Birthday Message For Wife #1
Now, I would like to thank Reason and Meaning for this short but sweet but short 60th Birthday.
On September 12th, 1954 a little girl was born in south St. Louis. One little girl born in one hospital, in one city, on one planet, at one precise moment in the vastness of space and time. A miraculous occurrence that made the world better and more beautiful.
Simple words to describe what happened when Jane was born—goodness and beauty increased in the world.
But Jane didn’t keep this goodness and beauty to herself—she shared it by loving. Everyone who has ever touched or been touched by Jane has felt the warmth of her love.
The circle of her love and concern begins with family but extends to the whole world. If the world was full of people like her, how beautiful it would be. She is a shining star in a dark world, she is incorruptible, she is impossible not to love.
I don’t know if my love for my wife is important in the whole scheme of things. I don’t know if anything is. But I know that my life is richer and happier and less lonely and more joyful because of her.
And I know the world needs love because it makes life worth living. Meeting Jane long ago rendered the inevitable loneliness of life more than tolerable, it rendered life meaningful. What began as a glance has lasted a lifetime. I was blessed.
Still, my words are powerless to express my love. Maybe I can say it in a song....(please click on the video to hear it)
Birthday Speech from Husband to Wife Example/Template # 2
Hello and welcome everybody. I want to thank you for being here today. Before I say a few words about my beautiful wife, I would like to thank you for helping us celebrate her 40th birthday.
We are so grateful that you took some time out of your busy week to join us here. Tonight wouldn't be nearly as amazing without you!
Martha, it is hard to find the right words to express how much you have added to my life all these years…but that won't stop me from going on and on about you.
It's incredible to think that 5 years have since passed since I first met her. She was then 35 back then and now 40 years old.
Some of you always tell us that we look like Jake and Rose from the movie Titanic . That’s a nice compliment to say to a loving couple.
So, before I tell you how much my wife means to mean, I would like to take this opportunity to tell you how we met and how we’ve come thus far if you don’t know our love story.
When Maggie and I met at a friend’s birthday party. It’s funny I have to share this at another birthday party.
I had just graduated college and was thinking about my next move in my life. So meeting a girl let alone talk about dating her wasn’t party of my goals. I couldn’t even see myself dating anyone anytime soon.
I didn’t even want to be at that party because I was so consumed with stress. But I thought why not get there to have a couple of drinks and probably meet some old friends.
At the party itself, this incredibly beautiful woman kept smiling at me and i really enjoyed every bit of it. Eventually I walked over to her table and said...my exact words weew: “I’m sorry, I never approach women this way but I have not been able to take my eyes off you all night long. You have this aura, like a bright yellow sunbeam surrounding you. Do you mind if I sit beside you?”
That was how fast it was. It was not like getting to know a person; it was more like two souls recognizing each other and catching up for lost time.
The conversation came so easily, we were so wrapped up in our conversation that our friends started to feel left out. We talked for hours and hours and at the end of the night , it felt like my had changed for the better. No more stress, no more worries, you know what I am talking about guys!
I called her on the phone three times the next day. The first call was in the morning, another in the afternoon and the last call at night.
She was so caring and funny and as the calls became a regular part of our lives, it felt like she was going to be my dream woman.
We were inseparable after that. Yes, it was her amazing smile and charm that got me, but it was kind nature that stole my heart.
Her encouraging nature revived my hopes and she inspired me to find my first ever job. The years have gone by so fast and I still see her smile everywhere I look. It’s taken on a special meaning tonight with our precious baby girl in her arms which is also another story for another day.
Maggie, you are a refreshing source of love and devotion to not only me, but all those who ever came into contact with.
What I love about her is her gift of singing. Whenever you are down, you can count on her to sing something inspiring. She could be next Celine Dion but she hates being in the public eye .
He also encourages me in my writing. I’ve always enjoyed writing, but he is my muse. She's always asking me to share my struggles in a book.
Maggie, never in my life has anyone loved me the way you do. I feel like you were part of God’s plan to make me whole.
You are an angel that was sent down to make the world a better place and I always count myself blessed to have met you.
You have taught me so much about life. From you, I learned how to set practical goals and to work towards achieving them. You've shown me how to appreciate whatI have and never take it for granted.
Most importantly, you have taught me to always put my confidence in God which is the best gift I have received from you.
Being your husband is an honor and I would never trade that experience for anything because I love you to the moon and back.
May your 40th birthday be as our wedding day and the birthday of our first child. And may you grow in love and wisdom.
I can’t wait to see what the future holds for you. I am sure it would be bright because you make my life worthwhile.
Now, ladies and gentlemen, please raise your glasses and do me the honor of joining me in a toast to the queen of my heart, Maggie.
I am sure you learned a thing or two from that short birthday toast example. For your information, you can easily modify or adapt the above template to suit your own writing needs no matter how old your wife is.
Now, let’s analyze it so we can see how it’s all done.
Simple Steps to Writing a Sweet Birthday Toast for Your Wife
A common mistake I see most speech givers make over and over again is just writing what’s on their minds without first seeing what others have done. When this occurs, two things happen.
First, they struggle to come up with good speeches and also come under a great deal of stress and anxiety.
I know that sometimes life gets in the way and if you are throwing the birthday party for her, your birthday toast might only take a back seat.
No matter how busy life gets , you can always depend on these for help: birthday speech examples (which is why I showed you an one earlier) and video examples about birthday toasts for your spouse.
Both serve complementary roles. While the former is for reference and inspirational purposes, the latter gives you a perfect idea of what to expect in such presentations.
To make things easier for you, I am going to share with you two videos I found online. Just watch and see if you can borrow ideas from them for your own message.
Here you go:
Birthday speech examples for wife video#1
Birthday speech templates for wife video#2
Was there anything you learned from watching those clips that you think you can work into your script?
Having touched all the bases, let’s now go back and re-look at the introductory remarks in that example.
‘’ Hello and welcome everybody. I want to thank you for being here today. Before I say a few words about my beautiful wife, I would like to thank you for helping us celebrate her 40th birthday. We are so grateful that you took some time out of your busy week to join us here. Tonight wouldn't be nearly as amazing without you! ‘’
This is an introduction you can simply write right without blinking an eye, right? But you can go a step further by looking at it from a very creative angle because your opening address have to capture attention if you want your speech to be a massive hit with the party goers.
The following tips can give you an idea of how to start with a bang.
First, if you are looking forward to making an emotional birthday speech for your wife, then you can start off with any of these quotes.
- “There is only one happiness in this life, to love and be loved.” ― George Sand
- Love isn’t something you find. Love is something that finds you.” ― Loretta Young
- Where there is great love, there are always miracles.” ― W Sibert Cather
- The taste of love is sweet, when hearts like ours meet.”― Johnny Cash
- “I would rather share one lifetime with you than face all the ages of this world alone.” ― J.R.R. Tolkien
I want to use the last quote by Tolkien (“I would rather share one lifetime with you than face all the ages of this world alone.” ― J.R.R. Tolkien) to demonsrate how that can be done.
Please watch me do it.
There is this song whose lyrics go like this: In life we all need someone to lean on. I have forgotten who the singer is and you can’t blame me because I am growing old.
Now, I get it because someone said one of the signs of growing old is when you forget simple things. I am 70 years old and now I get it. No wonder you guys call me Snow White! I love the cool nickname though!
Well, today is my not my day. We are here to celebrate the birthday of my side chick of the last 50 years. She’s none other than my own precious, beautiful bride, Angela!
Second, you can start with a joke or a funny memory about your relationship or something funny that will not embarrass her if you are aiming for a funny birthday speech.
Third, if you have a good singing voice you can simply write a short poem about why you love her and set it to the beat of a well-known song and everyone will remember your wonderful performance.
Fourth, you can make your delivery very unique by sharing things you love and admire about your life. For instance, you can start like this.
Hello family and friends. Thank you so much for coming to celebrate my wife’s birthday. For those of you don’t know me, I am Ben, Martha’s wife and I am proud to be her husband of the last 20 years.
We’ve been together for that long and on her 50th birthday, I would like her and you to know why she's such a blessing to me. So, I want to....umm...share with you 5 ways she’s been a blessing in my life
Or 10 Ways She Makes Life worth living!
Or 10 Reasons Why I Love Her!
The body comes next since it’s a natural progression of the thoughts outlined in the introduction.
How then do you come up with ideas for the lines that follow the intro? That’s what the next chapter of this post is all about.
How to Write the Content for Your Birthday Toast for Your Wife
As already mentioned, the ideas presented after your introduction should follow chronologically.
For example, if you mentioned at the onset of your speech that you were going to talk about ‘’ 10 Ways Your Wife Makes Life Count‘’ then you should do that within the framework of your birthday toast for her.
Nonetheless, there are some guidelines or pointers that can steer you in the right direction when writing your birthday wishes.
First, you have to decide on the speech style you wish to use. Do you want to deliver an emotional, poetic or something narrative?
You see, no matter what kind of speech you intend writing, you should weave in a couple of stories since anecdotes are the heartbeat of great presentations.
Well, to come up with a couple of tales, you should do a little brainstorming which will help you come up with the right ideas. Answers to questions like the ones below can warm you up for the task.
- Where and when did you meet your wife?
- What drew her to your side?
- What are her beautiful qualities?
- What are some good stories you want the guests to know about?
- What makes her a loving wife?
- In what ways is she an amazing mother to your children?
- Does she have any accomplishments you want the guests to know about? Once, I wrote a birthday speech for someone I consider a friend and she said her husband had a lifetime achievement award and wanted it included in her speech and it worked for her.
Action Tip: Starting from the first question to the last or in no particular order, please write down as many memories you can remember. Afterwards, glance through them and decide which ones you want to feature in there.
A word of advice: Your birthday shouldn’t be tooo long. It should be enough just to express your feelings for your wife.
Now, let’s see…
How You Can End Your Birthday Speech Toast on A Memorable Note
There are a couple of ways you can end well and I am happy to share a few thoughts with you.
First, if you or your spouse is a Christian, you can end with a prayer or bible verses with one or more of the following.
The LORD bless you and keep you; the LORD make his face shine on you and be gracious to you; the LORD turn his face toward you and give you peace. Numbers 6:24-26
Even to your old age and gray hairs I am he, I am he who will sustain you. I have made you and I will carry you; I will sustain you and I will rescue you. Isaiah 46:4
May He give you the desire of your heart and make all your plans succeed. Psalm 20:4
Second, you can end with any of these birthday wishes from true love words.
- Happy Birthday to my lovely wife and the mother of our children. You make me happy and proud of the things we built together.
- As I sing happy birthday to you, it is you that puts the song in my heart and the music in my life. Happy Birthday my Love!
- Age is no enemy to you. Every year you become wiser and more sweet and beautiful! Happy birthday to the one year more beautiful wife!
- As you turn another page in the chapter of your life, never forget I feel so blessed to have you as my wife. Happy birthday!
- Happy birthday to a woman who is the best of everything: wife, mother, lover and friend. While we sing happy birthday to you, I want you to know that my love for you is true.
Third, you can make it light-hearted by singing a happy birthday song to your wife. You can go a step further by personalizing it with the names of her family and friends present at the event. Can we sing it together to the tune of the happy birthday song? ok...let's start.
Okay, let’s see how that can be done.
Happy birthday to you (replace you with her name)
Happy birthday to you (replace you with my sweetheart)
Happy birthday to my sweet heart
Happy birthday from your mom and dad
Happy birthday from all your 5 children
Happy birthday from your 60 grandchildren!
Did you see how I substituted a few words to make it funnier? You better practice it and sing it for your wife and she will laugh so loud until her ribs hurt.
Action Tip: Practice they say makes a man perfect. So, please start practicing it if you want to make it funny.
Fourth, if you have nothing to say at all, you can simply borrow Mark’s concluding remarks.
''Now, ladies and gentlemen, please raise your glasses and do me the honor of joining me in a toast to the queen of my heart, Maggie.''
PS:This time-sensitive note is for husbands who want to make their wives feel so proud with their birthday toast.
Let’s face it. You can buy your wife the best gift ever on her birthday and she will so happy with it. But, here’s the thing. That precious will fade sooner rather than later.
However, your words will forever live in her heart forever and spur her on to become a much better person and wife down the road.
What that means that the right words are the best gift you can gift your wife on her special day.
