50 Congratulations Wishes & Quotes for Cards: Celebrating Achievements – With a Handwritten 'Woohoo' on a Cheerful Yellow and White Card, Accompanied by Flowers Nearby.

Major life events merit congratulations and encouragement. Your expression of shared happiness adds to the enjoyment of a special moment.

  • Match your message to the occasion and the personality of the person being congratulated. Offering congrats with a casual vibe is a great fit for a high school graduate but less appropriate for a business accomplishment.
  • Give some thought as to the best format for your congratulations. Texts, emails, and a congratulations card all have their place, but they’re not all suited to every occasion or person. Take the time to send your low-tech friend a hard copy via snail mail, and you’ll make their day!
  • Add a specific comment that reflects your connection to the person to amp up the impact, as in “I knew you could do it, roomie!” 

Your words of congratulations contribute to the spirit of the occasion and remind the one receiving your text, email, or card that their life event is being celebrated by someone who cares about them. Right now. For this.
