unless a business is involved in immediate life-saving care like a hospital, people can just go somewhere else.

That's not necessarily true. Obviously wedding invitations don't come anywhere close to providing a necessity, but there are plenty of other services that people do need on a day-to-day basis, for which there may not be another viable option. If you've got the only grocery store in an area refusing to serve a certain group of people, for example, that group becomes disadvantaged because they need to travel further to get their food.

It's not "hiding behind religion," it's the reason motivating their decision.

It's absolutely hiding behind religion. Saying "my religion says so" is nothing more than an excuse to get out of having to form a real argument and commit to the position at an intellectual level. It's a lazy emotional appeal at best.
