After searching at a handful of LA bridal salons, I found my DREAM dress at Monique Lhuillier! I knew it was the one when I couldn't stop thinking about it, and then danced around my house when my parents told me to go for it. :) Yes, it was pricier than I had intended to spend, and I did try to find something less expensive at other bridal salons, but there was just no comparison. The quality at Monique Lhuillier is off the charts, from the gorgeous fabrics and laces, to the flattering cuts and comfort of the dresses.
My maid of honor found her dress here as well, and we both loved working with Hannah, who helped us find our perfect gowns, and Effie, who was the sweetest and most excellent tailor. After a number of fittings, both of our dresses turned out absolutely perfect and looked truly MADE for us. I only wish I could wear mine again! :)
It was such a joy working with the kind and talented staff at Monique Lhuillier leading up to my wedding- I enjoyed each and every fitting so much, and I couldn't recommend their dresses more!!
