What we do

I am Zoe, the Founder and Lead Curator. I established Curated by Zoe based on the belief that the planning process should be as enjoyable and effortless as the event itself. My professional background spans over ten years immersed in the world of global luxury hospitality, from exclusive European ski seasons to navigating the globe within the ultra-high-net-worth yachting industry, I have forged an unwavering commitment to the highest standards of service and discretion.

My career highlights have been collaborating on high-profile set-ups aboard yachts for major occasions, such as the Cannes Film Festival and the Monaco and Abu Dhabi Grand Prixs. As a Chief Stewardess, I gained intricate knowledge overseeing the full range of events—from birthdays, intimate dinners, and children’s parties to themed nights, fashion shows, and company celebrations both onboard the yacht and in private residences.

My background guarantees logistical finesse; I pride myself on thinking on my feet and pivoting seamlessly under pressure. Crucially, having planned high-scale events within New Zealand for the past four years, I have built excellent vendor relationships to ensure efficient collaboration. My expertise lies in anticipating every operational need and proactively introducing those unexpected, signature touches that elevate the atmosphere, keeping the momentum high and creating celebrations that are always spoken about.
