You do not need to write your address.

Begin your letter as follows: Dear Sir/Madam,

Answer:

Dear Shaan,

I am sorry I haven’t written for so long. My work keeps me so busy, that I never have a minute to myself. I am writing to invite you to my wedding.

Since you have never met my future wife, you must have a million questions running through your mind right now. I hope I can tell you enough to put your mind at ease until we meet. Five months ago I decided to take a cruise to Bahamas, to get away for a little while. And on that cruise Fait arraigned for me to meet my future wife, Elena. She is the most wonderful, loving person you could ever imagine and we are very happy together.

The wedding will take place at my parents’ mansion. The date is October 17, at 7 o’clock. I am so looking forward to introducing you to Elena, and he can’t wait to meet you too. I told him all about you and our friendship.

With love,

Amy.
