Nemone & James at St John’s College, Cambridge


What a first dance song and what a wedding!

Nemone and James had the most wonderful, laid-back family wedding at the beautiful St John’s College, Cambridge, back in August. After donning her fabulous golden cape (the whole outfit being unique, a self-design), Nemone and her family punted past the Bridge of Sighs to dock at the grounds of the college, where the celebration of their marriage began.

The day couldn’t have gone better—full of laughter, unhurried, and with the perfect weather for a wedding. The day concluded with some excellent musical choices (obviously, you can often hear Nemone on BBC Radio 6 Music). Nobody could escape the dance floor when there was a ceilidh band in the house!
