AITA for telling my friend she was undermining my work by having extravagant centerpieces for the bridal table at her wedding, compared to guest tables (which I made centerpieces for?)

YTA what did you think “already covered” meant? Instead of getting her to recommend you to her guests you’ve ensured she will no longer even avail of your service for future events. Did you not realise the only way guests would’ve known about your business is if she recommended you to them? You’ve effectively burned that bridge by your comments.
I thought already covered meant she got another vendor. Making them herself just felt a bit like she was trying to show oh look at how great I make these, kind of thing. She could've made them all herself instead of asking me. Or if it was a time issue, she could've asked me to make the bridal table ones and made the guest ones herself. I get it's her wedding though, so I can see how I might've overreacted
I’m kinda baffled you are surprised the bridal table’s center pieces were more extravagant than the ones for guest tables. It would be more surprising if the reverse was true.
I'm not surprised the bridal table's centerpieces are more extravagant, I'm surprised she made them. Even if it was another vendor I think it would've been fine, but making them herself kind of feels like a kick to me, like "oh I'm much better than you, but I'll get you to make the guest table". But it is her wedding so she can do whatever she wants, which is why I might be overreacting. But I just think it's kind of like if someone asks you to make a wedding cake, and they have another bigger and better wedding cake there, you know?
