Travel Issues!!! HELP!!!

Me and my Fiance live in GA and would like to have the wedding here, but most of his family live in CA including his mom. And that would be fine, but him mom is in a nursing home and can not fly because of heart problems and dialysis she is on three times a week. She is very important to him and me, and if we could we would have the wedding out there, but my family is financially unable to afford the cost of the wedding along with plane tickets. If you have any ideas, any at all, they are greatly welcome!!
                    Thanks!,

    Perhaps find someone with a laptop that could Skype her into the wedding?

    If you guys aren't willing to have the wedding in California, his mom can't fly, and you can't afford the plane tickets to fly out there to have the wedding anyways, you're sort of out of options.

    I saw on YouTube of someone whose mother was Skyped to her daughter's wedding when the mother was in hospice.

    I like PPs options.

    Is there any way just you and your FI could fly out there for a vow renewal a few months after your actual wedding or something? That way you could do something for his family there in CA, but you can have your actual wedding that you and FI want in GA.
