Love is in the Air!

As we turn the page to February, the air is filled with the sweet scent of romance. This month's issue of VIP Murfreesboro is dedicated to all things weddings, with a special focus on celebrating love and giving back to our community.

Inside, you'll find inspiration for every stage of your wedding journey, from choosing the perfect venue and finding the dream dress to planning a delicious menu and selecting the ideal entertainment. Our event planning guide is also perfect for help planning any event, no matter how big or small! We've also curated a collection of stunning weddings that showcase local couples’ unique styles and personalities.

But this issue is more than just wedding bells and blissful bouquets. We're proud to highlight the incredible work of local non-profit organizations and the inspiring individuals who support their missions. The last couple of months have been very busy with our community coming together to support each other and local causes. The event pages are full of inspiring stories and celebrations.

Whether you're a bride-to-be, a groom-to-be or simply someone who loves a good love story, we hope this issue brings you joy and inspires you to celebrate love in all its forms. As always, please keep us informed of any events through our website submission at www.vipmurfreesboro.com.

With love and best wishes,

Carrie Beth Catron
