These amazing books made crazy both kids and adults, and I’m sure that most of us re-read these books or watched films. These books/films are an amazing wedding theme to try, your wedding will be very memorable and gorgeous. Let’s have a look at some ideas you may incorporate into your big day.

Wedding Attire

The bride can go for a vintage-inspired ivory or white wedding dress, it was characteristic of the wizard brides, too. We strongly recommend to try interesting groom’s attire and accessories, for example, to try an all-black look with an emerald tie and a Slytherin boutonniere, or wear a plaid bow tie and a Gryffindor boutonniere, or just go for an eye-catchy printed suit. Ask guests to wear something magical and book-inspired to get amazing photos.

Wedding Decor

If you can, choose a castle to get married – remember Hogwarts and get inspired! The ceremony can take place in the garden or inside the castle, and the reception can be made inside or in the yard of the castle. Hang lights or ask your stylists to create candles floating in the air like in the movie. The decor should be refined and vintage, with gold touches, lots of candles and moody florals. Hang signs with Harry Potter quotes instead of usual ones, opt for winged keys and snitches – realize every idea that you love!
