We could easily call it an oasis. When the spectacular Atlanta Food & Wine Festival took place in the city earlier this year, the event attracted hundreds of chefs, sommeliers and cooking industry greats, as well as 10,000 attendees. With big names and big-name corporate sponsors, everyone wanted to look their best!

The WM Events team was brought on to create an inviting atmosphere for the #DeltaAmexPerks hospitality tent, offering guests the feel of an exotic getaway and a real-life escape from the famed Atlanta heat. (Our city definitely earned that moniker that shall not be named.) The lush tent featured cooling greenery and delightful florals, an eye-catching backdrop, ceiling installations and a variety of comfortable seating options. For a temporary setting, it offered long-lasting appeal.

We started the decor by designing a 30-by-10-ft. branded backdrop of white panels in a geometric lattice for the exterior of the tent. We added Polynesian-inspired plants, a mix of real and faux greenery, and faux florals in pink and green. A massive #DeltaAmexPerks logo was placed in front and on top of the greenery and floral accents so that it appeared to bloom from within. Finally, we used ferns to camouflage the base of the panels and create a cohesive look.

At the entrance, we added color with silver urns holding ferns and foliage accented with florals. These were repeated in the four corners of the space interior.

Inside the tent, we crafted a vacation-like atmosphere with a similar backdrop – this one 35 feet long – which was hung directly on the tent walls. Everywhere, we placed more of the tropical plants with lush, green leaves. These were complemented by bright floral arrangements that adorned the highboys, lounge areas, bar and food stations. Faux tropical plants in colorful ceramic pots were also used to hide some equipment.
