Tips When Using Other Ways to Say Happy Birthday
-
1Be positive. No matter which words you use, focus on sending the brightest wishes to the person celebrating the birthday. Remind them how wonderful they are and how happy you are to have them in your life. Hope for them to not only celebrate a great birthday but to have a fabulous year ahead.
-
2Personalize your message. Use an intimate story that you and the birthday guy or gal share to make your greeting unique. Talk about a funny or poignant memory you both went through together so they feel blessed on their birthday. Be as specific as possible with details, so your words paint a picture in their mind.
-
3Be appropriate about the occasion. If the person is celebrating a milestone birthday, emphasize its importance. If they’re sensitive about getting older, leave out the old jokes. When you know you have complete permission to get creative, sarcastic, or out there with your birthday greeting, put everything you’ve got into it. They’ll appreciate you on their special day.
