Having previously beaten Halifax Town 4-2, the Moors shocked second-placed Barnet 4-0 in the semi-final to book their place at Wembley.
Bromley, who finished third in the regular season compared to their opponents' fifth-placed effort, managed to come from a goal behind to send Altrincham out of the final four.
With reaching the fourth tier of English football on the line, here it is 90 min preview of the National League play-off finals.

Bromley attack Ben Krauhaus had to be ruled out early in their win over Altrincham and Louis Dennis, who will replace him on the day, should make the starting XI.
Center forward Michael Cheek has 21 league goals this season and can prove the difference between Wembley excitement and heartache for his side.
Bromley predicted fixture vs Solihull Moors (3-4-3): Smith; Webster, Grant, Reynolds; Weston, Arthurs, Charles, Odutayo; Dennis, Cheek, Whitely.
Jay Benn was brought off at half-time against Barnet but could be cleared to start again on Sunday. Otherwise, Kyle Morrison is a natural for the manager and former Brighton defender Andy Whing.
While Bromley will look to Cheek for inspiration, Tahvon Campbell has been electric during the play-offs, grabbing half of their eight goals.
Solihull Moors predicted fixture vs Bromley (4-2-3-1): Hayes; Clarke, Morrison, Whitmore, Newton; Osborne, Maycock; Sbarra, Stevens, Shade; Campbell.
Bromley and Solihull Moors are separated by just five points in the regular season but their hopes of escape from the National League will come down to a direct shot at Wembley.
The Moors are not resting much as they have played two games in the snow against Bromley so far and the former ended up winning 3-0 against the Ravens.
They could beat their last opponents again this weekend.
Prediction: Bromley 1-0 Solihull Moors
