However, the Potterhead in me wouldn\u2019t shut up so six months before the wedding, I told my then fianc\u00e9 that I can make a \u201cHarry Potter\u201d theme work. So we kept the colors which is \u201cluckily\u201d the colors of Ravenclaw which has been my Hogwarts house forever.<\/p>\n

We wanted to stay on budget so I opted to do the Harry Potter elements wedding by myself. I love DIYs and I felt that I can do this.<\/p>\n

The invitations were designed by my good friend Arni Santiago and I was the one to print, cut and glue the pieces together. After a few days and a couple of glues emptied, our Marauder\u2019s map invitations were done! \u00a0For the envelopes, I always wanted them wax sealed so we bought a wax seal kit from Lazada.[\/cs_text][\/cs_column][\/cs_row][cs_row inner_container=”true” marginless_columns=”false” style=”margin: 0px auto;padding: 0px;”][cs_column fade=”false” fade_animation=”in” fade_animation_offset=”45px” fade_duration=”750″ type=”1\/2″ style=”padding: 0px;”][x_image type=”none” src=”http:\/\/weddingsatwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/HarryPotterDIY1.jpg” alt=”” link=”false” href=”#” title=”” target=”” info=”none” info_place=”top” info_trigger=”hover” info_content=””][\/cs_column][cs_column fade=”false” fade_animation=”in” fade_animation_offset=”45px” fade_duration=”750″ type=”1\/2″ style=”padding: 0px;”][x_image type=”none” src=”http:\/\/weddingsatwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/HarryPotterDIY3.jpg” alt=”” link=”false” href=”#” title=”” target=”” info=”none” info_place=”top” info_trigger=”hover” info_content=””][\/cs_column][\/cs_row][cs_row inner_container=”true” marginless_columns=”false” style=”margin: 0px auto;padding: 0px;”][cs_column fade=”false” fade_animation=”in” fade_animation_offset=”45px” fade_duration=”750″ type=”1\/1″ class=”cs-ta-center center-text” style=”padding: 0px;”][x_image type=”none” src=”http:\/\/weddingsatwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/HarryPotterDIY2.jpg” alt=”” link=”false” href=”#” title=”” target=”” info=”none” info_place=”top” info_trigger=”hover” info_content=””][\/cs_column][\/cs_row][\/cs_section][cs_section parallax=”false” style=”margin: 0px;padding: 45px 0px;”][cs_row inner_container=”true” marginless_columns=”false” style=”margin: 0px auto;padding: 0px;”][cs_column fade=”false” fade_animation=”in” fade_animation_offset=”45px” fade_duration=”750″ type=”1\/1″ style=”padding: 0px;”][cs_text]I always wanted a unique ring holder and my then fianc\u00e9 told me I could make a golden snitch and I am so glad I did![\/cs_text][\/cs_column][\/cs_row][cs_row inner_container=”true” marginless_columns=”false” style=”margin: 0px auto;padding: 0px;”][cs_column fade=”false” fade_animation=”in” fade_animation_offset=”45px” fade_duration=”750″ type=”1\/2″ style=”padding: 0px;”][x_image type=”none” src=”http:\/\/weddingsatwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/HarryPotterDIY4.jpg” alt=”” link=”false” href=”#” title=”” target=”” info=”none” info_place=”top” info_trigger=”hover” info_content=””][\/cs_column][cs_column fade=”false” fade_animation=”in” fade_animation_offset=”45px” fade_duration=”750″ type=”1\/2″ style=”padding: 0px;”][x_image type=”none” src=”http:\/\/weddingsatwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/HarryPotterDIY5.jpg” alt=”” link=”false” href=”#” title=”” target=”” info=”none” info_place=”top” info_trigger=”hover” info_content=””][\/cs_column][\/cs_row][\/cs_section][cs_section parallax=”false” style=”margin: 0px;padding: 45px 0px;”][cs_row inner_container=”true” marginless_columns=”false” style=”margin: 0px auto;padding: 0px;”][cs_column fade=”false” fade_animation=”in” fade_animation_offset=”45px” fade_duration=”750″ type=”1\/1″ style=”padding: 0px;”][cs_text]And what better way to guide our guests to their seats than a bottle of Felix Felicis?
