Churches have got to be careful about allowing their buildings to be used for weddings other than by their congregation or faith. If for example they rent out their church sanctuary for wedding services to other people, then they are very close to being a public accomadation, like a hotel’s ballroom. As a public accommadation they are subject to the non-discrimination laws of the state. In that instance the church, by law, might have to rent out the sanctuary for a same sex wedding if asked. The church should be be very thoughtful before going into the business of renting out its sanctuary for weddings or other purpuses.
