The marriage of the characters, played by volunteer actors, is a culmination of tweets between a fan of JK Rowling and the author’s spat with the anti-gay ‘church’ on Twitter.

Shortly after Ireland voted to legalize same-sex marriage, @justaoifethings tweeted: “@jk_rowling proud to see us being so open and accepting, at long last! I hope Dumbledore and all witches and wizards feel welcome here.”

Rowling replied, “Then they could get married IN IRELAND!”
