“Seems silly, doesn’t it? A wedding. Given everything that’s going on.” – Ginny Weasley. “Maybe that’s the reason to have it. Because of everything that’s going on.” – Harry Potter.
With everything that 2020 has given us, we couldn’t have said it better! There is always a reason to celebrate love, and if you needed an excuse to go ahead with your wedding (in a socially-distanced, covid-safe, government rules-permitting way), then this is it. I have gathered the most adorable Harry Potter wedding ideas for you. There are some gorgeous ways to introduce a touch of magic into your wedding day festivities. Everything from the location you pick to the charming little details will have your guests in awe, including a gorgeous wedding venue on the Cliffs of Moher, one of the beautiful Harry Potter film locations.
The Location
I recently re-watched all the Harry Potter films with my husband and one of the things that got me the most excited was the locations. The majestic castle and dining room, the jaw-dropping Cliffs of Moher (an actual Harry Potter film location, pictured below) and of course, the train station!

Ceremony Details
Your ceremony is a lovely space to include some sweet Harry Potter details. I love the deer Patronus ceremony backdrop or the fab idea of giving your guests a wand! Or how about a Marauder’s Map wedding programme!

Centrepieces
Your table centrepiece is another way to incorporate a little charm into your Big Day. You could opt for something subtle like a candle or wand, or go big with a dramatic Golden Snitch.

And lastly, there are so many sweet details you can include! The Golden Snitch floral hoop, a breathtaking cake, and pretty much any other way you can include a touch of gold.
