A GROOM who was arrested after a minister refused to marry him because he was allegedly too drunk was inconsolable yesterday.
Still wearing the torn suit in which he was supposed to be married, Semaphore singer and artist Jake Brookes, 40, said yesterday that “all I wanted to do was see my woman”.
As revealed exclusively on Advertiser.com.au , police arrested Brookes after they were called to a disturbance at the Semaphore Uniting Church, on Semaphore Road at Exeter in Adelaide’s west, about 2pm on Saturday.
“I have been dreaming for days and days and days about her beautiful wedding dress,” a tearful and bruised Brookes told Ten Eyewitness News.
“All I wanted was my woman to feel she was queen of the day, man.”

He said she was his Queen, looks like she wanted a King not the court jester.
They say he turned up drunk and wearing a ripped suit 🙂

i guess it depends too whether this is normal behaviour for him which his bride should have expected or whether it was out of character due to nervousness or his bucks party. i used to work with a woman who was pushed into marrying as in her early twenties because she was pregnant. she walked out of the reception and filed for divorce next day. she had fulfilled what the famil wanted and married.
