Ancestry asked guests to write notes and attach them to a "family" tree; there was also a historian on site who helped attendees navigate their family histories. Other lounge sponsors included Lucy Hart Ink, which provided on-site brow-shaping, as well as Pinkberry, Don Julio Tequila, and Watch Gang.
