ISSUE FW’26
In our new FW’26 issue, we take you to the south of France and to Renée and Jan’s wedding, which was a celebration of love, friendship and style. We also sit down with Louis Abel founder Jimmy Loutfi for an in-depth interview about how his own wedding rings marked the start of a new chapter in fine jewellery, and look ahead to New York Bridal Fashion Week for the silhouettes, details and ideas that will set the tone for the coming season.

There are hotels that never go out of fashion. The Hotel Diplomat is one of them. With its iconic location on Strandvägen, overlooking Nybroviken, the hotel offers an elegant and natural setting for couples seeking something classic, well-thought-out and personalised – whether it’s preparations for the wedding day, an intimate dinner or a romantic stay after the ceremony.
Preparations in a setting that sets the tone
For many couples, the wedding begins even before the ceremony. Hotel Diplomat offers a sophisticated and harmonious setting that is perfect for wedding preparations. The light reflecting off the water and the classic rooms create an atmosphere where nervousness can give way to a sense of calm. Here, there is space for make-up, styling, photography and quiet moments together – all in a setting that feels both exclusive and safe.
A place to gather your loved ones
Weddings are as much about togetherness as they are about love. Hotel Diplomat offers bright and flexible venues that are ideal for private gatherings in connection with the wedding – such as an intimate dinner the evening before, a get-together with family and friends, or a relaxing gathering the day after. The venues can be adapted to suit the size and needs of your party, making it easy to create a personalised experience without compromising on style.
Quiet moments during the wedding weekend
Amidst all the planning, celebrations and emotions, breaks are essential. Hotel Diplomat offers a warm and inviting atmosphere that lends itself perfectly to those moments when the pace slows down – perhaps an afternoon spent with loved ones, or a quiet moment just for the two of you. It is often in these moments that memories really take hold.

The night before, or the night that never ends
For couples who want to add that extra touch to their wedding weekend, the hotel’s more intimate settings offer the chance for private evenings in elegant surroundings. Andy’s Cocktail Bar, inspired by classic Paris, is the perfect setting for pre-dinner drinks, a relaxed evening before the wedding or a celebratory send-off after the big day. For larger groups, the bar can be combined with adjoining rooms for a more private experience.

A place to unwind – together
After the ceremony, celebrations and emotions, the wedding night and the days that follow are a time for recuperation. At Hotel Diplomat, newlyweds have the opportunity to reflect on everything that has happened – in an environment where comfort, aesthetics and service come together. Here, the wedding weekend can come to a fitting conclusion, or gently continue in the form of a romantic weekend away. Hotel Diplomat is not just a hotel – it is a place where life’s big moments take shape.
