A PAIR. A PATHWAY. A WHOLE ROOM.

Put the focus where it belongs.

Use a pair of columns to mark an entrance, place them beside a stage or marquee display, or repeat your colors throughout a venue.

For corporate celebrations, we can coordinate multiple event areas. For private parties, columns bring height and personality to a photo backdrop without needing a full arch.

Balloon column questions, answered.

How many balloon columns do I need?

A pair can frame a single entrance or backdrop. Larger stages, pathways, and multi-room events may benefit from more. Send venue photos or a layout and we’ll help plan the placement and quantity.

What heights are available?

Classic columns are offered at approximately 6 and 10 feet, with other styles and sizes quoted to suit the event. We’ll confirm ceiling clearance, topper details, and final dimensions in your proposal.

Can columns match our brand or party theme?

Yes. We can coordinate balloon colors and recommend shapes or finishing details around your logo, event palette, or theme. Share your inspiration when you inquire.

Can balloon columns be used outdoors?

Outdoor placement depends on conditions and anchoring options. Wind, sun, heat, and weather affect balloons, so we’ll review the location before recommending a setup.

Are delivery and removal included?

These are quoted separately as applicable. Your proposal will show the décor and the services needed for your event, including delivery, installation, rental equipment, and return pickup or teardown.

How do I reserve balloon columns?

Send your date, venue, colors, preferred style, and estimated investment through our inquiry form. We’ll confirm availability and provide a quote. Your date is secured after the required agreement and retainer are completed.
