In that case nothing wrong it. There will be plenty of other shops/people that will help with their anniversery.  The government shouldn't make you serve somebody you don't want to serve. I applaud Mike Pence.

If the owner doesn't approve of interracial couples, should he be allowed to turn them away too?

My opinion is you can turn away anybody you want. Why not? You are providing a product and should be able to control where that product goes. Like if I own a video game store I can deny the kid that is acting stuck up and moronic and instead sell my product to somebody who actually acts like a nice person. You own the items/services, you can decide where/how/when/and why it goes. Does it really matter if the racist assholes deny a black person service, or the Catholic church denies gay couples service? In my opinion, no. Sure, they may be bad people, but you shouldn't force people to provide a product to everybody even if they don't want them. It's creates more controversy than it solves.There are plenty of other stores that can provide for you. And if it turns out that a majority of stores deny gays, then I guess the USA should ban gay marriage because the people are obviously not ready for it. The people decide what happens in this country, how it's always been, how it always should be. I for one am fine with all kinds of people. It's not like they are affecting me in anyway.

Ever see the sign " No shoes, no shirt, NO service?" Same thing applies. If you truly believe in free speech and individual freedom, you cannot force a business to serve anyone they decide not to serve. It may suck in many ways but living in a free society means dealing with things you may not agree with.
