The Geekiest, Most (Adorable) Retro Wedding Invitation Ever

by Matthew Zuras on November 9, 2009 at 07:41 AM

As soon as we saw this 8-bit piece of love, we had to pause our regular reportage of laser-etched fruit and robot fish to simply stop and gush like the Cute-Overload-reading, pre-teen, Japanese girls that we all carry inside of us. Really, how freakin' adorable is this?

Illustrator Carla Berrocal designed the wedding invitation for the Chilean computer scientist couple of Luis Diaz Santis and Magaly Guerrero Ramirez. Berrocal mixed freehand drawing and Photoshop to create a cute throwback to the glorious Atari-fueled '80s. We're especially in love with the little design quirks: "Insert Coin?" Check out the inside of the card after the break.

¡Felicidades, Luis y Magaly! [From: Carla Berrocal, via BuzzFeed]
