Supposedly Amish men shave their mustache because it is considered an "adornment" or embellishment and that would be contrary to their concept of being plain.
They shave their mustaches because in the 18th and 19th centuries, military men wore mustaches, and the "plain folk" are pacifists.

Married men have beards. None of then have a mustache. I believe that's because when the group was still in Germany, all military men had mustaches. The Amish are pacavists and do no believe in military conflict. That tradition stuck till this day.
