It isn't Seamus as these are all genitive versions of Latin first names.
Groom is filius (son) of possibly Joannes (John) and Johanne (Jane)
Bride is filia (daughter) of Jacobi (James) and ???
Could you post the link from the NLI page so there is more writing to compare with?
If you only have the NLI link, use the free search to find it on FMP where you may get the transcriber's version of the parents' names - albeit the transcriptions often leave a lot to be desired.

Thanks, got the PM and managed to find it on FMP. Their transcription is same as mine above for the first three names.
As for bride's mother's name the FMP transcription is Maria.
I think it could well be Mariae (genitive form of Mary). This is much clearer in other versions of Mariae written by the same priest on this page - on your record he seems to have gone for a loopier initial M plus the tops of succeeding letters are very scratchy/faded and the final E looks more like an O. They don't make it easy!
If it's not Mariae, I'm at a loss (for now, anyway) to think what it could be...
Does this tally with what you were hoping/expecting to find?

PS I've found another transcript version which says Mariae. I'll send you the link as a PM as per your wishes in original PM to me.
