Her distinctive, elegant style struck a chord and word spread fast. Demand grew as brides across England clamoured for an original Ellis Bridals creation. The brand blossomed, carving a place at the forefront of British bridal-wear. Believing that you should work surrounded by what you love, in the 1960s Ada opened her central London Atelier. Now moving into its fourth generation, the Ellis legacy continues with Ada\u2019s great-grandson James Ellis. True to Ada\u2019s words, family bonds have kept the heart of Ellis Bridals in London, where it has always been.

Tell us a little about the history of the brand The founder and original designer Ada Ellis honed her craft by creating bespoke dresses for London\u2019s early 20th Century aristocracy. The birth of Ellis Bridals came when on a bright January day in 1910 Ada herself walked down the aisle to marry Sam in the very first Ellis wedding gown. Her distinctive, elegant style struck a chord and word spread fast. Demand grew as brides across England clamoured for an original Ellis Bridals creation. The brand blossomed, carving a place at the forefront of British bridal-wear. Believing that you should work surrounded by what you love, in the 1960s Ada opened her central London Atelier. Now moving into its fourth generation, the Ellis legacy continues with Ada\u2019s great-grandson James Ellis. True to Ada\u2019s words, family bonds have kept the heart of Ellis Bridals in London, where it has always been. We are very proud to be the oldest bridal house in the world.
