One tip I would like to share, when laying out your text do not make the body font height taller than the height of your names. Just my opinion. This will give you a more classy look. However, if you are creating a chalkboard design, then mixing and matching is fun and a must!
1. Josefin Slab – 12pt with 27pt leading looks lovely with Rosemary Italic Regular 48pt (I am sorry, unfortunately this font is a calligrapher’s font and he no longer sells it)
2. Modern No. 20 – 12pt with 22pt leading is perfect to me with Bombshell 35pt
3. Mrs Eaves All Caps – 12pt using 24pt leading is fabulous with Cantoni Pro 48pt
4. Arvo – 13pt with 22pt leading for parents names and then 10.5pt and 22pt leading for the invitation body is awesome with Carolyna Pro Black 38pt for the names
5. Mrs Eaves All Caps – 12pt with 24pt leading for parents names and then 10pt and 24pt leading for the wedding invitation body looks lovely with Asterism 55pt
6. Mrs Eaves All Caps – 12pt with 24pt leading for parents names and then 10pt and 24pt leading for the invie body looks super with Bellucia 55pt
