Best wedding font styles (what works & why)
Romantic Script / Calligraphy
Flowing, graceful letterforms for names, “Save the Date”, and headline moments. Keep body text in a neutral serif/sans for legibility.
Signature / Handwritten
Personal, editorial vibe for couples’ names, subheads, and accents. Often monoline or pen-script with stylish alternates.
Elegant Serif
Timeless and formal for invitations, programs, and body text. High-contrast serifs feel luxurious; transitional serifs read beautifully in print.
Modern Sans (Minimal)
Clean, contemporary look for all-caps headings, menus, and websites. Add subtle tracking for an airy luxury feel.
Monogram & Display
Initials, crests, and ampersands for seals, wax stamps, and logos. Look for ligatures, ornamental sets, and small-caps.
Vintage / Rustic
Boho, outdoor, and heritage vibes for signage and favors. Pair with texture (paper grain, letterpress, foil, deckle edges).
Font pairing recipes (copy/paste)
- Romantic Script + Neutral Serif body — flowing names + readable details.
- Signature Script + Small-caps Sans — editorial and modern for invites & websites.
- Elegant Serif + Mono digits — use tabular figures for dates, tables, and prices.
- Minimal Sans + Slim Serif — clean headline with refined secondary info.
Rule of thumb: one expressive star + one quiet helper. Keep contrast in weight/width, not chaos.
Color & layout tips
- Contrast first: dark on light (or vice versa). Use metallic/foil as an accent, not the only contrast.
- Tracking: small-caps sans with +30–60 tracking feels upscale; avoid over-swashing scripts.
- Numerals: choose fonts with tabular figures (monospaced numbers) for menus, seating charts, and dates.
- Print realism: add letterpress grain or subtle paper texture; keep leading generous.
Licensing & print/web quick guide
- Commercial use: verify the license; POD/merch rules vary by font.
- For print: convert to outlines for printers unless embedding is allowed.
- For web: export WOFF2, subset to Basic Latin + numerals, and ensure text shows immediately with a fallback.
- OpenType features: enable stylistic alternates, ligatures, and oldstyle/tabular numerals as needed.

FAQ
Which fonts are safest for wedding body text?
Neutral serifs (transitional/modern) and open sans-serifs are the most readable for details and long copy. Keep script fonts for names and highlights.
Script or signature — when should I use each?
Script is romantic and formal for names, headings and big moments; signature is modern/editorial for subheads and accents. Pair either with a quiet serif/sans.
How do I get perfect numbers for dates and tables?
Choose families with tabular figures (monospaced numerals), so 10/100/1000 align neatly on menus and seating charts.
Can I use free fonts on invitations I sell?
Only if the license includes commercial use. Paid options typically include clearer licensing and better hinting/kerning.
Any quick pairing ideas that always work?
Elegant Serif for body + romantic Script for names; or Modern Serif headline + Clean Sans body for a minimal look.
Web performance for RSVP pages?
Convert to WOFF2, subset to needed glyphs (Basic Latin + numerals), and use font-display: swap.
