For the big milestone years
Look at you, at [age], and still as radiant as the first moment that I met you.
Every day with you deserves a celebration, but reaching [age] years earthside warrants a little extra love.
[Age] years alive, and I thank the stars every day I've gotten to spend the last [X] by your side.
I'm so glad I get to see this special year with you. Hoping for endless more.
Where does the time go? I'm so proud of the person you've become, and I'm so lucky I get to live this life alongside you.
The big [age] has finally arrived! What you've achieved, and will continue to achieve, in this life inspires me every day.
Well would you look at that? [name @ age]. I'm overjoyed that I get to take on this new chapter with you.
I wish someone could time travel and tell the young me when I first fell for you that I'd be celebrating your [age] years on this earth. Life would've felt a lot lighter.
Everyone else can have their 13.8 billion-year-old universe. My universe is [age] today.
I thank the world that we get to count up the years together.
I may not have been around for all [age] years, but I don't plan on leaving you alone anytime soon.
You're a force of nature, and I'm elated that we get these mile markers to acknowledge just that.

For short and sweet wishes
365 more days with you <3. Can't wait for 'em all.
National [wife's name] Day is my favorite one of the year.
To the sweetest part of my life, happy birthday.
What do you gift the sun? Still trying to figure that out. I love you.
I love life with you in it. To a million more birthdays together.
You're the greatest part of every day, and brightest part of this life. Don't ever stop shining.
You are my wildest dream. So glad I get to frolic through life with you.
Thankful that we're locked in fiveever.
Every day with you feels like magic. Happiest of birthdays.
Another trip around the sun? Probably explains how you got even hotter. Happy birthday.
For a lovey-dovey message
Wine, whiskey, antiques, you. All just better with time. Happy birthday, babe.
My world. My moon. My stars. My everything. Happy birthday to you, my one true love.
I love any day that's dedicated my most beloved—which, yes, is also every day. But we'll make today extra special.
Hoping I can make your day as wonderful as you make my life with you in it. Happy birthday, sweetheart.
How do you get more and more beautiful with each passing moment, day, and year? We need to know! It's for science!
Every morning that I wake up next to you is deserving of birthday-level jubilation, honestly.
Somehow you still manage to wow me constantly, and I can't wait for many more years of pure astonishment.
Something went right in the universe when it brought our spirits together. So grateful it saw fit for us to be partners. I'm the luckiest of all.
I still get butterflies I got the first time that I laid eyes on you. But somehow, the flutters are bigger and stronger. Happy birthday, I love you to the galaxy and beyond.
Thank you for making me seem ten times cooler than I am.
You're truly the world's eighth wonder. What did I do to deserve such a treasure?
It's hard to understand how an angel like yourself walks and exists among the rest of us mere mortals, but I sure am glad that you do.
It gets tough to imagine that I could love you any more than I already do, but every day I disprove that theory.
You are the sun and I am the earth—my world will always revolve around you.
I must've been a true do-gooder in my past life to get you in this one.
I’m not me without you.
I love getting to know you more each day.
I don’t even want to imagine a life without you.
Thank you for being a true partner in every sense of the word.
The good times never end with you, and I never want them to.
Thanks for validating my decision to put a ring on it every day.
For a funny birthday note
Gift spoiler: Having me in your life is the best present you could ask for!
Can't wait to continue to wrinkle with ya.
[Redacted] years ago, you made your grand debut, and truly the world hasn't been the same since. For better and for worse.
Happy birthday! For the next 24 hours I am nothing more than your humble servant. (AKA just like the other 364 days).
Happy birthday, my love. I promise I won't remind you how old you're getting (until the next time that you get on my nerves).
Party like you're 21 today, babe. Even if we both know you're far from it.
Can't wait to soak in the wisdom that's sure to come with your new age!
I've always loved an older woman.
Your birthday is basically my second birthday. Those are the marriage rules.
So. Any plans today?
Writing this super big...you know, for the aging eyesight and all.
If this life's really a simulation, I owe a helluva lot to the player who paired me with you.
