Article from Today's NY Post....LOL
She's giving all of the BTB's on this site a bad name!!
August 19, 2003 -- A Connecticut bride from hell wound up in a cell after flying into a rage at her reception, lobbing wedding cake at her new hubby, smashing flower vases - then trying to bite the cop who tried to cart her off, witnesses and police said.
'Everything seemed to go fine until 4 in the afternoon, when the bar was closed,' recalled Helmar Wolf, co-owner of The Mill on the River restaurant in South Windsor, where the posh Saturday reception was held for guests including Marines just back from Iraq.
Wolf said the sordid saga started when restaurant workers first noticed some members of the tipsy bridal party sneaking behind the closed bar to try and nab one more nip for the road.
They were warned to stop, and they did - briefly, he said.
'But after about three minutes, there was somebody else behind there grabbing a bottle of Grey Goose,' a pricey vodka, he told The Post last night.
The pickled pack was chased away again. That's when an irate bridesmaid confronted the staff and griped that they should be allowed to continue drinking, Wolf said.
She then tried to get behind the bar again - even gloatingly making an obscene gesture to the security camera above it, he said.
But what happened next 'could have been on 'Jerry Springer,' ' Wolf said.
Wolf said he heard screaming outside his window and looked out to see enraged bride Adrienne Samen, 18, of North Haven, spewing obscenities at her 'very nice' new husband, a Marine cadet.
'She started taking out the wedding cake [from the car] and smashing it on the ground. She took all the vases out and threw them against the building. There was glass all over the parking lot,' he said.
'Then she dove on top of the car, landing on the hood. She fell to the ground.'
This is where things 'got a little bit out of hand,' Wolf said.
An enraged Samen furiously began walking away down the road - with her wedding dress over her head, he said.
Wolf said that's when he called the cops.
But Samen wasn't ready to go without a fight, police said.
Swearing as they cuffed her and got her into a cruiser, the feisty teen then tried to bite the arm of one officer, they said.
Samen was eventually charged with disorderly conduct and breach of peace.
'[The police] provided her with a bridal suite for the evening - at the town jail,' Wolf quipped.
The belligerent bride was released later that night after posting $1,000 bond, cops said.
She was reportedly already on her honeymoon with her new hubby yesterday.
And here she is in her mug shot (or should I say Wedding Album)...you can't see it in this picture, but it's in the Post....she's wearing a beautiful strapless gown.

Her poor husband. 18 is kind of young. Obviously alcohol and youth are not a good mix. Technically, she is not even old enough to drink.

You know what's funny, 18 seems to young for people to be getting married to all of us...NOW. But, my mom was married at 17, my best friends mom at 17...and I know quite a few others whose parents were married at 18, 19, 20....In the year 2003, 18 does in fact seem to young to get married, but the world is a very different place than it was 30-40 years ago, as are the ways and means in which our children are brought up.
This trash definitely needed another 10 years at least.
