01
The day as a story
Instead of a page of rooms, the homepage walks you through a wedding there, from getting ready at 2pm to the 10:30 send-off. Each moment shows where it happens.
Halden Grove
A homepage for a garden-estate wedding venue in Central Florida, designed around the thing couples actually buy: the day itself.
This is the real page, running live. Scroll inside the frame, or view it full page. Links are switched off.
The brief
Most venue websites are a gallery and a contact form. Couples are left to imagine the day themselves, then email to ask the same questions about rain plans, capacity, price and dates.
Halden Grove (a fictional garden estate in Winter Garden, Florida) is our answer: a homepage that shows the whole day, answers the practical questions up front, and makes the next step obvious.
What we designed
02
Media first
Real footage and photography lead every section. The layout exists to stage the venue, not to decorate around it.
03
Built to book
Reviews, a featured real wedding, transparent packages and a live-looking availability preview answer the questions couples ask before they ever enquire.
Motion
- Full-screen video hero
- Pinned scroll story
- Crossfading chapters
- Hover video previews
- Cursor-follow images
- Drifting gallery
- Words that light up as you scroll
- Photo unveil reveals
Calmer than our own site on purpose: slow crossfades and long reveals for a venue, with playful overshoot saved for small hover moments. Everything respects reduced-motion settings.
