Balloons are a universal symbol of celebration. This trend is becoming increasingly popular, with weddings now incorporating updated balloon arches and more modern balloon lettering. So why not embrace the trend with some of these light and fun ideas on how to use balloons at your wedding.
UP, UP, AND AWAY…
Why not create your own magical ceiling with balloons! Use white balloons across the ceiling to create cloud-like features. This will bring the airy outdoor sky into your wedding venue, and give your guests something to be in awe of.
BREATHING LIFE INTO GARLANDS…
Spruce up any unused space at your wedding with a stunning balloon garland! Incorporate greenery and florals into the look to match your wedding flowers and theme. This unconventional garland will be sure to capture the attention of your guests!
MR AND MRS…
A cute keepsake and photo opportunity…these Mr and Mrs balloons add a nice touch to the wedding party’s table! Show off your new marital titles in style with these balloons at your wedding.
SEND-OFF INTO THE SKY…
Most brides aren’t too keen to have the tradition of rice, glitter, or confetti thrown at them as they leave the ceremony. Why not keep the symbolism of prosperity and fortune by asking your guests to send you off with balloons. At night, when the bride and groom are leaving the wedding, LED balloons are another nice way of sending the couple off to their honeymoon. As balloons can be harmful to the environment when they land, make sure the balloons are weighted down and disposed of properly.
A BALL(OON) OF A TIME…
A nice way to incorporate balloons into the wedding is to have a wall of them, acting as a backdrop for your photo booth. This will create a fun and inviting space for your guests to take memorable photos, all the while having a cool and interesting backdrop.
Number 1 Idea…
Ditch the regular wooden table numbers and use balloons instead. Not only will the height of the balloons make it easier for your guests to spot the table they’re sitting at, it also creates an interesting centrepiece for the table and doesn’t block the guests views.
A POP OF BALLOONS…
If you’re not too keen on a full-blown balloon arch, why not pop some balloons in to add to the beauty of a floral arbour. This is a simple, yet stunning way to incorporate the balloon trend into your wedding.
CENTREPIECE CREATIONS…
Balloons come in all shapes, sizes, and colours. Create an interesting centrepiece by styling the balloon in a truly unique way. This balloon centrepiece is decorated as a hot-air balloon, but you could also arrange with flowers, greenery, and tassels.
L IS FOR THE WAY YOU LOOK AT ME…
Why not spell out the love you have for one another with balloon letters! From ‘Just Married’, to ‘LOVE’, to ‘Mr & Mrs …’ the possibilities are endless! Create your own personal decorations with these letters to add a modern twist to balloon art.
BRING SPACE TO LIFE…
Add balloons to what otherwise might be a boring space, for example, next to the welcome signage or the cake display. What might be a big, bland space can be brought to life with some floating style!
