Not a “First Amendment” issue, although that might be an incidental detail. It’s the right to the free possession and use of ones own property, labor and time. The right to freely enter into contracts, and NOT enter into contracts, at will, for any reason or for no articulated reason.

If this merely a contract issue, and since the Supreme Court has said in the past that states have the right to regulate contracts, then the state has the right to deny a business the right to refuse a contract based on sexual orientation. The First Amendment argument is probably the way to go.

Then people who have objections for other than religious reasons are out in the cold?
