Warner Bros. Studio in London's one night only 'Dinner in the Great Hall' is now sold out but that does not mean you cannot celebrate Hogwarts-style.
The Harry Potter-themed dinner is scheduled to commence on December 3. Warner Brothers promised its muggle guests an ultimate magical experience that includes eating flaming Christmas puddings, drinking Butterbeer along the Diagon Alley and enjoy desserts at Platform 9 ¾. A lot of fans all over the world have booked to have a chance to enter the Hogwarts world but there are those who simply cannot afford a seat at the great hall.
For the rest of us HP fans who won't be able to join the banquet, Popsugar has tips on how to re-create the wizard worthy dinner. When it comes to table linens and dinnerware, consider a winter-white color scheme. This way, you could play on the colors of the other pieces on the table. To decorate your enchanting dinner, use your HP books as centerpiece on your festive table. You can stack the books and pair them with a vase with festive flowers or include them at the base of your HP-themed Christmas tree.
The key to recreating that holiday HP mood is apt lighting. It should be soft and not overpowering. Your DIY version of floating candles may magically appear in the form of a fishing line, some glass candle holders and some tea light candles. Aside from the floating candles, make an enchanting table piece out of a glass jar then fill it with lights. Opt for led lights or copper wire Christmas lights and layer it with your glittering pine cones of Christmas balls.
Lastly, use the wide ranged Harry Potter memorabilia that you have collected through the years. Place that wand you purchased as a souvenir as an added décor. Search for some DIY Christmas ornaments that you can include in your banquet. And instead topping your Christmas tree with a star, why not opt of a sorting hat instead?
