Am I the asshole for refusing to remove my hijab for a wedding?

(Twilight x female reader)

I, 17 female, have a friend named Alice, 18 female, who's brother, Edward 18 male, is marrying his girlfriend of one year, Bella 18 female.

I've never met Bella, but I was asked to play the piano at their wedding. I happily agreed because I consider Edward to also be a good friend. I wasn't going to be paid, but I didn't care and I told them to consider it a wedding gift.

I wear a hijab for cultural reasons, and Alice and Edward have always been understanding of it and Alice has even helped me coordinate outfits for special occasions with hijabs.

Well a couple weeks ago I went with Alice, Rosalie (Alice's sister), Esme (Alice and Edward's mother), Renee (Bella's mother), and Bella to go bridesmaids dress shopping for the wedding.

This is when I first met Bella. I was polite and introduced myself and she said "Oh your Alice's little friend.... I didn't realize you were Islamic.... Or wore a hijab" I nodded and felt a little uncomfortable as her and her mother stared at me with funny looks that I tried to ignore.

We went in and started going through dresses while we were shopping Alice pulled me aside and showed me the hijab that she picked out for the wedding so we could try to find a dress to color match it.

Renee walked over to us but when she saw the hijab in Alice's hand she scowled and walked off. We shrugged it off and went back to shopping.

We picked a few dresses out and went to try them on. I tried on my first dress with the hijab and it was love at first sight.

I excitedly walked out to show the girls, but when I showed Bella she immediately disapproved;

"You look ridiculous! It's supposed to be a Summer wedding and you're wearing long sleeves and a floor length gown! And a hood!" She yelled at me drawing attention from other shoppers and earning looks from the other company aside from her mother who had her arms crossed and was glaring at me.

"First off it's a hijab, and second what's wrong with this dress?" I said trying to be polite "It's not summery enough! Get something else, something with shorter sleeves, and get rid of that hood thing!" She demanded and reached out to yank it off my head.

I smacked her hands away and backed up, holding the hijab to my head "And just what do you plan on wearing to the wedding? Lingerie? I will not be removing my hijab for your wedding!" I snapped back making her face turn red "It's my wedding! I decide what the party wears! You can survive without that stupid hood for one day!"

I then responded "Then count me out. Go find a new pianist for your wedding" I then changed into my normal outfit and left.

I've now been getting phone calls from Bella and Renee saying that I'm an asshole that's trying to ruin her wedding. Edward is asking me to reconsider and Alice is staying out of it.

So am I the asshole?
