part of my brain tells me that love shouldn’t feel this way. Love shouldn’t hurt like that. I can’t marry you, and I don’t." Afterwards, Cole told producers: "“She had me fooled big time. I knew we were not perfect but that? It’s one of the worst experiences of my life." Photo by Netflix. | Netflix Photo: Netflix
6. Bartise Bowden and Nancy Rodriguez
Bartise broke his bride Nancy's heart when he said 'I do not' on their wedding day in season three. She spoke first and said 'yes' to him, but when it came to his turn he said 'no'. Nancy immediately began crying and left the room. She was comforted by her family, including her mum and her brother, who were also expressing some negative opinions about Bartise. When the couple reunited to speak about what had just happened, Nancy's mum burst in and angrily told Bartise he had no right to try to speak to her daughter. After being asked to by Nancy, who wanted a moment to speak to Bartise, she left - but she quickly returned with Nancy's brother and they both gave Bartise a piece of their mind in a very heated and emotionally charged exchange.

7. Micah Lussier and Paul Peden
Micah and Paul were the only couple in the season four finale who didn't get married. They both had some reservations ahead of their big day, but things looked promising. Micah was asked first if she would take Paul to be her husband, but she requested he answered first. Paul said he didn't think they should get married, leaving Micah to walk back down the aisle along in tears. Micah's best friend was then heard laughing and saying that was how she wanted it to go. Micah later said she asked Paul to go first because she needed reassurance from him and if he'd have said 'yes' then she would too. To make matters worse, in his piece to camera after the wedding Paul said the reason he said 'no' was because he struggled to see Micah as a mum. Photo by Netflix. | Netflix Photo: Netflix
8. Stacy Snyder and Izzy Zapata
Stacy and Izzy seemed to be getting on so well at first during season five. They had a great time on their honeymoon, but once they moved in together differences in financial attitudes caused tensions. Stacy made it clear she expected a lavish lifestyle. On their wedding day, Izzy said ‘I do’. Stacy, however, said ‘I do not’, telling him she thought they needed more time to resolve their issues before making the ultimate commitment. They still shared a passionate kiss, and even dated for a week after their almost wedding - but then they split up. Photo by Netflix. | Netflix Photo: Netflix
