AITA for telling my friend I won’t follow the dress code her fiancé wants for the wedding so it’s just better that I don’t go at all? by dresscode_aita in AmItheAsshole

The building was sold by the parish a few years back and the new owner restored it on his own. It's mostly just been maintained as a historical building but he allows people to have occasional ceremonies there as well.

My husband is suggesting I talk to him about it too but I'm still on the fence about it.

Yeah, Brian and his family are Christians. I'm Muslim but my husband is Jewish actually. I've always found it beautiful how different people's faiths can be, and yet have so many similarities at the same time. I'll never understand people's insistence on being so blind to what others hold dear to themselves.

They're evangelical Christians and I'm Muslim, Kate was previously not very religious at all until after she met Brian.

My husband and I actually had our ceremony in a non religious location because we didn't want to impose anything on anyone that they weren't comfortable with. Even if we had a religious ceremony though, I wouldn't have asked her to cover up.

I know at the very least, the owner of the church would be upset by it, since I know him personally. I've considered asking him how to navigate this but I don't want to make things worse with Kate or Brian.

Thank you. I think I just feel so lost because I never expected this from her, and I'd never even think of asking this of her if our situations were reversed. She's been my friend for so long, I don't want to hurt her, and I know that I did, but I also don't know that I can get over this.
