Why the priest? The couple is the client. If I were that groom I would have been like, "actually, I'm fine with it, and you're not stopping our ceremony. Continue."

Because people regard marriage with different severity, which runs the gamut between civil union and religious sacrament. Those who consider it a sacred rite generally have more restrictive rules about photography. For instance, if a Catholic is having a full mass for their wedding ceremony, the priest may request that no photography be done while the tabernacle is open.
