Uncomfortable? You just got paid hundreds of dollars to bake a cake. You attend to its presentation. You don't have to marry them, you're not the one getting hitched. In my view, your religious beliefs belong in church, not in your business. These people have difficulties with boundaries. They're always encroaching on others' territory.
