Man of honor

So my Man of Honor is moving to Florida in a few weeks. He has been my best friend for as long as i can remember... He has been going through some financial issues up here, and his job has literally put him over the edge. His parents moved to FL last yr and they offered to help him out through his rough spot and help him get back on his feet. But the catch is he has to move down there.... I am happy for him in the sense that he gets to make his life better and get on the right road for his career and mental state. But i am also sad... I mean i know our friendship can handle the long distance thing but i'm hoping he can still be able to do everything he will need to as the man of honor... I don't have the money to fly him back and forth and nor does he... i'm sure we can collaborate over the phone and skype for most things but when push comes to shove in those last 2 or 3 months before the wedding i know that i would want him up here. I don't want to tell him all this (even though he probably knows it already) because i don't wanna lay a guilt trip on him along with everything else... Can you guys off some words of wisdom? Thanks girlss

Re: Man of honor

If money is an issue for him, I don't think you should expect him to fly here except for the wedding. I'm sure he wants to be by your side for everything, but if he's living in Florida, that just isn't going to happen in the same way that it would if he still lived nearby.
