“Tanis is incredible with unmatched skill! Our perfect weather forecast changed to storms DAYS before our wedding causing us to need tents and draping. We called her two days ahead of time and she came to our rescue! She was prompt & clear in communication and made making our tents beautiful so easy!! Would hire her again in a heartbeat and couldn’t recommend her more!”
Cassie Marchi

“Working with Tanis on the draping of our tent was a wonderful experience. From start to finish she was thorough, prompt, and a complete professional. Not only did her services really elevate the look of our tent, she was able to pivot and expedite a beautiful space for us in a short amount of time when our tent rental was late and came with missing pieces. If you are looking for a draper to bring your space to life, Tanis is your person!”

“Beautiful job, easy to work with, came early to put drapes up, and came at end of night to remove drapes! It was the least of my worries and the drapes made the venue look beautiful :)”

“Thank you so much for making our wedding look like an absolute dream!! The draping was beautiful and just what i had envisioned!!”

“I booked Tanis for my wedding this July. Her work was phenomenal and I highly recommend booking her ASAP. I originally booked Tanis for my wedding that was going to be in December to add a beautiful backdrop for the ceremony. Fast forward, the pandemic happened and I had to move my wedding to July of this year. As stressful as that was, Tanis was so understanding and accommodating throughout the process. I absolutely loved the design and decor for my ceremony. The draping took it to another level. Love, love, love!”

“Tanis and Tanis J Events are lifesavers!!! Four days before my wedding, my rental/draping company informed me that they did not have enough draping to complete my original request. My wedding coordinator contacted Tanis J and Tanis graciously agreed to drape the entire 56′ wall for my reception. IT WAS BEAUTIFUL!!!! My only regret is that I didn’t use Tanis J to drape my entire event, as the stage area that was draped by the other company looked like a cheap shower curtain. Tanis J’s draping was beautiful and very high quality! I am forever indebted to Tanis and her team! I encourage anyone in the Charleston area to use this company for high quality draping. THANK YOU TANIS J!”

“Tanis and her team did a wonderful job draping Founders Hall for our wedding reception. They turned the back wood paneled wall with TVs into something beautiful and whimsical with their draping expertise. I didn’t realize how much draping could set the stage and add so much elegance to a venue space. Tanis is very easy to work with and her team is very professional.”

“Tanis was a life saver. We had to change ballrooms at the last minute due to COVID restrictions. I reached out to Tanis just a few weeks before the wedding. She was very prompt with correspondence and her prices were reasonable. They arrived for set up and take down right on time and the installation was perfect. I would not hesitate to use her again!.”
Guerry Kirkland

“Working with Tanis J Events was such a breeze! Especially having to book with them last minute. They were super detailed in how my design would look, and it looked even better in person! I would recommend them 100%. I wish I could share the pictures ☺️.”

“Tanis was a life saver to us. Our wedding venue closed a month before our big day and she met me at the walk through of the new venue and helped me create a vision for the space. She arrived on time the morning of our wedding and executed her design perfectly. Tanis was even kind enough to install extra decorations I brought on my own.”

“We hired Tanis to help us with the Hindu wedding ceremony at the local temple in Charleston. She did an amazing job with the set up of the “Mandap” and the draping was absolutely beautiful! She also did the backdrop draping and table decorations in the hall and it all looked very beautiful. She is very easy to work with, affordable, and is punctual. She is highly recommended”

“Tanis J Events provided excellent service for our 2016 Cotillion! Tanis transformed our stage area with draping which made our stage area stellar! She also made a skirt for the stage with her draping which was not a part of her contract. I highly recommend Tanis J Events for your next event.”

Tanis was joyful, punctual, affordable and extremely courteous! I would highly recommend Tanis to all of my family & friends! Thank you, Tanis, for your outstanding service!”
Julie Miler (Mother of the Bride)

“Tanis!! You beat me to it but I wanted to send an email to thank you for the drapery services! We thought it looked absolutely gorgeous and was the perfect touch to soften the back patio area. It looked great in conjunction with cafe lighting too. We received several compliments from guests about how great everything looked and we were highly pleased as well! The patio was used throughout the night by everyone. If we are ever in need of those services for events in the future, I will be in touch! Thanks again!!”

“I’m in Houston getting back to a normal routine. But I want to take this opportunity to thank you in Lisa’s & Caters, and in my name for the wonderful draping work that you did in the Carriage House. It looked fantastic exactly the way like it was on one of my pictures. Everybody talked about it and loved it! Many thanks!”

“Tanis J Events is absolutely the best there is for any and all event planning in Charleston and the surrounding area. The team went above and beyond in planning our wedding and handled everything with ease and grace. Tanis is incredibly professional, courteous, an excellent communicator, and clearly a pro. Even when a hurricane literally ruined our venue and threatened to postpone the event, Tanis calmly jumped in and found us a new (and better!) venue within 24 hours and quite literally saved the day! The coordination and drapery skills provided by Tanis J Events are superb and we are so lucky and blessed to have had her assist us on our big day!”

“It really means a lot to us that you take pride in both installation and breakdown. We love working with vendors who understand the importance of leaving the space as they found it. And I really can’t thank Chauncey enough for coming out this morning. And by the way, it did look absolutely gorgeous! We look forward to working with you again in October. Best of luck throughout this crazy busy wedding season!”

“I’ve had the pleasure to work with Tanis on several occasions and every event has been spectacular!!! She takes care of every detail of the event, fulfilling the bride’s every dream. One event that I’ll always remember is when an approaching hurricane threatened the Lowcountry, and there was the possibility that the bride’s venue would be inaccessible if the hurricane continued on its current path. Not willing to take a chance on the bride’s venue, Tanis opened up her own home to host the ceremony and reception. This is dedication; not just to her job, but to the bride and groom.”

“Tanis, It is so funny how things work out; one day you were ordering your wedding cake with me, and a year later I am calling you to be my coordinator for my wedding. I couldn’t have done it without you! You were on top of everything and what impressed me the most…you did it all by yourself. “Wow!,” to the favors on the tables, to the sparklers at the end of the night…everything was perfect! Thank you so much for making me feel so stress free and for making our wedding day as memorable as ever! I look forward to working with you again and again and continue to send business your way. With lots of hugs…..Thank you!!!”

“As a wedding vendor, it is always such a pleasure to work alongside Tanis J. Events, LLC on any event. We are a lighting company that has benefited on many occasions by the added beauty of their draping against our lighting. They are not only professional, dependable and affordable, their draping skills are top notch. Tanis reuses all her fabrics therefore the quality of the fabric she chooses to use is far superior to that of many other draping companies and it shows in the final product.”

“You and Chauncey did such a fabulous job “draping/lighting” Cara’s wedding reception at Alhambra Hall yesterday……..you’ve got an amazing talent and “niche”! We could not have been more pleased with the unique appearance and effect. AND you are SO NICE!! Really appreciate your extra effort getting those signs hung from the Bride’s and Groom’s chairs!! If you ever need a recommendation, please count on me for that!”
Robin Hardin, Wedding Planner

“Thanks Tanis Jackson of Tanis J Events for a flawless night! Everything was perfect. I couldn’t think of a word that could explain better than perfect. It’s been quite some time since we have shot a wedding that has ran so smoothly and gave the clients time to have the portraits done that generally take more time than the generic formal session. Super Awesome job Tanis. I’ll always be a fan.”
