Help writing invitation letter to Ambassador

Hello. I'm writing from Japan.
I have to send an invitation letter to some Ambassadors to Japan.
I know I have to use "Your Excellency" or "Excellency" as Salutation, but should I repeat Excellency all the time in my main text in the letter?
For example, "It is our honor to invite Your Excellency to *** exhibition..."
instead of "It is our honor to invite you to *** exhibition...".

I hope you see what I mean.
Thank you for your attention and reply in advance.

Hi Guest, I would just use Ambassador Jones or whatever his or her name is, for both the salutation and body of the letter. I understand "Your Excellency" is sometimes used for ambassadors. It sounds too regal for my tastes.

  • What about, "We are honored to have you as our guest at *** exhibition"?
