She Books You Without a Quote and She's Not Sorry with Chloe from Your Day By Chloe | Ep 40
Six years in, Chloe from Your Day By Chloe has planned and styled some of the most beautiful weddings in NSW and I interrogated her. About quotes (she doesn't believe in them), about petal tosses (she's over it), about florists who send a stranger on the day without a style brief (we don't talk about those people), and about eggs as a wedding trend (yes, eggs, stay with us).
This episode is essentially a masterclass in what happens on the other side of your inbox. Chloe breaks down the actual difference between a planner, a stylist and a coordinator, walks through her entire process with florists from first booking to wedding day, and gets candid about commissions, referral fees and where her thinking has shifted over the years.
We also get into how florists can actually get on a planner's radar, and spoiler, a cold DM isn't going to do it, but a bunch of flowers to the door just might. There's a conversation about whose job it is to source the vessels, what to do when the planner-florist dynamic is genuinely not working, and why Chloe would rather see one enormous impactful arrangement than flowers on every surface just for the sake of it.
Plus trend chat, a passionate takedown of pearls on vegetables, and what Chloe thinks is quietly about to have a very big moment in wedding styling.
