It was a dream wedding, a romantic ceremony, with the
bride looking resplendent in white. Yet it turned into an
abject nightmare for the beautiful bride, 22-year-old Amy
Dawson.
After a delightful ceremony in St. Mary’s Church in the
village of West Rainton in County Durham, England, the
reception for Dawson and her new husband, her long-
term partner and father of her child, Gavin Golightly,
in nearby Beamish Hall was full of love and laughter.
Then, at 12:55 a.m. the following morning, the newlyweds
decided to retire to bed and Dawson asked Golightly to
help take off her wedding dress. Instead, he attacked her
and she thought she was going to die.

Yeah that's disgusting. Love is wonderful but I truly wish both sexes would be more careful when choosing a partner. Good luck to the next woman who goes with him...

She mentions something along the lines of "a new start..." from what?
I bet this has happened before, and he thought he could get away with it because he most likely has the mindset of 'she's mine now'. Alcohol was definitely a major factor, but as the old saying goes drunk words and actions are sober thoughts. He should have been given jail time.
When I first met Gavin, he was lovely, I couldn’t fault him. He was caring and loving, and when we found we were having baby, we were delighted. I fell pregnant after eight months, but almost straight away, Gavin became controlling and manipulative. It was like walking on eggshells. When he lashed out at me on my wedding night, I thought I was going to die. I was terrifed. He looked like he was going to kill me.

Time for a divorce....run and don't look back! I hope and pray the woman does heal.
Psyco's like her (soon to be ) x-husband are very good actors...until they think they have the power...then their true colors show.

Hey, macho Troglodytes like this guy have enough trouble unhooking bra straps, let alone using a crochet hook to remove the stitches of a wedding dress that the bride was apparently sewn into!
