Want to use Harry Potter passages as readings during your wedding? We can totally understand why! Not only are we massive fans of both the books and films here in One Fab Day we often see the most magical weddings popping up that use gorgeous Harry Potter references as themes - check out Misty & Brett’s Kilmartin Castle Wedding and Lynn & Alan's Magical Beech Hill Country House Day. And of course, like the rest of the world, we are already at the edge of our seats to see the new HBO series which lands on Christmas Day. We also loved seeing the inside the wedding of Irish Harry Potter star Evanna Lynch's Luna Lovegood-approved wedding which recently was covered on our sister brand over at Evoke.ie.

So without further witchy ado, here are our ten of our favourite quotes from the films and books that we feel could absolutely be worked into speeches or readings on the day:
