Dear Justin Holloway,
I regret to inform you that I will not be able to attend the annual Matt Corporation’s Christmas dinner. While accepting the invitation, I failed to realize that John’s play is also scheduled at the same night. My presence is required at his play.
I deeply regret not attending the party as it is always a pleasure to be there. I hope I can attend it next year. I highly appreciate your invitation and hope that you will accept my apology.
Sincerely,
Seve
