60 Original Birthday Wishes: Write Something That Will Be Remembered!

Have you ever stood over a blank card with a pen in your hand and your head was... completely silent? Or did you write the standard "Happy Birthday, live long and healthy" and then think to yourself: "Eh, I could have come up with something more original" ?

Relax, we've all been there.

The truth is, people rarely keep cards for the picture on the front (unless it's one of our crazy cards , of course 😉). They keep them for the words inside. For that moment when they smile and say to themselves: "This was written just for me!" .

That's why today we decided to help you. We've collected 60 great ideas for wishes – from funny and fresh, to kind and touching. No need to copy verbatim – take the idea, add something of your own and make the person's holiday a little more special.

Here are our suggestions:

🎈 Funny and Fresh (Because laughter is the best gift)

If the birthday boy is a joker and has a sense of humor, forget about the clichés. Here are some ideas to break the ice:

1. "Happy birthday! I wish your life is as sweet as cake and doesn't stick to your waist (or at least not right away)!"

2. "Don't worry about age. You're like fine wine - you only become more expensive with time and lead to headaches if we overdo it with you!"

3. "The secret to eternal youth is simple: live honestly, eat slowly and... lie about your age!"

4. "I wish you so many gifts that you need a truck, and so much happiness that your heart can't hold it all!"

5. "Congratulations! Today is the only day of the year that calories officially don't count. Go bold with the cake!"

8. "Happy birthday! Be like the sun – always shine, even when there are clouds around."

9. "I wish you find what you're looking for before you forget what it was!"
