2014 Bridal Fashion featuring Fabulous Frocks

Good morning Bridal Beauties!

As many of you already know, finding that perfect gown for your special day is no easy endeavor. Luckily, there are some wonderful people in the bridal fashion industry who have eyes for style and a strong drive for constant innovation! Today we’re going to be talking about 2014 bridal trends!

When shopping at your local bridal boutiques, expect to see everything from plunging backs, to lovely lace, and even COLORED DRESSES?! Many blushing brides are now opting for blush gowns to match their glowing cheeks in 2014! This year’s trends are pushing the envelope, and brides are eager to try the new styles that are unique AND chic.

This week, we visited Fabulous Frocks of Atlanta, located in Tyrone, GA, to get an insider’s look at the beautiful gowns that are flying off the racks in 2014. Abriel, owner of Fabulous Frocks, was ecstatic to show us some of the dresses in this year’s collection.

Abriel says that what’s most exciting to her, as a bridal shop owner, is that brides are coming into the store wanting to try something new and unique. She says that they are excited to try on dresses that are different from what their friends have worn, so that keeps things interesting and fun! Fabulous Frocks also never sells the same dress twice since they specialize in sample dresses. This allows brides to get awesome deals, saving them 30-70% off of retail price, which actually translates to thousands of dollars! Some of the high end labels that Fabulous Frocks carries include: Rivini, Monique Lhuillier, Vera Wang, Carolina Herrera, Valentino, Modern Trousseau, and their most popular sellers: Lusan Mandongus and Anne Barge.  Here are some of the dresses that Fabulous Frocks has sold that are on point with the 2014 bridal trends!

It’s February…and we all know what that means. LOVE! It is, of course, our favorite holiday here at

The Funky Shack Art Studio, because that is what we celebrate everyday. Valentine’s is a day to

remember the one you love the most, and why. Also…flowers & chocolates make any Friday better,

right? Check out photos and video from one of our favorite styled shoots, "The Book of Love" here!

Don’t be afraid to sneak some of our ideas into your romantic night or your big day!

And as always, celebrate love.

Melissa and Michael's Romantic Wedding at Foxhall Resort and Sporting Club

It was so amazing to see the love between this precious couple that the talented Claudia McDade captured on film. We felt very honored to be a part of this special day. Because the couple is from Nicaragua, many family and friends travelled quite far to be with Melissa and Michael. Their family was so gracious and we were entertained with some fabulous salsa dancing. Foxholl Resort and Sporting Club and Resort was the perfect venue and we had some fabulous vendors to create the perfect day. Thanks to Blooming Flour, Tulla White Cusine and Catering,bar service by LyghtHouse Cocktail and Capo 3. All the printing and graphic design was done by the bride!

Intimate Wedding at The Newnan Train Depot

When we were approached about planning and designing a wedding in a little over two weeks we were thrilled and loved the challenge. It was a joy to work with such a gracious family. Thanks to some amazing vendors we able to make it happen and it was fabulous. The Newnan Train Depot was the perfect venue for this intimate wedding and our dear friends at Contemporary Catering were able to accommodate us last minute even though they were closed for the holiday weekend. Desserts all came from City Cafe and Bakery in Fayetteville. The already gorgeous bride was made even more stunning by Jaime Marsau. Last buy not least, a big thank you to Katie Snyder for capturing the day. Overall, one breathtaking

Funky Shack wedding.

I love the old family Bible we were able to incorporate into the design.

The wind had a chill so the brides mamma

 was warming her up.

The desserts from City Cafe and Bakery were as delicous as they looked.

It was a perfect chilly fall evening 

for a hot chocolate bar.
