Default www.ourspecialmoment.co.uk - Please review site

After spending many years designing other people’s sites, we decided to build a site of our own. It has only just been released and we would appreciate your comments.

Please feel free to login and create a site. You will not be charged, unless of course you are getting married and decide you need a site like this.

Finally if any of you would consider linking to us that would be great and we would of course return the favour.

http://www.ourspecialmoment.co.uk/

Regards
Bob Connolly

Take it from a non-pro:

You have a beautiful site in my opinion. Only thing I feel missing is a "home" (or similar) navigation alternative.

When browsing through the different sides, it takes forever to get back "home" using the back button in my browser.

Also, the copyright notice... I feel perhaps it should have been centered.

A little slow to load on my modem but otherwise a great design. Good luck with it.

Default website critique

Your site is very well executed. I'd like to suggest two things: 1) Include a "Home" link at bottom of pages for the convenience of your visitors, and 2) in your copyright notice, it should read All rights reserved.

Really nice!

Here are some metatags you don't need and don't want coz they will just use up yr bandwidth and/or stop google from visiting yr site for 10 days. I have marked em in red...

<META NAME="TITLE" CONTENT="Welcome to Special Moments">
<META NAME="AUTHOR" CONTENT="john.garland@specialmoments.co.uk - u will be subject to more spam with this.">

I like your site a lot. It's clean, quick to load, has well spaced and easy to read content. Nice flash animation not too heavy in the bytes department.

Not sure about the font you used in the menu but it is apt for the subject. I'm also not sure about the rose at the top, it looks kind of odd with the stem faded. You might consider doing a gradual fade from bud to stem.

Anyway, good job ;)

Hi Bob,

I agree with N30. The rose does look out of place.

Your Tags are good and content full, so SEO shouldn't be too much of a problem. The site looks nice, and loads well.

Nice.

Default nice site, but....

I am an electrician, not a site designer or IT pro.
As such, I have an amateur's eye.

I like your site. It is interesting, and a great service idea. Who would've thought.. a wedding site site..

However, spell and grammar checks leave much to be desired. Incorrect spelling and improper grammar leave an impression of incompleteness that one cannot always put one's finger on, much like uncombed hair.

Sorry, I also have the editor's curse. I can pick up a 400 page book I've never seen and open to the only typo in the whole thing...

Hey, you design webpages for people. Need a grammar editor? ..anybody? Brand spanking new service!

Good luck with your venture
best regards

Default Neat Idea

Especially like the offer of privacy!

Might set some ideas of what you could do with the site on your front page IE include a map for visitors, link to registry places, etc.
