Wedding Dress Shopping: Monique Lhuillier

My little sister got engaged and now the fun begins with all the wedding plans. First stop, shopping for wedding dresses. Luckily, Monique Lhuillier, a famous wedding dress maker brand was having a truck show at their Los Angeles based boutique store.

It's important to do a lot of research and figure out which style of dress you want to try on before actually going to the store.

Monique Lhuillier dresses are known for their beautiful lace and corset body which gives you a very flattering fit. Their signature is their ribbon sash belt.

After reading the sign in sheet, they said no photos unless the dress is purchased.
Oops! Sorry!

Besides wedding dresses, they also make other gowns for different occasions. Is that a dress that Sarah Geller wore at the Golden Globes?

And they also have other lines of products like fine china and wedding invitations.

One sneak photo I grabbed while my sister was trying on a gorgeous wedding gown. Service was excellent, and they suggest making an appointment with a store consultant to ensure that you'll get the full experience. Just remember that when buying a dress, it takes roughly 6-12 months to make the alterations to the dress so make sure that this is one of the first you do. The wedding dresses here range from $6000 and up. The alterations are $640 and up.
