Elite Bridal Salon – Our Story, Mission and Exclusive Collections Since 1995

Elite Bridal Salon

Our company was founded in September 1995, when we opened our very first bridal salon in Budapest’s 13th district, at Pannónia Street 12, under the name Magic Moment.

We still remember the joy and enthusiasm with which we selected our very first bridal collection. From the beginning, our goal was to offer something new, beautiful, refined and worthy of Hungarian weddings. Our initial collection featured breathtaking gowns from American and Italian designers.

We always aimed to meet the needs of engaged couples and work according to their expectations. The beauty of our dresses quickly won the hearts of brides, and this success led us to open the Elite Bridal Salon in May 1999.

 
Our Bridal Dress Selection
We started with a similar concept to our first salon, but with different models. To this day, our salon carries some of the most beautiful gowns from the world’s most renowned bridal designers.

Today, our full bridal collection can be found at the Elite Salon in Budapest, located at 87 Király Street.

We have always valued uniqueness, exceptional quality and impeccable appearance. For this reason, Elite Salon exclusively carries bridal brands not available in other wedding salons.

Our selection ranges from minimalist bridal gowns to dramatic princess‑style dresses with long trains. Brides visiting us can choose from a wide variety of models, available for both purchase and rental.

Our wedding dresses come from leading Danish, American, Russian, Italian and Spanish designers.

 
Groom Suits
We have never forgotten about the grooms. In the early years, we focused on classic elegance, offering tuxedos and morning coats. We primarily recommended Italian and Dutch designs, but by 2002 our collection expanded with high‑quality groom suits from Egon Von Fürstenberg and Mr. Ramos, made from the finest wool and silk blends.

The very first groom collection was a huge success, and ever since, many grooms have chosen their attire for one of the most important days of their lives at our salon.

More details about our groom collection can be found on our blog.

In addition to bridal and groom attire, our salon also offers evening dresses, adult bridesmaid dresses and a wide range of bridal accessories.

 
Buying a Bridal Dress
More and more brides choose to purchase their wedding dress. Ready‑to‑wear gowns can be bought using cash or card. For made‑to‑order dresses, we require a 50% deposit, after which we arrange the production of the selected gown. Custom‑ordered dresses are typically ready within 6–12 weeks.

 
Bridal Dress, Waltz Dress, Tuxedo and Morning Coat Rental
When renting, the selected dress must be reserved as soon as possible to ensure availability for the wedding day. A rental contract is prepared, including:

names of the contracting parties
model number, size and color
rental fee
included accessories
wedding date
pick‑up and return dates
More details can be found in our blog post “How Rental Works at Elite Salon.”

 
Elite Salon – More Than Just a Store
For us, Elite Salon is not simply a business — it is a place where we get to share in the joy of others.

“It’s good to work here!” — we hear this often. And it’s true. We dress happy brides and grooms, and we are honored to be part of their celebration, even in a small way.

We aim to continue contributing to these joyful moments with our expertise, our welcoming atmosphere and our constantly renewed bridal collection.

This dedication to renewal, variety and professionalism is what sets Elite Salon apart from other bridal service providers in Budapest.

You can find us at:

Elite Bridal Salon 1077 Budapest, Király utca 87.

We warmly welcome every bride and groom preparing for their special day.
