Alterations on Antique Lace Dress

I will be getting married in about a year in Northern Virginia, and I will be wearing my mother and grandmother's antique lace dress for the ceremony.  It will definitely need some alterations.  I've read some great reviews for Estee Livioco and Angie Cavallaro on here, but I'm wondering if anyone knows if either of them have experience with antique lace?  Or does anyone know of a seamstress in the area who does?

    I highly recommend Angie. I know that she's reconstructed antique dresses for brides before and she has a lot of experience. She's also the nicest person ever!

    I would also suggest Le Star Bridal on King St. in Alexandria. Their alterationist Angel is very sweet and very very skilled.
