what font did you all use. We are doing our own. What do you all think of this one.  We like the Edwardian script.

We used Edwardian script on some of our wedding items!

However, typically I believe that just names are written in script on invites and the rest of the details is written in a less formal/easier to read font.  (I'm not sure if you're copying and pasting from your invite as an example or if it's what you planned on using for that blurb)

thank you. I didnt know that. What is a good script for the body of the invites

Equine Osmosis

We settled on Monotype Corsiva for the body and Snell Roundhand Bold for the names.

Other options we considered were using Edwardian or Snell Roundhand Bold for the names with Bodoni Svty Two SC ITC TT-Book as the body.

Edwardian is very pretty and we both really liked it but thought it was a little too fancy for our invites.

I agree with Hannah, I feel names belong in a "pretty/fancy" script, and the rest of the text should be more basic and easy to read.

Also... I would post all your wording here before you print them (based on the line you gave us).

Thank you. My MOH is proofreading them and I will have my coordinator be the final set of eyes.

I used a mixture of Mutlu Ornamental & Freebooter Script for our names (I liked the first initials of Multu better than Freebooter) and Optimus Princeps for the body of our invite.

I usually see block for the body and script for the names. Based on your text, make sure you don't capitalize the O and the C in o'clock.

Personally, I think more eyes are better, as it's easy to miss things, and not everyone is well versed in proper wedding invitation grammar.  <div>
