Built in the studio, finished in your room
Every display is designed for the space it fills. We ask for the room size, the ceiling height and a description of the spot, then send a sketch with measurements before a single balloon is ordered.
Garlands and arches are built in sections at the studio and joined on site, which keeps most set ups to about an hour. Helium is used only where balloons must float, and every helium bunch is weighted.
- Room size and ceiling height checked first
- A sketch with measurements in every quote
- Weighted frames for arches indoors and out
- Every balloon taken down and cleared away by us
How long a display lasts
Balloons react to heat, sunlight and air conditioning, so these are typical times for our displays rather than promises.
| Display | Indoors | Outdoors |
|---|---|---|
| Air filled garland or arch | Up to two weeks | One or two days in shade |
| Helium latex bunches | About a day, longer when treated | A few hours |
| Foil numbers and letters | Several days | A day, out of strong sun |
| Ceiling cloud with helium | One or two days | Not suitable |
Latex is a natural material, yet it breaks down slowly, so we never release balloons and we clear every display away ourselves.
From the first message to the last knot
Four steps, with the same designer looking after your event from the sketch to the take down.
Tell us about the event
The date, the venue, your colours and a description of the spot you want to fill.
Sketch and price
Within two working days you receive a sketch with measurements and a fixed price.
Hold the date
A 30 percent deposit secures the date, and the balloons are ordered in your colours.
Set up and take down
We arrive two to three hours before guests, build the display and return for it the next day.
Rooms we have filled
Weddings, birthdays, launches and showers from the past season.
Said after the party (example reviews)
The arch matched the sketch down to the sage and cream we had picked. It went up in an hour and came down the next morning without one balloon left behind.
Our launch needed the company colours and nothing that looked cheap. The backdrop ended up in every photo from the evening.
A ceiling cloud for a seventieth birthday in a church hall. The grandchildren spent the whole party tugging on the ribbons.
Questions about balloons
How far ahead should we get in touch?
Four to six weeks for weddings and large launches, and a week or two for birthdays. Late enquiries are welcome, and we say honestly whether your colours can be sourced in time.
Are balloons safe around young children?
Burst or uninflated latex balloons are a choking risk for small children, so displays are fixed out of reach and we pick up every scrap afterwards. Keep loose balloons away from children under eight, and tell us about any latex allergy so we can work in foil instead.
Do you use helium?
Only where balloons need to float, such as ceiling clouds and bunches. Most garlands and arches are air filled, which lasts longer and uses no helium at all.
Can displays go outdoors?
Yes, on weighted frames and with an eye on the forecast. Strong sun and wind shorten the life of any balloon, so outdoor displays are built as close to the start as possible.
Do you ever release balloons?
Never. Released balloons come down as litter and can harm wildlife, so every display is taken down and cleared away by us.
Is collection included?
Yes, the next day. If the venue needs the room cleared the same night, a late collection costs $60 more.
Ask for a sketch and a price
Share the party date, where it is happening and the look you are after. A sketch and a fixed price follow within two working days, and nothing is ordered until you say yes.
- Measurements in every sketch
- Price fixed before anything is ordered
- Deposit and balance paid directly to the studio
