The text above is an invitation letter. This kind of letter serves the purpose of inviting a guest to a party, an event or a celebration while conveying more information than a traditional invitation card.

It serves two purposes; (1) to invite the individual to the event and (2) to ensure that the person receiving the letter is going to attend.

There are two tenses used within the invitation letter, the present and the future. The present tense conveys information about the event and the future tense ensures the guest is going to attend.
