A bride was viciously assaulted by her groom on their wedding night because he couldn't take her dress off.
Amy Dawson, 22, married her long term partner Gavin Golightly in her dream wedding in August last year.
But the bride's dream day soon turned into a nightmare.
The newlyweds retired to their room after a reception with friends and family following the party at a country hotel.
It was then, only hours after making their marriage vows, that
29-year-old Golightly launched a terrifying attack on his bride when she
asked for help in taking her wedding dress off.
The argument broke out after he was unable to help her out of the
dress, and he then threw her to the floor before launching the attack
that left her with a cut eyebrow and a bruised face and chest.
Golightly claimed that he had been drugged before the attack and
could not remember any of the incident, but he later admitted a single
count of assault causing actual bodily harm at Peterlee Magistrates Court.
