After a brief chat it was evident that if we were going to meet the timescale and budget, a WP theme was the only way forward, I had one in mind, one I had used previously for another client and also for one of my own personal websites when I was running a vacation rental of my own apartment.
I showed her examples and talked through any customisation that she's like, fortunately, the theme supported Elementor, so there was some design latitude we could operate in.
The client also had an older domain name that wasn't a good fit, I had a domain on file that I transferred over along with setting up web hosting:
We settled on a colour pallet and I designed a logo, ran through some training and the site went live inside three weeks.
