Finding the perfect 19th birthday wish can be a tricky one. It’s an odd turning point in every teenager’s life where they’re not a kid anymore, but they haven’t quite hit their full adult stage. They are most likely transitioning from a life of chilling with their friends and attending house parties to getting a taste of the real world and the early beginnings of establishing a work/life balance. Here’s your chance to wish them a happy 19th birthday and dedicate a few words to celebrate them during this transformative point in their lives. 

Let’s get you warmed up with some lovely short and sweet wishes.

  2. Sending our best wishes to you on your 19th birthday! Last year’s party was a blast and we hope that you have a special one this year too. 
  3. Congratulations on reaching 19! Here’s one last chance for you to experience all the joy of living life as a nonchalant teenager with limited culpability. 
  4. I wish you a fabulous 19th birthday and a truly special time rounding off the final year of your second decade. Be proud of all the accomplishments and dreams you’ve achieved.
  5. Enjoy all the happiness of being a 19-year-old as you swerve into the final lap of your teens. Stay blessed, stay driven and keep being the awesome person you are.

  1. Happy 19th birthday pal. You’ve reached that weird point in life where you’re old enough to get tried in court as an adult, but still a couple of years away from being allowed to legally drink. With that said, enjoy all the innocent excitement teenage life has to offer without the worry of hangovers and short-term memory loss. 
  2. Sending you best wishes on your 19th birthday. Enjoy your last teenage year, when a lack of sleep seems to have little to no impact on your alertness and behavior. Once you hit your twenties, you’ll be wishing you made the most of those lazy Sunday lie-ins without a worry in mind. 
  3. Look who’s turning 19! Some would say that approaching their twenties makes them more mature and motivated to chase their dreams. That’s somewhat true for you, well the second part at least, but in your case the dreams mainly consist of loud music, booze-fueled extravaganzas, and being the ultimate party animal for as long as possible.
  4. Say goodbye to your youth and hello to your last teenage year! Make sure you have a birthday filled with pure delight and a wonderful year of making as many questionable life choices as possible. You might as well make it interesting and sign out of your teenage years with a bang!
  5. Enjoy your 19th birthday celebration. They say the best birthday gifts in life are free. If only someone had told me that earlier, I would have refunded your present and saved myself a few bucks. The world is becoming an expensive place, which you’ll quickly learn more about as you draw closer to the end of your carefree teens.

Cheeky 19th Birthday Wishes

  1. One year old, one year wiser they say. Well, whoever said that clearly wasn’t talking about you. In your short time on this beautiful planet, you gave Earth nineteen years of conundrums that the universe itself had trouble working out. I hope for your sake and everyone else’s that your intelligence grows exponentially in the near future. 
  2. Happy 19th birthday to someone who just can’t come to terms with letting go of teenage life. Some might call you a young adult, but as I’m sure your loved ones would agree, you’re more like a child trapped in an adult’s body. Watching you transition into a grown person with responsibilities will definitely make for interesting viewing. I can’t wait!
  3. Sending you happy 19th birthday wishes from afar. I ran out of birthday gift ideas to send in the mail, so I sent you an IOU that you can redeem when we both become rich, which…judging by your life choices, might take a while.
  4. Happy 19th birthday! I pray for you to stay blessed and experience more joy and happiness in your adult years than you did in your wonderful young years…maybe with less risky behavior though. You’re already pretty clumsy, and getting older only increases your chances of injury and in turn, the frequency of you complaining about self-inflicted pain.

Cherish every sweet moment you have with your loved ones while you still have free time and fewer responsibilities. The older you get, the more you’ll realize that quality time spent with your closest ones is better than even the best birthday gifts.

  4. Birthdays are a time to celebrate how far you’ve come in the game of life, and I’d say you’ve had a pretty immense voyage from a kid to a young adult. You’re a smart, kind and honest person who wears their heart on their sleeve and you should be proud of the lovely human that you’ve become in a short 19 years.
  5. Have a beautiful day as you step into this last year of the non-stop party life and start buckling down for your remaining adult years. We wish you a fantastic 19th birthday celebration and an amazing future ahead. Follow your dreams to wherever they may take you and make us all proud as you have done throughout your whole life.
