À la Chloe

The most overlooked constraint in wedding design is not the color palette or the selection of flowers; rather, it is time. Prior to finalizing your venue, it is essential to conduct an audit of the Setup Window.

As a designer, I regard the vision as a comprehensive project. A complex, sculptural installation necessitates a specific “labor-to-time” ratio. Many venues offer a designated setup time limit for vendors, with opportunities for couple to purchase additional hours in some cases. (important part to check ✔️)

Although proficient designers can craft beauty under pressure, a “rushed” design incurs additional costs. If your setup time is inadequate, you are not merely paying for flowers; you are also compensating for the increased labor required to create a masterpiece within a reduced time frame.

[The Designer’s Tip]
Ask about the setup hours before you sign the contract. These aren’t ‘hidden fees’ intentionally, but they are a logistical reality. Reexamine an extra two hours of setup time upfront is often more cost-effective than paying for the army of additional staff needed to beat a 120-minute clock.
