A 40-year old groom, Jacob Brookes, was charged to court on Thursday in southern Australia after being arrested at his own wedding each time a church minister refused to perform the ceremony.
The Police was called to a Uniting Church in the suburbs of the town of Adelaide in February after the groom became upset at the minister's refusal to carry out the wedding, saying the man was too drunk.
Brookes, a musician, who was charged with disorderly behavior and resisting arrest, denied doing anything wrong.
He told the court that he had his stag (bachelors) night before the wedding, but denied he was too drunk to go through with the marriage.
Brooks insisted “I only consume two beers and two shots of whiskey. “That’s not drunk”, he said.
He said he still hoped to win the heart of his intended bride. “I miss her to bits … she’s always in my heart.”
