Grand Ledge is close enough I would go there, Mason is a bit far. (I live on the west side of Lansing)

If you want to head to the east side of town, Hilda Schmidt is awesome.  You can contact here through The Wedding Bell in Okemos.

I agree with gailpete...Hilda did mine and 2 BM dresses.  All were fantastic.

I went to a local woman who works out of her home. Beckers recommended her and she did a great job...she also worked on one of the bridesmaid dresses too. Her name is Kelly Wheaton, the business is called Fantastic Alterations out of Haslett. Very reasonably priced too.
