Oct 23, 2018 · Best of luck with your exams; All the best for the future; etc. So if you knew someone was having a job interview you might say "Best of luck for tomorrow!" but if you said "All the best" it would sound more like you were wishing them well for a long time - so you might say it if you didn't know when (or if) you were going to see them again.
Nov 28, 2010 · When the best wishes are for a longer or indefinite period, we tend to say "in": I wish you all the best in your future endeavors. When the wish is for some specific thing (as in your example), I think we say "with" at least as often, although "in" works well, too.
Sep 15, 2010 · The above are all fine, if you do use "same", though, it wouldn't be just that word, but a set phrase "Same to you!"
Dec 8, 2015 · "All my best" sounds more personal than "All the best". Since you are not speaking directly to the couple, there is no reason to, necessarily, include the spouse whom you've never met and are not likely to meet anytime soon. So, "All my best to your cousin." is fine. Though there is nothing wrong with "All my best to your cousin and his bride."
Jan 8, 2014 · If we (speaking in 2016) mean "All the best for 2017", we need to say "All the best for next year" (no article). (Caveat - there may be some variety of English where the article would be used in "for next year" (for the coming year), but I've never come across it.)
Nov 2, 2011 · According to the Oxford English Dictionary regards as a valediction literally means “best wishes,” therefore writing “best regards” is redundant. Avoid using it altogether. “Warm regards” and “Kind regards” were both created specifically to avoid this misusage.
Jan 18, 2010 · Either way, all the best to you, too … or, all the best to you as well. The first one seems more natural.
Apr 26, 2015 · So, of all the possible worlds, this was the best one. All those improvements you can imagine? Either not possible, or not improvements. God sits there tweaking dials until the world is most excellent. Sorry about the bad bits, you can't get the parts these days, no chance. Our world is "the best of all possible worlds".

Aug 14, 2012 · Best wishes to you is correct. I've never heard a native English speaker say "best wishes for you", and there are no examples of "best wishes for you" in the British National Corpus. "Best wishes for 2011" or "best wishes for the new year" are fine. For more examples, see Google or the British National Corpus.
