Help needed, im making a wedding invite. The names are to be printed on the wedding card are:

Kareem wa Sylvia (Kareem and Sylvia)

which has been translated into : كريم و سيلفيا

Ok so they have given 2 examples top left of picture:



on the bottom are the names. (*) and ive cut out some text to reuse.(1,2,3,4)

Now ive asked them what shape it should be , im thinking oval to fit the shape of the text.

Also ive asked them do i just use the surrounding text .(1,2,3,4) from the example and use in the invite?

So im asking you all too! Anyone have experiance in doing arabic caliigraphy?

Any tips or examples you can share?

Thanks in advance

I have no experience in Arabic Calligraphy but I do like your choice of oval style. It looks pretty neat.

I didn't quite get your question about the surrounding text....

Hmm can't be of much help. If you don't find anyone here check deviantart.com you will find tons of arabic calligraphy experts there. Search for something like arabic or calligraphy.
