Have a (totally grown-up) Harry Potter-themed wedding
Marrying Muggles take note! If you and your groom share a love of Quidditch, you may want to incorporate a few magical touches into your wedding. In honor of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, which opens in theaters tomorrow, we've gathered up our best wizard-inspired ideas (our tip: include just one or two of these items in your wedding to keep the celebration fun and adult):
Making the Grade: You'll be sure to get top marks for your house (and show just how perfect your love is) with these charmingly retro bride and groom school badges.
Castle Confection: Add a taste of Hogwarts to your reception with a castle-shaped wedding cake, like this stunning design from Jacques Fine European Pastries.
What a Hoot: Spread the news by Owl Post with these romantic "Alex and Juniper" wedding invitations (click to see a full image of the invite).
Flying Favors: Wish you could use a Firebolt as your getaway vehicle? You can still give your wedding a high-flying flair by handing out Broomstick Fuel chocolate as favors.
Lightning Style: This canvas lightning bag would make a perfect bridesmaid gift (or tote to use during your pre-wedding pampering). —Kathryn Papanek

Is it just me, or do these suggestions seem a bit mishmash and uninspired? Clearly Cinderella's castle, for example. Whoever is responsible for this post ought to do their homework better.
I am going to have to agree with Kelly on this one. This bit of information to inspire the wedding with a touch of Harry Potter is shameless and pitiful. Even the Dursley's could have come up with better things to inspire a HP theme in a wedding. I jumped for joy when I saw this post, however it is RUBBISH BIN material at best.
