What to Write in a Valentine’s Day Card—Unique & Clever Messages

Collage of Valentine's Day cards

Valentine’s Day card messages are a lot like relationships. Sometimes, they’re funny. Sometimes, they’re sweet. And sometimes, they’re the kind of thing that no one else will ever understand (gotta keep things interesting, right?). 


But it can be hard to think up the right words to say in your Valentine’s Day card—after all, how can you possibly write about all of your shared memories, how much you adore them and what they mean to you in such a small space? In other words, what can you possibly say to someone who means the world to you? We can totally relate, so our advice is to write from the heart and make it personal and true to your love story. That, and take inspiration from these messages of love!
