Writing a letter, a card, or a note for someone you love is one of the most beautiful ways to express your feelings. And although what you say in your letter matters the most, using proper romantic fonts to convey your message can be equality important.
However, finding the right font can be a tedious task. With hundreds of thousands of fonts available online, picking the right one can take hours of your time.
So, to celebrate all the card writing and googly eye celebrating you might do this year, I’ve compiled a list of 25 free romantic fonts you can use for different occasions.
Download via the links below to make all your love letters unwittingly nice this year.
1. Segatha
I would like to start off with one of the most professional free fonts on my list. Segatha is a cursive script created by Ef Studio. You can use this font every time you want to simulate a handwriting, express your romantic feelings, or create a perfect thank you note.
2. Alokary
Alokary is a modern, easily readable sans script by Hishand-Studio. This free font is best used for grabbing attention, and should be applied to short notes and large headlines.

Created by Letterara, Backstreet is probably one of the most modern cursive fonts on my list. I often use this font to communicate with younger generations or when I don’t want to be taken too seriously.

18. Anttariksa
Anttariksa is another brush stroke simulating font on my list created by String Labs. Unlike their previous work, Anttariksa is less rigid and more like a handwriting. This is a font with character and possibly one of the most realistic handwriting fonts I came across.
19. Walkester
Ninetieth place goes to Walkester, another great font from Brandsemut. This print script resembles old romantic magazine fonts and is great for longer texts where readability is the key.
20. Stay In Villa
Stay In Villa by Scartchones is the only font on my list that simulates the trace left by markers on a thick paper. This font is made for quick “I love you” notes and greeting cards.

24. Smiling Dreamer
Smiling Dreamer by Seemly Fonts is another free romantic font belonging to a print script. This font is condense but easy to read. Smiling Dreamer is upper case dominant, and it is best if you use it for short messages or headlines.

Thanks!!! These are fantastic fonts :)
These are lovely, thanks for sharing! I really love Ever After.
Several of these aren’t free.. which makes me a little sad.
But lovely nonetheless x
Hey Sophie! The ones that are not showing up free to purchase should all be loaded into the font library on your computer. We included some that come free in your library, but actually cost if you were to purchase them. Hope that makes sense. Check your font library:) Thanks!
Hi there – thanks for this great collection! I have just started making my wedding invitations so the timing was perfect. I am very new to all of this and I saw in a previous comment that some of these fonts look like you have to pay for them but they are available for free in a font library. Ummmm….what is a font library? Do I have one? Where would I find one? Ha, so new to all of this. Thanks so much!
What a great list! Ever After is such a great find. Thank you for putting together :)
Ooooh! Thanks a lot! This is really a lovely selection :)
You couldn’t have posted these at a better time. Im working on a menu and have been in search of fonts. I can tell some of these are def. perfect for it!

That would be Arial bold :) Thanks!

Hi! Love these fonts, such a great collection.

Is there a way for you to put up the web use links for these fonts? If you don’t mind, I’d like to use some of these fonts for my website that I have to make for class. If that’s way too much trouble, am I allowed to throw them through a font generator online for css use? I don’t know if there’s any permissions problems attached to these but I really like them!
Thanks!
I adore so many of these fonts – would love to use them all! I’ve linked to this post in a post on my own blog – http://thingsiwouldloveto.blogspot.co.uk/2013/02/fab-freebies-ii.html
Love this web site – have only just found it :)

what is the font that is used underneath all the decorative fonts? I love it!
I love this collection and I was so surprised to discover I had many of them but never thought about using them in different ways! Thanks a bunch! :)
Some very nice fonts here, but the font that purports to be Bodoni MT is very different from what is linked.
This is such a great series. It’s tough to find great collections of free fonts. Thanks for doing this!
I showcased your font selection on my blog and linked back to you. I hope you don’t mind! :)
If you’re not comfortable with that, please just let me know!
Thaks for sharing, excellent selection! d:0)
Hi! Lovin’ these fonts. Was wondering if you could tell me what font you wrote all the font names in? Thanks!
Sorry, to clarify: I was curious to know the sub-font you used under all the “Romantic Fonts” to denote the main font name. Really like it!
It is very hard to find a collection of great fonts and put it all together, so kudos on that ! Also thank you very much. Im definatly re-pinning this :)
