my latest work..
http://www.event-entertainment.c…
it still needs the odd tweak, but its almost there.(it needs imagery i know but i need chance to take photos for client for that to happen)
also, right-hand column is for small banners that will promote the business's services- these are on their way.thanks for your time

oh forgot to mention- the copy has been written by the client and an SEO company, not me.

It's very basic. Almost like a template. I'm not sure the font / title header really works for the title of the company. But it's a start.

Hire a graphic designer. Pics or it didn't happen, also.

There is way too much text on the home page, I shouldn't have to read so much to figure what I am looking at. Too much info.
Take a look at what the competition web sites look like. It looks very blog like right now. Bottom line is, that it's very boring.- i didn't make the call on the content at all, but photos will be added.Samush

what Jaline said and i miss a activ-state for the menu-buttons...and it still outputs some css errors (no-repeat on background-image, border-radius).

The default WP is better.

It would be cool if your images were illustrations that were consistent with the one on the header. No photos. Just illustrations. Maybe?

where did you make a call on?

Ooft, I'd do 'something' with that header graphic.
Either tidy it up, so the colours are within the lines (remember colouring by numbers? :), and make it look CLEAN. Get some different stroke weights in, make more of that little-used dark grey shade, as a 50% shadow detail across the colours (with, perhaps an opposing 50% white shade for the hilight on the black colour blocks).
..Or muss it up more - I can see what effect you're going for, but you're not hitting it at all - you need to have the colour areas being less rigid and so formally 'outwith the lines'. Also, I'm not sure it works with the single-weight, clean and thin stroke you've used - I'd expect it to look more hand-made.

"a bespoke entertainment company" called "The Event Entertainment Company"..this had FAIL all over it before you installed the stock wordpress theme...
- i didnt come up with the name or write the copy. so in response to the default worpress theme, it really doesn't look bad.Samush

OK guys, some comps/relevants here. Compare and contrast.

Not to be a complete prick about it, but, you know installing a stock cms theme is not really "designing".
- i didn't design wordpress, i designed the site and added wordpress to it.Samush

It looks so generic that I could've even muster the energy to read the menu headings. This reminds me of what Truman Capote said about Jack Kerouac's 'On the Road' – That not writing, thats typing.
* Disclaimre, I like 'On the Road', I do not like your template site, or green eggs and ham.
