Tease up your hair and Horror Archivesblast some Madonna, this couple is totally bringing back the ~chic~ styles of 1980s.

Steve and Danielle VanHorn, of Dover, Ohio, recently dressed up in their favorite throwback styles for a fantastically cheesy '80s photoshoot. Photographer Vanessa Hoffmann perfectly captured the essence of the decade through the awkward poses and absurd backgrounds.

The couple decided to do the shoot for their 10th wedding anniversary, after looking through photos of their parents. The results show one timeless romance.

Steve told Mashable, "We've always enjoyed looking at photos of our parents and family members from the 80's. From the outfits to the backgrounds and poses, they're usually hilarious. So when my wife proposed doing a 10-year anniversary photo shoot, I said let's do an '80s throwback instead of something serious, and she was all about it."

Since the photos were posted on Facebook a few weeks ago, they have received a lot of attention, much to the couple's surprise.

Steve said that being from a small town, they never expected this kind of response, "We knew friends and family would get a kick out of them....but we had no idea we'd be getting messages from all over the United States! It's crazy, but we're thrilled so many people are finding joy in the pictures."

Apparently their three children are slightly less enthusiastic. Steve said, "Our kids don't get it....they're 7, 5, and 2, so they just think we look like big dorks, even bigger than usual."

We can't wait for 30 years from now when couple's recreate the Insta-looks we thought were cool in 2017.
