Dear John,

Hope you and Sarah are doing well.

I am writing this letter to apologise for not been able to attend your marriage anniversary party on 20th March 2025.

Actually everything was planned to meet you and Sarah on your wedding anniversary this year. I had also thought of spending a week with you guys in London based on your availability. But unfortunately something critical came up in my office which could not be avoided.

It’s been a long time since we have met. So many things have changed in our lives. Recently I got married to my childhood best friend Julia.

I am planning to visit London with my wife in the month of December. So, it would be great if we all can meet and chill for a couple of days. My wife Julia will also get to know you guys. Do let me know if that sounds fine to you.

Hope to see you soon.
