Brockel's fiancée told NBC10 the groom then went outside to try and calm him down. About 30 more guests came outside and a heated argument ensued which then led to a brawl in the street.
During the brawl, Brockel allegedly assaulted several guests who were trying to help his fiancée.
Authorities say dozens of people were involved overall, including four people who suffered serious injuries and were taken to hospitals. Several other people had minor injuries.
Brockel was charged with aggravated assault and other counts.
