Everyone was so kind and helpful! Fifi has so much knowledge and experience - I was not worried about my dress for a second. The alterations were perfect and the my bridesmaids were able to do the bustle in under 5 minutes. I will be recommending Fifi’s to everyone I know who is getting married

I couldn’t be happier coming to Fifi and Amanda with my wedding dress. They were so kind, personable, and just lovely to work with. I brought my dress in on short notice after already being turned away by another place. Fifi altered my dress to fit me perfectly, and made the dress look even better than the original design. Fifi is so talented and truly skilled at what she does. Amanda was so sweet in assisting me as well. They make a great team and took away so much of my wedding stress! I highly recommend them for any alterations you may need!!

Fifi's was a last minute addition to the many bridal shops I visited to find my wedding dress. I am very picky and also my tastes evolved throughout the month-long search on a pretty strict budget. Amanda and Fifi and Maria were wonderful - not only did they "start from the beginning" and had me try on various shapes and designs, the shop is very well curated with lovely dresses that were well within my price range. I was overwhelmed in other shops by the sheer amount or assistants who didn't quite understand my needs or those who showed me dresses just outside my budget. Fifi's decades of wedding experience - which she then passed to Amanda - had them unerringly find my dress and within my budget or making it clear what would need to be done for the dress to be perfect. I went back four (!) times - all those times they were so accommodating and eager to help. I bought my dress and now can't wait for next June for fittings. Oh, and they have a good selection of wedding dresses for guests too - my SIL purchased her dress during one of the visits! For those who live in Chicago and don't want to pay Chicago prices (esp for alterations... one place wanted minimum $1700 for any alteration) - talk to Fifi.

Fifi & Amanda were an absolute pleasure to work with! From finding my dream dress at the first appointment, to taking it home at the last, everything was smooth, efficient & well communicated. I can't recommend them enough!

Fifi is truly fabulous - she was so kind, helpful and skilled. She made sure that my dress fit perfectly and that I was happy with how I looked. I am so glad that I trusted her with my dress. I would recommend her services to any bride in the future - she made me feel so comfortable and I was truly blown away by her skills. The dress was absolutely perfect and I felt so beautiful because of Fifi!

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Fifi's Bridal & Custom Tailoring, and it was a wonderful experience. Fifi, the owner, is a true gem in the bridal world. From the moment I stepped into her boutique, she radiated warmth and friendliness that immediately put me at ease.Fifi's dedication to ensuring I felt beautiful and comfortable in my dress was unparalleled. She took the time to listen to my vision, my concerns, and my preferences. Her expertise and attention to detail shone through as she offered invaluable advice, never imposing her ideas but rather enhancing mine.The personal attention I received made me feel like I was her top priority, and she went above and beyond to ensure my dress was everything I had envisioned.Other things worth noting: private parking lot located behind the building, bring cash if you want to avoid credit card processing fees, and appointments are recommended if not required.

Working with Fifi and her daughter Amanda was such an amazing experience! They had such a beautiful selection of wedding dresses and my mom even purchased one of their mother of the bride dresses!! The entire process was very easy and seamless. Fifi makes you feel so comfortable during each fitting and goes above and beyond to make sure everything looks and feels right. I also loved that all my dress alterations were done with Fifi directly and she is an incredibly talented seamstress. When it was time to pick up my wedding dress everything looked and fit perfectly. I got compliments all night long on how beautiful it was. You will not regret working with Fifi and Amanda!!Service: Dress alterations

Fifi took incredible care of me in preparation for my wedding day. My dress was tailored to perfection and looked amazing all day. I’d recommend Fifi’s to anyone looking for not only their wedding dress but a dress for any special occasion

Can’t say enough good things about Fifi’s. They were close to my house, had great reviews, and worked my appointments for my bridal dress alterations around my crazy work schedule. She assured me that alterations would be completed in time as we were pressed for time due to manufacturer errors in getting me the correct dress (ordered from another dress location). She fitted the dress perfectly to my body and completed all additional alterations I had dreamed of. With a week until my big event, she even altered my rehearsal dress to better fit my body. She is amazing! Definitely encourage others to use her and will definitely be using her for my future alterations. Thanks for helping me look beautiful, Fifi!

Fifi tailored my wedding gown & my step daughter’s dress for the wedding beautifully and in a jiffy, as it was an item I cut way too close. She was professional and thorough and is very talented! I just dropped off another dress to her (with more time for her to work with) and can check it off my list with the trust that it will be perfect upon pickup. Check her out and meet the shop dog, Simba!Services: Wedding gown alterations
