Wedding Party

Am I really that awful and in the wrong? Or is she being Bridezilla?

My friend asked me to be in her wedding and loving this "friend" I agreed. I've been there for her 100% since day one. Listening to her plans, helping with little things here and there when I can.

Well over the next 2 weeks she's meeting with caterers. Her fiance doesn't want to go as it's "a waste of his time". (His words, not mine.) So she asked a few of us to go. Which wouldn't be a big deal, except a few weeks ago I was diagnosed with Cealiac Disease (an extreme gluten intolerance.), which this friend knows, so I told her I wouldn't be comfortable going unless she knew for sure that there would be a few gluten free options or all gluten free at the tasting. (No, I'm not demanding she have a gluten free option for me. If there isn't, I'll just make sure I eat prior to everything, or after. It's not going to kill me to not eat for a few hours.)

She threw a FIT! A huge fit. Screamed, cried and told me I was ruining her wedding by not going tasting with her and that I made up this disease to "steal her day". I felt bad, but I didn't make this up and if I eat anything with gluten...well it just makes me sick. Really sick. After finally figuring out what's been wrong with me and getting my body back on track I just don't want to put myself up for more ickiness. Her mother proceeded to chew me out for being "selfish, immature and not a good friend".

Needless to say my feelings were hurt. Really hurt. Am I wrong for not going to this tasting with her?
