But they are not participants, they are vendors plying their trade. They provide goods and services, not rituals or rites. They bake and provide floral arraignments and photographs, they are not required to pass judgments or provide a mercantile imprimatur or approval.There's harm in making people participate in something immoral to them. That's the bottom line here, you simply don't give a fuck about them.The couple may not have as many options for vendors. They may truly desire the wares of a particular vendor for the quality and value?First, no harm befalls a merchant when servicing same sex weddings and affairs.
Also, no harm befalls weddings when a merchant refuses to bake them a cake. True fact.
But, in the end, the couple is made to feel less than. And there's harm in that.
Calling such vendors "participants" exceeds the mandate of services provided.
