it is about not ruining other guests' experience.
I really think it is a combination of both. Random weddings all over the place would be a problem but they also make a ton of money off of them. They have pretty well proven over the past several years that they are more concerned with profit than the guests. If there wasn't consideration of making money involved, they wouldn't charge such exorbitant fees for the weddings and would not be so quick to shut them down in places where they really aren't a problem.
So really this seems to be one of those things where it works out for the best on both sides. Guest experience is preserved and Disney grabs a lot of cash at the same time.
Honestly do you want a lot of people around that aren't part of your ceremony during your wedding?
Last spring my family was in a park having a picnic where there was a wedding going on. They had the wedding set up on a hill with the woods in the background. The bride arrived in a horse drawn carriage, and they had a 3 piece orchestra playing for the ceremony. They obviously had spent a lot of time planning this.
We were up in a small shelter not too far away and watched horrified as some teenagers starting photo bombing the wedding pictures and video, laughing and taking selfies with the in the wedding in the background. Even my teenage son was upset at their total lack of respect. There are many places to have a wedding but a crowded public place may not turn out the way you imagine it will.

The answer is no. Disney will break it up because it is an unsanctioned gathering...especially when they are charging for that same service. If you want a Disney wedding, prepare to open that checkbook and pay through the nose.
