Bryan,

You're right in not wanting to use another script -- multiple script fonts in one document often do not play well together.

I would choose from some of the well-crafted, lighter weight serif fonts that look like they have roots in calligraphy. A few that come to mind include Brioso, Stempel Garamond, Galliard, or Palatino.

For a different, more modern feel, you can choose sans serifs, such as Futura, Myriad or Eras.

The important thing is to keep this other type from overwhelming Zapfino. Use lighter weights, conservative fonts. Keep it airy by adding a lot of leading. Use sizes and weights that contrast with the Zapfino without overwhelming it. Explore the alternate characters that are available with Zapfino and craft each word. Let the Zapfino stand on its own as a design element.
