WEDDING WEBSITE FONTS
Your wedding website is a beautiful portal to your special day, and choosing the right fonts is akin to selecting the perfect invitation script. It sets the tone, elevates your story, and whispers hints of your personality. From elegant serifs to playful scripts, each font choice dances with your theme, weaving magic through RSVPs, timelines, and love stories. Whether you opt for a classic pairing of elegance and simplicity, or lean into a quirky flourish, the perfect font combination will make your website sing with the joy and spirit of your union. So, let’s embark on a typography adventure, finding the fonts that flawlessly express the melody of your love.
HOW TO CHOOSE WEDDING WEBSITE FONTS
There are so many different typefaces on the web to choose from, and your font choices are practically limitless. While this is good in itself, it can be overwhelming if you don’t have at least a clear idea of what you want (or don’t want). When you choose wedding website fonts it is important to carefully consider the look, feel, and ambiance of your persoanlised wedding website. Then, see if the styling of that typeface you’re considering corresponds with the general look.
WEDDING WEBSITE TYPEFACES
When picking your personalised wedding website typefaces, aim for no more than three different fonts.
PRIMARY FONT / HEADER TEXT
(looks great in a bigger size and does a good job of grabbing attention)
Selecting the perfect primary font or header text for your wedding website feels like choosing the gown – it sets the tone, reflects your personalities, and becomes the unforgettable face of your virtual celebration. Do you envision elegant swirls that dance like calligraphy, whispering promises of a timeless romance? Or perhaps sleek, modern lines that hum with the energy of a joyful soirée?
Whatever your vision, the ideal font should resonate with both of you and seamlessly blend with your chosen theme. It should be clear and legible, even on smaller screens, yet still carry a touch of magic that reflects the love story unfolding. So, grab your laptops, pour a glass of bubbly, and get ready to embark on a delightful typographic adventure!
This will be the most visible font on your personalised wedding website. This font should be synonymous with your wedding theme. Primary fonts are mostly used for larger text, such as headings.

SECONDARY FONT / BODY TEXT
(both legible and easily readable)
Choosing the perfect secondary font for your wedding website feels like finding the missing jewel that completes your crown. While your main font might captivate hearts with its bold elegance or swoon-worthy script, the body text needs a reliable partner to whisper details, guide RSVPs, and make navigating your digital celebration a pure joy. This supporting act must be more than just functional; it needs to complement your chosen theme, whisper elegance, and offer a touch of your unique personality. Dive in with us, and let’s unlock the secrets of pairing fonts that harmoniously tell your love story through every byte and scroll.
Any article or description on your page is going to be in your secondary font. Above all else, your secondary font should be clean and easy to read.

TERTIARY / ACCENT FONT
(quickly catch the eye)
The main fonts on your wedding website have established the atmosphere, but now comes the delicate dance of adding a third, an accent. Think of it as the finishing touch on your wedding cake, a little flourish that complements without overpowering. This tertiary font, used sparingly for details like quotes, RSVP buttons, or playful asides, can whisper personality or inject a dash of unexpected charm. But choosing it is like finding the perfect pair of earrings – too bold and it clashes, too timid and it disappears. Let’s delve into the art of selecting the ideal tertiary font, the secret ingredient that takes your wedding website from “I do” to “wow!”
This one is entirely optional. Accent fonts can be used for specific website elements such as a call-to-action or a navigation menu. They should be prominent enough in order to quickly catch the eye of your visitors. But keep in mind that pairing two fonts is hard enough, without throwing a third into the mix.

DIFFERENT WEDDING WEBSITE FONTS
There are multiple things to consider when pairing different wedding website fonts. After all, each font has its own distinct character – some fonts appear more serious, some look more refined, while others have a more quirky and spontaneous feel to them.
SERIF
Serif typefaces are characterized by a decorative stroke located at the end of the vertical and horizontal strokes of the letters. Generally, serif typefaces are used with the intention to bring forward a more formal and elegant tone, which is why you will often find them among many elegant fonts.
SANS
Sans typefaces have no serifs on the letters (the word “sans” stands for “without” in French), and they are known for having a more modern and clean design compared to their serif counterparts. Sans fonts, on the other hand, most often symbolize minimalism, simplicity, and straightforwardness.
FONT COMBINATIONS FOR YOUR WEDDING WEBSITE
When pairing font combinations for your wedding website mixing two fonts with different “moods” might actually do the trick – they do say that opposites attract, and this rule applies to typefaces as well. Try combining blunt font types with more neutral, subdued ones. The former should be used for headlines, while the latter works best for body copy.
Another good combination you can rarely go wrong with is to mix serifs and sans serifs. The pairing of fonts is all about creating contrast, and serifs and sans serifs are more than sufficient to create a subtle but distinct difference when paired up.
