IRINI'S ORIGINALS

on my property and stole over a million dollars of my Personal and Business Propeperty which is "Grand Larceny in the First Degree Crime". They are CRIMINALS! They stole my business inventory, all my lifetime hard earned belongings and intentionally engaged in multiple Civil and Federal violations and unlawful conduct. I continue to suffer and being deprived of my right to my property. These two criminals are being investigated by FBI, Courts and Authorities. BE CAREFUL!!

d!

stunning wedding dress that made me feel like a true bride! The selection was fantastic, and I was equally impressed with the beautiful bridesmaids dresses we chose. Every detail was handled with care, and their expertise made the entire process enjoyable and stress-free - including the amazing in-house alternations that they provided. I can’t recommend Irene's Originals enough for anyone looking for the perfect dress and a supportive team! Thank you for making my bridal dreams come true!

exactly what dress I was looking for while still considering my budget. I felt completely comfortable with her and the experience was an absolute dream! I came from out of town and she was always willing to work with me despite her busy schedule, and the alterations made the dress appear like it was made for me. Thank you so much Nikki, I felt so beautiful and you made everything work out so smoothly!

bvious how passionate Niki is about helping you find the wedding dress of your dreams and making the fit perfect for you. The extra detail Niki put into the bustle was amazing and it didn’t look like some lazy button placed at the bottom of my butt. It actually looked like the dress had all of a sudden been altered to no longer have a train. They do all their own alterations and actually take your input and vision into consideration. Niki knows so much about these dresses and thinks of things you never even thought to consider about the dress and the way it will look on your wedding day. I will always recommend Irini’s as the place everyone should go to find their dream dress!

d to try directly from designers, which ended up being the one! Only reason for the 4 stars, was I wish I had a better idea of their required in-house alterations, the pricing of them, and I wasn't in love with my bustle. Just wish I had a few options or something.

dress she thought I would love. Spoiler alert-she was right! Even though she already knew what I would love, she gave me and my family time to go through the store to pick out anything I wanted to try on and I never felt rushed even though we stayed there for over 2 hours. I also used Nikki for my alterations and it was one of the best decisions that I made. I had a large dress and I was worried about how the bustle would look but Nikki made it look so natural. It took my maid of honor a good 10 minutes to finish all of the ties and buttons, but Nikki will add whatever it takes to make the bustle look fantastic. I would recommend Irini's originals to anyone!

ked into Irini's 10 years after I was last there, Niki recognized me and my mom immediately! It speaks so highly of Niki that she truly gets to know her brides and their family and remembers them even a decade later! I cannot speak highly enough of my experience with Irinis. I came in with an idea of what style I wanted. Niki took her time, pulling dresses of the styles I wanted and a few styles that I didn’t realize I wanted. I ended getting a dress that was a combination of what I wanted and what I didn’t realize I would want. She also customized my dress giving it a one of kind look. Niki always took her time and we would go through every possible way we could make this dress unique. She always stayed true to my original vision and would keep bringing me back in to making sure we had this dress perfect. She made sure my dress had two looks to it - one for the ceremony and one for the reception. My guests were shocked that my reception look was the same dress. During the evening, I had to show numerous guests how I got two looks from one dress. The attention to detail and knowledge Niki has gives a bride peace of mind when picking out their wedding dress. 10/10 would recommend! Told every bride I know that you must go to Irinis!

because any idea I could think up, she would create. She is a TALENTED, GODDESS GENIUS and we do not deserve her. It's taken me months to write a review simply because I've gotten so emotional every time I sat to write one. So this is more of a novel than a review, but I have too many amazing things to say to keep it short. My very first visit I was scared to share my full vision because I thought I was being a little extreme, but when Niki shared the amazing creations she has made, so I asked about making overskirts with some color in them. Niki got right into showing me some dresses she could make into overskirts; we even layered dresses to get the full vision & then I was hooked. Would you believe this genius took 2 dresses and made me the perfect combination of details for a classic dress with a new back and my one of a kind overskirt? Cause she did!! Once my fittings began Niki, my mom, and her mom were a gang of besties. I looked forward to seeing them every fitting and seeing the amazing dress(es) she created for me. Even my veil was one of a kind, because again I shared my vision and she made it happen. The gratitude and love I feel for Niki and her family is unparalleled. I wish every bride could create this bond and have this experience with their dress designer. I'll am eternally grateful to Irini's Originals for making all of my dreams come true!!

heartening. Please stay away unless you want to be ghosted/disappointed. They have my dream dress, and I’m scrambling to find it somewhere else. Niki responded to 1 text message and said she would follow up, and has since ignored all my attempts to reach out to them. This has been over 4-5 weeks.

with alterations. I didn’t even have to show her pictures and she was somehow able to understand and create my dream dress from a strapless gown- completely changing the neckline and adding sleeves and it was PERFECTION. It was one of a kind and also the sleeves were detachable giving me a second reception look and more freedom to dance. Seriously cannot recommend her enough. She’s also so fun to be around & speedy with her appointments which is super appreciated while wedding planning. The absolute best!!

were kept waiting for 45 minutes beyond our scheduled time. We felt much better about it when Nikki finally joined us and gave us her full attention for my appointment. I purchased a sample dress (at a discount) because Nikki kept raving about how it already fit me perfectly. I expressed that it felt tight, and Nikki kept telling me that this was how a “structured” dress feels and that she could zip me into it, no problem. She also said there was room to let it out and there was additional fabric that would make letting the dress out easy. When I pointed out that the beading behind and under my arms was scratching me, she said it could be ribbon-lined. So, we purchased the dress and walked out with it that day. I went back with my mom & future MIL to look for their dresses a few weeks later. We had an appointment. When we arrived, Nikki told us she was busy with other appointments, and we were welcome to help ourselves to dresses in the back room. I had to help both moms find dresses, zip and clip them into it and Nikki was nowhere to be found. When we tried to grab her and ask her for her help and opinions, she seemed extremely annoyed that we wanted her help. However, my MIL purchased a dress that night. Nikki tried to sell her the sample, but my MIL insisted it was too small and ended up purchasing a dress two sizes larger when Nikki finally measured her. My mom made another appointment to come back the following week and try on a dress she was considering. When she arrived, Nikki told her that the dress was still in the fitting room from the last time she was there and she could go try it on herself, with no help from Nikki. She was, of course, busy with another appointment despite the fact that my mom had made an appointment for this time. My parents felt very unwelcome, so they left without trying the dress on and my mom found her dream dress at another shop where she was waited on and made to feel so special. My MIL had to call repeatedly to check on the status of her dress. When she went to pick up her dress, Nikki had the nerve to make rude comments about my mom to my MIL! At this point, my MIL and I decided that we would go elsewhere for our alterations. I had my first dress fitting yesterday and I was nervous about the fit of the dress, which I told her. I am EXACTLY the same weight as when I purchased this dress, and the tailor told me I need an additional 4 INCHES to make this dress zip comfortably. There is NO additional fabric to let the dress out, which led me to tears during my fitting. Thankfully, this amazing woman is going to find fabric to match my dress, let it out, and is going to take some appliques from the fabric that is hemmed to cover the added fabric and make it match. When I showed her how scratched my arms were and asked her to ribbon line it, she said this is all because the dress is too small, and I should have never been sold this size. So, buyer beware: my initial experience with Nikki was semi-positive and I found a beautiful dress. But after she had our money, it all went downhill from there. From convincing me to buy a dress that didn’t fit, ignoring us in future appointments, and talking badly about my mom behind her back, she is very unprofessional. Please learn from my experience and go somewhere else.

h and got everything done in a very timely manner. She took the time to listen to my style and found a dress that was perfect. The way she bustled the dress was perfect and easy to do. It also held up the whole night making the dress look full in the photos without looking too bulky.

fferent dress, and it was absolutely perfect! Niki made me feel like a princess and was very supportive throughout the whole process. They did not have the dress in my size, but it came in very quickly. My alterations were done in a timely manner, and they were beautiful! Additionally, I had to have my alterations done well advance of my wedding as I was moving across the country. Niki offered to do additional alterations for me when I was in town the week of my wedding just in case. Fortunately I did not need them, but it was a very generous offer. Niki made me feel comfortable during what could have been a very stressful process and I am very grateful!

like family. My mom even ended up getting her mother of the bride dress there! In addition, their alterations are flawless! My dress fits me like a glove. I would highly recommend Irini’s!

etails, she and her mom worked with me to create my dream wedding gown. Niki made me feel like a princess and a bride all in one! I loved working with her. She truly became a friend along my wedding planning journey. The Irini's team is a family that you can trust! I recommend Irini's to every person who asks!

out perfect dresses and helped me narrow down what I was looking for. She was conscious of the budget, explained the payment process and was up front with everything. We will be shopping for bridesmaids here as well. I’ve been to other bridal shops with friends and they were nothing like this. I HIGHLY recommend Irini’s Originals.

king for and she nailed it! She picked the dress I ended up picking, and made the experience overall so enjoyable. I also loved that alterations we're done in house at Irini's I knew my dress was in great hands and the alterations and bustle were PERFECT! I will be recommending everyone who asks to check out Irini's and meet with NIki for their dress! We also got all my bridesmaids' dresses through Irini's which was also seamless and a good experience for all of them!

tes of me sharing my shopping experiences with her, she had picked three dresses that she knew would be perfect. All three were more on point than all of the other salons put together. The third and final dress was the ONE! Niki was the only person to also offer customizations which made me feel like I was getting a custom dress that no one else would have. She not only did all of the alterations for my dress but made suggestions on where to get the best bridal accessories. I truly felt like the best version of myself. To quote my husband: "Wow"! Save yourself some time and make an appointment with her early!

es! The team is so welcoming and willing to go above and beyond for you! Would definitely recommend!!!!

d out some great options for me at first. But - I did have one specific dress in mind and Niki went out of her way, above and beyond, to get the dress for me. I absolutely loved it and she altered it perfectly. I cannot wait to wear my dress at my wedding in August. Thank you Niki and Irini’s Originals!

y Wedding Dress and make me try it on first because she just knew I would fall in love with it and boy was she right. Also, the attention to detail with my fittings to make sure my dress fit me like a glove and that the bustle was going to be easy/stay all night dancing was perfect. Couldn’t ask for a better dress shopping experience and people. If you want the personalized experience then definitely shop here! Cant recommend it enough!

ndividual elements of dresses I loved and found a gown that incorporated all of those elements. My dress was more beautiful than I could have imagined and it was the first one I tried on! She worked with my crazy schedule to plan appointments, did an amazing job with alterations, found me the perfect veil and always took the time to check in to see how my family was doing. Great place to get mother of the bride or bridesmaids dresses as well, the selection is incredible. Cannot recommend Irini’s Originals more!

sitive experience I had! This was the second bridal shop I went to and was still very unsure of what exactly I wanted. There was such a great selection (I tried on so many dresses I don't even know how many) but Nikki was so great at figuring out what I liked/didn't like with in my budget. I said yes to the dress the day I went to Irini's and so did my mom for her Mother of the Bride dress! A few weeks later, I brought in my bridesmaids and within 30 minutes they had all picked out the dresses they wanted. Overall, we are all pleased with the professionalism, pricing, and experience there and suggest anyone in the area to make an appointment there for Bride, Mother of the Bride, and Bridesmaids dresses!

s also great with alterations.

a, which is what I thought I wanted. I tried so many beautiful dresses on and ended up with something completely different per Niki's suggestion, based on my body type! The shop is so warm, cozy, and welcoming, not like your typical "stuffy" bridal boutique. Niki gives you 100% personalized attention every time you walk in there. My mom ended up buying her dress here as well as another, and my aunt (who lives 2+ hours away) bought a dress too. Niki was great at working with all our different body types, and was completely honest about the way certain dresses fit. This is exactly what I was hoping for in a bridal shop! They were so pleasant to work with, my alterations were perfect, and they were happy to accommodate a few small last-minute requests from me a week before the wedding. There's so much stress in planning a wedding, but the only "stressful" thing about buying my dress was having to choose from the several choices I had!

ed, within my budget. She was thoughtful and accommodating about including my family, as dress shopping in the pandemic was lonely. The process from beginning to end was exciting and clear. Supporting small family business and buying tax free in DE doesn’t hurt either. :) You should buy your wedding dress from Irini’s!

blem for her and the bustle she did was perfect...such attention to detail! I would highly recommend Irini's, especially if you like supporting small/family businesses!

’d exactly what you want and can even find a way to make it customized to you!

dding day. Go to Irini's!! You will NOT be disappointed.

e than 3 or 4 tries for her to pick THE ONE! After picking the dress she was extremely accommodating when it came to alterations, scheduling and went above and beyond to make you feel safe in her space all through the craziness of covid. To make a long story short if you need a beautiful dress, whether it’s for you or your bridal party you will not be disappointed in Irinis Originals!!

encounter. I can't tell you how many times she said "I am very busy, I have customers coming in until 11 pm". The whole time I thought in my head, I'm a customer just as much as them. She runs around like a chicken with her head cut off while she is in the shop, which makes the atmosphere very hectic and uncomfortable. The last encounter I had with her she told me " I do not give a shit if you come to me for alterations. you wont be hurting my feelings, I could care less." I was completely dumbfounded when she said this to us. This was the most unprofessionalism I have witnessed in a long time.

commendation to add cap sleeves to play down my not so slim upper arms has made my dress perfect and given me more confidence to walk down the aisle. I was able to stay within budget on the cost and alterations, especially since I was buying off the rack. If you're shopping for a wedding dress, go there first! I did and didn't have to go anywhere else. They will have what you're looking for and make you look beautiful for your wedding day!

done by their team! They were super accommodating- I am from Colorado and I was able to fly in for my alterations which they finished within a weekend. Totally incredible! I would absolutely recommend Irini’s to anyone!

er. When it came to be my turn, I immediately knew where I was going to buy my dress. Niki was very communicative with me before my appointment as I talked with her about what I was looking for. The shopping appointment was great - she knew the exact styles that fit my theme and my body type. Niki is like family now as she has dressed my sister and now me for my upcoming wedding. Niki is so worth my 5+ hour drive for the shopping experience and the fittings. Her expertise is unmatched and I wouldn't trust anyone else with my wedding dress.

er too! Not only did she help me find the wedding dress of my dreams but she altered it to make it my personal own dress. Nikki and her mother put in A LOT of work to make me feel and look STUNNING in my dress. The dress was affordable and made to perfection. Nikki and her team make Irini's TRULY original. Thanks so much!!

could compare with it. The alterations were a breeze and she completed them quickly. I would absolutely recommend this bridal salon for high quality dresses and service!

dress! I had gone to a few other stores and even tried on one dress I thought at that time was the one. But this was the last place I had an appointment for and decided just to see. I originally had a certain style I was thinking for my dress which the team got some examples done. However at Thebes none of them seemed like me, and I was content with just accepting the other dress I had in mind. Nicki pushed (or maybe shoved) me into a dress she begged me to try, and I won’t lie, at first I wasn’t sure if it was to much for me. But then she showed me what she could do with alterations right there at that appointment and I fell in love! It was not a dress I would ever picture on me but she was right, and it was my dream dress. Not only was she super fun and exciting the first day I came, but was great with my parents, my mother in law, and my sister, who all love her too. Alteration appointments went smoothly and cause of Covid I had a bit of a crunch on my wedding date, but she had all the alterations (including hemming lace for an almost 8 foot train and making a beautiful under bustle for the dress) with time to spare. If you have any question at all, I 10\10 recommend coming here!!! My parents and sister already are talking about how they are going to come here doe her wedding way in the future! I can’t thank Nicki, her mom, and her entire family enough!

st sight looked a little too sheer on the top for me, but I gave it a shot and tried it on anyways. Once on I KNEW it was the one for me. Her eye for style and keeping in mind what would be the most flattering is impeccable! Unfortunately then Covid stuck and it was hard to make appointments to come back for alterations so I unfortunately had to wait until early June (my wedding was 7/18). I made one appointment Monday to figure out what should be altered and when I came back Wednesday, my dress fit me like a glove. It was perfect and I was able to bring it home! I would highly recommend Irini's Originals!

ing. The gowns they have are stunning and Niki knows what will look best on you too. They are so kind, professional, hard working and amazing .... ! Highly recommend Irini's Originals. Michelle's dress was PERFECT ! They have a wonderful selection of bridesmaids gowns, mother of the bride and grooms' gowns, ... everything!

some things you want changed, they do it all in house. This makes the process so smooth from start to finish! I have gone to them for my prom dresses and now my wedding dress and bridesmaid dresses. I could not imagine going anywhere else! They have become part of my life and have helped make me feel so beautiful on some important days in my life. I highly recommend you give them a call and make an appoinyment.

place. Matched with a lovely family owned business, I couldn't believe I found my dress here and it was the ONLY place I went to! I made an appointment here during one of their sample sales and boy did it not disappoint! I tried on one dress and the stylist and I both knew it wasn't for me. However, legit the second dress brought my mother and I to tears and less than 30 minuntes into my 2 hour appointment, I was done! They have so many styles and I was so lucky to find the dress I had been stalking on Pintrest here for a great deal! I came in for a long sleeved dress and they said they didn't have too many but of the not so many, I found my dress. What followed was appointments of alterations, of which they do in house with Irini herself, along with her daughter Nikki and Nikki's mother in law. They worked with me to be more covered up because I wanted a more modest and ethereal look and they did not disappoint. Irini even creatively designed/hid my bustles on my skirt to look like flowers and it just flowed so well with the dress. I wish I could buy another wedding dress from them because this experience was truly amazing. They work with you and remember you and everything is so personalized to you. Try your luck because I know this place is definitely lucky, as I found my dress so easily in their racks of pouf!

have found my dream dress. If you're not in DE, this is 100% worth the trip! Amazing family business! Can't say enough great things about the entire experience from finding the dress, having fittings, alterations, and pick up.
