Hi Guys, can some advise me on how to format HTML within a posted email using MIME lite?

Essentially I am passing form details from one page to a verify email. On this email I want to format some basic HTML. I want to pass form variables from the email and submit them back onto my site. A basic verification without a date base.

The P1 tags are set up in my css

here is my code

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use diagnostics;
use CGI qw(:standard);
use MIME::Lite;
use CGI::Carp 'fatalsToBrowser';
    $CGI::POST_MAX=1024 * 100;  # max 100K posts
    
    
my $organisers_name= param('organisers_name');
my $organisers_address= param('organisers_address');
my $organisers_homeN= param('organisers_homeN');
my $organisers_mobile= param('organisers_mobile');
my $organisers_email= param('organisers_email');
my $prefered_contact= param('prefered_contact');
my $brides_name= param('brides_name');
my $brides_number= param('brides_number');
my $wedding_date= param('wedding_date');
my $bride_organiser= param('bride_organiser');
my $suprise= param('suprise');

my $msg = MIME::Lite->new(
         To      =>$organisers_email,
         Subject =>'Verify3',
         Type    =>'multipart/related'
    );
   $msg->attach(
        Type => 'text/html',
        Data => '<BODY>
                        <FORM METHOD="post" ACTION="bookings3.cgi" enc
