Does The HOA Board have the ability to decline and owner use of a common element? The condo owners dues are paid and the condo is a second home.

My family and I use our condo is a second home. It is not rented. I wanted to use the Clubhouse for a family dinner..a reception of family and friends for my cousins weding. I spoke with the board to confirm the date was available about 4 months prior to the date. About 6 weeks prior to the date we wanted to map out the room for seating. It was relayed to me that i could not rent it because i do not live on the property. What does that matter? This phone discusion began and I thought he debate was whether or not I had a renter. Well, the first line on the rental agreement is the renter myst be an owner living on the property. I relayed to the Management Company that is against CCrs and Florida Statutes. The CCRs state that the Clubhouse is a common element and Florida Statutes for Common Elelments are being conflicted too. I am feeling discrimminated against and this is cousing me great distress. The HOA nor the Managment Co is returning my emails or my phone calls.
