A wife must obey her husband in Islam. So can you disobey him, (yes) but you face the punishment that the church would allow. It can cause great distress at home, arguments, fights, divorce.

In Islam, the wife's duty is to obey the husband.

Islam does not confer blind obedience to the husband and the wife can always consult with local leaders if she thinks the husband is unreasonable.

Obeying the Husband is the Key to Paradise - Islam web - English (http://www.islamweb.net/emainpage/index.php?page=articles&id=149397)

...If she finds something wrong in him, from her point of view, she exchanges views with him and guides him to his mistake with leniency, kindness and conviction. Calmness and soft words work like magic.....

Limits of Obedience
However, the obedience that is obligatory on the wife to her husband is not blind obedience or obedience without restrictions, conditions or limits. Rather, it is the obedience of the righteous wife to the righteous and pious husband whose personality she trusts and believes in his sincerity and righteousness. Obedience that is based on consultation and mutual understanding promotes the entity of the family and its conditions and reinforces its foundations and strength.

The spouses are advised to consult each other with regard to all family affairs. Indeed, there is no consultant better than a faithful and truthful wife. She supports her husband, guides him with her emotions, protects him with her instinct and provides him with her opinion. The Messenger of Allaah, http://www.islamweb.net/ver2/Archive/images/icon--1.gif, would consult his wives and follow their opinion in important matters. He consulted his wife, Umm Salamah http://www.islamweb.net/ver2/Archive/images/icon-5.gif in a most critical situation. Her consultation and wise opinion were important in putting an end to that crisis and returning matters to normality.

Finally, we find that Islam has organized the rights of spouses in such a way that if each of them perfectly fulfills the other's rights, he, as well as those around him, will live in a state of happiness. However, if one of them misuses this right, the marital life will fail as it is a partnership between the spouses. Islam acknowledges the rights of the wife over her husband just as it acknowledges the husband’s rights over his wife. Additionally, it has clarified the duties of each. If both of them follow the instructions and each of them knows his Islamic rights and duties, the family will live happily and will be encompassed by tranquility and the mercy of AllaahThe Almighty.
