Balloons - in Helium or Air?
Helium
The majority of celebrations and events incorporate helium-filled balloons. For example and by far the most popular are the helium-filled latex balloons which are good for the duration of the event, and add great 'wow' factor to the occasion.
Helium-filled foil balloons are slightly more expensive, but last for longer and are ideal to take home when the event has finished.
Air
In addition to providing helium-filled balloons, we can enhance installations for your party or promotion by incorporating some air-filled balloon arrangements: air is free, but it does not give the 'lift' that helium does to a balloon. Impressive air-filled balloon sculptures and designs can be constructed, and because air is used these displays can remain inflated for a few weeks.
Type of Balloon
Balloons have traditionally been available in latex and foil. Recently a new 'bubble' balloon has been manufactured. This has the 'look' of a latex balloon and lasts the same length of time as a foil balloon.
Balloon Colours (pearl finish, opaque finish etc.)
Foil and latex balloons are available in a wide range of colours and colour tones.
Size of Balloon
Balloons are available in sizes ranging from 4 inches right up to 3 foot. Very large balloon displays can be created using a number of these large 3 foot latex balloons. The foil balloons are also available up to a large 'air walker' size (approximately 5 foot).
Table Displays
We can create a number of different table displays using latex or foil helium balloons. The most popular display is the 3-balloon bouquet. This is a cluster of 3 helium latex or foil balloons anchored with a weight of some sort. You can make-up a display with as many helium balloons as you wish. The helium balloons can be anchored-down in the centre of the table using a variety of different style of balloon weights.

Floor Displays
We can also design your individual helium balloon floor displays. The helium balloon displays can compliment the table displays in colour and style. Or you may wish to personalise your helium balloon floor displays by using some of your ideas and designs to compliment the overall theme of your celebration.
Latex and foil helium balloons can be used in the design and the height of the helium balloon floor display can vary according to your venue.

Balloon Arches
We can create a number of different helium balloon arches. They can use a variety of different size helium latex or foil balloons. Helium balloon arches can be constructed in a variety of different colours, using helium round or helium shaped balloons. Balloon arches can be placed over doorways, banisters, cake tables, wedding 'top tables', - the uses are endless!

We can construct your helium balloon arch to be of a 'single-string' design, giving a 'floating' look to your arch. This type of helium balloon arch can then be dressed (or finished-off) with ribbons and/or tulle.

Or, you could choose to have a Spiral Arch, which is a more 'rigid' and dense balloon arch. This design gives a more definite spiral effect to the eye and can be constructed with air and would stay in place a lot longer.
Topiaries
We can construct some beautiful balloon topiaries for your special occasion. A balloon topiary consists of twelve latex balloons moulded together, placed in a pot on a stick to produce a topiary shape design. The balloon topiaries vary enormously with the size and colour you choose to use. Small table topiaries or large floor-standing topiaries are available. Instead of a terracotta pot, a base of balloons is an alternative option.

Cloud Nines
We can create your own helium balloon 'cloud nine' at your celebration or party. A 'cloud nine' (or 'cloud cluster') is a bunch of nine helium-filled balloons that floats high above (or behind) a table. It can be designed in your own choice of colours, ribbons and tulle. Three groups of clusters is the most popular but we can make it as many clusters as you wish! Larger helium balloons can be used with smaller balloons inside to add that individuality.

Anchorage / Balloon Weights
Helium-filled foil balloons are required to be anchored (or weighted) by law. There is a vast array of weights available, or bespoke balloon weights can be made to order if required.

Feature Tables
We can enhanced specific tables or areas at a function by dressing them with special balloons, tulle and/or ribbons. This is very popular for the 'top table' at a wedding or a buffet/cake table at other similar functions.
We can 'dress' specific tables and bar areas using balloons, tulle and/or ribbons. This enhances the area and is very popular for the 'top table' at a wedding or a buffet/cake table at other similar functions. This arrangement could incorporate air-filled latex balloons, five inches in size which would complement the larger helium latex balloons used in the table displays.
