    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!

    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.

    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.

    Bridal fittings

    Fifi has been amazing and she’s knowledgeable about EVERYTHING. I went in with one idea of how my bridal dress should fit and she blew my mind with all her suggestions. The fit was beyond perfect and I cried (with joy) each time I put the dress on and saw her work bring my dreams to reality.

    Fifi is the best

    I ordered my wedding dress from BHLDN so I needed to find another shop to do my alterations. She did a beautiful job and went above & beyond (steaming my veil that I bought elsewhere, adding buttons to the zipper last minute, etc.) Highly recommend Fifi and her daughter!

    Wonderful experience

    Fifi is absolutely amazing. Hands down this was the best experience I have had wedding dress shopping! Visiting some Chicago big name stores and some other suburban recognized named stores, I can honestly say that nobody beats Fifi. She knew exactly what I wanted and her alterations are perfections. Fifi is not just a professional in the field of wedding dresses- but she is truly an all around talent for everything wedding related.

    Love love love

    Fifi is AMAZING!!! She is so talented and a wonderful seamstress. She is such a people’s person. I had a difficult request of making a sweetheart neckline with modest sleeves. And she nailed the task! It looks like it was made that way. Thanks for everything!

    I had a great experience

    I’m so grateful that I found this place so close to home. To be honest I really wish I had shopped here for my dress because the dresses are absolutely gorgeous. I had my wedding dress altered here kind of last minute. I lost some weight from the time I originally got it til now and it had to be taken in a couple inches. They were able to get it all done in time. They are all so sweet, personable, professional, and helpful! I’ll definitely recommend this place to my friends when they get married or have a special occasion!

    Highly Recommend!!

    Fifi and Fifi's Bridal is absolutely amazing!! My mom went there to get her mother of the bride dress, and we were blown away by the experience. Not only did Fifi go above and beyond to help my mom find her dress last minute, but she gained a lifelong customer through the experience! My mom's dress was gorgeous and contrasted perfectly with the bridal party! I highly recommend Fifi to anyone looking for anything bridal wear related!!

    Love My Dress!

    I only had two weeks to find a wedding dress. Not knowing what I would be able to find on such short notice, I went to Fifi’s. I could not have had a more positive experience. Not only did they find a beautiful dress, they altered it to perfection.

    It was such a pleasure working with you. You look beautiful. If you ever need anything else, please let us know!

    Would Highly Recommend!

    Fifi helped me to find a wedding dress I absolutely loved and altered it so that it was the perfect fit. She made the process a lot of fun and took the time to make sure she understood my vision. At my final dress fitting, my mother in-law was still looking for a dress and Fifi not only picked one out that she loved, but tailored it within a few days. I could not have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend!

    Fifi is the best!

    Fifi is the sweetest with amazing talent! I came to her with a very detailed and intricate wedding dress that was a floor sample that was 5 sizes too big and stained in some areas. She went through 3 alterations with me to ensure that it fit me absolutely perfectly, and she did not disappoint. The dress fit like it was absolutely made for me and had it cleaned and steamed like it was brand new. She gave me great suggestions and advice for jewelry, shoes, and veil, and truly transformed my dress. Thank you Fifi!!!

    Look no further, Fifi is the best!

    Fifi is AMAZING! I purchased my wedding dress at a different bridal studio and when it arrived, they had ordered the wrong size. My dress was 2 sizes too big. When I brought it to Fifi I was nervous because it was an expensive dress that required a lot of intricate alterations. Fifi was able to magically alter the dress to fit me perfectly. I cannot thank her enough for saving my dress! If I ever need alterations again, I would not even consider going elsewhere. Fifi is so talented, professional, and kind. I wish I would've bought my wedding dress at her shop, she had a beautiful selection. Thank you Fifi and team for making this experience so positive and perfect!!

    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!

    Make an appointment, you won't regret it!

    By far the best place to go for your wedding needs. Fifi is an absolute treasure, and you can tell she truly loves people. She works so hard to make you happy and welcomes people in as if they're old friends. The store itself is lovely and filled with the most gorgeous dresses. Casablanca Bridal and Sophia Tolli are two of my favorite bridal lines. There are lovely seating areas for your bridal party, complete with 3 pedestals to stand on and see the gown from all angles. Make sure to stop by, meeting Fifi has easily been one of the best parts of my wedding planning experience.

    You'll be in great hands!

    I first heard about Fifi's from a friend of mine who went to Fifi to fix her blundered wedding gown alterations from another shop. My friend's gown turned out beautifully!
    So naturally when it came time to look for mine we went to Fifi's. I was running late and Fifi pulled some dresses based on my friend's and family's recommendations (we had gone dress shopping before). We were looking for sample dresses since the wedding was only 3 months away. When she saw me she pulled additional dresses. And what an eye! The first dress she pulled after seeing me is the one I fell in love with!! I did not even want to try on others. However, Fifi suggested to try on another dress just to make sure - which is highly appreciated and shows how much she cares for her customers. Fifi will tell you the honest truth but will not pressure you. She takes the time to explain how the dress should be altered and why she is suggesting the alterations. The close timetable didn't make her sweat and she was very understanding. I know my dress is in good hands and I can thank her for helping me feel like a beauty on my wedding day! Highly Recommend!

    Great experience!

    I ordered my wedding dress from Fifi’s Tailor in Elmhurst. They carried a wide variety of Sophia Tolli dresses which was exactly what I was looking for. FiFi is very involved with every process in her business so I really felt like everything was in good hands. My dress arrived ahead of schedule and I was called immediately for my first fitting. She and her associates made everything much more comfortable and simpler. The shop is cozy and comfortable, the associates are knowledgeable and because I always met with them at specific appointment times, you really feel like the star. The alterations were perfect, and I was so happy with my dress on the big day. I highly recommend Fifi’s Tailor to anyone who really wants someone who absolutely knows what they’re doing to handle this huge part of your wedding.

    Amazing experience with last minute dress change

    I called Ms. FiFi 6 days before my wedding in search of a dress that made me feel beautiful and sexy. Without an appointment Ms. FiFi welcomed me in. She was very patient as I tried on dress after dress. It was the very last dress that originally was too tight, too long, and needed straps. She was able to alter the dress literally while it was on my body to fit perfectly. Ms. FiFi made all this possible in two days. I loved my wedding dress and felt beautiful on my wedding day.

    Fifi's Bridal & Custom Tailoring's reply:

    Toya, It was such a pleasure to work with you. I am so grateful for your business. Your bridal pictures are lovely.
