I can't see the image, but Champagne & Limousines is one of my favorite casual fonts!
My thoughts:
Remove the bold on the script (I've been told to never ever bold a script font)of your names, and make the font size bigger.
Is your wedding going to be casual or formal? From this invitation it gives off a casual feel. If you are going for something formal, I would suggest changing the fonts all together.
I like the script font. But the other font makes it look too casual, which I don't think goes too well with a formal Catholic wedding. I agree that the script shouldn't be bold.
The bold is actually a mistake - I didn't even notice it until it was changed to a jpeg to post here. Thanks for pointing it out!
It is indeed a catholic wedding, but we are still going for a pretty casual feel overall (outdoor barbeque recetion) I did sort of struggle to find good fonts to go with my script though, so if there are any suggestions out there, I'd love to hear them!
I'm using optimus princeps, I downloaded it from dafont.com for free and I love it. It gives my invites more of a formal feel. I don't know how well it will go with your script but it doesn't hurt to try.
I used Monterey on my invites and Cochin in all small caps for the text.
Also, I would change it to say "the marriage of their children" "Emily Rose AND Nicholas James", not "to". Hope this helps!
yep, a serif font will make it less casual but not too formal looking
Agreed JoJo. Adobe Caslon Pro looks much like Cochin, as well.
What about a slab-serif font?

I like the layout but you should make your names bigger... the font weights are kind of battling it out! But whatever you choose to do, make sure it represents you... and good luck!
I think I would also change the font of "reception to follow" to the non-script font

Hi ladies -
I'm attaching a mockup of our wedding invitation wording in some fonts I liked. What are your opinions?
Both of our parents are contributing to the cost of the wedding, and it will be held in a Catholic church.
Would you suggest putting more of it in script? What do you think of the combination of fonts? (I used Monterey for the script and Champagne & Limosines for the type.)
Any critiques are welcome. Thanks!
