Anne Barge Spring & Summer 2024 Bridal Collection

For the Anne Barge Spring 2024 Bridal Collection we reflect on the nearly 24 years that our namesake designs have flourished in our cherished home of Atlanta, GA.

When Shawne Jacobs created the line for Anne Barge, she drew inspiration from the timeless allure of femininity and refinement. I channel that same captivating beauty while embracing a fresh, modern sensibility that delights in the unexpected: a touch of blues, lavender, mint green, and melon. A daring, floral appliquéd neckline or an open, draped back, a gossamer overlay of embroidered Chantilly lace and the exquisite, one-of-a-kind details that make a gown unforgettable.

“Brides today are very confident in their personal style and are willing to take more risks than in the past”, says Shawne Jacobs, Creative Director of Anne Barge. “It could be robin’s egg blue trim, detachable ruffled lace sleeves or a dramatic, asymmetrical neckline. There are no rules- only the gown that embodies a bride’s dream”.

To honor our brand’s hometown, we photographed the collection at the Swan House, one of Atlanta’s most beautiful historic landmarks.
