According to a source, Teresa went to the church ceremony without her husband Joe, but following the baptism, she arrived with him and their four children in tow an hour late to The Manor restaurant in West Orange, NJ for the reception.

While cameras rolled, Teresa walked up to her brother to congratulate him and he said in an upset tone: "Now you want to congratulate me after all this time? Now you want to be nice to me? Your  husband didn't even come to the church and you show up an hour late!" the source said.

Teresa responded playing dumb: "I just wanted to say hi and congratulations."

Because of a recent history of bad blood between the two siblings, a verbal argument ignited between Teresa and her brother.

And when Joe Giudice got involved a physical altercation broke out between him and Teresa's brother Joey.

A friend who attended the party said: "Once again Teresa had ruined a perfect day. She took memories from the Gorga children and family, and took a day that was not about her and making it about her. And her husband is the crazy one who got up and started to start a physical fight."

"There were punches, vulgarity. It was like a scene out of a movie," another source said of the fight. "Guests were also screaming at the Bravo cameras to get out of there."

There were over 100 people in attendance, and all the family members and most of the guests got involved to help break it up.

Joe Giudice yelled to some people holding him back: "I'll kill that f**king midget!" according to the source.

"Joey Gorga and Joe Giudice were like animals. It was complete chaos," another source told RadarOnline.com.

The guests were mortified by the barbaric behavior.

A person associated with The Manor confirmed to RadarOnline.com that a fight did in fact take place.

"Most of the guests were so upset that their children were traumatized that they left and took their gifts with them, and didn't even have any cake," the other source said.

A family friend at the party told RadarOnline.com, "Melissa is disgusted and humiliated. Her heart is broken for her son on his christening day.

"It was a special day; it was going wonderfully and perfectly and Teresa lost her mind and wanted to make it about her and does what she does best. She couldn't stand all eyes on the Gorga family. It was similar to the Posh runway show situation that aired on Bravo where she started a fight with Danielle Staub.

"Teresa couldn't stand the spotlight on anyone else and she came up and put on her fake thing and started drama on what was a drama-free day."
