Dearest Shirley,

Harry and I are getting married!

Final arrangements have not yet been made but this should take place around the end of June.
I so much hope you will be able to come.

The wedding is going to be here at my parents' house and should be on a grand scale. My mother is doing the organizing and she wants it to be the proudest day of her life! Weather permitting, we will have an outdoor reception. We are all full of excitement and anticipation.

My parents will send you a formal invitation later on, but I wanted to let you know myself.

All my love,

Audrey
