Need a Birthday Wish for Your Girlfriend? Try One of These 180 Options

Your girlfriend’s birthday festivities require all the effort you can spare. No matter what her preferred celebration looks like (a romantic home-cooked dinner, a stylish designer gift, or maybe even a weekend getaway), she deserves to be showered with every bit of luxury that’s within your means. Obviously, you should be treating her like a goddess daily, but this is the only day on the calendar that demands you pull out all the stops (besides Valentine’s Day, your anniversary, and those national BF/GF days that seem to fall every other month). But regardless of what sort of lavish celebration you’re planning, what’s for certain is that it needs to be paired with a sentimental, well-thought-out birthday message. Material goods are one thing, but you should also express your love and appreciation for your other half in a card, an Instagram post, or in an early morning text (send it at midnight on the dot if you’re really about it).

We know that when it comes time to put pen to paper and let the people we love know how we feel, it can be almost impossible to find the right words. So we’re here to offer you some message inspo for your girlfriend’s very special day. Whether you’re trying to draft a sweet note, a short one, or a funny one that’ll make her big day feel a bit brighter, we have an option for you. Take your pick of the many ideas we’ve rounded up below. And tell your girl we said HBD.
