About

On WeddingWire since 2017

Grace + Ivory specializes in beautiful, high-quality made-to-measure wedding dresses at accessible prices. A bridal brand unlike any other, Grace + Ivory allows newlyweds-to-be to try on garments from the comfort of their own homes.

The collection of bridal gowns is carefully curated, and every design can be customized. Dresses are made-to-order with quality in mind, with fabrics like soft tulle, Italian crepe, Japanese mid-weight silk satin, and fine cotton lace. With hand-beaded, hand-sewn details, every dress is made-to-order and one-of-a-kind.

As an online e-commerce bridal brand based in Chicago, they create beautiful, custom, made-to-measure wedding dresses for the modern bride. As a women-owned shop, they've partnered directly with their dressmaker and cut out layers of distributors and retailers to offer gorgeous dresses without the markup.

Grace + Ivory believes in doing bridal differently, and create their high-quality dresses in three to four months. Every dress is carefully sewn and lovingly made for a bride, focusing on proportions and possibly saving on alteration costs.

Services Offered

Grace + Ivory offers an effortless experience for newlyweds-to-be. After clients have purchased their dream dress, a bridal consultant will contact them to request their measurements, confirm custom details, and send a dress agreement for signature. Wedding dresses will then be made-to-order and made-to-measure, reducing alterations costs. They encourage couples to purchase their dress between 5-6 months in advance of their wedding, to ensure that their gowns arrive a few weeks ahead of the big day. A range of complementing accessories are available upon request to complete the look, such as sashes, belts, and veils, as well as custom-made gowns for mother of the bridal or groom.

Custom dream dress

I had a such a great experience at Grace + Ivory! I didn't have a specific vision in mind, but Alyssa was incredibly helpful and pulled different styles for me to try and made me feel so comfortable the entire appointment. I fell in love with the neckline and lace on the Kali dress, and they were able to customize the dress to be the A-line fit I wanted. I was so happy with how my dress turned out and felt so beautiful in it! Truly cannot recommend Grace + Ivory enough!

Customizable Dresses + Great Shopping Experience

Grace + Ivory is amazing! I had such a special experience trying on dresses in their showroom and felt so supported by Alyssa from the moment I reached out to coordinate an appointment. I love the driving ethos behind their beautiful dresses and the way that each gown can be customized to represent the bride that wears it.

So glad this was my first shop!

Had an amazing first time bridal experience with Tina! Welcoming, knowledgeable, and patient, which was so appreciated by a bride who was still trying to articulate her vision. Very reasonable prices for high quality, beautiful dresses. Definitely recommend checking out her shop!
