There are many big names in the wedding design industry, each with their\u00a0<\/span>own<\/span>\u00a0signature style. But brides are also drawn to fresh talents who bring new perspectives and unique visions, adding a welcome dose of diversity. At the same time, while planning their big day, couples are increasingly turning to local suppliers. By forming personal connections with these vendors and supporting local businesses, they’re making choices that resonate on a deeper level.<\/span><\/p>

We’re thrilled to share our interview with Alyssa Dahl, the founder of Dahl Collection<\/a><\/span>, a bridal fashion brand from California. Alyssa’s journey began in 2018 when she embarked on her\u00a0<\/span>own<\/span>\u00a0quest for the perfect wedding dress. Along the way, she noticed a gap in the market: while high-end couture offered impeccable quality, it often came with a hefty price tag.\u00a0<\/span>On the other hand, more budget-friendly options\u00a0<\/span>lacked<\/span>\u00a0the attention to detail she craved.<\/span>\u00a0Determined to fill this void, Alyssa took matters into her own hands and crafted her dream gown. This hands-on experience ignited her passion and laid the foundation for her venture into the bridal industry.<\/span><\/p>

Read on to learn about California’s influence on the brand, its design philosophy, and the unexpected inspiration behind the latest collection, “Wonderland<\/a><\/span>.”<\/span><\/p>

Does being situated in California influence your design process?<\/em><\/strong><\/h2>

Being able to produce my gowns where I live is extremely important\u00a0<\/span>to me<\/span>.\u00a0<\/span>I think of my dresses as my children,\u00a0<\/span>and<\/span>\u00a0I\u00a0<\/span>am a very hands-on designer.<\/span> I approve every aspect throughout the process. <\/span>I hand place all the appliques, hand sew, perform quality control, ensure workers are in safe conditions and paid appropriately, etc.\u00a0<\/span>So much of this industry <\/strong><\/span>is manufactured overseas. It’s difficult even to find workers here because those jobs have almost disappeared. It makes me proud that I\u2019m one of the very few brands that actually<\/strong>\u00a0produce here<\/strong> and took the risk even though it was a more challenging route\u00a0<\/span>to take<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

What do you hope brides will feel when they wear one of your dresses on their special day?<\/em><\/strong><\/h2>

Their best and most beautiful selves.\u00a0<\/span>I know it<\/span>\u00a0might sound a bit cheesy, but seriously!<\/span>\u00a0I want them to look in the mirror and think, “Man, I look good, I feel comfortable, and I feel sexy!”<\/strong> When I got married, I made my\u00a0<\/span>own<\/span>\u00a0dress,\u00a0<\/span>and it was so<\/span>\u00a0unique. I felt like a super attractive queen and was comfortable all night. Everyone should feel that way, and I try to bring these elements into every gown.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
