Balloon decor in Long Island that does the heavy lifting (and the heavy inflating)

You bring the guest of honor. We'll design, build and install the balloon garland, arch or backdrop your party is missing, in your colors, your theme and your budget.

Your Pinterest board is ready.Your weekend isn't.

Planning a party is a lot. There's the guest list, the cake order, the group chat that won't stop buzzing. Blowing up 300 balloons at midnight, and watching a few of them pop in your face, shouldn't be on that list.

  • Colors that match the invite

    Send us the invitation, the napkins or your inspo pic. We build the palette around it.

  • Done before guests arrive

    We set up ahead of time, so the first photo of the day isn't of us still working.

  • A price you know upfront

    Garlands start at $30/ft and we tell you the delivery fee before you book. No surprise line items.

That's the job. Let's take it off your plate.

Every piece is built by hand for your event. Two parties can share a theme and still get two different designs.

Hi, I'm Daniela. Balloons picked me, not the other way around.

The original plan was event planning. Then 2020 happened.

A friend was having a sprinkle, and I offered to make her a balloon garland. I learned the technique on YouTube, built it, and posted a photo in a local Facebook group. Let's just say my phone didn't stop buzzing.

What started as a pandemic side project became my full-time job. Since then I've decorated XXX parties across Long Island, and I still design every setup myself. When other decorators started asking how I build my garlands, I started teaching classes too.

My favorite part isn't the balloons. It's the second you walk into the room and say "wow." That's the whole point.

Questions hosts ask us before booking

All questions
How much does a balloon garland cost?

Our organic balloon garlands start at $30 per foot. Most parties use a garland around 12 feet, so about $360, plus a delivery and installation fee based on your location. Flowers, greenery and backdrops are extra.

How far in advance should I book?

As soon as you have a date. Weekends go first, especially May through September. Party in a few days? Check our Grab & Go garlands.

Do you deliver and install?

Yes. We bring everything and build it on site before your guests arrive. The fee depends on your town. Grab & Go garlands are pickup confirm.

How long does a balloon garland last?

Indoors, an air-filled garland usually looks great for several days. Outdoors, heat and direct sun are the enemy, so tell us if your party is outside and we'll plan the spot and the timing with you.

Can you match my theme or invitation?

That's our favorite part. Send us the invite, a napkin, a swatch or your Pinterest board and we'll build the color palette around it.

What if I need to cancel or change the date?

A 50% deposit saves your date. Life happens. If your plans change, reach out and we'll work with you to find the best possible solution.
