Refusal to an invitation
Dear David,
I would like to thank you for the invitation to our yearly Christmas Party. The location chosen is fantastic, the menu has a lovely selection, and the guests will be well entertained with the included package.
Unfortunately, I will not be able to make it this year, due to unforeseeable personal events.
However, I have heard that all my colleagues from our department will be present, and I am sure that everybody will have a fantastic time.I hope the party will be a success and looking forward to the next event where I could be present, too.
All the best,
Mary Smith

Superb work Ecaterina,
✅ the tone is appropriate (formal, but friendly)
✅ the language structures you have used are appropriate
✅ you are inviting further collaboration in the future
Here are a few suggestions:
> I would like to thank you for the invitation to our yearly Christmas Party. > should this be ‘your’?
>The location chosen is fantastic, ….. word order: The chosen location is fantastic, or simply: The location is fantastic,
> I hope the party will be a success and looking forward to the next event where I could be present, too. No need for the comma here: I hope the party will be a success and looking forward to the next event where I could be present too.
Let me know if you have any questions!
Well done 👍
