Elegant, flowing, and full of charm—La Bohemienne is the kind of script that feels like a handwritten love letter. Its graceful curves and sweeping lines bring a soft, romantic feel to your invitation suite, perfect for couples who love beauty with a personal touch.

Whether it’s a name, a line of poetry, or the heart of your invitation, this font adds just the right amount of whimsy and warmth. It’s especially lovely for garden, floral, or French-inspired celebrations with an effortlessly elegant feel.

We love pairing La Bohemienne with a classic serif like Cormorant Garamond, as seen in our Florence Collection. The combination is soft, timeless, and blooming with charm—just like a countryside garden in spring.

Didot – Modern Elegance with a Fashion-Forward Twist

Chic, timeless, and effortlessly refined—Didot is a font that feels right at home on a beautifully set table or the cover of a fashion magazine. With its delicate lines and graceful contrast between thick and thin strokes, it brings a sense of quiet luxury to your wedding stationery.

There’s something undeniably sophisticated about the way it looks in print—especially when paired with its italic variation. It’s a perfect choice for couples who love clean design, classic details, and just a hint of Parisian glamour.

We love using Didot in our Astrid Collection, where its sleek lines and timeless beauty mirror the romance of a Parisian soirée. Paired in both regular and italic styles, it creates a look that’s polished, poised, and full of heart.

Ms. Claudy – Whimsical Calligraphy with a Feminine Touch

Soft, flowing, and full of movement—Ms. Claudy is a modern script that brings a sense of lightness and joy to your invitation suite. Its graceful letterforms mimic the beauty of hand-drawn calligraphy, with just the right amount of whimsy.

With gentle curves and natural variations, this font feels personal and romantic, like a note written just for you. It’s especially lovely for couples who want something elegant but not overly formal—perfect for garden celebrations and floral-filled days.

Best for: Romantic, feminine, and garden-inspired weddings

We love using Ms. Claudy in our Fleur Collection, where it pairs beautifully with italic IvyOra. Together, they strike a balance between softness and sophistication, echoing the feeling of English garden blooms and gentle romance.

Wisteria – Whimsical Script with a Playful Heart

Lighthearted and full of charm, Wisteria is a handwritten script that brings a sense of joy to your wedding stationery. With its looping letters and slightly imperfect lines, it feels fresh, fun, and a little bit free-spirited—like wildflowers trailing across a garden wall.

This font is perfect for couples who want their invitations to feel personal and playful, without losing elegance. It adds a hint of whimsy to any suite and pairs beautifully with clean, modern type for balance.

Best for: Playful, romantic, and garden-inspired weddings

In our Roselyn Collection, Wisteria is paired with the simplicity of Gill Sans Light to let the florals shine. The result is fresh, joyful, and full of personality—just like the celebration it represents.

Ms. Augustine – Graceful Calligraphy with a Modern Ease

Elegant, flowing, and quietly confident—Ms. Augustine is a modern calligraphy script that brings a soft, sophisticated feel to your wedding stationery. Its hand-drawn style is full of graceful curves and natural rhythm, adding just the right amount of romance without feeling too formal.

Perfect for couples who love simplicity with heart, this font feels personal and polished all at once. It’s especially lovely for minimalist celebrations with a feminine, timeless touch.

Best for: Understated, elegant, and romantic weddings

You’ll find Ms. Augustine in our Poppy Collection, paired with Thermal VF—a refined serif that adds structure without overpowering the charm. Together, they create a look that’s quietly luxurious, soft yet striking—like a vintage textile or a whispered “I do.”

How to Choose the Perfect Font for Your Wedding Invitations

Now that you’ve explored some of the most loved wedding invitation fonts, how do you choose the one that’s just right for your day? Here are a few things to keep in mind as you dream up your suite:

1. Let Your Wedding Style Lead the Way

Your font should echo the feeling of your celebration:

Formal or black-tie weddings: Classic serif fonts like Didot or IvyOra bring timeless elegance.
Romantic garden weddings: Calligraphy scripts like Ms. Claudy or La Bohemienne add softness and charm.
Modern or minimalist weddings: Clean typefaces like Gill Sans Light or Thermal VF keep things crisp and contemporary.
Whimsical or countryside weddings: Handwritten-style scripts like Wisteria feel fresh, playful, and personal.

2. Consider Readability
While script fonts are undeniably beautiful, they’re best reserved for names, headings, or special moments. For the finer details—like your ceremony time or venue—pair your script with a refined serif or sans-serif font that’s easy to read.

3. Pair Fonts Thoughtfully
A beautiful suite usually includes more than one font. The right pairing can add visual interest and help guide your guests through the information naturally. A few of our favorite combinations:

La Bohemienne + Cormorant Garamond – Romantic and timeless
Ms. Claudy + IvyOra Italic – Soft, elegant, and garden-inspired
Wisteria + Gill Sans Light – Playful yet polished
Didot Regular + Didot Italic – Formal and refined with a couture edge
Ms. Augustine + Thermal VF – Understated elegance with modern contrast

4. Think About Printing Techniques
Not all fonts behave the same when printed. Keep your printing method in mind:

Letterpress: Bold serif fonts like IvyOra or Didot create a beautiful, tactile impression.
Foil stamping: Flourished scripts like La Bohemienne or Ms. Claudy shine—literally.
Digital printing: Works wonderfully with clean fonts and modern layouts, especially when layering text over watercolor details.

At Daydream Paper Studio, we’ll guide you through every design decision—fonts included. Whether you’re envisioning classic romance, modern simplicity, or something in between, there’s a font pairing that will feel just right for your story.

Your wedding invitations should feel like a reflection of you—your style, your love story, and the tone you want to set for your big day. Whether you’re drawn to romantic scripts, timeless serifs, or modern sans-serif fonts, the key is choosing typography that complements your overall vision.
