Providing guests with the relevant information, such as venues and seating arrangements, is the main purpose of your wedding stationery. It is essential to choose fonts that can be read easily read in order to remove the chance of confusion. Whilst considering the practicalities is important, there are also other factors that need to be considered; such as how your font selection can impact on the feel of your wedding day.
Setting the tone
You should consider the theme of your wedding as well as the tone you are looking to set at the first instance. A flowing scroll is usually a good choice when you wedding will be based around a traditional theme. More contemporary weddings will lend themselves to font styles that have straighter lettering with sharper angles.
Delivering the message
Many couples see their font selection of their wedding stationery as a chance to make a statement. However, overly decorative writing can be difficult to read and as a result some information can be lost or misread. It is also important to consider each piece of wedding stationery individually in relation to how much information you wish to put across. It is very likely that most guests will be able to spot their own name when written even in the most elaborate font. In contrast it can be much more difficult to read lots of information that is written in the same font.
Mixing your fonts
It is a frequent misconception that couples believe they should select just one font which they should stay with throughout their wedding stationery. In reality the use of different fonts can be very useful in wedding stationery. In some cases it might even work best to mix different fonts into the same piece of stationery. For example in your wedding invitations you could write your guest’s names in flowing writing, with the other details such as venue and times in a clearer font.
