Get To Know Our Story

Alice + Mae Bridal was founded by designer Alyssa, inspired by her grandmother’s legacy of artistry and grace. When Alyssa discovered Alice Mae’s 1940s fashion sketches decades after her passing, it sparked a connection that shaped her own path. Sixty years later, she followed in her footsteps—studying fashion design at the same university and carrying her spirit into every piece she creates.

Each veil and accessory is handcrafted in our Nashville studio using fine materials— timeless laces, silk flowers, freshwater pearls, and the softest tulle fabrics. The name Alice + Mae celebrates both sides of her grandmother: the down-to-earth maker and the visionary designer. Every piece created in our Nashville studio is a tribute to that blend of heart and artistry—made to be cherished and passed down for generations.

Today, Alyssa works closely with each bride to style and design pieces that perfectly complement her dress and personal style. Whether in-person in Nashville or virtually around the world, every bride receives a truly personal experience, rooted in craftsmanship, sentiment, and timeless beauty.
