Patti and Tim Kaminski at the Grand Wine & Food Affair’s Sip & Stroll at Imperial.
Summer is finally here! I must say at my house we are all breathing a collective sigh of relief. We are all ready for a more relaxed, laid back pace – if only for a while.
While we enjoy a respite from our hectic schedule, for many families, June is an incredibly busy month because of a long-standing tradition: weddings. So many brides choose a date in June as their wedding date, and in this issue, we take a look at some Fort Bend weddings, some beautiful brides and the go-to guru for weddings and special events in the Bend: Lucas Chavez of LC Floral Designs. I’ve known Lucas for many years, and I can absolutely tell when I walk into an event if he has had a hand in the décor. His unique sense of style and design makes everything simply beautiful, and as Lucas says, “over-the-top glamorous.”
In June, we also celebrate dads and grads. If you’re looking for an extra special gift to celebrate, we have some ideas on page 40 with our Things We Love for Dads and Grads. And, all of the gifts are available right here in Fort Bend.
I recently attended an event that so impressed me that I felt compelled to feature it in absolutely! Brazos. I, along with over 700 guests, joined Dee Koch for the Annual Investment in Youth Luncheon. This amazing program, Youth In Philanthropy (YIP), is teaching the next generation of Fort Bend residents the importance of community and of giving back, while awarding $90,000 in scholarships to Fort Bend students. There are many ways to support YIP, and I encourage you to read about this shining star of success in our community on page 18.
To all of our Brazos dads, we wish you a Happy Father’s Day, and to all of our Brazos grads, we congratulate you on your achievements.
Absolutely! yours,
Patti Parish-Kaminski
