Balloon wedding arch?

Tiffany, on August 26, 2019 at 23:16 Posted in DIY 0 17
Hi everyone,

Needing some ideas and inspirations on a wedding arch. Thought of making my own balloon garland arch infront of my white backdrop but was worry that it would be too plain. Any brides out there done it before and can show me a picture ?

Was also thinking if I should just rent a backdrop instead but those things could easily cost a few hundred dollars. Ideas ideas please !

Happy wedding planning!!

    Check aliexpress.com they should have some arches that you can assemble and then get the balloons for!

    Wish has balloon arch materials, if you can find the actual structure, they have holders for th eballoons which main it a foolproof project!

    Well if you go with pastel grey/blue/pink all together then yes - definitely baby shower vibes Smiley tongue As for it looking childish; if I could I would have a bouncy castle at my wedding so I don't think it's childish... I think it's just being you (or in my case being me!).

    My worries are would it be not grand enough or too child like. Most people use them for baby birthdays and bridal showers. Colour I was thinking of was pastel grey blue...pink ...maybe with some confettie balloons there. But now I'm also considering getting my own backdrop and put 2 pillars on the side with flowers on them so it's like a wedding altar

    We rented a simplistic arch from Party Stuff for 55$ after we failed to create our birch arch in time lol.

    For me personally, I'd skip balloons because they are bad for the environment. Plus helium is a non-renewable resource we're running out of and it's used/needed more in medical scans!

    Happy planning!

    That would look beautiful. I would recommend doing a pre-trail though and seeing if you can do it or handle doing the diy arch

    Ok, so no need to worry about weather/wind! They sound like a good idea if you like the look of it - what colour were you wanting to do? I can google it and attach a picture for you? I prefer doing one colour but different shades.

    Its definatly possible but are you pretty good with balloons? I would only worry about time it would take to make it. I would def want to do a practice trial to see if it turns out way you like or what you want in end. As tori mentioned is it outside or in? I would only do it if inside and behind your table type thing. I would be too worried about it being popped.
