SOUTH WINDSOR, Conn. -- If Adrienne Samen ever forgets the details of her wedding reception, the police will be able to provide her with an official account, including a photograph.
The 18-year-old North Haven woman was arrested Saturday night after police said she "flipped out" at the Mill on the River Restaurant, cursed workers who asked some of her guests to leave the bar and then stormed out of the establishment.
According to Helmar Wolf, a co-owner of the restaurant, the bride and groom began to argue in the parking lot, where the bride shouted, "I hate you!" Soon after, Wolf said, the angry young woman "started throwing wedding cake and smashed vases of flowers."
Samen continued cursing and jumped spread eagle onto a car as it was leaving the parking lot, Wolf said. She eventually fell off and the car left.
Police were called about 7 p.m. and found Samen walking along Route 30 in her wedding dress. Witnesses told police she was intoxicated.
The officers tried to talk to Samen, but the woman made an obscene gesture and kept walking along the busy road, yelling at people in a car who had come from the wedding party and were driving slowly beside her, trying to calm her down, police said.
The officers spent about 40 minutes trying to reason with the bride, but finally gave up and arrested her when she started darting into traffic, shouting at people, said Sgt. Matthew D. Reed.
After placing the 5-foot-1, 87-pound woman into the cruiser, an officer questioned the wedding guests in their car. Reed said that during the questioning the officer heard a "thump, thump, thump" coming from the cruiser.
When he turned around, he saw Samen kicking at the cruiser's window and door, Reed said. The officer went back to the cruiser and tried to put a seat belt on Samen, who tried to bite him, Reed said.
Samen was taken to police headquarters, where she was charged with breach of peace and third-degree criminal mischief. She was released about 10:30 p.m. after posting $1,000 bail. She could not be reached Monday.
Reed said Samen refused to cooperate at police headquarters.
"The last thing we want to do is arrest a bride on her wedding night, but this was a situation where she had to be taken under control," Reed said.
Samen is scheduled to appear Aug. 28 in Manchester Superior Court.
