Luxury Bridal WordPress Site Redesign

Project Overview

I'm looking for an experienced WordPress designer/developer to redesign my existing website into a modern, luxury, editorial-style experience.

My company is an established onsite bridal hair and makeup agency serving Portland, Oregon and Southwest Washington. We have hundreds of five-star reviews, an extensive portfolio, and strong SEO rankings. The goal is not to start over, but to modernize the design while preserving and improving our existing SEO.

The new website should feel similar to a luxury wedding photographer, high-end wedding venue, or luxury bridal brand—not a typical beauty salon website.

Website

Current website:
https://www.goddess-glamour.com
