    Okay, i've narrowed it down to two beautiful fonts that I love.

    The first font is Digs My Hart

    http://www.kevinandamanda.com/fonts/freescrapbookfonts/digs-my-hart/

    The next font is Beautiful ES

    http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/Beautiful-ES

     

    Of coure I would be torn between two completely opposite fonts, which font do you liek better?

    Also any advice on what kind of body font to put together with the two?

    I prefer Beautiful ES because it's a little more formal.  But my advice for you would really depend on the type and style of your wedding invites!

    It really depends on the style of your invite. Is it formal than the 2nd one, but less formal I say the 1st! The 1st font type is more unique I think, too.

    I love the Digs My Hart font, but like others have said, its tough to say without knowing what your invitations are like. If you're going for a somewhat informal feel, thats a really fun font!

    What is the style of your wedding?

    If your wedding is more formal, then I would select the second font.  However, if it's more laid back, then I would choose the first font.  I really like both, but I am slightly more drawn to the first one.

    I agree with everyone. The second font is beautiful and elegant, but is your wedding theme and invite style elegant? If its more casual I would go with the first font

    What if you used the Digs your heart for rehearsal dinner invites, STDs, or Thank yous.  I would use a more formal font on my invitation, but I went a pretty traditional route.

    I would create two drafts with both fonts and see which one you like better then!

    I agree depending on formality. I think your names affect the choice as well - with the scripty one it could be very hard to read. Personally I like #1 but if you really can't choose you can always do your name in Digs My Hart & then the rest in the formal. I'm doing a scripty version for our names and the rest will be more blocky. Gives it a different perspective.

    i like the second because it is more formal.... the first is fun, and i guess i depends on the feel of your invites. have you thought about using 2 fonts? i would not do two scripts though, but you can do one typeset style and one script if you want to make it more interesting.

    Based on nothing I like the first more. It's a bit more playful. But like the other ladies said, without any context it's hard to judge. We need photos and a poll!

    We are having an outside wedding, it is a more formal wedding but we want to also keep it fun!

    Our invitations are pretty simple, they don't have any design on them or anything.

    When I choose a font I based it off of our names I couldn't ever find a font where I liked the "C"

    Our names are Cassandra Ann & Adam Joseph.

    Yeah I'd definitely go for the more fun one. It'll give your invites a little something extra!

    What if you go with the more formal font for your invite but have the more fun font for the RSVP cards and any signage that you'll be having at the wedding?
