One thing I really believe no matter where you will be having your print made is that you should deliver them a file that is the correct proportions for the print you will be ordering and not allow them to guess what should be cropped out from your full 5D image. At a minimum you need to crop off about 662 pixels from the long side (one end or both) as you see fit if you expect an 11x14 that fills the paper. Since you are converting from RAW and polishing the image anyway, you might as well throw out the part that you want gone rather than making someone else guess what you are thinking.
When you upload the file, there is a simple crop preview that allows you set this much faster than in Photoshop. I actually prefer using this.
