Tips for Writing a Sister’s Marriage Leave Letter

There is no need for you to go into a lot of details regarding the wedding itself.
Just make sure you have mentioned all the dates correctly.
Even though it is an occasion to celebrate, the tone of your letter should still be formal.
Depending on your relationship with your boss or supervisor, you can invite him/her too.
Recommend someone to deal with your work while you are gone.
Leave contact information in case someone needs to reach you urgently.

Respect Sir,

I would like to inform you that my sister’s wedding date has been finalized. The marriage is on the 31st of December 2011 and as the elder brother I have to make several arrangements. Please grant me two days off, on the 28th and 29th of December 2011.

I recommend that Henry Taft be put in charge of my team while I am away. He is more than capable of dealing with our work, and in case I am needed, he also has my contact information.

I hope you will consider my request favorably,

Best regards,
Edward Cullen
