The 1.85-mile-long ivory train, worn by 17-year-old model Ema Dumitrescu, floated high above a main boulevard in Romania's capital on Tuesday.
The Guinness Book of World Records recognised the item on the silk and lace gown as the longest train, beating the previous record held by a Dutch designer.
Pedestrians, however, didn't seem to make much of the event, organised by gown's creators: the Andree Salon fashion house and the organisers of this year's biannual Wedding Fair in Bucharest.
A few bystanders looked up at the balloon, but many others ignored it.
The train, which took 100 days to stitch, was crafted by a team of 10 seamstresses, said salon spokeswoman Lavinia Lascae.
4,700 metres of taffeta, 5.5 metres of Chantilly lace, 45 metres of lining, 1,857 sewing needles and 150 spool threads were used in the creation of the gown and train.
The lace was imported from France, while the taffeta and other fabrics were purchased from Italy, costing approximately £5,000, she added.
Beating a Dutch designer to the record had an added dimension for Romanians, as many are still angry after the Netherlands opposed its entry into the European Union's visa-free travel zone.
Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte recently demanded that Romania and Bulgaria do more to reform their justice systems and combat corruption and organised crime before he supported integration.
"If the Netherlands does not allow us into Europe, we'll take them out of the world records book," said Alin Caraman, an organizer of the Wedding Fair.
In 2009, a Chinese bride famously got married in a 1.4mile-long wedding dress that took more than 200 guests over three hours to unroll.
The previous record for the world's longest train stood at 2,488 metres.
羅馬尼亞模特兒20日展示1款裙擺長1.85英里(約3公里)的婚紗，刷新荷蘭保持的最長紀錄，創下金氏世界新紀錄。
羅馬尼亞首都布加勒斯特20日舉行每半年1次的婚妙展，由安德瑞沙龍婚紗公司以絲綢及蕾絲製作而成的婚紗，在模特兒搭乘熱氣球升高後，飄逸的長裙擺令人驚嘆。
婚紗公司發言人說，這件婚紗用了自義大利進口4700公尺的絲綢，45公尺的內襯和由法國進口的蕾絲。
這件別緻的婚紗動用10位裁縫，使用1857隻縫針，費時100天完成，花費約5000英鎊(約新台幣23萬4300 元)。
報導指出，由於荷蘭政府反對羅馬尼亞加入歐洲聯盟免簽證旅遊區，擊敗荷蘭拿下最長婚紗世界紀錄，對羅馬尼亞有另一層深意。
荷蘭總理呂特最近要求羅馬尼亞及保加利亞政府，落實改革司法制度，並打擊貪污與組織犯罪，才會支持羅馬尼亞加入歐盟免簽證旅遊區。
婚紗展覽籌備人卡拉曼說，如果荷蘭不歡迎羅馬尼亞，「那我們就把他們的世界紀錄拿走」。早先，荷蘭保持的世界紀錄是2488公尺長婚紗。
