Despite how cold and formal the whole “sister-in-law” title sounds, those ladies are still family nonetheless. And be that the case, they deserve every bit of love and acknowledgment that our blood relatives get—hey, maybe even a bit more kindness to compensate for the whole “you’re only my sibling through marriage” aspect of it all. To be fair, SIL relationships can definitely vary, and they can range from being your BFF to just another faintly familiar face you see during family gatherings. However, since you’re here, I have to assume that you care enough about her to give her a shoutout on the big D.O.B.

This is why we’re going to provide you with some ridiculously sweet birthday message inspo, because that blank CVS card or text message isn’t gonna write itself. This note should be warm—but not corny! Familiar—but genuine! Thoughtful—but concise! No matter if this is your partner’s sis, or your own sibling’s partner, sending some loving words her way on this special day might just take your bond to the next level. So with those stakes in mind, feel free to steal any of the lovely little messages we’ve got down below. (And tell your girl we said happy birthday!)
