Birthday Letter Banners for Every Milestone
Birthdays come once a year, and a custom letter banner makes each one feel like the event it should be. Our birthday banners are laser cut from glitter or matte cardstock, then pre-strung on white twine so they're ready to hang the moment they arrive. Whether you're decorating for a surprise party, a milestone celebration, or a casual backyard gathering, the right banner ties the whole scene together.
From "Happy Birthday" classics to witty milestone sayings, you can customize every word, choose from multiple font styles, and pick colors that match the party's vibe. Script fonts add elegance for formal dinners, while bold block letters bring energy to lively celebrations. Every banner is made to order with your exact text, so it's uniquely theirs.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which font style should I choose for a birthday banner?
It depends on the mood you're going for. Script and Fancy fonts work beautifully for elegant milestone celebrations like 50th or 60th birthdays. Modern and Slab Serif fonts are bold and easy to read from across a room, making them ideal for large parties. Rounded fonts have a playful feel that works great for casual celebrations. Browse the font previews on the product page to see which one fits your event.
What banner size works best for my venue?
For home parties and smaller rooms, 7-inch letters strike a nice balance between visibility and space. For larger venues like restaurants, event spaces, or outdoor areas, 9-inch letters make a bigger impact and read clearly in photos from a distance. Measure your hanging area and consider how many letters are in your phrase to make sure the banner fits comfortably.
Can I combine a name banner with a birthday phrase?
Yes. Many customers order two banners — one with the person's name and one with a phrase like "Happy Birthday" or "Cheers to 40 Years" — and hang them on separate lines for a layered look. You can also put everything on one banner. Both approaches work well, so it comes down to your wall space and how you want to arrange the display.
