Need to fire an employee, but he will get married soon.

So this is a hard one for me, generally dont hesitate that much when i know an employee isn't going to work, but this time the guy its just starting his life in a new city, and getting married in a couple of months... so even if i dont want it, this knowledge affects my decision. I know that if i fire him he would get in some trouble, really affecting his life. Not my responsibility but still... Not doing a terrible job, but he just isn't good enough fit for the position. Already tried an improvement plan and all, but not a lot of results. Even talk to him about trying a new position, same or better wage, but he is not interested. I know what i should do, but just wanted to hear about whats your tough process in this situations or any advice possible adivce. Im thinking about keeping him for a couple of months and fire after wedding... but that could be worse for both.
