About Southern Charm Events

While struggling to find the perfect name for her company, Tanya turned to her hubby, Kenny for advice. Kenny hit the nail on the head when he told her she stood out from the rest because of her Southern Charm. Tanya, with the help from her "Mr. Wonderful", started her company in 2006 with a focus on family, Southern style and above all else, quality customer service.

Since then, Southern Charm Events has grown from a mom and pop company to a small network of employees creating a small family full of Southern Charm! Our team brings many years of experience in multiple areas to include wedding coordination and planning, event design and décor and wedding venue management. We are proud of our team and invite you to meet each of them personally.

CEO | Certified Wedding Planner | Professional Wedding Consultant

Tanya's unmatched attention to detail and her love for timeless design blend seamlessly, making her the perfect balance of creative vision and organized precision. With a background in Interior Design and Legal Administration, she brings both artistry and structure to every event she touches - qualities that have made her stand out in the wedding and event industry for nearly two decades.

Affectionately known as The Wedding Mama, Tanya is loved and respected by her couples for her caring heart, calming presence, and no-nonsense approach. She wears the title as a badge of honor, treating every client (and their family) like part of her own Southern Charm family — offering both peace of mind and a little "mama wisdom" along the way.

Tanya is a Certified Wedding Planner through the Certified Wedding Planner Society, and has earned the designation of Professional Wedding Consultant through the Association of Bridal Consultants, where she also serves as a member of the local Board of Directors. Her work has been featured in both print and online publications, including some of the industry's most respected blogs and media outlets.

When she's not designing dream weddings, you'll find Tanya spoiling her grandbabies, cuddling with her shop pup Sophie, or discovering new local gems - though her all-time favorite spot remains Orsay (extra points if you know her favorite dish!).

In Tanya's words:
