Fifi's Story

Fifi did not speak one word of English when she moved to the United States from Greece nearly 38 years ago, but while she had yet to master the English language, she had mastered another skill that made her new U.S. neighbors take notice, Sewing. Having started sewing at age 10, Fifi combined her gift of sewing with her love of people and warm personality to make a difference for the people around her through her work.

Customers Who Choose Fifi's

"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!!"

Madalyn Kozuch

"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's Tailor Wedding Wire Online Reviews

"As a bride who knew what she wanted, Amanda provided and more! She was able to elevate my vision and give me what I truly wanted and so much more. Amanda and Fifi made me feel so welcomed, beautiful and loved and did everything they could to make my wedding dress a dream! I’m so happy I went to Fifi’s first and found my dress without feeling overwhelmed. I said yes to my dress here and it will forever be such a magical time and place for me! Did I mention, the dress is to die for!! I’m love and impressed all at once!"
