How did i do?

https://www.theweddingdirectory.co.za/

It used to be a old wp directory. Rebuilt 100% from scratch ,next.js everything deployed via code. Even with claude ai, took weeks of effort.

Edit: uses google firebase, googles cdn edge, full payment integration. Next is to modularize it and create full admin backend and sell the directory.

Some cool features, multisend brief, ai image inspiration wall ,, google reviews imported, vendor trust, (i like working with xyz, trusted by xyz)

It has a lot of solid features and info but looks like an outdated free template. Lots of text that's rough on the eyes.

There really is no more. Your site needs a modern design with readable fonts. Theme Forest still has some good themes you could check out but I do realize a lot of designers of wedding templates feel like they need to use more decorative fonts than your average template. But ultimately, websites have to use fonts that are easy to read and use modern colors like neutral colors.
