Swift 3: Simply create a NSMutableAttributedString and append the attributed strings to them.

let mutableAttributedString = NSMutableAttributedString()

let boldAttribute = [
    NSFontAttributeName: UIFont(name: "GothamPro-Medium", size: 13)!,
    NSForegroundColorAttributeName: Constants.defaultBlackColor
]

let regularAttribute = [
    NSFontAttributeName: UIFont(name: "Gotham Pro", size: 13)!,
    NSForegroundColorAttributeName: Constants.defaultBlackColor
]

let boldAttributedString = NSAttributedString(string: "Warning: ", attributes: boldAttribute)
let regularAttributedString = NSAttributedString(string: "All tasks within this project will be deleted.  If you're sure you want to delete all tasks and this project, type DELETE to confirm.", attributes: regularAttribute)
mutableAttributedString.append(boldAttributedString)
mutableAttributedString.append(regularAttributedString)

descriptionTextView.attributedText = mutableAttributedString

swift5 upd:

    let captionAttribute = [
        NSAttributedString.Key.font: Font.captionsRegular,
        NSAttributedString.Key.foregroundColor: UIColor.appGray
    ]
