Re: Which font for invitations/place card calligraphy do you like??

#1 or #2

Probably #2 because of the way the G looks.

I don't like #3 for an invitation.

#1 is nice but I prefer the G in #2

Re: Which font for invitations/place card calligraphy do you like??

#3 is good if your theme is Medieval or Renaissance. Otherwise, #2 is the most readable.

Re: Which font for invitations/place card calligraphy do you like??

I love #1. #3 seems okay if you are going for a celtic theme.

I like #2 best. I think #3 is celtic. At least I use it for all my Hibernian correspondence!

Re: Which font for invitations/place card calligraphy do you like??

I'm not a big fan of the Y in #1 though.

You really have to look at all the letters when you choose calligraphy. I just had the hardest time when doing my invitations. My FH has 3 G's in his first name alone!

Re: Which font for invitations/place card calligraphy do you like??

I'm between 1 and 2. I picked 'keep looking' because I didn't think either were as readable as they should be.

#3 is readable but I think it depends upon your theme. It looks very Celtic.

Re: Which font for invitations/place card calligraphy do you like??

I like #1 the best, it's unusual

#3 is nicer (IMO) for place cards but not invitations

#2 is also nice! Sorry I'm not much help!
