Perfect wedding dress

Fifi was amazing to work with. She did a beautiful job on the alterations, the wedding dress had lots of delicate beadwork that she kept intact while also making sure the dress fit me perfectly. She always made me feel like such a princess whenever I put on the dress, which always made going in a fun time!

Dress of My Dreams

Not only does Fifi have beautiful quality dresses at great costs, her tailoring is immaculate. She puts heart and care into every bride. As a plus sized bride I was nervous I wouldn’t find anything in time (I had a short engagement), but Fifi instantly assured me she was going to help me and she went to work right away. I instantly felt at home with her and when I told her what I envisioned she helped me find the dress of my dreams. Everyone keeps talking about my dress even after the wedding. I now moved out of state, but I still plan to make the five hour trip to work with Fifi again. She is actually preserving my dress (another service she offers) as we’ll speak. She is the ONLY one I trust to do so.

Fifi's helped me find and fit the perfect wedding dress for my special day!

I bought my wedding dress at Fifi's and I am so happy that I did! The entire process, along with both Amanda and Fifi, was so perfect and happy. Amanda was able to completely understand what I was looking for in a dress and helped my find the absolute perfect dress for me. She was so kind the entire process and made the whole process, which I was worried would be stressful, so light and joyful.
Fifi was able to alter my wedding gown to fit me like a glove!! I live in Baltimore and had my wedding in the Chicago suburbs so I was only in town a few times. In only two appointments she was able to do everything needed to my dress. She also helped guide me in the right direction for the perfect jewelry to wear.
I am so thankful for them. :)

Beyond Amazing

Fifi and her daughter are absolutely amazing humans! You will not be disappointed when arriving, they treat you like family and make you feel so comfortable. They have an eye for your vision and they execute it flawlessly. Fifi’s bridal and custom tailoring is your one stop shop. Not only does it carry off the rack options that are absolutely drop dead gorgeous gowns but also alterations are conveniently done there too! I got engaged back in November 2021 I went to hundreds of stores even traveled out of state in hopes to find my vision of my dress with no luck. Time was running out and I couldn’t order a dress anymore I only had time to buy off rack. June 6th 2021 I found Fifi! The first dress she had me try on was the dress I bought! I’m telling you Fifi is my fairy godmother and her daughter is my Angel! If I could give more stars I would!

An outstanding experience!

Fifi was absolutely AMAZING! I brought in my wedding dress (the boutique I bought mine from ordered a size way too short) and Fifi reassured me that she could help and add lace at the bottom and no one would notice. She did a FLAWLESS job and I now feel so confident and beautiful in my dress. I wouldn't trust anyone else with my wedding dress except her. The whole process was amazing. I came in as a stranger and left as family. Her daughter Amanda was so amazing to work with too. Honestly, working with Fifi and her daughter has been one of the best parts of my wedding planning experience. I’ll be sure to add pictures after my wedding. :) HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Highly Recommend!!

I have to say - going to Fifi’s was one of the best choices I made for my wedding. I made it to the week before my wedding date when I realized I never got alterations done for my dress and I scrambled for a seamstress to take me in. Every place I called either said I was crazy or never returned my calls. Fifi responded right away, made me appointment for the next day, and didn’t make me feel awful for waiting so long. Fifi is kind, hilarious, honest, and does whatever it takes to make her clients happy. She managed to add a bustle, fix my sleeves, and shorten the length of the dress in 4 days. I felt more confident in the dress after seeing all the changes and I was just so blessed that Fifi took personal time to work on my dress. Her shop is gorgeous (I wish I had gone there to look at the wedding dress selection as well) and it’s amazing the variety of garments she does alterations on. Pricing is incredibly fair and you are going to get the most amazing service. I can’t recommend her enough and I look forward to going back in the future.

Fifi is the absolute best!

Fifi is absolutely amazing. We had a major dress issue occur (not her fault) just one week before my wedding date and she worked extra hours to save the day and have my dress perfect for my wedding day. I couldn't recommend her more!

Fairytale come to life

Fifi was my fairy godmother! The whole staff is so caring and very professional. Fifi truly is beyond talented! She brought my vision to life for all of my wedding events!! She helped me design and had my engagement party dress made, I got my bridal shower dress from her and she altered my wedding dress. Not to mention all the jewelry and accessories I got from her! All of my dresses fit me like a glove!!! She did such a beautiful job, I can’t even express how beautiful I felt on my wedding day! And to all of my wedding events for that matter! She and her staff helped me put all my looks together and did not miss a single detail! I can’t express how grateful I am for Fifi and her staff! Look no further, this is an amazing place. Every girl deserves to feel like a princess for her wedding and that is exactly how Fifi and her staff made me feel.
