How did Mindy Weiss become the Kardashian-Jenner's go-to event planner?
Well, I am so excited to have you on today. So Mindy Weiss has been a part of my family for decades, and I'm not exaggerating. It's true. Decades and decades. Yes. Before you were born. Yeah, I was just going to say that. Yes, you, and correct me if I'm wrong, because my mom sometimes exaggerates, but my mom said that you threw her baby shower for Kourtney. 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. Oh my gosh, yes. 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
no because courtney was born in 79 oh so so i'm assuming they got married before but scandalous who knows so you're right i always thought it was a but you're right yeah she was born 79 and whenever and then you not only are throwing my mom's baby showers for us but now you throw all of our baby showers and yes it's completely full circle weddings and birthdays everything yeah You are. You are the end all to be all in my eyes. But not only are you this insane party planner, but I feel like you have such a connection to pretty much all of your clients. 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.
Right. Yeah. No, I get it. And you're dealing with people in high emotional situations. The most. The most. Mm-hmm. Either there, you know, it could be a wedding or a death or whatever that you're planning. And people don't realize we do that too. Right. But you realize. You do anything and everything. Yes. I'm having a fancy sleepover. And you'll be like, okay, we'll set it up. Like you literally will do anything and everything. 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.
Well, I feel like I know everything about you, but I don't know if my listeners and viewers do. So I would love for you to take me back and tell me a little bit about yourself and how you got into event planning. 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. Who knew? 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. Which I love. Gin rummy. 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.
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.
