邀请信 Invitation Letter
邀请信是写信人对收信人的一种盛情邀约。邀请信分为正式邀请信和非正式邀请信。非正式邀请用词比较随便；正式邀请信则是向收信人发出正式邀请，用语和格式均比较规范、严谨。
邀请信通常包括以下几个方面的内容：发出邀请；说明邀请对方做什么事；说明活动时间和地点；表达期待或感谢之情。
写作“三步走”：
说明邀请目的—>说明活动安排—>期待尽早回复
Tips:
信中要说明关于活动的详细信息，包括活动时间、地点、内容，有时需要说明参加活动的人员。语气要热情真挚，但不要强人所难。
Directions:

Dear Anne,
I wonder if there is any chance for your to come to my 23rd birthday party at my house on this Saturday night, May the 8th. It would be my pleasure to share the important moments with you.

There are also arrangements for dancing and cake-cutting, which I am sure you will thoroughly enjoy.
