Nope. The word you are looking for is "stupid people". They aren't part of the wedding. They are being contracted to make a cake, a floral arrangement, pizzas, etc. They don't have the right to discriminate against their customers for any reason, religious or otherwise. And that is the bottom line. Providing services is not a matter of approval or disapproval. It is a matter of providing services.

Should a Christian Scientist florist refuse to deliver flowers to a hospital? Should a Jehovah's Witness florist be able to do the same because a transfusion might have been done? What if someone is a member of a Christian Identity sect? Should they be allowed to refuse to do business with "mud people"?

This is nothing more than allowing people to impose their religion, and even their own interpretation of their religion, on others. This is not what the Founders had in mind when they wrote the Constitution.
