Graceful and traditionally feminine, the Surrey Photo Ribbon Birth Announcement features elegant script typography designed to feel poised, classic, and enduring. The flowing letterforms give baby’s name a soft yet confident presence — refined today and just as beautiful decades from now.
Designed to feature a traditional wallet-size photograph in a horizontal layout, Surrey blends portraiture with timeless script in a way that feels intentional and heirloom-inspired. The photograph adds warmth and personality, while the typography maintains a polished and composed presentation.
Finished with a hand-tied ribbon detail, this announcement offers a refined, traditional presentation in a clean and tailored format. The ribbon adds subtle dimension and charm without distracting from the photograph.
Especially lovely for baby girls, Surrey is a font designed to grow with her — from birth announcements to calling cards, graduation luncheons, bridal showers, and even wedding invitations one day.
Tip from Jody: I love the idea of choosing this font at birth and carrying it forward throughout her life. It feels timeless from the very beginning.
A beautiful beginning with lasting elegance.
