Website Design & Development / Talamore
Weddings at Talamore
Visual brand and website development for Weddings at Talamore, a key offering in the Talamore suite of offerings. Developed on the Wordpress platform, the writing and design of the website was essential in the representation of the Talamore offering; the surroundings, grounds, amenities, features and the unique options of the wedding offering. With the event photography being an essential element of the Talamore weddings brand.
The development of the Weddings brand included the writing, design, and creating a tone, look and feel. The icons, color, and typography played an essential role in establishing the feel of the site. In addition to being key ingredients of the visual brand, the icons and colors represent features, amenities, and options of the wedding offering, as well as the icons working as a component of the website navigation. In choosing the color palette and scheme, the colors work together with the photography, ensuring the colors don’t conflict with the photography.
Working as both a photo gallery and navigation tool, a grid of photo blocks for Ceremony, Reception, Conservatory Ballroom, Garden Weddings, Awards, etc, navigates viewers through the pages of the site. This gallery is present on all pages and consistently delivers a strong selling proposition of great photography that showcases the wedding venue.
As part of the website footer, icons for the awards, testimonials, and contact pages are always present, without interfering with the page content or the field of vision. This was done to enable the viewer to quickly contact Talamore, and access content that strengthens the selling proposition.
Built on the WordPress platform, the website is responsive to all devices and screens. Although the site displays a vast amount of photographs on each page, the website is light, relying on the principles of responsive design, layout, and CSS, instead of unnecessary plugins that would result in a heavy website that is slow to load and browse. The structure of content and writing ensures the site is optimized for search engine position.
