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.

Here you can read about some rather different ideas for a honeymoon
What are your thoughts on the honeymoon? Do you have to go abroad? Here in Sweden, we have plenty of romantic places and experiences that are perfect for enjoying with your partner.
01. Take a break in your own city
An absolutely brilliant alternative to the traditional honeymoon is simply to holiday in your own city. You could check into a lovely hotel for the weekend and explore parts of the city you may never have taken the time to visit before. Do what you’d normally do if you were going away somewhere: stroll hand in hand down narrow streets with an ice cream each, pop into a cosy café for a cup of coffee, or enjoy a lovely lunch together. The important thing is to do exactly what you want and feel like doing, and enjoy each other’s company. If you’re a couple who like to keep active, we can recommend taking a guided tour or going on a chocolate tasting, for example. Would you rather take it easy with as little on the agenda as possible? Then perhaps choose an all-inclusive hotel with a spa for maximum relaxation.
02. Enjoy a honeymoon on the road
Fill up the tank, put your foot down and set off on a road trip! An excellent tip for those of you who like to get about and don’t want to stay in one place for too long. Search online for inspiration and exciting places you’d like to visit. A road trip is also a great option if you’re struggling to agree on a single destination you’d both like to visit. Things that are good to have with you when you choose to holiday on the road include a map or sat-nav, water, snacks to eat on the way, and some form of entertainment such as quizzes or guessing games.
03. Rent someone else’s home for a while
With Airbnb, instead of booking a hotel room, you book private accommodation where the owner lets out their home when it’s not in use. It’s often cheaper than booking a hotel room, and there are some real hidden gems to be found on the site if you look carefully. If you’re planning a summer honeymoon, it might be lovely to book a summer cottage in the archipelago with its own lakeside plot, whilst a winter trip could take you to the mountains, for example.
