Create heartfelt, personalized birthday messages and wishes for any relationship
I want to write a birthday message that feels personal and genuine rather than generic. The birthday message is for [RECIPIENT_NAME] who is my [RELATIONSHIP:select:parent,child,spouse or partner,sibling,friend,coworker,boss,grandparent,aunt or uncle,cousin,in-law,someone I am dating]. They are turning [AGE?] (leave blank if you prefer not to mention age). Something special about them or our relationship: [SPECIAL_DETAILS] A shared memory or inside joke I could reference: [MEMORY?] The tone should be [TONE:select:warm and heartfelt,funny and light,sincere and emotional,casual and friendly,professional but warm,nostalgic and reflective]. The message will be [FORMAT:select:on a card,in a text message,in an email,posted on social media,spoken in person,part of a gift]. Write 3 different birthday messages so I can choose or combine my favorites. Make each one feel personal by incorporating the details I shared. Vary the approach between the three versions. Keep them the appropriate length for my format. Avoid cliched phrases like "hope all your dreams come true." If I included a memory or inside joke, weave it in naturally. Make it sound like something I would actually say, not like a generic greeting card.

Get Early Access"Happy birthday! Hope it is a great one." You have sent that message a hundred times. It says nothing personal. It could be for anyone. But writing something genuinely heartfelt feels harder than it should, especially when you care about the person and want the message to reflect that.
This prompt creates three different birthday messages tailored to your specific relationship. Tell it who [RECIPIENT_NAME] is, what makes them special through [SPECIAL_DETAILS], a shared memory or inside joke, the tone you want, and how the message will be delivered (card, text, social media, spoken aloud). Each version takes a different approach so you can pick your favorite or combine elements from all three.
The messages avoid greeting-card cliches. No "may all your dreams come true" or "another year around the sun." Instead, they reference the actual details you shared, weaving in your specific memories and observations about the person. A birthday text for your best friend reads completely differently than a card for your grandmother. Save your draft in the Dock Editor to refine it before sending. For another big occasion, the wedding speech writer follows a similar personalized approach. Writing poetry for someone? The poetry generator creates verse tailored to any subject.
Enter the [RECIPIENT_NAME] and select your [RELATIONSHIP]. The AI adjusts warmth, humor, and formality based on whether you are writing for a parent, partner, friend, coworker, or boss. Add their [AGE] or leave it blank if you prefer not to mention it.
In [SPECIAL_DETAILS], describe what you genuinely appreciate about this person. "She drops everything when a friend needs help" or "He makes every room funnier just by walking in." Specific observations create personal messages. Generic praise creates generic messages.
In [MEMORY], include a specific moment you shared. "That time we got lost hiking and ended up at the best taco truck" beats "we've had great times together." Inside jokes work too. The AI weaves these naturally into the message.
Select your [TONE] and [FORMAT]. A text message is shorter and more casual than a card. A social media post is public-facing. A spoken message can be longer and more emotional. These constraints shape the length and style of each version.
Review all three versions. Choose the one that sounds most like you, or take your favorite lines from each. Edit anything that does not feel authentic. The best birthday message is one that sounds like it came from you, not from a prompt.
Write messages that reference shared history, inside jokes, and the real reasons this friendship matters. The AI creates messages your friend would save in their screenshots folder.
Navigate the tricky balance between heartfelt and not-too-much. Parent messages carry different emotional weight than sibling messages. The AI adjusts depth and sentimentality based on your [RELATIONSHIP] selection.
Write something warmer than "happy birthday" without crossing professional boundaries. The AI creates messages that are genuine and personal while staying appropriate for a work relationship.
Express what your partner means to you without falling into cliches. The AI uses your shared details to create messages that feel intimate and specific rather than generic and sentimental.
