Tropical Flower Balloon Arch

I originally designed this colorful arch for a luau event I did with several other balloon artists last June.  Since then I've had several customer requests for this arch.  Seems that, no matter how elaborate the rest of the balloon decorations are at any event, this stunning arch gets the most raves!

Luau Decorations - Tropical Flower Arch with Tiki Poles

Princess Party Balloon Decorations

Funny how a last-minute addition can have lasting impact...

A couple years ago, I was asked to provide a couple of balloon columns and some centerpieces for the birthday party for an adorable 1 year-old girl.  The theme?  PRINCESSES!

For centerpieces I made balloon "pillows" upon which rested a balloon tiara.  These tiaras were then given as gifts to the other young guests at the party.



The lighted balloon Corinthian Columns were placed on either side of a beautiful Disney Princess mural that was provided by the mother of the birthday girl.


As I was getting ready to leave the venue, I hesitated...there was just something missing...  My husband was with me and I asked his opinion.  We came up with the idea of adding a "flower garland" - spanning the distance between the two columns and framing the beautiful mural.  It was a sort of "pseudo arch".  Last-minute...and it made all the difference.

ALOHA MITZVAH! - A Luau in Balloons

A LUAU is ALWAYS in-style! And to decorate your luau with pizazz....

do it in BALLOONS!

(Photos courtesy of Marci Shill Photography...the nice ones are, that is.

As guests entered, they were "washed-ashore" by a giant balloon rip curl! 
(About 1000 balloons in the "water" alone.)

A balloon "surfer dude" rode the balloon wave as well.
(Seems most every guy that sees this claims it was modeled after him...)

A very "touristy" balloon tiki hut served as a backdrop for a refreshing frozen tropical drink station for the teenagers  (12' wide, 3' deep, and 9' tall). 
Sure hope those tiki torches don't catch the hut roof on fire!

 "The Balloon People" came and set-up beautiful tropical palm trees throughout the room
 that we decorated with a variety plants, flowers and animals. (Thanks, Francine!)

 

We built a framed, non-helium, 32' Tropical Floral Arch that spanned the dance floor -

a colorful, elegant backdrop for the Polynesian dancers that performed that night. 

This is my wonderful husband JOE - I consider him to be the backbone of Balloon Happy AZ, LLC. 

He engineers and builds all the framing I need for my balloon project designs....

and helps with most everything else. 

What a guy!

Marta Hoburg (Bee Happy Balloons) and Kristy Edel (Twisty Kristy) -

Two FABULOUSLY talented balloon artists! 

We all work together as a team on large projects like this. 

Thank you, ladies!

And the rest of the team who made this all possible....
