You can show your nipples. Well, Kim is selling the nipple bra, so. I mean, I drive people nuts. The people who work with me, they want a work-life balance. But if you're going into my business, you have to know that we answer the phone at midnight.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
Oh, and the notes I get. Yes. I get a lot. So we have a file of just what's to come. But my mom has no idea. No idea.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
I can't believe we haven't had a meeting yet.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
And they say, don't worry. Right. And I hear people who recommend me, now don't worry because she'll do it. She won't call you or anything and you won't think she's listening to anything you say. But when you get there, it's better. It's better than what you think.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
i know exactly when we get the call what the expectations like i know the the pattern right so mom calls way ahead likes invitations out very early yes once you get those out she relaxes i was going to say she spirals until they're out yes yes like you know yeah um loves a great theme loves the beauty I always want to use her dishes. No, don't use my dishes. Especially for Christmas.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
If you guys could see these cabinets, it's better than sex for me. If I open up the cabinet doors... And there's Easter, Mother's Day, Christmas, you know, celebration. It's a dream. It's exactly what you want to have, but it never works out that way. It worked out in her dish closet. And like she'll literally, when I come over, she'll go, I have to show you something. And it's like that meme.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
you guys all want to have that memory and that feeling and you guys continue to go back to every party. Oh, when we were young, my mother did this and oh, this is how she set a table. I mean, these were good memories for you. And that's why all of you, There's not just one. You all celebrate everything. Which for me is a great thing. But each one
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
we've gotten lucky with the memories that it you know it sparks anyways your mother you know she's extremely involved she likes to know everything in a timely manner so i try to be the best on my game yes i'm a little behind one event now i'm scared to see her tomorrow okay um courtney gentle soul now yes but she's but more of a last minute planner right Yes.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
Like we know about it, but we don't get involved. You know, it's a much more methodical. We know. But she has really good ideas, too. So we listen and something she likes to do on her own. So we're not around as much. But very kind. Travis is just very, thank you. Thank you. You know that. She loves when all you guys come over and tell you, tell her what you think.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
Like for Christmas things, which is great. Because then I look at the conversation while you guys are having the conversation.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
But she's great because she wants to make everybody happy too. But I don't work with Courtney as much as the rest of the family. Kim, very organized. Things come randomly. Yes. Like, we do these big presentations and, you know, yes, no, very quick, precise, and trusting. She'll trust us. But if she does not like something, we know it. Yes. We do. And it's okay.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
She has such an aesthetic that she wants to keep everything in, which is great for me to know. So I know we do not present anything... very, very colorful, except the kid stuff, which he lets go.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
We're not there yet. That was, that was so good. That was amazing. So Chloe organized pictures uh decks like there is no guessing which which for us is the best yeah because i'm always like is this annoying because of my mic i know i'm a micromanager for us it's nice to have a direction when you call for parties we feel believe it or not relaxed because we know we have a task
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
But if you don't like something, we know it. Yes. There is no, yeah, there's no guessing.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
Right, very. Yes. But also different than your sisters, except for Kendall, you're there when we're setting up.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
Yeah. So there's guidance there and questions like, what is that? Did we order that? Did we? Well, just let's just wait until.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
Courtney will come right up and tell us, you know. Yeah. But she, you know, she watches. And then Rob. Oh, God. I only see him at dreams parties. Right. But let me tell you, when he shows up, he goes to every vendor and thanks them. Thank you for being here. Thank you for doing this. So what a pleasure. He is, you know, and it's always like better than what he thought because you're planning.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
Grateful and happy. It's always just huggable. He is. Yes. And I always hug him. He is. Kenny Kendall. We just did Christmas Eve at her house.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
No. You would have been very proud of her. She did.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
I was like, wow. She kept it real. She kept it like her home. She wanted it to be her home. Great taste.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
Yes. Very iconic Ralph. All I have to do is see a home and then I know. I hadn't seen her new couch and all that.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
I have, you know, if you're planning and doing things that are so intimate. Mm hmm. That's where the connection comes in. It's not even- But not everyone's like that. No. Right. So I kind of have to be a chameleon for some because I would never let them know how I really feel.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
Really good. But she has comments. She'll come in and out, in and out. So Kendall was a pleasure. Again, will tell me what she wants. I did a few surprises that she was very happy with. And if she wasn't, I would have taken it away right away. But her house looked beautiful.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
He just smiles. He's like everyone's little love.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
He is, yeah. And Kylie. Kylie. She, again, before she got so busy...
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
definitely sends me pinterest and inspiration and very detailed she does very large events and now is kind of backing off a bit and doing smaller but for stormy worlds right and then when air came these are big chunky events yes and she has a vision like she can see it you know a lot of people can't see it ahead of time but she sees it and um but then when she's at the party there's
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
Each country, truly, because the entertainment world has become, I mean, entertaining parties, has become such a big thing, especially in weddings. I'm on Instagram. I'm writing down, ooh, that was pretty. Who is that person? And then when we go, we have our teams. And because we go to Europe so much and different places. Now, if we go to new places, I was just in San Miguel de Allende earlier.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
Oh, this little town, Mexico. But we had to really research. And I always love to bring my photographer. Right. But, boy, I'll tell you, there's some talent in every country. And they reach out to me, too, which is so lovely. So I find a lot of that. But when you do out-of-town destination, my son's getting married in March. And I said, where's Steve? Staying in LA, buddy.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
You cannot depend on that because everybody goes. That's crazy to me. It's crazy. And people show up. I mean, I just did one in Cabo. It was almost 400 people. In Cabo. 400 people? And they all go. Oh, no. That's not okay for me. But when you do destination, remember, it's five parties.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
You have a welcome, rehearsal dinner, Saturday wedding, Sunday brunch, and then there's usually a family dinner that's in there because they'll come. That's too much for me. And guests get taking care of the guests because they're a little more insecure when they're out of town. So people don't realize how much goes into it. Yeah, that's crazy.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
yes and you'll love it because she wasn't bringing anybody what do you mean she said oh they'll take care of us there okay right they're gonna take care of us and and i i let it go because like okay and then i called her i said kim who's taking care of your mother Who is making sure the rooms are ready? They don't know what you want. They don't know. But also, we had a DJ. We had this.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
Who's doing all that? She goes, yeah, let me think about it about maybe six minutes later.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
So, you know, people don't realize. They don't know you. We know what each guest needed, what you guys needed, what mom needed. Yes, and it's always perfect. And that's part of the experience.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
Oh, several. Some that the client, but I think that's important for people to know. I think people think like there's no, and it may not be the whole event, but it's definitely the tablecloths or the, Ooh, we should, we should have redesigned it. And you know, the tables were too far apart or the stage wasn't big, but, The art? There's one thing.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
And people don't realize we do that too. Right. But you realize.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
is the food coming out when's the cake coming you know all that has to keep going and you can't turn it off it's just that's part of this chameleon thing that and i you can't teach it i think you just have to you just have it yes and probably you having so much experience has given you that too what to do on the fly
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
Everyone says, oh, I go, they go, do you think you know everything? I go, every job I learned something. Every single job. Like for Shai's birthday party, the Western, we had hay. Mm-hmm. And Andrew, who, by the way, he's still as equally responsible for all the wonderfulness. He really is.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
And set tables, which the people who work with me, they look at me like, why? Why? why are you doing that? I go, it's part of the job. But I've done it long enough, 35 years, so I'm in it and I realize that, you know, I do need more life and a little less work, but it's all I know.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
He works with me, and he's very creative. But he was going to put burlap on the hay, and I said, it's just not soft enough.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
fabric you know on saturday running around trying to find fabric so these are things that people think oh it's not no it never stopped job no you know and it's always doing nordstrom's rack buying little western boots so the flowers go in there because i the details because i thought they were too weddingy flowers so i said let's put them in you know and my husband's right what are you doing i go we need cowboy boots for the flowers
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
And whether one person, you noticed it. I noticed it.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
I don't really like parties because it reminds me of work. I figured that. So, I mean, that's honest. I'm only responsible in my family of sisters for Hanukkah. That is it. That's my... And let me tell you, I have it catered. I make it beautiful, but... I don't want to do a thing. My nephew will help me on it, and that's it. And there have been times I use paper plates. They're very pretty.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
And I get really nice. I don't want to wash dishes. No, I get it.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
No, but I have a wedding coming up. So I did one for my older son.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
Three sons. Really delicious kids. Not because they're mine. They're so nice. So if anybody's worried about working too much and not being with the kids enough, it's enough because they're lovely.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
So we are planning the oldest and his lovely wife, who I adore. Didn't have a lot of comments on their wedding. But this one has a lot of interesting ideas. Okay. And thoughts. And I said to him, you have thoughts?
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
What I find most is that both families will split it, and if not, for us, it's always the bride. You know, for us, we think, oh, it's going to be the bride's family. But as the bride and grooms get older, which they are right now, sometimes they pay for it. Right. Because they're established, they're working. And I think that makes sense. Now, my son's not paying for it.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
But, you know, I'm definitely people are being quite kind to me. And, you know, well, I have a 28 piece band and I keep saying, don't you think that's 28 piece band?
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
Won't that be like, it's going to be like an old school.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
So it's going to be kind of that. Yeah, the speech was good. I loved it. um so we'll do some it's in a sound stage so we can create nice and um like one where one of the lemmy events was there so hopefully god you've thrown a lot of events for us thank god yes i love whenever they're the most creative i mean they you know it goes the gamut of really being different
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
A lot of the times they don't know. But it's nonstop.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
Yeah, but there's other people in the office that do. I've become somewhat territorial on certain things because... Well, yes. You have to. Plus, I find it easy, believe it or not. That's kind of... But what about your part?
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
But it's really because Kimmy and your mom, and they all want... It's almost like, oh, we have to do this for Khloe. Because you do that for them.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
It was so fun. And usually I'm in the back just sitting, eating hors d'oeuvres or something. But I was out there because I just wanted to watch.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
And what everybody wore. I thought they kind of went out.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
I do. During COVID, I wrote a flower girl book about my grandkids and then a ring bearer book about my best friend's grandson. So I love that. I did write a 500-page wedding book on how to get married and organizers. But everyone says, when are you retiring? When are you retiring? I go, I think about it when I'm tired, but what would I do?
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
It was never part of my trajectory to be into this business. I went to college in San Diego. I wanted to marry someone wealthy, not work, wear an apron in the kitchen and be that person. So this was not the plan.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
I love interior design, but I don't want to return a couch. In the party world, it's six hours and it goes away. So if there's a spot on the couch, you're not going to know. So interior's too permanent.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
Yes. Yes. So I have no plans. I want to keep elevating. I want to do unique. You know, there are some amazing event planners. It's good you love me because there's some good, really creative, you know, the looks going very residential now with how we're doing things. But I'm just, I love competition. So I'm going to, I know.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
Oh, yes. Good for you. I remember. That was fun.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
Oh, yes. Well, they were worried because they gave me a 500 page book to read about, you know, what I'm going to talk about. I go, I'm not going to read that. If you're just asking me questions, if I can't answer every question, then I'm not a master. And I had a great two 12-hour days and it was so much fun. And I realized I knew a lot about event planning. That was about weddings. You do.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
And I'm so grateful that you came on to Chloe in Wonderland. I said yes in one second.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
I mean, I wasn't, you know, my parents, my father worked. I was like that family, my mother didn't work. You know, she played cards and, you know, and, you know, entertained.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
It will be fun. I love you so much, Chloe. And everything people think you are, all the good stuff, you are.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
Yes, yes. Canasta and all that. Oh my gosh. And I would sit there and make the house pretty for that. But my parents gave the most creative parties. Oh wow. So it was in my blood. Like, you'll love this for my sweet 16. Now I'm so embarrassed. And when I tell people, oh, my God, what did my mother do? But I was obsessed because I never had boobs.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
I kind of have to be a chameleon for some because I would never let them know how I really feel. Right. Yeah. Everyone says, when are you retiring? But I love competition. It's better than sex for me.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
So I was always saying, oh, she thought it was funny. And in those days, she was very funny. you know, the Playboy Club had little clubs. Yes. Like they would have the Soho, you know, how we have Soho.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
They were these very cool, exclusive. Yes. You had these cards and it was just a big deal. So she decided to give my Sweet Sixteen at the Playboy Club.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
Literally, the bunnies had Mindy's Sweet Sixteen satchels. Yes.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
Very. But, you know, when I look back on it now and I'm looking at my Sweet 16 pictures and there's. Oh, yes. Breasty women with my name on their chest and my cake was a torso. I love your mom. Oh, no. She. That is hysterical.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
Yes. Everything. And very creative and. So I met, I've been married twice. My first husband was the one that, you know, he was wealthy and cute and everybody wanted to marry, and I got him. Really great guy. But he didn't want me to work. He was in the produce business, so he had strange hours. But I had to work. I worked in a bakery when I was 10, but I gained 15 pounds and I had to quit.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
But that was in me and I got a job at this little stationery store called William Ernest Brown. And that is where I met your mother, Joyce, Sheila, the whole gang. Oh, my gosh. And I would do, I don't know if you're Arlene Cranes.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
Of course. And I would do all their invitations. And who is now my best friend, like my sister, was my boss. She hired me. And we would do all these parties. Yes. And your mother would come in to do the birth announcements.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
Oh, my God. With the K names. And it was a whole thing. And every time we'd go, you're pregnant again? Like, you know. And I remember when Rob, because it was a boy finally.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
you know we go it's a girl it's a girl and then they had rob and they stopped until my mom remarried but chloe was a unique name like with the k yes yes i i can't i can't remember five minutes ago but you i can remember everything about going to your mom's house and kim was braiding my hair And your mom had this sunglass drawers that were lined in. Of course she did. In this heart pattern. Yes.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
But I remembered. The wallpaper. Of course you did. I remembered it. It was like stuck in my head. It was very popular, that wallpaper.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
The napkins. I did the tablecloth too, I thought. Yes, I think so. If I remember. Yeah. Yeah.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
So the thing with Chris and I, because we are... I'm a little younger, but we're from the same generation. And I know the event she went to. And I know, I remember things in the house. We kind of sourced some, like a TV. I don't know if you remember. There was some poppage there. Sometimes I get things and no one notices. But I always say to my office, somebody will notice.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
And it will mean. And we got those pajamas.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
Yes. I think that was the very first thing that I... No, the very first thing I did was your dad and mom's wedding invitation.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
The very first, I faked the whole thing. Now, I knew what to do because my parents gave parties, but had no sources, had nothing. One of the sons said, just do, because I did the invitations. That's how we go. If we go backwards, I started doing invitations and then went on my own and so on.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
Because this son asked me to do the party. Oh, wow. And I said, oh, I don't want to be a party planner because I would do all the party planners invitations. They were mean and cranky, demanding. I thought, oh, you know, I'm not going to do it. But I love this family and it was his big birthday. It was at Hillcrest Country Club. Oh my gosh.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
That was the very first. I worked at this very... cheeky small stationary store which is one of the things that you and i have a passion about paper paperholics and i worked there designing stationary invitations and your mom came in and she was getting married and when was that the 70s yes yeah sure no 80s
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
So what I did is when I went to go look at it, there was a party going on and I took every vendor's name because I had nobody smart who to call. Right. So I just faked the whole thing, realized there was money to be made if you do it smart. And that, you know, the heart started pounding. And I went, oh, my gosh. You know, because it was creative. And I'm a frustrated artist.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
Like, I can't paint, but I can paint in my head. And that's what I did with this party. From that one party, like the Davises were there. Right. Marvin and Barbara. They became my clients and all this. And these were like major people. These were like old money, old... Major people. They ran. It was the Camelot of the day.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
And that's how it all began. And then I did Brooke Shields' wedding to Andre Agassi. Oh, wow. Which I didn't know would be, because I'm so naive, you know, I just said, oh... You're so pretty. And then she sent me to the location with Andre by ourselves. And then we got along great and later read his book and realized what he was going through at the time I was with him.
Khloé in Wonder Land
Love is in the Details ft. Mindy Weiss
But, you know, and then you do a celebrity wedding and it goes okay. It's a very closed community. And then they started trusting me. And that's kind of how I got into that.
