Below are a few do-it-yourself ideas as well as ideas you can share with your balloon decorator:
On Your Own
- For centerpieces, string up four helium-filled balloons that coordinate with your wedding colors. Use bags filled with sand as your anchor or rocks covered with tulle and ribbon.

Create a canopy above the dance floor using tulle and multi-colored balloons. Consider releasing the balloons during a strategic part of the reception.
- With wire, fashion the shape of a heart. Tie small helium-filled balloons to the wire, clip the string so it can’t be seen and hang with decorative ribbon from the ceilings.
With the Help of a Professional
- Accentuate your dance floor with a pillar of balloons at each corner. Choose two colors and create upward diagonal stripes.
- Make your grand entrance through an archway of balloons. For a more spectacular appearance, line up several arches in a row to create a balloon tunnel.
- Frame your wedding cake with a heart archway. The heart is anchored to the cake table, made with helium-filled balloons and should be large enough that the cake can easily fit underneath.
- String rows of balloons diagonally from each corner of the reception hall. In the middle, make a cluster of balloons that will act as the focal point of the entire creation.
Clusters of balloons can also be used to cover up unsightly spots at your reception site. So, instead of talking about cracks in the wall or the messy DJ table, your guests will be raving about the gorgeous and creative decorations! |
