The much-anticipated finale of Love Is Blind finally aired last night to the delight of fans.

The 10-episode Netflix series has followed five budding relationships to the end to see who loved each other enough to actually tie the knot. Following their unorthodox engagements, Gigi and Damian, Cameron and Lauren, Ken and Kelly, Amber and Barnett, and Jessica and Mark all walked down the aisle last night.

While some marriages were doomed from the start — and resulted in some not-so-surprising results (ahem, Jessica and Mark) — there were some shocking results. For example, Damian rejecting Gigi in front of her family and friends after she poured her heart out was a huge gut-punch.

But nothing was more surprising than Ken actually finding his voice after Kelly shockingly said “I don’t” at the altar. So here are the best reaction to the messy-ass Love Is Blind finale.

The dramatic finale opened where the episode nine cliffhanger left off — with Damian crying and unsure of whether to actual marry Giannina. Viewers quickly learned that Damian’s answer was a solid no, claiming that Gigi’s up-and-down tendencies were just too risky for him. This resulted in Gigi running out of the wedding hall and into the streets in tears while the Maury-esque cameramen followed her closely.

But for anyone who has watched the series, Damian’s choice to not follow through with marriage is actually kinda warranted. Based on how Giannina treated him once the pair returned from Mexico, it was obvious that their relationship was never really going to work.

In what was a surprise to absolutely no one, Jessica and Mark did not get married last night. As Jessica has expressed constantly throughout the series, she just didn’t feel strongly enough about Mark. But in peak cruel behaviour, she still led Mark along, had a full-blown wedding in the fanciest hall of the night, and left Mark high and dry at the altar.

Jessica said she “wasn’t sorry” for saying no and admit that she’s too much of a “realist” and was “never going to get married.” However, if it were Barnett at the end of the aisle, we all know that Jessica would be living in wedded bliss right now.

The most shocking move of the night came from the series most boring couple, Kenny and Kelly. The pair rarely had screen time and Kenny really said no more than five words the entire series. However, after Kelly rejected him in front of their guests, Kenny finally found his voice.

Kenny told the cameramen off for filming him after his rejection and Kelly explained that while she does love Kenny, she basically isn’t in love with him. Thinking of him more as a “best friend” than a husband, Kelly said that she wanted to be “infatuated” with the person she marries — and considering the pair didn’t even have sex in their six weeks together, Kenny was definitely not the one for good ol’ Kels.

As for Amber, people were just glad that she succeeded in bagging a man who would take on her and all her debt. Amber and Barnett ended up being only one of two couples who said “I do” last night. After a moment of hesitation, Barnett decided to say yes to Amber and honestly? It was actually quite cute.

The final couple to have their wedding last night were lovebirds Lauren and Cameron. Cameron, totally infatuated with Lauren, immediately said yes and Lauren paused for a moment before doing the same. The pair had a beautiful wedding where everyone cried, and now all anyone can talk about is finding a Cameron of their own.

Luckily not is all over for ‘Love Is Blind’, with a reunion special set to air on March 5.
