-A GLAMOROUS, HEART-FILLED EXPERIENCE FOR MUMS
"The Real Mother’s Club was a glamorous, fun and heart-filled experience, the memory of which will stay with me for many years. Every element of the evening was curated with “motherhood” at its core. No stone was left unturned in ensuring that hard-working mums were encouraged out of the trenches of our own unique parenting experiences for one very special evening. We celebrated our parental achievements, shared stories of balls (and sometimes babies!) dropped, swapped tales of the many joys of parenting and openly shed the all-too-often hidden tears in a safe, supportive and decadent space! We met new friends and reconnected with acquaintances from our pre-motherhood days over wine, boutique gin, an extraordinary grazing board and on the dance floor!
Raising funds for the Gidget Foundation was the icing on the cake of a very special event… and I think I speak for all when I say that the fresh coconut handed out to guests on the way out of the event was very well received the next morning!”

-MEMORIES I WILL KEEP FOREVER
"It’s not unusual for me to be referred to as ‘the cold fish’ or ‘the hard stone’. I tend not to get too emotional. I take creativity for granted and rarely get overly excited. But when my surprise birthday was revealed to me, I was unable to hide my shock or conceal my excitement. I had no words for the adoration I felt for my partner for bringing it all together without even a hint or a suspicion it had been going on and in production for months.
While travelling from one location to the next on the planned element of my 40th birthday escapade, I was suddenly blindfolded and taken on a surprise detour. Bundled out of the vehicle and into an unknown building, I was left speechless when my blindfold was removed and sitting in front of me were 50 of my closest friends in a private art deco cinema. The lights dropped, the film reel began to roll, and the loud vivacious audience turned to silence as a professionally directed and edited montage of my life was played on the big screen. It was an expert and seamless aggregation of all sorts of short clips, family holiday videos, polaroid pictures, social media extracts, comedy skits, special occasions, and personalised heartfelt video messages and stories from around the world and from all ages of my family, friends and loved ones. Barely a dry eye in the house by the time the curtain closed on a choreographed ‘flash mob’ performed by some dedicated friends who had braved, ahem, arrest on the steps of the Sydney Opera House to complete their part of this unique creation and event. Memories and footage I will keep forever. ”

-SPRINKLED HER UNIQUE MAGIC
"What can I say? Chloe sprinkled her unique magic into all aspects of our event to create the most amazing experience which had us laughing, playing, drinking, reminiscing and all those amazing things one should do when celebrating with friends and family. Chloe had everything covered from styling to the most amazing delectable food and coolest bands to get us boogieing and pulling some dance floor moves, leaving us stress-free and ready for party shenanigans.
Needless to say, we had the best time, and our friends had an absolute blast as well. If you are looking for that touch of awesomeness, Chloe is the event guru for you.”

-A VERY HAPPY ATMOSPHERE
"For my 70th birthday, I asked Chloe-Anne for her help on the day to ‘set up’ the room. But I received so much more. I had never used such a service before and was delighted with all aspects of the process. First, she presented me with a number of concepts and ideas for me to choose from. These helped me choose a theme and a colour that set the choices for flowers and arrangements. The tables were beautifully decorated with the chosen colours as well as several huge arrangements in key locations of foyer and entrance way. Chloe-Anne and her team worked both the day before and the morning of the luncheon to decorate and set up the room. As well she created an individual place setting and room layout board for all the guests in a beautifully handwritten font. This made seating a large number of guests so easy. I particularly liked some special activities that Chloe planned to break the ice. It allowed guests of different ages and generations to mix and mingle easily, which in turn created a very happy atmosphere.
Chloe, throughout the whole process, was professional, creative and giving, and I can thoroughly recommend her services."

-ABOVE AND BEYOND ANY OF MY EXPECTATIONS
"So when a good friend said she would help me out with my 40th, I naturally said ‘yes’. A weekend away with my friends is all I wanted ...It turned out FAR more spectacular. How Chloe managed to pull off what she did without me knowing was incredible. A beautiful house in the Hunter Valley suddenly overnight became a wedding venue... I was renewing my wedding vows with THE most important person in my life, my rock, my everything. I was blown away .... the venue looked absolutely spectacular, every single detail was taken care of, my 3 young children, my family, my friends. Food, drinks, entertainment. It was the most incredible day and night, not only for me but for everyone present.
Chloe went above and beyond any of my expectations, she managed the whole event so professionally and I would recommend her to anyone planning ANY event. She is original, thinks outside the box and is guaranteed to ensure YOUR event is one to remember! "

-THE MOST AMAZING BIRTHDAY EXPERIENCE EVER.
"Oh my gosh! THE most amazing birthday experience ever. It was the ultimate surprise, and with so much detail, I felt like a million bucks. Probably more than on my wedding day! I work in design and brand, so the finer details matter to me. Chloe had succeeded that with every part of the day thought through. From food to transport to locations, to outfits. (She even organised a London taxi to make me feel at home!) Every part of the day was designed with me in mind. I love a surprise and a challenge, so she organised for me to be ‘kidnapped’ and taken to an escape room, but not just that, the one with a film noir theme as this was what my birthday was based on. I get to the hotel suite, and all the food and drinks that were prepared were thought about. The champagne labels were based on the design and logo theme of my birthday. The outfit, hair and make; up all organised for me. The dinner was booked at a French/film-noir-themed restaurant, which was amazing. I have connections with France as well, so this made me feel very nostalgic. Chloe also participated in the event, which probably makes it harder as a planner. But she was totally relaxed; I got to spend quality time with her. She never got stressed or panicked, which added to the relaxed, enjoyable feel of the event. Plus, she looked amazing!
I cannot recommend Chloe highly enough."

-AMAZING IDEAS
"As a crazy paw-parent, I have always wanted to throw a party for my beautiful and cheeky fur-son, Siao Chu. So when Siao Chu turned 8 last year, which is similar to a human’s big 5-0, I wanted to do something special for him but didn't know how. That is how I met Chloe! Chloe was absolutely amazing and is filled with SO MANY AMAZING IDEAS! She was so patient and dedicated; it felt as though she was planning it for her own puppy dog! She organised everything from start to finished and never once did I have to worry about the party. The best thing about Chloe is her attention to detail, how she will work hard to stay within your budget and not once compromise what I want or need for this party.
Chloe will be planning Siao Chu's next big party soon!"

-CHLOE GIVES YOU EVERYTHING YOU DIDN’T REALISE YOU NEEDED
"When Martin and I married in Sydney (for the second time after our Stockholm wedding), I'd just popped out our first baby and really didn't feel like making a big deal out of another day. We'd already had our "real" wedding. It wasn't until Chloe walked into our house that morning with the perfect cake flowers, bouquets and boutonnieres she had handpicked and put together from the markets that we realised how special the day was going to be. Suddenly it felt as special as it should have. Not a repeat of our first wedding, but an entirely new and rare opportunity to prove our commitment to each other, and now as a family of three. All I'd shown Chloe was one photo of a bunch of flowers I'd liked which she took and made infinitely better and more unique than I could have imagined.
The thing about Chloe is she has impeccable taste and has an incredible read on people and situations. She knows what you want and need even when you're not able to express it very well yourself. And she creates something unique out of it which you simply won't find anywhere else. So if you're looking for an event or style that looks exactly like something you've already seen don't ask Chloe. She'll do it a little differently - and much better. And it'll be everything you didn't realise you needed."

-COULDN’T BE HAPPIER
"Chloe-Anne was a saviour. We asked for a delicate arrangement of Australian natives as a bridal bouquet and table placings in August, and in one week Chloe-Anne delivered. Starting with detailed (and calming) meetings to understand our needs and help us understand what was possible, to quickly rolling into a 4 am visit to the Sydney Flower Markets. We couldn’t have been happier with the way Chloe-Anne made an important part of our day so easy and beautiful. No request was too much, and Chloe-Anne always made us feel at ease that she would deliver. And deliver she did. The final arrangements were magnificent, exactly what we asked for. Elegant yet simple and dignified. A beautiful blend of Australia’s natural beauty."

-ONLY CHLOE COULD GIVE THE WOW FACTOR WE WANTED
"When we approached Chloe about planning my husband’s 40th, we knew we wanted something big. Even though I am creative and can organise an event, I knew I didn’t have the skills or time to do it the way Chloe could. We wanted it to be special. An event that would spoil our friends and family and allow us to spend time doing the things we like to do with them. After being blown away by what Chloe did for her partner’s 40th, we knew she was the only one who could give us the wow factor we wanted.
The event was our perfect day. We absolutely loved it! Our friends who couldn’t make it know that they missed out on the party of the century. Chloe found an amazing old barn in the Southern Highlands and turned it into an English gentleman’s shooting lodge. She arranged for the guests to be transported to the venue and the games, entertainment, food and whole atmosphere were all incredible. Chloe took care of every little detail, including the most beautiful table settings I’ve seen. It was all really well planned. Really detailed and seamless. Chloe even organised for Ben to get a tailored outfit for the party and made it a really special experience for him.
Chloe was incredibly professional, always letting me know how everything was going and working with our budget. And she made the whole experience so much fun. I really enjoyed the process. If you want an unforgettable event to celebrate a loved one in your life, I can't recommend Chloe enough.”
