   Only if you believe that both parties were celibate and would remain celibate   
   forever if they did not get married.  Otherwise the act that you consider   
   immoral is going to take place, with or without a cake, with or without a   
   wedding, with or without any marriage of any type.  In fact, if you believe   
   that sex outside of marriage is also immoral, or if you believe that   
   promiscuity in general is also immoral, then you should want them to get   
   married even if you believe that homosexual acts are immoral.  If they are   
   going to have sex anyway, then having it outside of marriage ought to make it   
   doubly immoral to you.
