Best moment: “For me, it was saying our vows to each other,” says Nancy. “For James, it was having our friend Craig read a poem during the ceremony.”

Favourite detail: “My favourite wedding detail was having my grandmother’s typewriter as our guest book,” explains Nancy. “James loved the DJ because he did such a great job of entertaining our guests that night.”

Wedding song: “Harvest Moon” by Neil Young. “James chose the song because he thought the lyrics applied to us,” says Nancy. “Like the couple in the song we had been together for some time and still cared deeply for each other.”
