TEXANS WERE READY to party Mardi in 2022. The Fertitta family’s 25th annual San Luis Salute was its most-attended ever, with 2,000 tickets purchased within just a couple hours — and that was before the announcement that Maroon 5 would be giving a private, hour-long performance at the gala.


The San Luis Salute kicked off with a pre-party on the pier where Tilman Feritta’s new superyacht is docked. Black-tie-clad VIPs sipped Veuve and Adam Levine’s tequila, Calirosa.

Under a chandelier-bedecked tent before making their way to the Galveston Island Convention Center for the main event.

The evening was French-kissed, with a “Cabaret in Paris” theme carried out by Richard Flowers and the Events Co.: Cocktail hour took place among an arrangement made to look like a Parisian street café, all set to a soundtrack of “La Vie en Rose.” And dinner — filet mignon au poivre, gruyere mashed potatoes — was preceded by a mouthwatering charcuterie spread, of course.

Then came the true crowd-pleaser: Maroon 5 took the stage for a full hour, cranking out hit after hit as revelers packed the dance floor.

Spotted at the Salute: Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick, Neil and Maria Bush, UH’s Renu Khator, Dancie Ware, Frances Moody Buzbee and the whole Fertitta fam.

Med Spa Owner

As a small business owner, I get to wear many hats. I became an Aesthetician to gain more knowledge about the services my business was going to provide, thinking that I will only focus on the administrative side of the business. Soon I became the business administrator and the lead Aesthetician. Currently, I am hands-on with our social media and marketing promotions, in addition to my regular facial clients. As time has passed, I realized I needed it to ramp up my services and technology to keep up with our competitors and now we offer a wide variety of Medical Spa services such as injectables and laser treatments.
