The purpose of the ALICE experiment at the LHC is the study of the QuarkGluon Plasma (QGP) formed in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions, a stateof matter in which quarks and gluons are deconfined. The properties of thisstate of strongly-interacting matter can be accessed through the study of lightvector mesons ($\rho$, $\omega$ and $\phi$). Indeed, the strange quark content($s\bar{s}$) of the $\phi$ meson makes its study interesting in connection withthe strangeness enhancement observed in heavy-ion collisions. Moreover, $\rho$and $\omega$ spectral function studies give information on chiral symmetryrestoration. Vector meson production in pp collisions is important as abaseline for heavy-ion studies and for constraining hadronic models. We presentresults on light vector meson production obtained with the muon spectrometer ofthe ALICE experiment in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s}$=7 TeV. Production ratios,integrated and differential cross sections for $\phi$ and $\omega$ arepresented. Those results are extracted for $p_{\rm T} > 1$ GeV/$c$ and $2.5 < y< 4$.
