FAQ

How do I wish someone a happy 20th birthday?

A 20th birthday is a big milestone, marking the beginning of adulthood for many people. Whether you’re writing a happy 20th birthday wish for an acquaintance, coworker, or friend, you should keep the tone of your message positive, upbeat, and optimistic for the future. You can wish them well on their future endeavors, congratulate them on recent accomplishments, and tell them you’re excited to see what the future holds for them. You can also add a personal touch by sharing a funny or nostalgic story about the two of you from when you first met, and connect it to a personal quality of theirs that you value. Or, if you prefer to keep it simple, you can wish them a happy 20th birthday and a great year ahead. If you’re not as close with the person, simply wish them a happy 20th birthday, let them know how happy you are to have them in your life, and tell them that you hope they’ll always be happy and successful! Browse our selection of happy 20th birthday messages for a little bit of inspiration to get you started.

What can I say to someone on their 20th birthday?

A 20th birthday is a very special milestone that marks the end of the teen years and the start of adulthood. When writing a happy birthday wish for someone on their 20th birthday, it’s important to keep the significance of this birthday in mind, while also keeping your message lighthearted and fun. This is such a significant age that brings with it so many changes, but it’s important to avoid mentioning anything that could add stress to the situation. Many people are still figuring things out at this age, and telling them that they’re old enough to find a serious partner, or hone in on a specific career, may be meant as encouraging, but can oftentimes come off as pressuring or stressful. Instead, consider including a joke, a funny story, or a fun memory in your birthday wish to them, and connect it to a quality of theirs that you admire or value. If you’re writing for someone you don’t know very well, keep it simple – wish them a happy birthday, and tell them you hope they have a wonderful year ahead. For a bit of inspiration to help you get started, take a look at our selection of 20th birthday wishes and messages here at Styiens!
