Need a suggestion for dress alterations on the Northshore!

I originally bought my dress from David's bridal but I am looking to make some alterations to the dress and the store told me they could not "alter the integrity" of the dress according to the designer. So I am looking to take it to an outside seamstress so I can make my zipper back a corset back, along with adding a bustle. I am so nervous about taking my dress to be altered though. Has anyone had any good experiences with seamstresses on the Northshore, preferably someone in Slidell, but i'll drive anywhere if the person does great work!

    My seamstress is in Lakeview (not exactly Northshore, sorry!) but she was amazing.  My corset back came out perfectly (she made my dress from scratch).  She is incredibly fast.  She could probably get your work done in a week if you needed it that fast.   She made my entire gown in like 3 weeks.  She's incredibly reasonably priced too. My entire gown was 200 dollars for the labor (I supplied the fabric).   It was very well made.
