Pretty script fonts

sarahcazee

Hi everyone, I'm in desperate need of some inspiration. I do a lot of custom invitations as a side gig and I'm just tiring of the same scripts all the time. I've posted 3 that I'm sure are hand drawn but there must be fonts out there that are just as full of character. If anyone has any tips I would love it!

Apologies if this isn't the right forum for this question.

Thanks!

#3 is P22 Zaner 4

Hey Paul, can you give us the name of the designer of P22 Zaner? :-)

you just did

Sarah,
You know you have come to the right place for a font ID when the guy who designed the font IDs it for you :-)

I'm not sure the first one is a font. if so it's got some nice OpenType programming. the two a's and the 2 l's are subtly different if you look closely. it's a bit harder to tell with the i's ant the r's...

I think the first is hand calligraphy. The 'l's are also different and the dots. I think we'd know about it if it was a font. I recommend Dear Sarah as an alternative.

#2 - American Scribe is a similar antique style.

Hey, thanks everyone! Paul, I've added Zaner4 to my wishlist, it's really nicely done. Feel script, from the other wedding script thread is fantastic, I love how it's sort of whimsical. I can't wait to use. Dear Sarah I have and completely overuse so I'm very happy for these other options.

I've also been in touch with some caligraphers, which just might be the answer for this particular invite.
