Man not allowed at mom's wedding, wife says, 'not after what her fiancé said about me.'

When this man is torn about his mom&#39;s wedding, he asks Reddit:&quot;AITA for still wanting to go to my mom&#39;s wedding after what the groom said about my wife?&quot; My mom is getting married soon and I&#39;m happy for her despite not particularly liking the guy.  She was pretty much a single mom because my dad didn&#39;t give a sh** about me. She did everything and gave me the best childhood.  We aren&#39;t super close right now, because there is some tension between her and my wife (no one is really being mean, they just don&#39;t gel) but I still want to go to her wedding and show support.  She&#39;s really happy for the first time I can remember.  Anyway the issue is about a year and a half ago my wife overheard the guy my mom is marrying call her (my wife) ugly. My mom was asking how to crop a picture on her phone.  He didnt know my wife was around and asked if she wanted him to crop her &quot;ugly bull face out&quot; My wife was beyond devastated. She came to me in tears and I confronted him. I honestly lost my sh** and screamed at him.  He did apologize and kept saying he didn&#39;t know she was around as if that was supposed to make it better.  My wife has never forgiven him and feels embarrassed to be around him, so as a result we don&#39;t do holidays or anything with my mom.  My mom visits occasionally without him, but is pretty busy so we don&#39;t see her much. She has implied this is ridiculous and my wife needs to get over it.  When my mom invited us to the wedding, I knew my wife wouldn&#39;t want to go and supported that, but then she dropped the bombshell that she doesn&#39;t want me to go.  She said it will feel like a betrayal and I should stand by her to show my mom that she is wrong for marrying such an asshole, and that my wife is my priority.  I tried to gently explain that I can&#39;t. I don&#39;t necessarily agree but I feel my mom deserves to finally be happy and I want to be there for her. i said I still plan on attending, and my wife was furious.
