The answer

There is no objection to the young man marrying before the end of his mother's (waiting period). There is also no objection to his mother attending the wedding ceremony, provided it does not involve her staying overnight outside her home. However, she must avoid what is forbidden for a woman in iddah, such as adornment, perfume, and anything similar.
