A BRIDE wants a Harry Potter-themed wedding and insists on having an owl as the ring bearer – but experts say it’s a risky move.
She turned to her pal Reddit user Grouchy_Shelter_5221 for advice as she planned the big day.

The idea was to have an owl be the ring bearer and fly the rings down the aisle at the ceremony, Newsweek reports.
Grouchy_Shelter, who works with owls and falconry, was skeptical, warning that there’s a risk the birds wouldn’t be able to perform the task despite training.
They wrote: “Now, in theory, this could be done after all 9 times out of 10 they’ll do exactly as I want it’s just the 1 time I’m worried about and I don’t exactly want to take that risk with wedding rings.”
Instead, the Redditor offered to bring some of the owls to the ceremony for photo opportunities and a quick falconry show.
But, their pal wasn’t thrilled with the idea.
“My friend is upset with me saying she has seen how well I’ve trained them and has complete confidence they won’t mess up, and how this would be such a huge thing for the wedding,” the user wrote.
It comes as Florida couple Victoria and Arley Smude had a Checkers-themed wedding after the fast-food chain helped bring the pair together.
They held their wedding ceremony in front of friends, family, and a 43-foot trailer full of chicken tenders and seasoned fries.
The bride told local news outlet WFLA that Checkers holds a special place in the couple’s hearts as it’s one of the places the newlyweds first met.
As their relationship developed, the couple planned their proposal around Checkers Fry Lover’s Burger.
On the wedding day, guests were able to eat chicken tenders and signature fries provided by the restaurant.
Checkers also supplied Victoria with a custom bouquet made with chicken tenders, which she says made her feel like “a Checkers princess.”
