Balloon Decoration Ideas, Decorating with Balloons

Absolutely Stunning Wedding Balloon Fountain

Sep 4th, 2009 | By Erica | Category: Balloon Sculptures

When it comes to wedding receptions, balloons may not be the first thing to come to mind. Instead, we start to think about flowers and garland and shimmering, white swaths of draped fabric. We make a list or talk to a decorator and suddenly the cost of those items starts to…well, excuse the pun…”balloon” out of control.

Bubble Fountain White EachIf you’re looking for great wedding (or prom!) decoration ideas that won’t break the bank, you need to check out some of the amazing balloon sculptures, columns and arches that can be done by professional balloon decorators  – or a few, really helpful friends. They’re not all that complicated once you understand the techniques and you can actually create some jaw-dropping displays.

This bubble fountain, for example, comes as a kit and includes the center lamps, the balloons, instructions, the base and is 6 feet tall by 6 feet wide. Placed next to the reception dance floor, it glows like a bubbling fountain of sparkling lights. Perfect for an evening party and it comes in a number of colors including white, lavender, and blue.

Add columns of white balloons wrapped in white lace and lit from behind around the room’s perimeter.  Float some helium filled, stuffed balloon clouds, also done in white with lace bows along the ceiling.  Or use the fountain for a special anniversary party balloon decoration and accent everything with gold, ribbon trim.

For an excellent planning guide, don’t miss Balloon Decor Secrets, a professional balloon decorator’s online ebook you can purchase for less than $13. It includes step by step instructions for amazing balloon displays and ideas for all occasions.

  1. This is indeed stunning. I would like to buy the balloon deco secret. How do I purchase the Arms balloon Fountain. Do you teach how to make beautiful balloons?

  2. You can purchase the book by clicking on the image to the right on this blog’s home page. It will take you to the home page for Balloon Decor Secrets. The fountain balloon can be found at Stumps (click the word “Stumps” to be taken directly to the listing for the fountain.

    I do not teach balloon decoration. I just scour the web for information I like and bring it here hoping it will help others who have a party to plan. Hope these ideas help and thanks for the comment!

  3. i love it alot,where could i get the book?

  4. Patricia – you can buy the fountain through this link: http://www.dpbolvw.net/click-3615564-10659704?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.stumpsprom.com%2Fcatalog.cfm%3Fpgp%3D9P289KC&cjsku=KSFIYA – that will take you to the product page at the online store that sells the fountain. If you are interested in instructions for making balloon decorations you can go to: http://www.balloondecorationideas.com/favorites/ebook While the book shows detailed instructions for making all kinds of centerpieces, balloon swags and great decorations, it does not include specific directions for this fountain. Just want to be clear so you get exactly what you’re after. I’m sure you’re planning a very special event! Enjoy!
