Yes. The \set*font commands can only be used once.

> Italic}}

The second line is not necessary, fontspec has some heuristics built- 
in to request the italic variant of an upright font. If it fails, you  
might use:

	\setsansfont[UprightFont={HelveticaNeue-Light},  
BoldFont={HelveticaNeue-Bold}, BoldItalic={HelveticaNeue-BoldItalic},  
ItalicFont={HelveticaNeue-LightItalic}]{Helvetica Neue}
	\newfontfamily\cjkfont[ItalicFont=HiraKakuPro- 
W3,ItalicFeatures={RawFeature=+ital},BoldItalicFont=HiraKakuPro- 
W6,BoldItalicFeatures={RawFeature=+ital},BoldFont={HiraMinPro-W6}] 
{HiraMinPro-W3}

Here you can see that \newfontfamily is the command to create a new  
family of fonts, so the following two lines from your document are  
wrong, in two ways:

> \newcommand\bbold{\setromanfont[Ligatures=Common]{Bergamo Std Bold}}
> \newcommand\memo{\setromanfont[Scale=MatchLowercase]{Arial Unicode  
> MS}}

The second way is that *every time* you use \bbold{} or \memo{},  
assuming you were using the correct \newfontfamily instead of  
\setromanfont, you would create the same family of fonts one more  
time. It's better to declare the font first and then use some command  
that uses the font declaration:

   \setromanfont{Lucida Bright}
   \setsansfont{Lucida Sans}
   \setmonofont{Lucida Sans Typewriter}
   \newfontface\slanted[RawFeature={slant=0.194}]{Lucida Bright}
   \DeclareRobustCommand{\textsl}[1]{{\slanted #1}}	% all \textsl{} ->  
Lucida Bright
