Birthday Speech or Toast for Myself
How to write an inspiring birthday message about yourself
I am here to help you out because I can see that you are looking for help with your birthday wishes.
Well, just give me a few minutes of your precious time and I will help you easily write a memorable 21st, 25th, 30th, 40th, 50th, 60th, 65th, 70th, 75th, 80th birthday speech or toast for yourself even if you think you are not cut out for speaking in public.
A Happy Birthday Gift for You
First and foremost, let me congratulate you on your birthday and wish you a happy birthday filled with health, love, laughter and happiness.
I have a little surprise for you. Can you guess what it is? It is evergreen birthday song specially dedicated to you!
Please click on the video clip to enjoy this song before we continue with this and it will certainly make your day.
I am sure you smiled as you listened to that beautiful piece of music. You actually deserve more than that because you are a very special person.
Now, let’s dive right in. You obviously have been to lots of birthday parties. But I am pretty sure you didn’t pay much attention to how the speeches were delivered.
I am sure you never thought someday you will have to stand in front of your family and friends to say something about yourself on your birthday.
Your friends and family will be coming over to celebrate with you and they are going to shower you with tons of gifts and beautiful cards that convey their best wishes because you mean the world to them.
And there’s no better way to express gratitude than to let them know how incredibly thankful you are for their love and support over the years because you are a living product of their unconditional love.
A great thank you birthday message or speech can help you accomplish just that. But it shouldn’t end with words of gratitude if you really want to inspire the party-goers with heartwarming stories of your life and how you have come out stronger for it.
I always advise birthday celebrants celebrating their 50th, 60th, 65th, 70th, 75th, 80th, 85th etc. birthday parties to tell inspirational stories about their lives since that's what their friends and family will remember most after they have downed their glasses of wine and filled their tummies with food.
Why You Should Do This before You Write Your Birthday Speech or Toast for Yourself
Before you even think of putting your message together, you first have to decide on the goals of your birthday toast.
Do you want to simply say a few words thanking everyone for coming? Or do you want to pack your speech with fond memories?
If your goal is to thank certain personalities who have played a key role in your life, then this is what I recommend you do right away.
Grab a pen and note pad or journal and write down names of those individuals and mention why you are thanking them.
You can say a special thank you to people like
- God for the gift of life…
- Your own parents if they are alive…If they have returned to dust, you can say something like:
My mom and dad are not around. But I am sure they are looking down at me with pride and gratitude …
- Your friends....even if they can’t make it, just mention their names and let them know how blessed you are to have to have them in your life.
- Your husband or wife.
- Your own children
- Your in-laws
- Of course, you should thank guests who traveled from far and near to attend the party as well as people who sent in their best wishes.

Dear friends and Dearest kids, a warm welcome to all of you!
I am highly honored and grateful to all of you for making to this event. As you all are aware, a year ago, on the same date, our little princess was born. She brought a lot of happiness and charm to our life along with big hopes and dreams.
We had been waiting for this event to celebrate her birthday and thank all those people through this occasion who gifted us with their blessings and wishes.
First of all, I would thank God for bringing this moment in our life when I am standing in front of all of you along with my daughter who is dressed up as a princess waiting to cut her cake and hear the birthday song.
Very few of you know that my pregnancy was full of complications but all thanks to our gynaecologist, Dr. X, who never gave up hoping a normal delivery. I would specially like to take this opportunity to thank her on this special occasion. Doctor, we are truly grateful to you for making it so simple and memorable for us.
I would like to thank my husband for standing by my side and loving me unconditionally. All my family members are great and have always stimulated my hope of having a child and see, because of their wishes; I am celebrating this event today.
I would especially like to thank my sister for organizing such a grand party on this occasion. The music, lights, cake, balloons, food and drinks, everything is amazing. Thank you Y, you have been a great sister and a darling aunt to my daughter. This party comes to me as a surprise and let me tell you, I just loved it.
I would also like to thank all my colleagues and relatives who have visited us tonight and are a part of this celebration.
Today is a week day and I was not expecting many people to attend this event, but this is really overwhelming for me to see you all here and thank you very much bringing those lovely gifts.
Dinner is arranged on the first floor and I request all of you to assemble in the hall upstairs right after half an hour from now to have your dinner.
Kids, please don’t go without taking your balloons, birthday caps, masks and off course your respective return gifts. Parents have to make sure that no child goes empty handed.
Thank you once again everyone, please enjoy!
That was a very simple and witty example you can customize to write a birthday message for yourself.
How to Put Your Ideas Together to write a Birthday Toast for Yourself
To get your ideas flowing in a chronological order, there are a few steps you have to follow before you tie the loose parts together.
First, put yourself in the mood by watching a few videos about how birthday speeches or toasts are made.
Thankfully, YouTube has a lot of them and I am happy to share with you two examples so you can figure out what goes into writing a sweet birthday wish.
As you watch these short clips, please look out for ideas and tips that can help you express the deepest sentiments of your heart.
Please jot down ideas you think you can incorporate into your own birthday message as you watch them.
Here you go:

Second, decide on the style you wish to use for your birthday toast. Do you want it sound funny, sentimental, or you just want to tell a simple story?
It’s always best to use a combination of all styles even if you want to tell a story since it’s the surest way of making your birthday message very unique and memorable.
Third, you should always read and study well written birthday speech or toast templates and model yours after them if you don’t want to spend countless hours thinking about what to say and what not to say.
To make things easier for you, I am going to share with you a short birthday example that captures what I was talking about in the last paragraph.
Please note: Although this is for a 70th birthday speech example, we are going to break it down afterwards and use the lessons learned to write your own birthday speech even if you are celebrating your 30th, 40th, 50th, 60th, 65th, 70th, 80th, 90th birthday.
Now, here we go: Writer Mark Twain’s 70th Birthday Speech
"Now, ladies and gentlemen, and Colonel Harvey, I will try not to be greedy on your behalf in wishing the health of our honored and, in view of his great age, our revered guest. I will not say, 'Oh King, live forever!' but 'Oh King, live as long as you like!'"
