About the February Issue

It’s February, and love is in the air.

For those whose cupid’s arrows are leading them down the aisle, we have our annual special weddings section in which area planners share their tips and thoughts on the latest trends for unique and meaningful ceremonies and style inspiration. Read how Chrissy Sweyer envisioned a striking and lush space for indoor and outdoor weddings at Wrightsville Manor.

Love of community and professional calling also show up in this month’s issue.

Find out how the congregation of Temple of Israel is working to repair the historic downtown structure, built in 1876 and the oldest Jewish house of worship in North Carolina.

New Hanover High School’s Abbey Nobles has turned her love of teaching into work that inspires her students, earning her honors as the state’s Southeast Region Teacher of the Year.

Ashley Lomboy also is connecting with students and community. The global information security manager for Corning created the STEM Studio for Waccamaw Siouan students.
