The letter addresses all the bullet points but contains several grammatical errors and awkward phrasing. The coherence and cohesion are adequate, but the vocabulary could be more varied and precise.

Dear Ana,
First of
all
congratulations on your new journey of life. I
am feeling
bad
on
missing the most special moment of your life being your best friend.
I am writing to apologize about it as well as to mention the reason behind not being there. I had to visit my home just two days before your marriage after leaving from your party
i
had Sever Sickness which was not manageable here living alone. My parents took me home to take good care of me as I had to be hospitalized due to food poisoning.
This was really unfortunate
but
thankfully I am perfectly fine now . I am looking forward
to meet
you someday next month. However, I am visiting your City for a job interview. Really excited to see you. Thank you in advance for understanding and forgiving me.
Your loving friend
Sania
