As a social enterprise, and their mission is about women supporting women, and a portion of every dress purchase goes to programs helping women and girls in need. This trail-blazing company was founded by Tina Wong, who saw the lack of affordable, well-made gowns when she was planning her own nuptials. Grace + Ivory focuses on providing exquisite made-to-order dresses for every budget by using top-quality fabrics and collaborating directly with trained dressmakers. This results in a streamlined process for engaged couples who are busy planning their big day. 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. They encourage couples to purchase their dress between 4-6 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 belts and veils, as well as custom-made gowns for mom and bridesmaids.

I went to Grace & Ivory over a year ago for our wedding in May 2022. Tina was wonderful to work with, and she was prompt with any questions we had. The dress was made-to-measure, and it required such minimal alterations after receiving (just bu...

Grace + Ivory is the best and I would recommend them to anyone. I was feeling stressed by the whole process of finding a wedding dress. I felt overwhelmed by the idea of going to a store to try on dresses, and my closest people wouldn't have be...
en able to be there in person with me. My mom found Grace + Ivory online, so we ordered several dresses for me to try on at home. The try-at-home process was so seamless and easy. I had a design consult with Alyssa to create a custom dress based on elements from 3 of the dresses I tried on. Alyssa and Tina were so open and supportive throughout the design process. I was blown away by how my dress turned out. The quality is great and I love knowing that I have a one-of-a-kind dress. It fit perfectly and didn't need any alterations. I couldn't have been happier and received many compliments at my wedding.
Tina and the Grace + Ivory team helped me customize one of their beautiful designs to make my perfect wedding dress! The dress arrived and fit almost perfectly, only requiring a few minor alterations. The custom belt I requested was beautiful a...
nd looked like it always belonged on my gown! As someone who has body proportions that don’t work well with off-the-rack shopping, my wedding dress shopping experience had been so stressful until I found Grace + Ivory. I was so thankful to be able to have a dress made to my proportions from the start, and I felt so much more comfortable and confident throughout my experience with at-home try on and purchasing my dress with Grace + Ivory.
Grace + Ivory were a great option for me. I had 9 months to between the time I found them & my wedding and they got my dress done and delivered in 7. The dress was high quality and comfortable - not to mention beautiful. They are very easy to w...

I couldn't be more happy with my Grace + Ivory experience! From the moment I walked into the store, the experience just felt different than all the other dress appointments I had throughout the Chicago area. It was personal, intimate, and reall...
y inviting.
Tina (the founder) is fantastic to work with and ensured all the sizing was correct before finalizing the order. She clearly explained the process and how each dress is custom made based on multiple measurements. I had a slight tweak I wanted to make on the dress and veil and they were more than accommodating.
Communication throughout the process has been fantastic and they always respond very quickly. I was kept up to date throughout the entire process which I really appreciated. As mentioned, the prices are very reasonable and it even includes a donation to a local Chicago charity which I really appreciated.
I received the dress yesterday and it fits PERFECT, exactly how they explained it would! I couldn't be more grateful for having their wedding dress on my special day and have been recommending this place to everyone that is getting married. Everyone kept commenting on how beautiful it was throughout our entire evening!

I cannot recommend Grace + Ivory more for purchasing a wedding dress. I initially found them by googling wedding dress stores in Chicago and upon reviewing their website, there were so many dresses I fell in love with and had to try on immediat...
ely. Outside of the dresses, I loved that Grace and Ivory was a locally women owned business that had a charitable aspect to dress purchases. The ability to customize the dress I wanted and the dress being made to size was the cherry on top. For the quality of the dresses, the cost was very affordable including the additions for customizations.
Tina and team make you feel like part of their family, and in the chaos of wedding planning it was really wonderful to have one vendor I was confident in and never needed to worry about. Even though my wedding is well over, I can't wait to see the new designs and accomplishments these ladies achieve!

This whole fitting experience was refreshing. Tina and Sarah are both great. I worked with Sarah for my home try-on and Tina for my in-person fitting. This was my third dress fitting and morale was pretty low at this point. Tina took her tim...
e for the fitting to make sure everyone felt comfortable and also to learn more about the wedding. There was no sense of rush or hurry. Most other places just have you throw on the gown and take a few pictures, but Tina made sure to clip the gown so that it best fit to my figure, which really made all the difference! You can tell that she really loves each gown (which she designed!), and that they were made with the highest quality and attention to detail. She was very thorough with the measurements and I'm excited to receive my gown. Highest praise for Grace and Ivory.

Went to Grace + Ivory yesterday to look for my wedding dress. I was super nervous because I hadn’t been finding my dress and so I didn’t know what to expect. I went to their new brick and mortar shop and it was so cute! It was a spacious loft v...
ibe with all the dresses hung up. I was the only one there so I had it all to myself. I worked with Alyssa who helped me figure out which style and colors I liked. She was super sweet and took pics/videos for me to send to my family. When I FaceTimed my mom and sister Alyssa helped me out and showed the dress to them for me. I was able to try on all the dresses I wanted and didn’t feel rushed or pressured into deciding right then and there. Towards the end of our appointment Tina came in and spoke with me about all the ways we could alter and customize my dress.
I actually found my perfect dress there and am SO excited about it! It is everything I was looking for and more!
Also, you’re uncomfortable going into their store, you can go on their website and have them send dresses to you to try on. All their dresses are shown on the website so you can see what your options are.
Other details to note:
- dresses are really reasonably priced at $2,200 or less
- they can customize the dress in whatever way you need
- the dresses are customized to fit you perfectly
- they said they take about 4-6 months to get the dress made
All in all it was the exact experience I was hoping to have with dress shopping and I highly recommend them!

dresses she helped me select. She also provided advice on how to customize the designs to get what I truly wanted. The founder, Tina, was also present and did a wonderful job explaining more about the dresses and the next steps in the process of getting a custom dress. Everyone in my party had a good experience and the space was beautiful. Although I didn't end up finding "the" dress at Grace + Ivory, there were many styles I loved. They also had the most comfortable dresses with the softest fabrics of any of the salons I tried!

The second I put my dress on, I knew it was the one for me. Buying the dress was easy and I cannot emphasize enough how incredible it is to buy a gown that is made specifically for you. The only alterations needed were my bustle. Compared to friends who bought their dresses in a shop, I spent thousands less on a beautiful dress!

On the day of the wedding, I felt gorgeous in my dress. My husband cried at our first look photos, and I thank my dress for it! A lot of my friends were also amazed that I was able to purchase such a beautiful dress online, and it totally changed all of our opinions on dress shopping. Even some friends whom I hadn't talked to in years contacted me on Facebook to ask where I got my dress! I highly, highly recommend Grace + Ivory. They will help you find your dream look.

I would highly recommend working with Tina & her business if you want a beautiful, well-made, unique wedding dress!

Once covid happened, I started to search for other dresses online and social media. That is when I came across Grace + Ivory! I am so happy I did. I ordered two dresses and fell in LOVE with one. My dress fit perfectly and I didn’t even need alterations! If you like custom made to measure bridal dresses, personable customer service, gorgeous dresses, cute packaging and a safe try it on at home experience then give Grace+Ivory a try. Thank you Grace + Ivory for my dream wedding dress and the incredible shopping experience.

Not only did she come with a lot of choices to pick from, she brought us champagne and made the whole process as smooth as possible. I fell in love and said YES to the dress.

I would highly recommend them for anyone that is having trouble with traditional stores as they are much more prepared and professional.

Hi Teresa, Thank you for your wonderful words! Congrats on your big day! It's been a hard year and I'm so happy that Tina and our team could help you out to make yours a little brighter. Our Melanie dress was stunning on you.
I worked with Tina to design my dream dress, which was not hard considering her gorgeous suite of dresses that are all customizable. I got to see her dresses first hand at a pop-up and she was so attentive right off the bat. The fabrics were st...
unning and I was immediately drawn to the silk used in the Elise, a fabric that would have cost a fortune if purchased off the rack. She took my measurements and within a few days, I had a sketch in hand straight from Tina and her dressmaker tailored to my body. Her response time was incredibly fast and she provided updates along the way, essential for an anxious bride! My dress was not only unique but timeless. I could not have dreamed of a better experience from start to end.
Response from the Vendor on 12/29/2020
Thank you Jacqueline! We focus on using high quality fabrics and materials, and appreciate your keen eye for them. Making your made-to-measure, custom bridal gown was a joy and we truly appreciate your support.
Scrambling to figure out how to try on wedding dresses during COVID shutdown, I came across Grace + Ivory as an at-home try on option. Tina was a delight to work with from beginning to end. She helped me narrow down my options and schedule them...
accordingly so I could compare with the dresses I’d ordered from other bridal salons. The at-home try on experience was awesome (COVID or not!!), it really gave me the time to try on the dresses several times with no pressure or rush. After narrowing down to a couple similar options, the quality and detailing of my fav Grace + Ivory dress felt worlds above the others. Tina was easily able to include a few customizations to the dress to make it exactly what I wanted. My dress arrived ahead of schedule, it fits well and only needs minor alterations. I’m thrilled to be able to wear this soon - even though COVID may have caused us to completely reconfigure the wedding day plans, the dress will still be perfect ❤️😍

Thank you Stephanie! We loved sending you dresses to try at home and helping you shop for your wedding dress. <3
I literally feel BLESSED to have discovered Grace + Ivory during my wedding dress search. From start to finish, the design and fit processes were easy, precise and clear. I can not overstate how great it was to partner with a single person to...
design the dress of my dreams... and then get exactly what I envisioned without spending a small fortune!
I LOVE my wedding dress. Every detail I wanted was included. The in-person quality of the fabric, details and workmanship was 10 times better than I expected. I originally planned to wear a second dress for my reception, but didn’t because I didn’t want to take off my dream gown. I’m already making plans to put it on again in a few years for an anniversary photo shoot.
I’d recommend Grace + Ivory to any bride who wants to make the timeless wedding dress of her dreams a reality!

Thank you Leslie for your kind words! We loved working with you on your dream dress and congrats to you and your hubby!
Grace + Ivory was a godsend. I found them through a facebook ad early on in our engagement, and had my eye very specifically on the Elise Dress. Nothing else I looked at online compared. I'm located in Virginia, so I made an appointment with th...
e owner, Tina and went with my mom and MIL to do a try-on in DC.
First of all, Tina is so incredibly kind and welcoming. Every question I had was answered with confidence, and I felt so at ease from start to finish with the whole process. Luckily, trying on the dress was even better than I had imagined (for months I stared at it online daily! Haha) and going with G+I for my dress purchase was an obvious choice. Not to mention it was made entirely to my measurements. I spent ZERO dollars on alterations!! Zero!
On top of loving the dress, the company as a whole really spoke to me, personally. It felt good to be supporting an honest and hard-working small business that was woman-owned and that gave back to a great cause. The experience between this and shopping at a big box store was incomparable. Rather than pushing hard to earn a commission, you are treated with respect and encouraged to enjoy every moment of this exciting journey.
I've recommended Grace + Ivory to every single bride I have come across since discovering them for myself. I wouldn't change a thing. Tina, thank you for everything you and your team do!
Brides: Go buy a Grace + Ivory dress!!!

Thank you Brittany! We appreciate the feedback and loved working with you on your dress.
I wish I could give more than 5 stars for Grace & Ivory!!!!! I tried on EVERY wedding dress in the DC, Virginia, and Maryland area and can honestly say that G&I dresses are more beautiful than all of them!! Working with Tina, the founder of G&I...
was an absolute treat. She is extraordinarily knowledgeable about her dresses, patient and accommodating to every single request, and a sweet and wonderful young entrepreneur. The customer service was hands down the best I've received in my entire life. You feel like an individual bride with G&I, not another customer on a conveyor belt.
I picked the Sienna dress, which is SO GORGEOUS, but skin tight. Tina did all of my made-to-measure measurements, and warned me that I may need additional alterations (which I did once the dress arrived). She worked with me on finding a person who could do alterations and answered all of my questions throughout the process, even though she had already sold me the dress and her part of the process was over.
Let me also say-- the prices are UNBELIEVABLY reasonable compared to other dresses. You simply cannot find this level of quality at this pricepoint elsewhere. The process of having the dresses made overseas scared me at first, but working with Tina made me realize that I could put my full trust in her and the process. It was such a delight.
Best wedding dresses ever!!!!

Thank you Jessica! You were so great to work with and we're so happy you loved our Sienna dress. <3
I first heard about Grace + Ivory from a friend who told me about a popup they were doing at Ezra Paul in Washington DC in Feb. 2019. I was initially drawn in by the gorgeous, unique styles on their website and was impressed at the reasonable p...
rices. I tried on three dresses and the quality of each was impressive (I had gone to several bridal appointments at that point in my search, and the quality was comparable to far more expensive dresses I had tried on at traditional bridal shops). Tina (the owner) was amazing and immediately puts you at ease with her friendly personality and attention to detail. Though I didn't purchase a dress from Grace + Ivory as I ended up falling in love with a dress of a different style elsewhere, it made for a very tough decision and was one of my top choices! However, I did end up being the winner of a drawing for a custom lace-edge veil, which turned out to be absolutely gorgeous with beautiful lace detailing at the edges, and I'm so excited to wear it! At a recent fitting, the seamstress was so impressed she even said that a veil of this quality could easily be $400-600 or more (much higher than the cost of the veil would have been!). So while I didn't find my dream dress there, I've been recommending Grace + Ivory to all of my engaged friends!

Thank you Karen!
Having my wedding dress created by Grace & Ivory was one of the best decision I made while planning my special day! From the very beginning, Tina was amazingly helpful and supportive - she even allowed me to create my prefect dress by putting t...
ogether the top and bottom of two separate dresses (specifically, I added the top of the Ava dress to the bottom of the Annette dress, and changed the layers of crinoline and tulle from blush to ivory). The end result was so high quality and luxurious looking, I plan to frame the dress and hang it on my wall someday. Most importantly, Tina made the process personalized, fun and simple - which is exactly what you want when you are in the midst of planning your wedding! I promise, you will not regret choosing Grace & Ivory for your perfectly customized wedding gown!

Thank you for your kind words Maggie! We loved creating your one-of-a-kind dress with you and the photos are so gorgeous. Thank you for sharing!
I am so so so grateful for Grace & Ivory and for the owner Tina! Tina was so accommodating and meticulous. Her responses were quick and thorough. She made sure that I was 100% happy with the final product and I sure was! The Emma dress made me ...
feel like a complete princess and I literally had kids at the wedding calling me a princess too. I recommend this place to everyone!! Don’t sleep on this, go with Grace & Ivory. You won’t regret it!

Thank you Katherine! You were simply stunning in our Gemma dress. <3
I wore a Grace and Ivory dress shortly after I gave birth. I was pregnant when I sent in my measurements and had to give an educated guess on some of the numbers since my body would be different once it was time to wear the dress. When my dress...
came in after I had given birth, it was exactly what I ordered! Because I was a little bigger than the measurements I sent in, I made a quick trip to the tailor and let out the sides a bit more and viola, perfection! The process was seamless and as a mom to a newborn, extremely convenient. Grace & Ivory is professional and responsive. The quality is outstanding and rivaled all the dresses I tried on in brick & mortar bridal shops. I’m happy to recommend them to anyone.

Thank you! We're trying to take a more sustainable and socially conscious approach to our business and we appreciate the support!
I was so excited to see the new styles that Grace+Ivory designed. Tina knew that the Tabitha dress was the one for me, and sure enough, when I tried it on it was perfect! After a quick fitting I went on my way hoping that the dress would arrive...
in time since I am so last minute. About 8 weeks later my dress, veil, and accessories arrived! Tina was very responsive when it came to very minor adjustments, and the dress was stunning. Grace+Ivory made the bridal experience special, easy, and affordable. I have recommended their dresses to everyone I know since they were such a big part of my wedding day.
