Wife has a tendency to make a mountain out of a mole hill and I've been calling her out on it lately. She did it again last night at daughter's cheerleaders practice and I decided not to hold my tongue. She left practice and came home and we haven't spoken since.

Even when you’re right, you’re wrong. And the more right you are the worse the theatrics.
When she insists that you apologize for how you made her “feel”, bite the billet but keep smiling on the inside because this is as close to her acknowledging that you were right as you’re ever gonna get.
The win is you got through to her, and she knows you’re right, even though she will never say so. Gotta read it between the lines but it’s there.

This is your fault then. You should've nipped this thing in the bud the first time.

Don’t go.
You have to make a point here. If she can’t talk to you, then don’t go.
She may get mad but it ain’t the first time she has been mad at you and won’t be the last time

Man I read shite like this on here way too often. I've been married over 40 years and ain't no way. I feel bad for some of y'all.

This has happened to every man who ever has been married in the entire history of civilization.

I hate to tell you this, but nobody respects you and you don't deserve it. I can't imagine my wife making any plans without consulting me. It's not because I'm a controlling a-hole, but because she respects me. I do the same. It could be a business trip or family thing, doesn't matter because we're a part of each other's life. Unsure how you can be a man and gain their respect because things like that can't be taught, they just are.
I would probably just say that you aren't going when she finally tells you and enjoy the peace and quiet and prepare for the shitstorm your Alpha wife is going to give you once they get home. But since she's used to doing whatever she wants and dragging you into it, you'll go and then come back and complain to the OT. That's why she keeps doing it. So go on and be a good little Beta and do what mommy tells you to.

Next time her bull is about to bang your wife while you watch tell him to PIIHB for you.

100% accurate

Maybe try expressing your feelings to her on this issue and demand she include you in any plans in the future rather than ask random people on a message board

I haven’t read the thread yet, but I agree with the first few commenters: she doesn’t respect you.
Obviously I don’t know you but what I know of guys in this situation is they don’t deserve the respect they feel they’re entitled to. Best thing you can do is address this through communication with her but more importantly, become so busy that it’s an inconvenience to her to schedule something without consulting you.
You have shite to do, people to see, hobbies to do, missions to accomplish, right? Act like it.
Edit - just saw this part:

No, I am expected to go. If I don’t then I am selfish for skipping out on a family event.
Being selfish would do you wonders. You should never go if she pulls this shite on you. And it’s perfectly fine to say, “because I don’t want to.”
I highly recommend the book When I say No I feel Guilty by Manuel Smith. Probably should pick up No More Mr Nice Guy by Robert Glover while you’re at it.

I agree with the sentiment, but you can't expect to be the most important thing in her life until after marriage. You're just a boyfriend until then.

I could complain about my wife all day long. But this is definitely not something she would do. I feel like this is definitely a respect thing. Seems like she has no respect for you.
I’d recommend a real “stand up for yourself moment” Put your foot down. Holler and scream if you need to. Show her that you are a man and she needs to respect your opinion. If that goes south, tell her to kick rocks.
Went through this recently with a really good friend of mine. He told me the first real fight they’ve been in was on their honeymoon…. She doesn’t respect his opinion at all and they’re on the fast tract to a divorce.
