Birthday toasts and speeches

Birthday toasts are a great way to help friends or family celebrate the passing of another year.

Special occasions -- such as an 80th or 90th birthday -- call for celebrations of wisdom and maturity. You'll want to express thoughts that are classic, in good taste and heartfelt.

There is more latitude for what you can say to those who are celebrating their middle ages. Check out the collection of sayings that celebrate those glorious middle ages with a sense of humor. 

After a person turns 30 or older, aging jokes are commonplace. Just be sure the humorous stories don't hurt anyone's feelings.

There are traditional flowers and gemstones that match specific ages so you might want to refer to a birthday month chart as you develop your toast.
