One of my BM's lost her job two months ago and is having a rough time. I offered her everything short of paying for the airplane ticket, but it's still too much to fly in for the wedding.

One of my BM's lost her job two months ago and is having a rough time. I offered her everything short of paying for the airplane ticket, but it's still too much to fly in for the wedding. I understand, get it, and will miss her like crazy on the big day. If she suddenly gets a job, she will come up, but since she's been looking for three months.. I'm not banking on it.

So.. What do I do... all the guys have confirmed and have their suits ordered.

1) Have one of the guys just lead them out alone?

2) Ask someone to step in and try not to make them feel like the backup?

Any tips on how to handle this situation? I can't be the first.
