I don't like it; the way you've written it you're apologizing for their invitation.
Please accept our apologizies and our thanks for your kind invitation...
(I'd also lose the "we find" right at the beginning.)

Yes, it's okay to write it the way you've written it.
Holy crap, nobody's answered a question this simple in twenty-five minutes? Geeze, you must just be going insane!

Please accept our thanks for your invitation and our apologies for the delay in answering.
(However do look at your original post as I have made another suggestion for your original letter.)
