Overall Feedback

The letter effectively addresses the task with a personal and engaging tone, but the informal language and structure affect its semi-formal requirement. Grammar and vocabulary are varied but could be more precise, and the letter lacks a clear beginning and signature.

Emma, sweetheart! A certain bird told me about the freshest news in town! You wound me, I

thought

I would be the first to know about your engagement. Imagine my surprise when I found out about it from Instagram, sheesh... 7 years and a picture is the fruit of my

labor

? I'm just kidding.

Congratulations, baby! I had an inkling about this when Lee was super uptight and jittery during your graduation party. I wanted to ask him about it

but

never really was my place to ask for it, right? When you first introduced him to me, I saw you too being super giggly and nasty with each other

you

thought

I wouldn't see the glances you steal from each other? Right, outright nasty! Tone it down! Then again, you too are really meant for each other, you

mold

to the shape of another, fitting together like yin and yang. Pretty poetic, I

think

Do inform me if you're about to make plans regarding the wedding, my clients been grilling me to hell and back these past few months, not sure if it's fortunate or unfortunate

; but you

get the gist of it, I'm pretty busy lately!

But of course, for my

bestfriend

; my one and only, I

think

I can clear up an indefinite amount of time to clear, yeah? I

wanna

help you out too if you'll allow me, sweetie! Just hit me up

and

I'll try to contact you as soon as possible

Once again, congratulations Emma, prosperity and love to you and Lee.
