Photos and video of the aftermath of a brawl involving bride and groom at a downtown Edmonton bar over the weekend are getting a lot of attention online.
The Canadian couple had continued with their wedding festivities at a downtown bar in Edmonton when things went downhill.
Matt Machado, man who filmed the incident, told CBC News it was like a scene from an Spaghetti Western film.
"And then all of a sudden we see the smoke pit doors just, like, blow open. Like, you know, in the old Western movies, when a big fight happens and the doors just explode open and everybody piles out? Then security's got this one guy in a headlock and they tumble down the stairs," he said.
The bride is just like following behind, just swinging."
Security got the brawl settled outside while about 100 people in the bar looked on. With the bride pinned against the wall by bouncers, the groom was led away in another direction.

Soon after, police showed up, lights flashing and sirens wailing. A large crowd in the bar pressed against the windows for a better look.
Edmonton Police said on Monday the bride was charged with assault while the groom was charged with mischief.
Onlookers told they were not exactly sure what caused the fight but suspected someone in the wedding party made contact with a staff member and punched a window resulting in bar security stepping in.
