The whiskey tent was open on three sides, and, to hide the backs of the bars without closing off the area, Wagner employed a wood-slat design that framed the front corners of the space. She also designed a burlap backdrop with stenciled brand names and brought in distressed bars and barrels. The overall look, Wagner said, had a 'woodsy distillery feel.'

Constellations Brands' 'Passport to Wine' tent represented a departure from previous years. 'The brand has typically executed this space using rich leathers and mahogany,' said Wagner. 'This year they asked for something that wouldn't be too far off from the brand's [traditional image], but would bring a modern, luxe wine-bar feel.' To achieve that look, Wagner and her team used faux boxwood hedge as the backdrop and brought in silver mirrors on which servers wrote the featured wines of the day. Organizers accented the space with silver travel accessories such as chrome binoculars, lacquered books, and a model airplane.
