I (26M) was the plus 1 for a wedding that my roomie (27F) was in as a bridesmaid. I had previously met the couple (M&F 28) a few times & they seemed fine. I brought a pack of 5mg gummies that I would take during the reception & my roomie knew I was bringing them. The wedding was small, about 60 ppl. I knew going in that not everyone was allowed plus 1s, but my roomie was as she’s in the bridal party. The ceremony was nice & when we moved to the reception, I was seated with 3 bridesmaids & 2 of the bride’s college friends (20s MF couple). The wedding party left for pics and some food was brought out, so I took a gummy. I offered some to the couple I was left with, & they politely declined, & I thought that was the end of that. Some time passed & the wedding party returned. Right away, the couple engaged in hushed conversation with the bridesmaid sitting opposite me. I couldn’t hear over the music. The couple’s vibe changed & while we were talking as a table they would start responding to things I was saying with “oh, I wonder what other fun things you’re taking” & “don’t let the kids here see you’re doing that” in snarky-ish tones. I became uncomfortable, so I excused myself & stepped out onto the patio. Soon after my roomie stepped out & joined me. She informed me that the table started talking about me when I left, and the couple was appalled to find out I brought gummies to the reception. They expressed their distaste for drugs that aren’t “FDA approved” & are also apparently christian, which became clear when they stated that “this was a Christian wedding & [I] should be more respectful in not bringing ‘addictive drugs’ around a celebration with kids present”. My roomie thought they were overreacting, but the other bridesmaids agreed with them & debated kicking me out. I was embarrassed & didn’t realize I would cause such a reaction, as they had an open bar & plenty of the people were already buzzed, that couple included. We returned & I apologized, and tried to explain that the gummies are legal, & not addictive like alcohol or other drugs. The man seemed to think that was a jab at him, as he was already pretty drunk. He interrupted me & said “you don’t get to tell others how much they can drink at a wedding, especially when you’re a plus 1 & we were actually invited.” The convo died, & we were dismissed for dinner. I could hear that couple a few people behind us in line for the buffet still talking about it & including others in the convo. At that point I felt unwelcome and told my roomie I was just going to wait in the car outside. She opposed that, but I told her I’d be fine and left. I stayed in the car for 3 hours. When my roomie finally came she told me that when the bride heard about this, she didn’t personally care, but said I absolutely shouldn’t have brought edibles, as many of the attendees were christians and equated weed to meth or cocaine
