A magical day for one bride turned horrible in a matter minutes. According to reports, 48 year old Anita Brooks was getting married a few days ago. All was well until the reception came along. That's when the bride's 45 year old brother Rontae Stokes got into a verbal argument with his sister the bride. He then started beating on her and causing a disturbance. After beating her he was escorted from the facility by other wedding party members that included his 65 year old mother, a niece, his brother-in-law, and a bridesmaid, to which he started beating on them as well. He admitted to police that he pushed his sister to the ground. Now he's looking at 5 counts of battery which are considered felonies because of a prior felony he has. He also got a criminal mischief charge for throwing a ceramic lawn chair into a glass door as he was being removed from the reception.
