Dear Alex,

I hope you and your family are well. First of all, thank you so much for the invitation to Anne's 8th birthday party. I am so thrilled to know that she is already turning 8 and growing up so fast. I wish her happy birthday and best in her life.

However, I am afraid and terribly sorry that I will not be able to attend her special day. As you know, I am attending a conference in Singapore that week, I have registered for this event almost a month ago, and luckily I was selected. This conference is on Data Analytics which is a crucial topic nowadays. I am anticipating to gain more knowledge and enhance my skills so I can apply for the Data Analyst job position in my company which is highly paid and have aspects of growth. Unfortunately, I will not be able to postpone it.

Although, I am planning to be in your town next month and I am hoping that I can meet you and your family during my trip. Please let me know when you have some time off also convey my apologies to Anne and let her know that I owe her a birthday present.

Yours faithfully
Dave
