Dear Ben,
I hope you’re well. I’m writing to invite you to a party I’ll be having next Friday, December 17th.
I’m not sure if you’ve heard the news, but I proposed to my girlfriend Sally last week. This is a very exciting time in our lives, and we’d like to formally celebrate the engagement with our family and friends. Not only will it be a fun gathering, but we’ll all be able to catch up and spend some time together.
Since the guest list is quite extensive, we’ve decided to have the party at “Le Chalet” restaurant in Pittsboro. If you’ll be coming from your city, though, it would be best to take Highway South for 30 miles, and then take the “Steeltown 19A” exit. The restaurant is about 100 feet from the exit on the left-hand side.
Given the fact that the weather forecast is calling for a snowstorm next Friday, we’ve blocked off a few rooms at the hotel next to the restaurant. Having said that, I would be happy to pay for your room, since you’d be traveling quite a bit in order to celebrate with us.
I hope you’ll be able to join us for the festivities!
Sincerely,
Michael
