20 Looks, Couture and Mallorca — Ida Lanto & Niklas: Behind the Scenes at the Wedding
In our podcast episode with Ida and Niklas Lanto Andersson, we sit down with our cover couple for a conversation about love, aesthetics and the wedding that transformed Mallorca into their very own cinematic backdrop.
We get to follow their story from those very early days, through the proposal on a pier by the Mediterranean, and on to the planning of a wedding where feelings always came first.
For Ida Lanto, this wasn’t just another beautiful wedding. As a couture designer, she has been creating wedding dresses for 15 years – for everyone else. Now it was her turn. For her own wedding, she designed three looks of her own, whilst also creating around 20 dresses for friends and family who were also part of the day. The result was a whole world of couture, where every look contributed to the overall picture.
When a place becomes a life plan
The conversation moves between the personal and the visual, from how Niklas had long harboured the plan to propose at the very spot where they once shared a baguette and wine at sunset, to how they created a city wedding in Palma together that felt more like a film than a classic destination wedding. This is an episode about style, love and daring to do everything your own way.
“For us, it was never about what was right in the moment, but about creating something that felt right forever.”
When feeling takes the lead
What runs through the whole story is the balance between control and emotion. Despite a world of couture, carefully selected settings and months of planning, it was never perfection that took centre stage — but the experience. A wedding that was allowed to come alive, evolve and, at times, surprise. Where every moment, whether planned or spontaneous, became part of the whole.
Three insights from Ida & Niklas about their wedding
- Let the feeling guide you, not perfection. Not everything will go exactly as planned, and that’s OK. What matters is how it feels, not whether every detail is spot on.
- Dare to think beyond the conventional. Their city wedding in Palma shows that you don’t have to stick to what’s expected. Find a venue and a format that reflect who you are, not tradition.
- Take a step back and experience what you’ve created. During the evening, step away for a moment. Look at your guests, the atmosphere, the whole picture. That’s when you’ll really have time to take it all in.
