"May your plans come to fruition"

I used to say that more when leaving megameetups or going on a trip or something. It has the disadvantage that you can't say it very fast.

I also want a word/phrase that expresses sympathy but isn't "sorry".

I often say "My sympathies" when I want to express my sympathy but don't want any possibility of being understood as apologizing.

"Condolences"?

In writing, I just use “:-(”.
