Frequently asked questions

What should I write in a Best Wishes Alternative card?

Open with something specific to the recipient — a name, a date, the reason today matters — then add one wish that wouldn't fit any other card, and close warmly. The 32 examples above show different registers; pick the one closest to how you'd actually talk to this person, then change one phrase so it sounds like you wrote it.

How long should a Best Wishes Alternative message be?

Three to five sentences is the sweet spot for cards. That's enough room to say something true without crowding the page. For a text or social post, one or two lines is plenty. The longer wishes on this page give you a frame; the shorter ones work as-is.

Can I personalise these Best Wishes Alternative with the recipient's name?

Yes — that's the recommended way to use them. Most wishes here are written generically on purpose so you can replace one phrase with a specific name, date, place, or memory. Our AI generator will also rewrite a chosen wish around personal details you provide.
