Creative Balloons

Creative Balloons for Grownup Events - Balloons are not just for little kids' parties. Grownup events are also sporting balloons, but in colors, shapes and designs that are surprisingly sophisticated. Inspired and innovative balloon designs make event decorating easy, affordable and fun.

Here are some creative ways to use balloons to decorate a special event:

1. Weddings are not traditionally balloon occasions, but inflatables of all sizes can be used to create elegant shapes and tableaus. For example, hundreds of shimmering, opalescent balloons can be strung like pearls and swooped across ceilings to create a refined mood. A large pair graceful balloon swans positioned beak-to-beak creates a lovely heart-shaped arch for the bridal table. Balloons can also be clustered to create spiraling, floor-to-ceiling columns to enhance the entryway or the dining and dancing areas.

2. Giant, oversized balloons are meant to make an astounding impact at special events. Balloon sizes can be enormous, from three to 20 feet across or more. The biggest balloons come in an infinite array of colors and shapes, including animal prints, simulated planets, walking and dancing balloons, copyrighted characters, and even giant, flying saucer-shaped styles. No doubt, these huge, grownup balloons can attract attention at large events and leave a lasting impression on any crowd.

3. Creative lighting is one of the best tricks to make the most of grownup balloon designs. Deeply colored up lights can give balloon arches and columns a substantive and regal appearance. Add a soft and appealing glow by placing strong lights behind pearlescent balloon designs and tableaus. Inflate a colored balloon inside a larger clear balloon and insert tiny, flashing LED lights. These innovative light effects make it easy to create new balloon colors and patterns, and add a festive mood to any special occasion.
