La Sposa brides -- alterations recs?

Hi all,

I'm not a frequenter of this board because I'm getting married in MN. But I live in Chicago and my dress just came in! 

It's a La Sposa, and I know those are a bit trickier to work with so I want an alterations person who is familiar with the line. Anyone know of someone?

Much thanks in advance!

    Why are La Sposa dresses trickier? Just wondering. I have one for my July wedding:)

    My alterations person is a dress maker as well, so I feel like she can do things other alterations people can't. You could try her, I know nothing about LaSposa though.

    I'm actually not sure how they're different other than that they are all made with a built-in bustier. The shop I bought it from said it was a good idea to use a tailor whose familiar with the line and how they're built.

    I'm sure anyone can do it, I guess I just thought better to be safe than sorry!
