To not go to a wedding if husband is not invited

My ex sister in law (separated from her brother 12 years ago, but kept in contact because we used to have a good relationship and for my son).
My ex, her brother, has been married for a few years and even had another child. He's not really involved with my son, so no loyalty issue there.
The ex SIL met my husband a few times and I never noticed any issues between them.
Today she sends me an invitation for her son's wedding (my husband even translated some documents for them) and asked to confirm my presence with my son. I'm sure it's a small event. No mention of my husband.

How do I handle that? Is that normal? Should I just assume that my husband is invited? I'm sure my husband will not care much, but I can't help but think that it's not ok. AIBU?

P.S. We are not from the UK and ex SIL is latin.

I don't think I'd bother starting an argument over with considering the invitation is from your ex-sister-in-law. Your husband is probably more than happy not to have to attend the wedding of the sister of his wife's former partner.

Just go if you want to.

Don't assume. Check with her.
