I caution you to use a script font sparingly, especially on a website, because it can be more challenging to read. I do love to use them as accents and for packaging and stationery though.
I also highly recommend test driving a font and making sure you like how the letters connect and how they are formed prior to purchasing. Are you a script font fan?

pro tip
I always recommend a test drive of the font before purchasing if available. Type out words or the alphabet so that you can see all letterforms. I won’t lie, there have been times that I have liked a font until I saw how one letter was formed and it was ruined for me. The tiny details can really make a big impact when you are talking about font selection.
