Dear Nick,

Fairy-tale wedding on a grand scale (Princess Diana and Prince Charles)
http://icwales.icnetwork.co.uk/0750expats/newsletter/page.cfm?method=full&objectid=12035746

The world's longest wedding dress train (at that time) measured a
record 670 ft. Made by Hege Lorence and Rolf Rotset on June 1, 1996,
it was carried by 186 bridemaids and page boys.

Dear Marianne, 

There are very few non-celeb and non-record weddings that have a train
of longer than 100 feet. I will try to look-up some more links and
post them as a comment.

The original question did not mention that you were looking for
non-celeb and non-record trains otherwise I would have taken it up
accordingly.

Have a great day!
