I haven't heard of any of those people, but I am getting mine done at Neldas Tailors.  There's another thread about this further down on the page that has a few recommendations as well.

Hi CharStensrud! I'm getting mine done at Triana Tailors. I sifted through so many reviews before I chose to go there and get fitted because I knew I didn't want to run around town pricing out different seamstresses. I will say that she was more expensive than I expected ($280 to take it in at the sides and add a buslte - but that may be the norm) but I was really happy with how the fitting went and feel confident she'll do a great job. She even helped me realize that I was wearing the dress too low on my body (its strapless) and that pulling it up would elongate my torso. Genius!

HTH and good luck in your search!
