Getting my dress steamed...where?

I bought my dress from David's bridal, but am having a seamstress put a custom belt on the dress. David's told me once someone else alters the dress they won't touch it! Now I don't know where to go to have it steamed/pressed before the wedding??? I've got five months, but would like to avoid going to a dry cleaners, I've heard horror stories! I live in the city, but am also open to bringing it somewhere in the northwest burbs. Ideas/recommendations??? :)

    Could your seamstress steam it? My seamstress did, but then it was in a bag when she transported it so she suggested I get a little hand steamer.  My mom found one at Bed Bath and Beyond. I haven't tried it out yet, but my seamstress suggested using filtered or distilled water just in case.
