     Out of Town Maid of Honor  

Even before I was engaged I have known that when I was I'd ask my best friend to be my Maid of Honor. Problem is, she lives in Perth, Australia and I live in Michigan. I did let her know that I'd understand if she couldn't make it. I realize taking that much time off of work can be impossible. Just recently my sister and grandmother told me that I would be responsible for her airfare (which will be almost 2,000 dollars). Something I did not consider before I asked. I'm totally freaking out as I'm already on a budget! Obviously I'd pay for her dress and she and her guest would have free accommodations but beyond that what are my responsibilities for an out-of-town (& country…ha!) MOH? -Thanks!

Dear Out of Money,

You are not responsible for her airfare. You are only responsible for her lodging. So, paying for her clothes is going above and beyond.

Best wishes,
