Dear Mr. Jenkins,

I am writing the letter to inform you that I require some time off from office to attend the destination wedding of my younger brother.

This wedding is very important to me and my family is looking forward to see me after seven years at our family event.

This will be a very good opportunity to meet my family and friends after ages. The event is on 18th July to 21st July, in total I would need four days leave from office. I have already submitted my tasks prior to date. Until I am unavailable, Harry will be taking care of my work on behalf of me. After I returned I will work extra hours from my shift to complete pending work if there is any.

I want to create some cherishable moments with my love ones. So I would really appreciate if you allow me one day off.

Sincerely,

Lily.
