Can anyone help me? What does this symbol stand for?

Thank you very much. I have a cake to do for an asian party. For some reason they used this symbol on the invite. But I am trying to find symbols to put on the cake itself. Do you know if it is a custom to put "Happy Birthday" in Chinese symbols. Thsi is my first Chinese customer and I want they to be very happy.

If it is a birthday party, it is ok to put "Happy Birthday" in Chinese on the cake. But it has to look like Chinese. There are two Chinese scripts, one is the simplified script (mainly used in Mainland China), the other is the traditional script (mainly used in Taiwan, Hong Kong). So pick a script more suitable for your customer. ->

生日快乐 (simplified script)

生日快樂 (traditional script) (use this if you are not sure which to use)
