Luxury WordPress Website Creation

I need a sleek, modern-luxury website built on WordPress that feels premium from the first click. The palette is set—black, white and tasteful touches of gold—so the design should lean on strong typography, generous white space and subtle animations to convey that high-end feel on both desktop and mobile.

Core structure
• Home, About and Blog pages are mandatory. The blog should follow a magazine-style layout that allows eye-catching feature images and clear categorisation.
• A Shop section is optional for launch but must be fully prepared in the build. It will sell digital products only, so plan for downloadable files, licence keys or similar assets.
• A newsletter sign-up should sit naturally in the layout (footer and one in-content block on Home) and feed directly into my email platform.
• For payments I only want credit/debit card processing—no PayPal or Stripe buttons showing—so configure a gateway that keeps checkout friction-free and compliant.

Deliverables
– Custom WordPress theme or well-chosen premium template, fully branded in black/white/gold
– Magazine-style blog functionality (featured posts, category filtering, author box)
– WooCommerce (or equivalent) set up for digital products with secure card gateway
– Newsletter integration (Mailchimp, Klaviyo or similar)
– Responsive optimisation and basic on-page performance tuning (caching, image compression)
– One round of revisions after first full demo

I’ll provide logo, font licences and initial copy; you handle everything from installation to final QA. Please include examples of luxury or minimalist sites you’ve crafted, estimated timeline and any plugin licences I’d need to purchase.
