Options and ways to create decorations from balloons for a wedding
Holiday decoration is an important and responsible question. Today, everything is on sale to create a unique and memorable celebration. But with the ever-changing fashion, one thing remains unchanged - balloons organically fit into any event. Nothing is as associated with the holiday as they are. From childhood, bright balls bring us joy, cheerful mood and expectation of magic.
Therefore, using balloons in wedding decor is always a great idea.
Pros and cons of aerodesign
Decorating the hall with balloons has its advantages and disadvantages. The obvious advantage of this decor is its budget.

Everyone can find an option to decorate the event according to their taste and financial capabilities.But, as in any design, here you should carefully study the range of products and the features of the application of each individual type.

Foil with helium
Balloons of this type will not spoil your celebration with a sharp bursting sound, since they are much stronger and more reliable than the usual latex ones. Such products look incredibly beautiful, because in addition to the standard oval shape, there is a huge variety of products on the market in the form of swans, hearts, letters, stars, numbers and even people.
Helium is often used to fill the balloons, and weights are attached to them when making intricate figures or compositions.
Backlit
If you want to add a twist to the decoration of your celebration, then illuminated balloons are ideal for you. The glowing effect is achieved by using special LEDs. This decor will be remembered by you and your guests for a long time. Such balls are ideal for decorating a gazebo, when organizing an off-site wedding, but can also be used in a classic banquet hall.

Choice of color shades
Many designers recommend choosing a color scheme not only based on personal preferences and the theme of the ceremony, but also taking into account the season of the celebration. Bright multicolored balloons are associated with a children's matinee. At a wedding, such a decoration will look ridiculous both in summer and in winter. Pick two primary colors that blend harmoniously with each other and stop there.
The greatest demand is for a combination of pastel shades., for example, lemon and light green, pale pink and white. However, contrasting colors, when used correctly, can look even more stylish and sophisticated. In this case, an interesting solution would be a combination of red and white, black and pink.

Heart made of balloons with your own hands
Of course, in order to save time, newlyweds often turn to experienced craftsmen. However, there is nothing difficult in creating a decor with your own hands.
The heart has been considered the main symbol of love for several centuries. It's hard to imagine a wedding without this attribute. But do not rush to buy ready-made products in the store. To create such a home decoration, you will need very little free time and available tools. In order to make a heart-shaped figure yourself, you need to have tape, wire, 2 packs of latex balloons, fishing line and a pump.
The wire is indispensable in the manufacture of the frame of the desired shape. Think over the size of the product in advance, based on this, choose its length. You will need approximately 4 meters of wire. Inflated balloons must first be tied in pairs. Then you should connect every two pairs to each other. To do this, it is better to twist them carefully. Thus, by tying the balls into "fours", you can easily string them onto the wire frame. Please note that the balls must fit snugly together.
As you can see, making a heart does not require special talents and skills, and it will be doubly pleasant to admire a handmade jewelry on such an important day.
