Birthdays are the perfect time to RECOGNIZE, APPRECIATE, and APPLAUD the strong women in your life. I personally love celebrating the successes of those around me! However, due to social distancing, gathering together is a challenge. No fear though! This article will give you tons of virtual birthday celebration ideas. My family’s been using Google Duo to spend time together and stay connected, that way we don’t miss any special moments.
Don’t let the pandemic steal a birthday from you! It didn’t for me. Instead, I got creative and hosted a virtual birthday celebration with my loved ones. Here are a few ways to make the birthday girl feel special and loved by throwing her a virtual birthday celebration fit for a Queen!
Set A Dress Code
I know we all miss getting dressed up and my dresses are just screaming to be worn every time I open my closet and choose a tee-shirt instead of them. Plus, there’s something about a dress and pair of heels that makes me feel infinitely more confident. Encourage the guests and birthday girl to break out their favorite fits and glam up! You could even mail the birthday girl a crown to top off her look and make her feel like the QUEEN she is.
While the whole squad is dressed up, be sure and take photos of yourselves to make a memorable collage. You can also all pose onscreen and take a group screenshot with everyone. Either way, keep in mind you’re making memories!
Raise A Virtual Birthday Celebration Toast
Secretly ask all the guests to prepare a few words to say about the birthday girl. They could share favorite memories, inspirational stories, toast to her successes, or just thank her for being in their life. Basically, remind her what an impact she’s had and just how loved she is. Of course, you can’t toast to her accomplishments without a drink. Use an alcohol delivery service to have a bottle of Champagne dropped off right to her door before the party starts.
Share A Birthday Video
Another special way to share memories and birthday messages is by making a video! Ask friends to send in short clips of them wishing her a happy birthday and stitch them together. You can also include videos of memories together and use her favorite song as background music, whatever will make her smile! Show the video virtually at the party, but be sure to send her a copy as well, she’ll definitely want to watch it again!
Make A Donation In Her Name
Whether she has a cause that’s close to her heart, or she’s just a giving person, making a donation in her name is sure to be appreciated. You can either have friends make individual donations or you can all contribute to one gift. Then, at the party, reveal the amount and cause you’re all supporting because she inspired you. You could even name a star after her! The money raised is distributed to seven incredible charities that are making a difference!
Now go forth and celebrate all the EXTRAORDINARY women in your life!
