As with various styles of handwriting, script fonts convey many moods to suit whatever occasion you may have in mind. You will want to consider your occasion, as a script font used for sending a formal invitation to a wedding or another such formal event may not be suitable for a kids birthday party.

Script fonts can be broadly classified into formal, casual and quirky types of fonts. The formal variations usually convey elegance and are appropriate to use with ornate decorations of invitations, some examples are Edwardian Script and French Script. Casual script fonts as the name implies are for casual affairs, fonts like freestyle and Bradley hand. Quirky fonts, such as the cursed fonts, may be fonts with symbols or used extremely creatively.
