One of the feature request I've docced for WSB16 is a dialog to quickly replace all fonts. Until then there's another way (which is easy enough).
Info: WSB removes the need of MUI files by adding all string resources in the resource directory of the msstyles. The property Font:Font is a string resource so it's in the string table, that's how we can easily modify the fonts.
How to:
Step 1: Save your progress in WSB if you're currently working on it and close WSB.
Step 2: Open your theme in a resource hacker. I used Restorator 2007.

Step 3: Navigate to the string resource and expand.

Step 4: Drag/drop (or export) Neutral into Explorer.
Step 5: Open Neutral.rc in a text editor. I used Notepad++.

Step 6: Replace all instances of Segoe UI with your font.

Step 7: Save Neutral.rc
Step 8: Drag/Drop (or import) the new Neutral.rc from Explorer back into your resource hacker.
Step 9: Save your theme.
Step 10: Apply
