When the Junebug team was down in LA last month, we were thrilled to be able to visit the Monique Lhuillier Flagship boutique on Melrose Place. During our trip we met with dozens of brides and professionals, and when it came to wedding fashion, Monique's name was on the tip of everyone's tongue! Looking at these pictures, is there any wonder why? This. Shop. Is. Gorgeous! It's wedding dress heaven. Light and airy and incredibly chic, it feels inspirational and welcoming all at once. The women trying on dresses while we were there looked completely blissed out (and we were completely blissed out just getting the tour!) It's pretty, pretty perfection everywhere you look, and the ladies who work there couldn't be more knowledgeable or more helpful.

Recently the Monique Lhuillier brand has branched out and partnered with Royal Doulton to create a beautiful line of dining and giftware inspired by the fabrics and materials that go into Monique's wedding dress designs. We saw the many variations of the china, flatware and glassware available and we fell head over heels in love! If I had to register for china today, I know just where I would go!

I adore all the tiny details that make each piece so special, and the fact that they're durable enough for everyday use. The dots, bows, scallops, and delicate metallic edging would make each cup of coffee, bowl of soup, or evening meal all that much more of a delight. Visit the Monique Lhuillier for Royal Doulton website to see the full collection and to find a registry or retailer near you.
