A bride left her groom hanging at the altar after admitting she wanted someone more 'on her wavelength'.
Sara Carton left Love Is Blind viewers stunned as she revealed some bombshell news at the altar on her wedding day.
The reality star crushed her groom's hopes and dreams as she told Ben Mezzenga that she couldn't marry him.
For those not in the loop, the reality series sees single men and women meet, fall in love and get engaged - all before they actually see each other in person.

Anyway, Netflix fans watched on as American Sara walked down the aisle, before admitting to Ben: "I love you so much but I've always wanted a partner to be on the same wavelength.
"And so today I can't. I'm sorry but I don't want that to be misunderstood, I still love you and everything about you is amazing. And I care about you so much."
The groom, seemingly trying to salvage the moment, responded: "I love you so much, and I care about you too, and I want to stay with you, and keep growing our relationship if you'll let me."

In an awkward moment for everyone involved, Sara then said: "We'll see, we'll talk about that."
The 28-year-old's decision ultimately boiled down to their differing political views, and the two not sharing the same values.
"I know that the connection we have is so real, and my heart is there," she added. "But we talked about a lot of the values that I hold so close to my heart. Making this decision, my mind is telling me I can’t."
Later in the show, after walking back up the aisle - alone - Sara clarified what she meant at the altar.

Speaking to her closest people in the car, Sara admitted: "I remember, like, I asked him about, like, Black Lives Matter, and I’m no expert, but, like, when I asked him about it, he was like, ‘I guess I never really thought too much about it'."
Referring to her former fiancé, she added: "That affected me, especially in our own city, like, how could it not? How did it not make you think about something?"
Furthering her concerns, she said: "I asked him too, like, what his church’s views are [about the LGBTQ community], and he said he didn’t know."

The bride described his views as 'traditional', but wanted a bit more 'depth' from her partner: "I told that to Ben, and he doesn’t really have much to say about it, you know? I want somebody to think about that stuff."
Speaking to Glamour following the show dropping on Netflix, Sara revealed she is, indeed, single and is ready to see Ben at the reunion.
