Step into the world of Zoe Pniewski, the passionate host of A Million Memories. This is a very special charity concert raising funds for the Alzheimer’s Society.

Zoe is the driving force behind My Special Event, a business she lovingly founded in 2016 with a heartfelt mission:

” to transform dreams into reality and moments into cherished memories”

Zoe’s journey into the events industry is one built on passion, resilience, and a true love for bringing people together.

Before stepping into the world of celebrations, she worked across several professions, including Conveyancing and various roles in childcare.

It was her natural flair for organising celebrations for friends and family that ignited her desire to turn this into a career.

In 2018, Zoe officially became a qualified Wedding and Event Planner. She earned a Level 3 Distinction Award & ABC Award Quality Licence Scheme Certificate of Achievement from The Regent Academy.

These formal qualifications, combined with experience, gave her the expertise and confidence to grow My Special Event.

Based in the seaside town of Bognor Regis, Zoe finds inspiration in the coastal views and calming sea breeze. While her core focus is West Sussex, her events have reached well beyond, proving that her passion knows no postcode.

My Special Event offers a wide range of planning services, including bespoke weddings, themed parties, and charity events. Zoe’s motto for each client is simple yet powerful:

“My aim is to make your day as special as you are.”

Through life’s challenges—including the COVID-19 pandemic and the UK’s cost-of-living crisis, Zoe’s dedication has remained unshaken. She is constantly evolving her services to ensure that every celebration is joyful, stress-free, and meaningful.

In 2024, Zoe took on a new venture alongside fellow businesswoman Lyndsey Lee of Office Wrens Virtual PAs, launching Vows and Views Wedding Fairs.

The first events were met with overwhelming success, bringing together trusted wedding professionals and enthusiastic couples all under one roof.

Fast-forward to 2025, Zoe now proudly runs the wedding fairs solo twice a year, and she’s loving every moment of it.

Working with both new and familiar suppliers, Zoe thrives on building strong, supportive working relationships that help engaged couples connect with their perfect wedding team.

And there’s more! In 2024, Zoe also introduced Generations Singing Duo, a dynamic mother-and-daughter singing duo formed with her mum, Yvonne Edwards.

Together, they bring over three decades of performance experience to the stage, enchanting audiences with songs from beloved musicals and classic film soundtracks.

The duo has regularly lent their talents to local events and charity causes, showcasing not just musical ability but heart and community spirit.

Zoe’s love for performing doesn’t end there. A proud supporter and fan of tribute acts, Zoe has seen The Take That Experience multiple times and even had the joy of meeting them with her mum in November 2024. So, it’s no surprise that she jumped at the opportunity to bring this beloved tribute band to her hometown.

But A Million Memories is more than just an event; it’s personal. Zoe is producing the concert in loving memory of her beloved nan, Olive, who sadly passed away from Alzheimer’s. Olive was an extraordinary woman, and Zoe’s vision is to create a night she would have adored, one filled with music, joy, and togetherness. A Million Memories isn’t just a show; it’s a heartfelt tribute, a community celebration, and a promise that Olive’s spirit and memory will never fade.

Zoe’s goal is clear: to produce an evening that Bognor Regis will never forget.

With her unmatched commitment, personal touch, and passion for both events and entertainment, she’s well on the way to doing just that.

Outside of her business and performing, Zoe is a proud wife and devoted mum to one.

She cherishes family time, whether it’s a cosy night in, a lively gathering with friends, or an escape from everyday life.

One of her favourite ways to unwind is through holidays with her mum, especially their treasured Warner Hotel breaks, which offer just the right mix of relaxation, laughter, and musical memories.

Stay tuned. This is more than an event.

This is A Million Memories.

And Zoe Pniewski is the heartbeat behind it.
