From close friends
Happy 50th. Half a century of knowing you and I would not swap a year of it.

From the group
Happy birthday from all of us. We argued about the wording and this is what we agreed on.

What to leave out
Jokes about being old. Fifty is not a punchline, and the person will read this card more than once.
Anything about what fifty means or what they should do with the decade ahead. They know their own life.
A long list of names with no message. If ten people sign, each one should add a message, not just a name.
How the group card works
One card, one link, opens on the day.
- 01
Set the birthday date.
The card stays closed until the morning of their 50th. Nobody sees it early.
- 02
Share the link.
Send it to everyone who wants to sign. Each person writes their own message in a browser, no app needed.
- 03
They open it on the day.
Every message, every name, in one place. On their phone, whenever they want to read it.
