Guido,
Thank you for your guidance – I know very little about CSS. Your suggestions did not quite give me the result I wanted. However, it allowed me to do some research. I came up with the following which seems to work. I wanted the date first followed by the event title. Do you see any problems with it that might interfere with your plugin elsewhere?
.vsel-meta-start-date vsel-meta-single-date {clear:none; float:left; width:25%;}
.vsel-meta-title {clear:none; float:right; width:75%;}
