The Web Page Prospectus

The webpage that I designed was for my mother's new company PartyTenders. PartyTenders is a company based in South Florida that takes care of the party needs of clients. It helps them get catering, service help, and lighting design. I met with my mom and we talked about the design elements that she wanted to use in her website. We settled on three main elements.
1. Black backgrounds
2. Music
3. Framed Pictures


After we had decided on the three elements I did some preliminary mock-ups of each of the pages and we then settled upon the four webpages that I posted.

The home page has a simple picture using the blue in the writing to reflect in the visual. Behind the scenes a violin piece by Itzak Perlman plays and below the simple heading are three buttons that link to the other pages. There are a total of three links per page that navigate the website effectively.

The contact us page has three pictures and a form that I made from Wufoo.com that I linked into the html of the page so that perspective clients can contact PartyTenders for a quote on their next event. Thirdly there is an email link at the top of the page that will open up the users mail program to send a personal email to the partytenders email address.

About us has a different layout and allows the user to learn more about the business and the themes that it provides.

Finally the services page lists the things that the business does as well as providing a vague enough description on price and time so that it can be customized for the individual user.

Throughout the website there are pictures that relate to the idea of partys, service, and decoration done by PartyTenders. Each picture has a refection and a frame that was available in iWeb. These pages were blank and I designed them from scratch using iWeb.

This site was posted on partytendersfl.com as well as my web folder at augsburg to be graded.
