AIBU to contact the bride and groom re this uncertain wedding invitation?

Family friend's daughter getting married. My mother (I am very low contact, would rather not get into this) said she was given an invitation for me but hasn't sent this/ a photo for confirmation. Relationship has deteriorated since due to her behaviour.

I do not have the energy for health reasons to get in touch with my mother.

Would it be ok to contact the b&g directly. To check whether there is indeed an invitation and the details? The issue is if my mother has made some mistake (not entirely unlikely) and the invitation was not for me. I could reassure them no awkwardness if there is no invitation, I just didn't want to keep them waiting for numbers if there is. The type of wedding means it's likely I am invited (more the merrier rather than limited places).

I don't really want to contact the MOB. Lovely but close to my mother and makes clear we are not in touch.

Thanks for advice on this, I messaged the bride in the end and it turned out I was invited after all and she's said she's happy I can make it!
