Case Study: Directory Website – The Grand Wedding
The Grand Wedding Directory helps users find wedding services. It is also a place that allows business owners who operate in the wedding sector to list their services or products. The website owner makes revenue from memberships and ads placements.

The Challenge
We had to build a website for a directory website for The Grand Wedding. They wanted a portal that allowed businesses in the wedding industry to be able to list there products or services. It also has to be a central hub for users that are looking to hire services or products for their wedding.
Solutions we offered
Branding - As with all website, including a directory website branding is one of the first obstacles to overcome. Our client wanted a gold logo with a touch of elegance. And thats what we delivered.
Directory Website Design - With the logo confirmed, the next step was the design. Whenever we start building a website, its always best to start with a logo, we then base the design and colours around the primary logo.
Directory Website Development - We had to build a system that lets our client make a revenue for ads placed around the website by listing owners. We also integrated a membership option that enables the client to take recurring payments to add a listing to the site.
