OVERVIEW

This was a personally designed website I made for my wedding in 2019.

It's no longer hosted online but you can see what it looked like on Website Screenshots.pdf

Design

Our wedding was festival themed and the core design revolved around a festival poster I had designed for our wedding. This can be seen as the homepage of the website.

The functional parts of the website (RSVP, getting here etc) borrowed the same design, font, colours etc.
