Balloon Garlands & Arches That Own the Room

The big statement piece. We build organic garlands, full walk-through arches and half-arches in your colours, then install them in your space so the only thing you carry is a phone full of photos.

Three Shapes, One Obsession With Detail

Every piece is air-filled and built on real hardware, so it holds its shape for the whole party and usually keeps looking sharp for a week or two indoors. Not sure which shape fits your wall? Send us a photo of the space and we will tell you straight.

Organic garlands

The classic asymmetric run of balloons that hugs a wall, a bar, a staircase or a backdrop. Mixed sizes, mixed textures, deliberately imperfect. Garlands are measured and quoted by the foot, so you can start small above a dessert table or run one the length of a feature wall.

Full arches

A true walk-through arch built on a frame: two legs, one curve, endless photos. Great for entrances, ceremony aisles, grand openings and anywhere you want guests to stop and take a picture before they even say hello.

Half-arches & columns

A half-arch sweeps up one side of a backdrop, a doorway or a photo corner, and columns frame an entrance without eating floor space. This is the move for tighter rooms, condo parties and venues with strict setup rules.

What's Included in Every Install

No surprise add-ons buried in the fine print. Here is what comes with a garland or arch booking.

  • A quick design chat: your colours, your space, your photos, our opinion (free and honest).
  • Colour matching, including double-stuffed and specialty shades when your palette is very specific.
  • Air-filled construction on proper frames and fixings, built by hand the day before or the morning of.
  • Delivery across Vancouver, the North Shore, Burnaby and Richmond, and further out on request.
  • On-site install by our team, including the fiddly bits: levelling, wall-safe fixings, hiding hardware.
  • Optional teardown after the event, so nobody has to pop 200 balloons at midnight.

We build it

Your garland or arch is inflated, shaped and quality-checked by our Vancouver crew, not thrown together in a parking lot.

We arrive in your setup window, install, tidy up, and come back for teardown if you booked it. You get the room, we get the empty boxes.

Garland & Arch Questions

Our garlands and arches are air-filled rather than helium-filled, so they hold up far longer than floating balloons. Indoors you can expect roughly one to two weeks of good looks, and easily the whole weekend. Outdoors in direct sun or freezing weather, plan for the day of the event only.

Almost any. A 6 to 8 foot garland is a lovely accent above a dessert table or a fireplace, while a feature wall usually wants 12 feet or more. A full walk-through arch needs about 8 feet of clear width and 8 to 10 feet of height, so send a photo of the room and we will size it properly.

We install. Our team brings the hardware, the ladder and the patience, and sets everything up in your venue during your setup window. If you would rather do it yourself we can build a garland for pickup, but the big arches really are a two-person job.

Usually yes. Bring a paint chip, a fabric swatch, an invitation or a screenshot and we will match it as closely as latex allows, including double-stuffed shades for those very specific in-between colours. Custom colours take extra work, so they add a little to the quote.

For garlands and arches, a week or two of notice is comfortable and peak seasons book out further. If your event is in a few days, still ask. Sometimes the calendar cooperates and we can squeeze a build in.

Yes. We install across Vancouver, the North Shore, Burnaby and Richmond as a matter of course, and travel further into the Lower Mainland regularly. Tell us the address and we will confirm.
