Question: "She says she won't join me in my church after our wedding, what do I do?"
Answer:
It's quite simple really
Amos 3:3 "Can two work together except they be in agreement?"
The answer is No
Ideally, because the Man is the Head as so ordained by God, it follows that a lady who accepts to marry a Man is also accepting to Follow him as he Leads Her.
And one of the areas she is to follow the Man apart from location of residence is in place of worship.
However, this issue is also very much up to the parties involved and should be discussed and addressed BEFORE the couple say I DO.
As a Lady, do not marry a Man you know you can't/won't worship in his church after you're wedded, except you've talked and he has agreed that you can worship in yours, otherwise.............
Dear Brother,
If you don't mind, then give her permission to worship in her church after you become one.
But if you know you would want you and your wife to worship in one church, look for a lady who is willing to join you in yours and let the one who won't/can't go. Don't mislead or deceive anybody.
As much as is possible, it is always advisable that a couple worship in same church. Unity starts there.
A couple should feed from same spiritual source.
Who is moving to the other's church is entirely up to a couple to decide, and if they're unable to reach a suitable compromise after much back and forth discussions, prayers and consultations, they should go their separate ways peacefully.
