I wasn’t really a fan of the band at that point, although I had their album Ummagumma, but a friend had just come back from London where he’d got to know one of the band’s roadies and he invited me backstage.

What’s left is the opportunity to publicly declare your love and commitment in front of your collected friends and family — and then throw the mother of all parties. In the run-up, weekends were spent cycling to the city’s various markets — Berwick Street and Shepherd’s Bush for fabrics; Covent Garden Market at dawn, the place to go for flowers; underneath the railway arches at Spa Terminus a whole community of people passionate about food and drink reside: there’s Neal’s Yard Dairy for British cheeses; Coleman Coffee, a local small-batch roaster, for a special wedding blend; Aubert & Mascoli for natural wines; and John, of John and Elena’s Fruit Co, who called at dawn from the wholesale market a day before the wedding to talk about which peaches were looking their best, for all things sweet and plump.

I certainly had never given marriage any real thought until, on the anniversary of our first kiss, my partner, Janina, 32, shyly proposed. None of it came to pass.

To her, having been born in the Soviet Union and raised in Sweden — two societies where men and women stand on slightly more even ground — marriage seemed straightforward enough.

One evening, as my bride-to-be and I sat sewing and dying tablecloths well past midnight, with days to go before the wedding, we realised that we had, perhaps, been a little ambitious. Then, rather than leading the first dance, we ran back to the river, stripped naked and led the first swim. This is a picture of me and my then husband David Gilmour, the Pink Floyd guitarist, and our newly born daughter Alice, at Woodley, our home in Roydon, Essex, in 1976.

Even their road crew was quite civilised. To make matters worse, as our world teeters on the brink of apocalypse, promising someone eternity might not mean much at all. I didn’t believe them.

I started to see that I actually had two marriages, one with David and one with the band.

They had to deal with being married to their wives and to each other, and when they divorced as a band it got so intense that it eventually destroyed all the individual marriages, including ours. But how, too, could we divorce marriage from its proprietorial past? The last thing I tried to fix — a toilet roll holder — somehow ended up being flushed down the loo.

So when my partner Janina suggested we have a DIY wedding I briefly imagined the worst: beloved aunts crushed to death beneath my jerry-rigged tables, esteemed guests stuck like pigs on protruding nails, a mass of splinters and wet paint instead of a cake. Bravely — or, perhaps, foolishly — my parents offered to let us use an empty field by a river that runs through their farm in West Sussex as our chapel and, with that, we began to build our wedding from scratch. My only wish now is that we could do it all again. These days, weddings seem few and far between. After a simple ceremony by the river we sat down to a meal cooked on an open fire by my friend Fernando, who runs a Mexican restaurant called Santo on Portobello Road.
