RevolvingDork Kellbot and RevolvingDork's Pixelated Wedding: Website

As web developers by trade, we had to do something particularly special for our wedding website. At its core was a fully automated RSVP system that grouped guests by party, allowed them to pick their desired entrees, and let them start organizing transportation if necessary.

Kellbot got the ball rolling on the design by mocking up a modified version of Super Mario Bros. 3's title screen. I took her concept and ran with it, drawing mario-esque versions of the bride and groom. With the finished design in place, Kellbot wrote some javascript that made the keyboard arrows mimic the functionality of the NES D-pad.

We built each section of the site as an homage to a different NES game: Super Mario Bros. 3 for the home page, Mega Man 4 for the wedding info page, and Dragon Warrior (Dragon Quest) for the RSVP system.



Kellbot ended up coding the whole site, and it worked like a charm -- we didn’t process a single RSVP through the mail. If you're curious, you can check out the website yourself at either ChrisLovesKelly.com or KellyLovesChris.com.
