  • May your Christmas be merry and your gifts underwear-free!

  • Blessed to have a friend like you this Christmas and all year-round.

Holiday Greetings for Co-Workers

It's always great when you can spread the holiday cheer with colleagues. Sending a special greeting will let them know how much you appreciate their contribution to the work environment.

  • Wishing you and yours many blessings in the coming year.

  • Never forget the first rule of office holiday parties: You do not talk about what happens at holiday office parties.

  • You make the hours at work seem less... tasking.

That last one is great for a co-worker who enjoys a good pun. If you work in finance, switching the word back to its common cliche of "seem less taxing" is equally as punny.

Christmas Blessing for Religious Friends

Do you have a friend or family member who would appreciate a religious-themed holiday greeting? You could always opt to add a Christmas Bible verse to your card or use one of these greetings on your holiday cards to religious loved ones:

  • Merry Christmas from our family to yours, may the Lord fill your heart with joy this holiday season.

  • May the Lord bless you and your family this Christmas season.

  • I don't need a gift this year because God gave me you!

Season’s Greetings for Significant Others

Tell your significant other how much you love them with a romantic card with a message meant only for them. Pair your Christmas greeting with a meaningful photo of the two of you.

Check out these seasonal greetings for your partner for inspiration:

  • Here's to a very, merry Christmas together!

  • All I want for Christmas is you.

  • Your love is the only gift I need this Christmas.
