Meredith Tanton - Sweet Grass Social Event & Design
Meet Meredith! In their own words…
I was born and raised in Charlotte, NC but have deep roots in the Lowcountry. Charleston was always a primary vacation destination for my family and so my love affair with this city started from childhood. The history, focus on hospitality and gentility of Charleston always spoke to my soul, so after graduating from Elon University with a degree in Corporate Communications, I decided to put down roots in the city I love. As co-founder of Sweetgrass Social, my passion for wedding planning is echoed throughout the elegant and dramatic design details I contribute to each event. While I honor tradition and love a classic design, I also love to add a touch of glamour to all my events and inject them with my client’s personal style. I always love new friends and can’t wait to meet you to help plan your big day!
Madison Moseley - Madison Moseley Events
Meet Madison! In their own words…
Madison Moseley Events was born in 2013 after I planned a wedding during my sophomore year of college. Somewhere between the phone calls to florists, the cake tastings and the hundreds of hours spent huddled over my computer at 2am- I fell in love. My passion for weddings started when I was twelve and began doodling wedding dresses in the corners of my schoolwork and only intensified when I met my now husband, Preston, when I was thirteen. We, well I, daydreamed about and planned our future wedding over Sonic hotdogs and by the time I was a freshman in college it was planned from “I do” to “we did”. I am an avid organizer, a firm believer in the color wheel and have a bachelor’s degree in marketing. My name is Madison Moseley, and I want to create the wedding of your dreams.
