A wedding congratulations letter is written to convey your best wishes to an individual on his/her marriage or wedding in his/her family. The letter can be used to congratulate the individual after the event is complete since you could not be present during the occasion personally or in anticipation of the same after receipt of an invite to attend the wedding.
This congratulation letter is written to someone who recently got married, and you could not attend due to some reason. As the letter is a medium of conveying best wishes, it should be written well, and the reader should feel happy after reading it. It should be very précis and to the point. Letters are written for congratulating friends on their marriage because letters are more personalised than short text messages and phone call. So always remember to congratulate your friends by writing short and sweet letters.

Dear Bhumit,
I received the invite for your wedding through e-mail during my leave period and thank you for the same. It is with great pleasure that I am writing this letter to convey my heartfelt congratulations to you on your marriage to Ms. Susan on 21 September 2013 May you have a wonderful married life and remain soul-mates forever.
Although I tried my best to attend the wedding since you are one of my oldest teammates, I could not make it due to certain urgent family requirements.
I missed the occasion, but my good wishes will always be with you. I will call on you with my wife to give our token of love and blessings after your return from your romantic honeymoon trip.
Here is wishing you once again the very best for a happy married life. God bless.
