Find Your Wedding Style in Font Form

Before you start scrolling through thousands of fonts, think about your overall wedding style. If you dream of:

Classic & Romantic, then look for flowing scripts with elegant swashes.

Modern & Minimal, then search for sleek sans serifs or clean serif fonts with high contrast.

Whimsical & Fun, then seek out hand-lettered scripts, playful flourishes, or quirky serifs.

There are no hard and fast rules when it comes to finding a font that you love. Of course, there are design practices that make things more pleasant to the eye and give that wow factor, but at the end of the day, go for what makes your heart sing and represents your wedding vibe.

If you're using your fonts with your Cricut machine and you want to know what works best, we literally wrote the article for that to help you! So check out our Ultimate Guide to the Best Wedding Fonts for Cricut Machines to get more insight.

💡 PRO TIP: Use no more than two or three fonts in your whole wedding suite. One for big headlines (like your names), one for the main details, and possibly a small accent for things like table numbers or signage.

Download Your Fonts from Creative Fabrica

Once you find "the one" (or the perfect pair), download the font files from Creative Fabrica. Most come as .OTF or .TTF files — both will work, but OTFs often have extra stylistic touches like alternate letters or pretty swashes.

You can also 'favorite' your font finds as well as located your downloads under My Downloads if you're still in the research or creative gathering stage.

Install & Use Your Fonts in Cricut Design Space

Ready to get crafting? Getting your new font into Design Space is simple. Just install the font on your computer. (If using a smartphone or tablet, you'll need to look up instructions specific to your device on how to install and use fonts. It can be a little fiddly, but it's not impossible!) After you've installed, open Cricut Design Space so you can see the new font on your Canvas screen.

When adding text in Design Space, click the Text icon, choose System Fonts, and scroll until you see your new font name. If your font includes special characters or alternates, you may need to use your computer's character map or a glyphs panel in a design program to access them before creating your design in Design Space.

Design Tips for Picture-Perfect Cricut Wedding Projects

• Test your font size: Thin script strokes can disappear when cut too small. Keep scripts bigger for names and headlines.

• Delicate fonts are best for print-only: Avoid textured or really thin, delicate fonts for any cutting projects. Keep these to your Print Then Cut designs if using a Cricut machine.

• Mind your paper or material: Textured cardstocks can make fine lines tricky; smoother materials keep details crisp, especially when using the draw functionality with your Cricut.

• Unite your letters: For connected scripts, use Design Space's Unite tool so letters cut as one smooth shape instead of in little pieces.

• Keep swashes safe: Long flourishes look gorgeous printed but may be too delicate for vinyl or cardstock cuts, so do a test cut first or save them for invitations or signs that are printed rather than cut.

💡 PRO TIP: In Design Space, Unite and Weld essentially do the same thing. The biggest difference is that Unite can be edited afterwards while Weld makes your design permanent. For batch-making wedding DIYs, we recommend sticking with Unite just in case you need to adjust something or make something different closer to the wedding day.

When we think about meaningful destination weddings, Emma and Danny's summer celebration on Martha's Vineyard understood the assignment. As a couple whose love story blossomed through shared family values and serendipitous connections, they brought heartfelt intention and coastal style to every detail of their July wedding at the Martha's Vineyard Museum in Vineyard Haven, Massachusetts.

From the bride's stunning embroidered floral-and-vine wedding veil to the blue and white floral print napkins, photographer Elizabeth Cecil captured every moment beautifully.

From NYC to the Vineyard: A Love Story Anchored in Fate

Emma and Danny first met on Hinge, discovering early on that they not only grew up 15 minutes apart but had unknowingly shared many of the same spaces — including the same synagogue. Danny even attended the same college where Emma's parents first met decades ago! It felt like destiny from the beginning, and Martha’s Vineyard quickly became their favorite escape throughout their relationship, especially during the pandemic. So, when Danny proposed on the island's South Beach — during a break in a Nor’easter, no less — it felt only right to bring all their loved ones back to their favorite place to say "I do."

Why Martha's Vineyard Was the Only Choice

The Vineyard was more than just a pretty place for Danny and Emma; it was a sanctuary. From beach picnics to quiet walks, they built so many beautiful memories there, so they wanted their favorite people to experience that same magic on the big day. The Martha's Vineyard Museum, with its sweeping views of Lagoon Pond, made the perfect setting for both their ceremony and reception.

Coastal Colors and Lush Florals

The joyful couple leaned into a coastal-inspired color palette of whitewashed neutrals, pale blues, crisp whites, and soft pinks to reflect the island's natural beauty. Through lush hydrangeas and other textural blooms, Morrice Florist transformed the aesthetic, especially with their greenery-decorated chuppah overlooking the water. The florals struck that perfect balance between elegant and organic — exactly what they envisioned to complement the scenery.

A Dream Team Behind the Details

KG Events & Design brought Emma and Danny’s Vineyard celebration to life with thoughtful, layered design from start to finish. As guests arrived, they were greeted by a striking seating chart display mounted on a white mid-century-inspired geometric screen — reminiscent of breeze blocks with a subtle Moroccan influence. Adorned with custom signage and floral accents, it set the tone for the stylish reception ahead. Inside the sailcloth tent, a ceiling of draping greenery created a romantic, wild garden-inspired atmosphere all the way down to their blue and white print napkins that felt effortlessly elegant.

Personalized Culinary Experiences

Food was incredibly important to Emma and Danny as all of their Vineyard memories were filled with beachside lunches, casual lobster rolls, and fresh oysters. They recreated that laid-back island cuisine through local caterer, V. Jaime Hamlin & Sons. One of the most special touches was the fruit-bedecked tiered cake: a take on Emma's favorite college treat, Los Angeles' popular Triple Berry Cake by Sweet Lady Jane, beautifully reimagined by Val Cakes MV.

And what would a Vineyard wedding be without Back Door Donuts? Late into the night on the dance floor, the happy couple made sure that hot apple fritters and donuts be passed around for all to enjoy. It was a total crowd favorite!

Sentimental Moments and Joyful Celebrations

Danny and Emma wrote their own vows, something that felt really important and deeply personal. And while they had a formal wedding party, they requested just their families stand by their side at the chuppah to honor those who raised them. They also had all four of their grandparents in attendance which the couple remembers as an incredibly special gift.

From the ketubah signing ceremony to the joy-filled horah, the lovebirds wove their Jewish heritage all throughout the day, making it even more meaningful as they start their next chapter together.

A Night to Remember

The dance floor was electric thanks to The Sultans band as nothing beats live music to bring the energy! Emma and Danny loved seeing both of their families up on stage together at the end of the night singing and dancing. It was the perfect end to a day that celebrated love, family, and that good ole island charm.
