    Hello all bees out there!

    I love the font used in the heading "cynthia martyn" http://www.cynthiamartyn.typepad.comand was wondering if anyone knew what font this was. I want to use this same font for my escort cards and table name cards. 

    Thanks in advance!

    -D

    Century gothic is what I was thinking too. We used it as our primary font for our printed material. Everything from our monogram and our invitations to the tags on cookie jars and favors. Here's the link to our details page if you want to see it in action.

    "Cynthia Martin" is Helvetica Neue Light I'm almost certain. I studied the shape of each character of that typeface in detail during college. 

    The other typeface is Hoefler Text.

    Hi everyone, just saw a linkback on my blog stats to this post so I thought I would solve the font mystery. I too, need help identifying a font! :  wedding font escort cards Icon Biggrin
     

    The font for Cynthia Martyn is called Chalet Paris 1960, which is a commercial font available from a company called House Industries.

    The secondary font is Mrs. Eaves All Small Caps.

     

    Happy Planning!

    Cynthia Martyn
