Let me begin by saying Congratulations! I am so genuinely and sincerely so happy that you have Malik have found each other. May Allah always bless you two. I have waited some time to send you this email, because I did not want to to cause any sort of "drama" or cast even the slightest shadow on one of the happiest day(s) of your life.
However, I feel that out of respect for our friendship, I need to tell you that I am very sadden and deeply hurt that I was not invited to your wedding reception in Atlanta.

While,it maybe hard to believe I really do not have any ill will towards you just a lot sadness, hurt and disappointment in regards to this whole situation.
