| | Couple to get hitched at Hogwarts
A U.S. couple, along with their family and friends, will be traveling thousands of miles this weekend to get married at Hogwarts. Brian Sterling and Victoria Staten will be wed in England at Alnwick Castle, which was the setting for Hogwarts in the first two Harry Potter films, and even sent an open invitation to J.K. Rowling. Quote:
Victoria and I both love the pure magic of the Harry Potter series and when we visited Alnwick shortly after we met, we decided there and then that it was the perfect location for our wedding.
We want to make it a memorable and magical occasion for everyone and a real fun day for all the children among our guests.

That's a cool idea! The people who run the location should look into having Harry Potter theme weddings!

They must be quite rich, though, methinks. It would be an expensive idea to carry out.
I wonder if Jo will attend - We might get some super awesome images. =D |

a castle wedding is always gorgeous and romantic, but this has special significance since the couple are HP fans.
someone refresh my memory, but which parts of Alnwick Castle did they use on the HP movies?

Wow, I've been there and it is a beautiful place to get married But although I too LOVE Harry Potter isn't it a bit obsessive to get married somewhere just because it was Hogwarts?

But how much would that cost?! Probably 100+ times more than my wedding will cost just to rent the place, plus transportation to another country-continent!, decorations, etc... The Great Hall was originally situated at Christ Church College, Oxford and is now a standing set at Leavesden Studios. Quote:

It was used for exteriors; the flying lesson, the courtyard with the whomping willow & Arthur's car etc...
