Harry Potter Wedding Festival

Alison & Charles – November 14, 2022

Why did we love it? The couple was obsessed with

Alison and Charles’ fall wedding festival a magical celebration, was filled with unique and enchanting details that completely reflected their love for each other and their shared passion for the wizarding world. They chose to infuse a touch of wizarding whimsy, starting with a charming trolley candy bar. It had an assortment of delectable sweets reminiscent of a journey to Honeydukes.

Adding to the enchantment was the Lumos Glowstick Station, so guests could pick one up to illuminate the dance floor.

The reception centerpieces were adorned with golden snitches to add a touch of mystique and playfulness to each table, symbolizing the pursuit of love as a thrilling and adventurous journey.

For the seating chart, guests found their designated tables based on the Sorting Hat’s wisdom. This clever and personalized touch ensured that each guest felt a part of the magical world that Alison and Charles created for their fall wedding.

To top it off, when Mike found out they were “Harry Potter dorks” like him – he immediately set to work making a pair of custom wands made of wood from the property complete with an official letter from Olivander certifying the authenticity of the wands ; )

Mike had a blast making the wands and the couple used them at the top of the Ridge Hike which made for completely unique golden hour photos!
