Luxury Wedding Videography Website
The Project
Michael from Vision & Vow Films had a WordPress site that just wasn’t doing his work justice. He films beautiful, emotional, cinematic weddings and elopements across Ireland – but his website felt like every other generic site out there. It wasn’t attracting his ideal clients, and it wasn’t telling the story he wanted to tell.
He came to me wanting something that felt like stepping into one of his films. Warm, nostalgic, cinematic – and most importantly, something that would connect with couples who care about real storytelling over staged perfection.
Project Timeline: 3 weeks from project start to launch
Platform: WordPress + Elementor
Industry: Luxury Wedding Videography
What the site needed to do
The website needed to feel completely different from the typical clean, minimal wedding vendor look. It needed to be a Luxury Wedding Videography Website. Michael’s couples are the kind who care about how things feel, not just how they look. The site had to speak to them. It also needed to make booking easy and work brilliantly on mobile – because most couples are browsing at 11pm from their phones.
What I Did (And Why)
- Zero downtime during the build – I built a temporary landing page on the live site while the full redesign happened behind the scenes. It had a contact form and links to his Instagram so no leads were lost as having even a day without a working site can cost real business.
- Completely new look and feel – We went warm, moody, and cinematic. Earthy tones, film-inspired typography, and a video-first layout. Not trendy for the sake of it – every choice was made to reflect Michael's actual work and who he is as a filmmaker.
- Video throughout, but done smartly – I added full-width video backgrounds and short clips across key pages, but optimised every file carefully so the site stays fast even on mobile. There's no point in a stunning video hero if it takes 10 seconds to load.
- A featured films section on the homepage – Michael's best work is front and centre, with dedicated film pages that include the full video, the couple's story, and supplier credits. Context and emotion, not just pretty visuals.
- Calendly integration – No more back-and-forth emails trying to find a time. Couples can book a discovery call directly from the contact page. Simple, clean, and one less barrier between them and hitting enquire.
- A custom contact form – Michael wanted to gather some key details upfront (budget, date, location) so he wasn't spending time on enquiries that weren't a good fit. I built that into the form from the start.
The Results
Michael’s new site genuinely looks and feels like his brand now. The video-first approach lets his work speak for itself, and the warm colour palette and typography create a cohesive, premium feel that attracts the couples he actually wants to work with. Here’s what he had to say:
