Preparing for a wedding is a hassle, but a pleasant one. If you approach the organization creatively, distribute roles between assistants in advance, and resolve financial issues, then the days of pre-wedding preparation will become as bright and positive as the celebration itself.
Decorating the hall with balloons is a great wedding decor option. When choosing balls, pay attention to the color scheme. It is ideal if the outfits, bouquet, flowers, drapery and all attributes are harmoniously combined in color and character.
You can decorate the hall with balloons yourself, or you can invite designers.
Organizing an ideal wedding is within the power of each of us, the main desire, because the world in which love reigns is full of harmony and beauty.
What kind of balloons are used to decorate weddings: types and compositions
Those who have not personally encountered the process of choosing balloons most often do not even imagine that they differ greatly from each other in composition, appearance and a number of other characteristics. The main criterion for choosing balloons for wedding hall decoration should be the quality of the product.
Regular balloons
The term “regular” refers to balloons made of latex. They are inexpensive, but at the same time they are not inferior in quality and relevance of application.
It is enough to scatter them on the floor - and they will already decorate the room. You can also make chains or garlands from balloons and attach them above tables or in another suitable place.
Often such balloons are used to decorate a wedding procession. In this case, you can use both small plain balls and large ones with a pattern or inscription.
With helium
Helium-filled balloons are considered the most successful option for giving a chic look to the room. Helium is necessary for the balloon to rise up.
Balloons under the ceiling have become very popular. It looks great: by combining different colors, you can create a unique and colorful picture.
For greater effect, you can tie spiral ribbons, which will give the decor a special charm.
But if the ceilings are low, it is better to refuse such decoration, since visually the room will seem cramped.
Also, “standing” balls located on the table or on the floor will become the main decoration of the banquet hall. But it is worth remembering that when placing such “bouquets” on the table, they are tied to a long ribbon so that the airy beauties do not block the view of the guests.
The number of balls in one bunch can vary from one to seven - a larger number looks cumbersome.
To prevent helium balloons from rising upward, they are attached to a weight, which can be the same balloon filled with a small amount of water.
Foil
Original foil balloons are made of aluminum film, which visually resembles foil.
The originality of this product lies in the fact that the shape differs from the standard oval.
As a rule, foil figurines in the form of the first letters of the name of the bride and groom, hearts, rings, stars, etc. are chosen for a wedding.
The strength of such a ball is quite good, so you don’t have to worry about the reliability of the decoration. The special shine that is inherent in “foil” will add a festive mood.
Balls for modeling
The main feature of such balls is their elongated shape, which is also called a “sausage”. Thanks to this, they can be used to model various figures that will decorate a festive celebration. They come in different sizes, this makes it possible to create aerial miracles.
Most often, flowers or entire flower arrangements are made from such long balls. To do this, they are bent and tied in the right places.
Panoramic
This type of ball looks quite unusual due to the fact that its front part is transparent, and there is a pattern on the inner back wall.
This creates a panorama effect. The pumping method is helium only. It’s worth thinking in advance about how to properly place such an airy masterpiece so that all guests can admire it.
Self-blowers
Self-inflating balloons will be a pleasant surprise for guests. They look like the most ordinary foil balloons, only in this case a stick is attached to the base.
Inside there is a “magic” capsule, after pressing which the inflation process begins without outside help.
LED
LED balloons will be a wonderful decoration for a wedding evening.
In fact, this is an ordinary ball with an LED attached to the inner wall. The glow is distributed evenly, with the color depending on the shade of the ball. The wedding atmosphere will be filled with romance and tenderness with such decorations.
Figures, swans, hearts, fountains, stands, garlands of balloons
The balloon itself is already a holiday, and the aerial composition is a masterpiece. Talented craftsmen are able to create unique jewelry from paper and latex material that will not leave anyone indifferent.
Figures that can be made for a wedding:
- giant wedding rings;
- bride and groom;
- angels;
- stroller.
And, of course, don’t forget about the symbolic swans. It’s not so easy to “invite” the living to a wedding, so you can make them airy.
If desired, you can even make them yourself, the costs are low. Airy hearts are the main attribute of a wedding, don’t forget about them. Light balloon fountains will add the right festive mood to the atmosphere. The whole composition consists of balls “tearing” upward, which have different heights.
The use of air struts is a very original idea.
A wedding in a classic style will be complemented with them in the best possible way. Alternatively, you can place the stands parallel to the edges of the newlyweds’ table.
It is impossible not to note the effect of aerial garlands. They add a special chic to the festive atmosphere: by combining colors, you can achieve an incredibly beautiful design. Hung around the hall, they will become one of the main decorations of the celebration.
Choice of colors
The bright multi-colored balloons that we are used to seeing at children's parties are not suitable for a wedding hall. Wedding decorations should look elegant and harmonious. To achieve this, choose the right color scheme according to the wedding concept. Two or three colors are enough, for example, pink and white, lemon or light green. If the accent color predominates in the decoration of the entire room, use it for the balloons.
Decoration with ordinary balls
Regular balloons are made using latex material - they are the cheapest and usually have an oval shape. It's best to fill them with helium so they float above the ground. Tie the balls together in a few pieces or let them hang towards the ceiling - this decor for the hall will look amazing.
Foil balloons with helium
This type of balloons is stronger than latex ones, so they will not spoil the celebration with an unpleasant bursting sound. They are made in the shape of a variety of shapes - hearts, flowers, letters, numbers and even people. Thanks to special materials, these balls look beautiful and original.
Illuminated balls
A creative idea for decorating a wedding hall is illuminated balloons. This unusual type of decor is just coming into fashion. The glow effect is created by built-in LEDs and batteries.
Using balls for modeling
The decorator will help you make unusual decorations for the design of the room using modeling balls. They are long, oblong “sticks”, by tying them in a special way, the master can create different figures, for example, bouquets of flowers or an arch, as in the photo.
Panoramic balls
One side of this option is transparent, and an image is applied to the other from the inside. You need to hang them so that the picture is visible to guests.
Balloons
Self-blowing balloons will surprise everyone present. Their mechanism consists of a special device with pumps to which balls are attached. At the right moment, for example, when a couple sits down, someone presses the start button - all elements are filled with air on their own.
Balloon figures and inscriptions
Classically decorating a hall with balloons means creating a variety of shapes and inscriptions. It all depends on the imagination of the newlyweds and their preferences - the decor can be two rings, huge swans, a crown over the heads of the bride and groom, or any other elements symbolizing the love of the couple. The inscriptions can be original or classic - with wishes of happiness to young people.
Chains
Balloons made in the form of a chain look elegant: they will add solemnity to both a wedding in an inexpensive restaurant and a chic banquet hall.
Fairy lights
A large garland behind the newlyweds or balloons collected in it and stretched across the hall will become a stylish decoration for a banquet.
Arches
Balloons arranged like an arch are a wonderful decoration for a wedding venue. This element can be placed at the entrance so that everyone from the threshold feels the beauty and solemnity of the event. Also, large numbers of arches can be located throughout the hall on the way to the main table of the bride and groom.

Whatever wedding style and decoration you choose, be guided by your wishes. After all, a wedding is your holiday, and let nothing darken your mood on this bright day.
General recommendations for decorating a room
- The decoration of the hall in a modern style includes floral arrangements with non-standard plant species. To prevent flowers from looking too simple, combine them into cascading bouquets.
- Volumetric garlands and lamps made of paper are more suitable for a tent-shaped room. They will create romance and will not look cheap compared to other items.
- Monitor the size of bouquets and flower arrangements on the tables. Their optimal height is no higher than 30 cm.
- If you don’t want to highlight specific colors, you can install specific lighting in the room.
- Before decorating the room, make sketches. This is especially beneficial if you do not use the help of designers. An untrained eye may miss some points.
Paper pompoms
The bride can decorate her room on her wedding day before the groom arrives. Do it modestly but tastefully. To do this, she will need very little time and financial costs. Large pom poms can be made from crepe paper in the desired color.
The next master class will help the bride decorate the room for the holiday at home, tell you what is needed for this and what materials will be required.
- You need to take crepe colored paper of one or two shades. Cut out squares of approximately 20x20 cm. If you need larger diameter balls, then the squares should be larger. The elements can be from 5 to 10, depending on the required volume.
- All sheets are folded in a stack. Then they are connected into an accordion so that the fold width is 2-3 cm.
- The product is folded in half. The edges need to be slightly rounded.
- If you bend the accordion, you get something similar to a butterfly or bow.
- The pompom will need to be tied in the middle with a satin ribbon, leaving long ties to hang the element in the right place.
- All sheets of paper are straightened. The pompom can be hung. Moreover, it is worth decorating in this way not only the room where the bride’s ransom will take place, but also the entire house.
Combination with other elements
If the decoration of the hall consists mainly of balloons, then an abundance of additional decorative elements will not be required. Most often they use bright paper pom poms for a cute design or fabric and ribbon for an elegant and formal atmosphere. If you also use single color LED string lights, you will get an even more vibrant and vibrant environment.
Balloons work best with fabrics and ribbons. Translucent drapery hangs on the walls, tablecloths are laid out on the tables, and chairs are decorated with blankets.
This is enough to create a harmonious design for a wedding reception. From the balls you can create garlands, hearts, rings and other figures that are placed at the table of the bride and groom, decorated with “swings” made of translucent fabrics.
Some elements are not suitable for creating a harmonious composition. For example, balloons do not combine well with fresh and artificial flowers, since they all simultaneously attract attention and “compete” in the decor. You can place just a few small floral arrangements on the tables or add green climbing plants to the ball chains.
Launching wedding balloons into the sky is a significant and beautiful ritual
The newlyweds of the world know a huge number of ways to launch “bright spots” into the air. Come up with your own. Figure out when the right moment will happen. Will this happen in bright daylight? Or in the evening, when sky lanterns bring more emotions?
The most spectacular thing will be the launch of luminous balls in the dark. An unforgettable sight will open: a bright flying cloud cutting through the night sky. And under the ceiling of the banquet hall they also look romantic and beautiful.
Photo of LED balloons for a wedding – brightness and radiance
Of course, it's worth thinking about quantity. And who will release the balloons: young people, each guest, or will it be the launch of balloons from the net.
What do newlyweds say when they release balloons into the sky? Most likely, vows of love and fidelity
It is important that the words spoken come from the heart and are sincere
Old-fashioned rituals have been replaced by another new-fangled trend - launching the bride’s surname into the sky on balloons launched with one’s own hands, as one of the symbols of parting with girlhood and entering into family life. What could be more exciting if the bride takes her husband's last name? Attach a sign with the bride's name to the balloons or order a stamp on one large balloon. Launch this symbol with your bridesmaids.
Goodbye girlhood. And balls
Balloons are perhaps a relatively inexpensive and traditional way for the bride and groom to decorate their wedding celebration. The event will create the illusion of airiness, and a variety of compositions will place those present in a soaring atmosphere.
How to decorate the site with your own hands?
To make your wedding hall look festive and beautiful, you don’t have to spend a lot of money on decorator services; you can do everything yourself. To transform a room, you need to use:
Depending on the theme of the holiday, you need to select decorations for it. During the day, you shouldn’t spend money on lighting, because it simply won’t be visible. At a wedding in the morning and at lunch, you should pay attention to the lighting, which should be natural and best fill the room. Flowers made from paper or ribbons are perfect as decorations in confined spaces. Even bows, which can be easily made from satin ribbons and placed on chairs, napkins near plates, or on any fabric in the room, will be an excellent decoration.
If your style allows, decorating a room with balloons is simple and easy. This option does not require large financial investments; you can do it yourself, and the effect will still be the desired one. It is not advisable to use balloons in an open space, as gusts of wind can tangle them, break them, or even cause them to burst. Decorating a wedding hall yourself is not difficult, the main thing is to approach the process creatively and with desire.
Decoration of wedding glasses
Drinking drinks is a ritual event at any wedding. Raising their glasses, guests greet the couple and express their wishes. At the same time, guests use sets of standard tableware without any special frills, and newlyweds must stand out from the crowd, so their glasses need to be decorated. The symbolism that can be used is rings. With the help of ribbons, beads and spraying, glasses can be transformed into a real work of art. Inscriptions, drawings and applications are applied to them. You can order images from an artist or dream up your own.

Options for decorating a wedding hall with balloons
Decorating a wedding hall with balloons is one of the most popular and inexpensive decorations. Since childhood, balls have been associated with celebration, a feeling of joy and delight.
The color of the balloons should be combined with the shade of textiles: curtains, tablecloths on tables and the color of the walls. You need to think in advance about the number of compositions and where they will be placed
Using ordinary balloons, you can come up with a lot of ideas for decorating the hall:
- decorate the chairs of guests and newlyweds;
- create a variety of shapes;
- decorate the path along which the newlyweds will walk;
- build an arch or a whole vault.
Swan made of balloons
Mylar balloons, made from a metallized film, are very durable and come in a variety of shapes: hearts, rings, flowers and stars. They need to be used with helium so that the bright figures float in the air and attract attention.
Heart-shaped balloons can be used to decorate the entrance to a restaurant for a wedding. At the slightest breath of air they will sway beautifully. You can also order figurines of newlyweds from balloons and install them in the center of the hall.
To surprise guests and create a charming spectacle, you can purchase self-blowing balloons. Inside they are capsules, when pressed, the balloon self-inflates. For example, after the newlyweds are announced as husband and wife, colorful balloons begin to rise into the air behind them - an amazing show!
Self-blowing balloons are ideal for an outdoor wedding. They are convenient to transport and there is no need to waste time inflating
A new trend is illuminated balls. Battery-powered LEDs are hidden inside the balls. Multi-colored lights in floating balls will help create a romantic and tender atmosphere in the room.
Illuminated balloons
Red balloons are in greatest demand for decorating a wedding hall. Red is a shade of love and passion, which is why it is so popular in wedding preparations. Red balloons can be used to decorate absolutely any part of the room: the newlyweds’ table, the entrance to the hall, the dance floor.
And most often, balls are chosen to match the color scheme of the entire interior and design. With the help of well-chosen colors of the balls, the room can be turned into a real “fairy tale”.
Volumetric structures made of balls
Original three-dimensional figures made from balls are a trend that once became fashionable and has not lost its relevance to this day.
Some people call specialists to create these decorations, others sculpt aerial sculptures on their own.
They are relevant for any event. You can create a garden of flowers for a children’s party, a forest of aerial Christmas trees for the New Year’s holiday, children’s favorite cartoon characters, etc.
We bring to your attention the simplest version of a three-dimensional figure - flowers:
- We will need: latex balloons (green, yellow, white), threads, ribbons and wire, a hand pump and, of course, a good mood.
- Inflate 5 white balloons, which will be flower petals.
- We tie them together, fastening them with threads or wire, so that the petals look in different directions.
- Now we inflate 5 yellow balloons 2 times smaller in size (or simply inflate them not completely). We also connect them and create the core of the flower.
- We connect the petals (bottom) with the core (top).
- Inflate the red balloon and secure it in the center at the top (this will be the “pestle”).
- We create the stem from elongated green balls. We put on several long “sausages”, weave them like a rope and attach them to the base of the petals.
- At the base we place 4 large green balls connected to each other (for stability), and on top of them – 4 small green balls. This will be a “flowerbed”.
- Now we connect the stem to the “flowerbed” - our flower is ready.
- You can decorate it with serpentine, sparkles, etc.

Where to start decorating a room
Once the location of the ceremony has been finalized, planning the decorative elements can begin. The first thing to start with is choosing a theme for the decor and the main colors of the wedding. If the entire wedding is dedicated to a specific theme, then naturally the decoration of the hall will be appropriate. In other cases, you can select the style and colors that will match the location of the celebration.
After choosing a theme, we decide on specific areas that will be decorated for the celebration. Most often these are the following places in the hall:
- tables on which you can place vases or baskets of flowers;
- decoration of glasses;
- decoration of the restaurant space;
- small accessories that create the impression of a wedding (invitations, guest cards, napkin rings, etc.).
Purchasing decor for a wedding can be more expensive than ordering a banquet. However, most design elements can be made with your own hands by watching several thematic videos on the Internet. The bride and her bridesmaids can make glasses for the newlyweds, exquisite napkin rings and small boxes with gifts for guests.
What does blue wedding decor mean?
Blue wedding theme
The first interesting theme for a blue celebration is a sea wedding. Just think, blue sea waves, foam and golden sand are perfect for a themed design. A wedding can be a summer celebration on the beach, or a more vibrant luxury option on a yacht. Of course, in the latter option, you need to warn guests who suffer from seasickness in advance so that they take all their medications with them.
For a winter wedding, blue could not be more relevant. The festive celebration can be emphasized with Christmas tree decorations, Christmas candles, frosty intricate patterns, snowflakes, snowmen. Such decor gives the event a fabulous and magical feel. And the photos of such a wedding in winter turn out simply magical.
A winter wedding in blue tones turns out luxurious. Use fur, artificial snow, an ice arch. If desired, such a celebration can be arranged in the summer, but, of course, it will take a lot of effort to decorate and equip the hall, plus good air conditioners and window drapes so that the summer sun does not spoil the winter fairy tale.
On a note
A wedding in a dark blue shade requires more responsibility in preparation, while a wedding in blue requires less responsibility, taking into account the possibilities of classic combinations.
Decoration of a wedding hall in blue
Blue is a very deep color. It is best to avoid inappropriate color combinations. Different pastel shades look great on a blue background. The main thing is to maintain moderation. Photos in the design of such a room will be cool and stylish. To avoid unnecessary diversity, it is preferable to use 2-3 colors when decorating a holiday.
How to decorate a photo zone, arch, walls, hall with balloons?
It is important that all participants in the wedding celebration have only positive memories.
Here you will see how you can decorate your wedding with balloons in an original way:
But over time, some details are forgotten, and to remember the wonderful moments, you need to open a wedding album with photographs. To make them bright and colorful, it is worth considering the design of the photo zone.
Photozone
A photo zone made of balloons for a wedding will be bright and extraordinary. It is important that the area allocated for the photo shoot is in the same style as the festive celebration.
Foil balloons with the first letters of the newlyweds’ names or the word “love” look great in the photo. The bride and groom “bathing” in balloons is also an appropriate and fun option.
Giant balloons look great. At the same time, at the end of the celebration it would be a good idea to give each guest one balloon and organize a joint launch of them into the sky.
Arch
A balloon arch is a chic decoration.
Made using two contrasting colors, it will complement the look of any celebration, especially a wedding. Most often, the arch is placed above the newlyweds’ table and (or) at the entrance to the banquet hall.
The beauty of such a composition is incredible - with a good imagination of the master, you can create a real aerial miracle.
It is important that the composition of the balls does not look bulky. This will ruin the photo. There should be lightness, which is achieved by a moderate number of balls in the frame.
Wedding hall wall
A decorated room must have its own style, which should be based on when choosing balloon decor. Despite the fact that balloons are beautiful and festive, if you place them incorrectly or lose your sense of proportion, you can ruin everything.
For decoration, it is best to use two primary colors. There is no point in randomly scattering and hanging balloons throughout the hall - it is cheap and tasteless.
Order balloons in advance for the decoration of the hall, which will have the initials of the newlyweds and the date of birth of the new young family. At the end of the evening, it will be nice to hand them out to guests as a keepsake of the celebration.
Surprise Balls
Surprise balloons can be very interesting decorations. Their peculiarity is that in a large balloon there are many more small balls, and with them streamers and confetti, which will begin to fall on lovers and guests, as soon as this huge balloon is pierced. Such a magical decoration is undoubtedly a must-have for any wedding.
Creativity is an important part of wedding design and is always encouraged. Therefore, if ordinary balloons seem boring to you, you can replace them with foil balloons in the shape of the bride and groom, hearts, swans and other various shapes that match the style of your wedding. Such balloons are guaranteed to look original, very cute and funny.
It would seem, what could be so unusual about balloons? However, it’s worth showing a little imagination, and now the classic decoration for any holiday will become an unusually beautiful and original design for your wedding.
Columns and bouquets on the floor
In this way, you can decorate the hall around the perimeter, which will give the whole room more personality and make it a wedding hall, and not an ordinary large room in a restaurant.
Bouquets
The trunk of the “plants” will be a wide ribbon of light fabric. The balls themselves are attached to it from below and above. The upper part should resemble a flower in shape - the petals are placed around the core, close to it. The lower one is simpler - it looks like a small platform. Such bouquets are secured near the walls with wire or glued to the floor around the perimeter of the room, if permitted by the owners of the room.
Columns
Weightless balloon columns are also a good solution. They will help connect the entrance to the design of the hall. Also, they can become accent details in zoning the premises of the banquet hall and separating its most important parts - the stage, the newlyweds’ table, and so on. Weaving columns is carried out in the simplest way from four balls in each row. The height is adjustable depending on the dimensions of the room. However, such columns should almost never go all the way to the ceiling, otherwise they will look too bulky. These elements are located immediately after the entrance to the hall, at the table for the young couple, behind and in front of the stage. It is also possible to place it around the perimeter, but not too often. If columns and bouquets are used simultaneously, then along the walls there will be approximately twice as many of the latter. They are small and will not create a clutter. Everything will look natural.
Creating an air arch
If you take helium-inflated balloons as a basis, you can build stylish aerial arches, which are often used to decorate wedding ceremony halls.
You can make such arches yourself:
- First, cut the wire or fishing line to the required length.
- The lower part of the wire is secured with a weight or a small bucket of gravel.
- The balloons are inflated with helium.
- The inflated balloons are tied to a fishing line at a short distance from each other so that their side parts touch.
The wedding arch will look even more impressive if the balloons are complemented with bright contrasting ribbons.
Once the basic principles of arch construction have been mastered and practical skills have been acquired, you can begin to create complex arches. Wedding halls are often decorated with arches in the shape of the bride and groom, flower arrangements, stars, and hearts.
After reading the step-by-step instructions on how to make your own frame (stand) from wire, fishing line and mesh, and decorations for an arch from balloons, everyone will be able to independently decorate the hall and outdoor space for a special event.

What types of balloons are there for a wedding?
The variety of decorative elements with which you can decorate a special event is amazing.
Classic balls
They have an almost oval shape. They are often made from latex and rubber, combining these materials. As they inflate, their shape noticeably flows from oval to more round, which allows you to adjust their appearance. They are quietly placed around the perimeter of the podium and on tables. They are mounted on walls or arches. They are used to make compact bouquets, which are then attached to the center of festive tables and other places in the banquet hall.
If you inflate the products with ordinary air, in a calm environment they will go downwards. When pumped with helium, a full can of which costs relatively little money, they will rush upward. They are either released to the ceiling, creating the image of moving clouds, or fixed at a certain height. Sometimes fortune scrolls, chocolate surprises, or hearts made, for example, from polymer clay are tied to ribbons as weights.
Sometimes figures of impressive size are assembled from balloons filled with helium in order to secure them near the ceiling. But this is a rather difficult task that only experienced specialists in the field of special events can cope with.
Foil balloons filled with helium
Latex inflatable decorations are not very durable, so if they are accidentally damaged in the middle of an event, they often burst.
Balls with a metallic coating cope much better with rough touches. Moreover, they can have not only an oval or almost round shape; Such products are given the appearance of hearts, luxurious swans, golden crowns and other symbols of celebration. Balloons in the form of newlywed dolls, which can be made in full size, also look incredibly elegant.
In most cases, foil-coated balloons are filled with helium. In this case, they are attached to durable weights, for example, to pieces of furniture, columns or cars of the wedding procession. They will also find their place in the presidium, as in the main part of the banquet hall.
Foil inflatable decorations are especially popular among organizers of themed weddings. They are created, for example, in the form of historical figures, tropical palm trees.
Illuminated wedding balloons
They look romantic and help add a touch of mystery to the atmosphere inside the room. Colored LEDs look great in matte inflatable decorations, while regular daylight glow is more suitable for transparent balls that have a standard shape.
But it is advisable to dim the main lighting so that it does not interrupt the relaxing mood created by such shining decorations. And as a final element of the holiday, inflatable products with helium are sometimes sent on trips to the starry sky, which leaves an unforgettable experience for everyone present.
Complex compositions
In addition to round and oval options, oblong bendable balloons intended for modeling are also often used. They make interesting cartoon images of the heroes of the occasion, which are then installed in the center of the banquet hall or directly on the festive table. Spectacular improvised bouquets, angels, doves of happiness and other figures from inflatable modeling accessories will be just as attractive.
And as the central object of the composition, you can use an immense ball, about 50 centimeters high, around which small satellites are located. The panoramic options with a transparent body and an interesting image on the inside look interesting.
Balloons
This is another decoration option that inflates without outside help, you just need to press the corresponding button in remote mode. Such balls are useful when implementing short performances. Figures suddenly rising behind the newlyweds will add a certain charm to the celebration process.
Wedding inscriptions and figures
They can be assembled from many small balls. In most cases, regular air will do for filling. To celebrate a wedding, it is customary to create a pair of swans and two rings intertwined with each other. But you don’t have to limit yourself to these options. You can complement the composition with figures that are important for a particular newlywed couple and remind, for example, of the place or time they met.
Both mysterious romantic phrases and the usual wishes for everyone are suitable as inscriptions - “Live happily”, “Advice and love”, “Happy wedding day”.
To prevent the inscription from being deformed, it is recommended to use foil balloons.
Inflatable chains
Such decorations, assembled from dozens of inflatable elements, will help decorate the background and divide the space into several areas for feasting and active dancing. Chains can consist of one or several rows, which will depend on the design features. In this design, both balls of similar shades and contrasting options look decent. The podium can be beautifully decorated by creating several chains and placing them one above the other.
Stripes of balloons filled with helium and connecting the tables with the guests like a dome will promote active communication among the participants. And as a finale, they can be released to conquer the sky.
Balloons can also be used during competitions if you hide sweets in them and instruct participants to burst them.
As an unusual background for photographs, a combination of many balls with an almost transparent structure and located on several levels is often used. It is important to remember to keep inflatable decorations away from the table, where they could get dirty or burst.
Air garlands
Colored stripes of decorations are wrapped around columns, railings and other suitable structures. Garlands of balloons filled with helium are sometimes fixed closer to the ceiling and made into floating arches. Designers often combine matte products with smooth options. Colors can be either calm or colorful.
Decorative arches
Aerial structures made from inflatable decorations will be useful when arranging both open areas and indoor banquet halls. But if there is noticeable wind or draft, they must be carefully attached to a reliable base.
A non-trivial option would be to create a kind of corridor of several arches along which the married couple will make their way. In addition to dividing the space into several festive areas and creating a fabulous atmosphere, such an element will become an unforgettable backdrop for filming with a photo and video camera.
An arch made of helium balloons will not go unnoticed by guests. It can be fixed on one site, and then, if necessary, moved to the presidium or another place where it will be needed at a specific point in time.
It is not at all necessary to make an arch of a classical shape. It can be shaped like a heart or a pair of swans. It is also possible to create columns connected at the top with a satin ribbon or other decorative element.
Original entertainment - surprise balls
You can fill many small balloons with candies and place them in a large spherical structure, then burst it to the delight of the public and give pleasant treats or other gifts to those around you. This is usually done at the most solemn moment. The work of piercing the ball is entrusted to the best man, toastmaster or another person.
You can also pop a decorative element using a remote control. Such a spectacle will delight many participants in the festive event.
Bouquets of helium balloons on tables - luxurious decorations
Fresh flowers may fall off and cause allergic reactions in guests. Their artificial analogues cost a lot of money. As an alternative, it is preferable to create bouquets from multi-colored round and special long balls for easy modeling. Tulip buds and other decorative combinations are collected from them. In most cases, a combination of 2-3 colors and shades is sufficient.
Florists working with latex are able to use both ready-made wicker baskets and make them from balls. When decorating tables, you need to remember that decorative elements should not interfere with the communication of guests. Inflatables are either secured as low as possible or tied to a ribbon and released upward if helium was used to fill them.
More, more balls!
An option that will delight both kids, romantic girls, and, probably, even many young mothers.
You can use it for a Jubilee, a wedding and a wedding anniversary, a children's party, Retirement Day, any significant date - for example, a celebration of receiving a diploma or being awarded a Badge of Distinction.
- We inflate the balloons (you can use regular air) in huge quantities. Immediately stock up on a pump - you simply don’t have enough strength to inflate so many balloons.
- There should be so many balls that they fall on the person who opens the door to the room - that is, from floor to ceiling. The surprise is, of course, labor-intensive, but effective!
- Well, the second option: an avalanche. It is suitable for rooms with high ceilings. We fix a wide net under the ceiling and fill this “hammock” with inflated (air!) balloons. At the right moment, one of the guests tears off the net, and the balls fall on the guests like an avalanche.

Decorations on the ceiling
Most often, they simply release a couple of hundred helium balloons with beautiful ribbons to the ceiling. In the photographs I have selected original solutions for decorating the ceiling in the wedding hall. You can make a circular chain of lincolun with helium, and place balls with paper hearts on ribbons in the center of the circle. A very bright decoration, you must agree! On the right is a circular two-color garland.
Here's another great idea for a series of wedding photos “in the clouds.” Pink and white balls cover the entire ceiling and floor... Incomparable!
Wedding floristry: traditions and modernity
Since ancient times, marriage ceremonies have been decorated with flowers, emphasizing the solemnity of the moment. In Ancient Greece, the bride and groom were showered with scarlet rose petals to enlist the protection of the goddess of love Aphrodite, and wreaths of fragrant myrtle and laurel were placed on the heads of the newlyweds, with oak and olive branches woven into them, symbolizing prosperity and well-being.
In the era of the High Middle Ages and the Renaissance, weddings of the nobility were celebrated on a grand scale, stocking up on flowers in advance. There was often a shortage of material, and along with living plants, dried and artificial flowers were widely used. Some techniques of florists who decorated noble weddings are still relevant today.
- Classic European seating involves installing one volumetric composition in a tall vase or on a stand in the center of each table.
- The most massive composition is placed on the podium, which will serve as a center of attraction. Most often, rectangular, asymmetrical or flowing patterns are found, less often - interesting variants of rounded shapes.
- If guests are seated at one long table, several miniature bouquets are placed along the center line of the tabletop.
In the East, other traditions of decorating wedding halls have developed. In China and Japan, they preferred asymmetrical compositions with tree-like and potted flowers, and in India, walls and ceilings were decorated with luxurious extended garlands, which were assembled by hand from flower heads and branches.
Traditional wedding decorations in Latin America are rich in color and bold color combinations. Against the backdrop of a riot of tropical colors, combinations of blue and crimson or bright yellow and light green look surprisingly organic.
One of the main decorations of the Mexican marriage ceremony is a finely woven flower garland in the shape of a lasso, which the newlyweds throw over each other as a sign of the indissolubility of the marriage bond. The bride throws the lasso first, then the groom.
Note that in practice, preparing a wedding hall has long been no longer limited to observing traditions. Thematic decoration, focused on the interests and tastes of the newlyweds, is in trend. Expressing the individual style of a couple in the design of a room and telling a love story in the language of flowers is an incredibly ambitious task worthy of a true master!
Guest tables
Decorating the hall requires a more reverent attitude towards guest tables. The quality of the banquet and the attitude towards visitors will be judged by their appearance. Properly organized planting will help to avoid confusion and unpleasant proximity in a large company. Place numbers on each table and take the time to make guest lists. Children should be seated separately from adults because they have separate menus and common interests.
Option for a decorated wedding hall
Wedding hall decoration
In general, there should be nothing unnecessary on the guest tables of the wedding hall. The round shape of the table promotes open communication. Elongated rectangular tables with benches are inferior in this regard and resemble a rustic version. The design of a wedding hall is based on the correct setting of the dinner area and the beautiful presentation of cutlery. Keep the tablecloths tidy and the utensils used clean.
Every girl has imagined her dream wedding since childhood. Decorating a room with your own hands is a great opportunity to show your creativity and make your dreams come true.
Rose petals and candles
How can you decorate the bride's room so that it looks romantic and beautiful, and at the same time inexpensive? So that the newlywed could cope with this task on her own? The answer is simple: rose petals and candles. You can get fresh flower petals at any time of the year at a florist store. It’s easier if the wedding takes place in the summer, such a product will cost very little. You can also add wildflowers to the roses. Petals are scattered on the floor of the room and in the corridor leading to it. You can place candles on both sides, as if marking the path. For a more intimate and romantic setting, you can turn off the lights. Then the ransom will become a kind of mysterious action. You can choose the most ordinary, small candles. In the room, a heart shape is laid out on the floor using candles, and rose petals are poured inside.
Garlands made of fabric and felt
Such decorations are very durable and will delight you again and again after the wedding celebration.
Flower garland
This garland is very delicate and beautiful. Several of these decorations will turn the room into a real garden.
For work you need: hot glue, scissors, fabric or cardboard for flowers, double-sided fabric or cardboard for leaves (you can use several shades of green), thick twine, felt to match the flowers.
- Cut circles of small diameter from felt.
- Cut out leaves and petals from the fabric (large and small petals in the shape of drops).
- We measure out a piece of twine for the garland. Next, cut the twine into many short pieces.
- Take the cut out leaves. We fold each of them in half and put the tip of those pieces of twine that we tied in knots into the center. Secure the leaf with hot glue. We work through the entire garland, decorating it with foliage.
- Let's start assembling the flower. We take a circle of felt and arrange the petals in a circle, starting with the largest and ending with the smallest at the core of the flower. We fix the petals with hot glue. Flower garland, assembly
- All that remains is to fix the finished flowers in a random order between the foliage, using the same hot-melt adhesive.
Garlands made of hearts, doves, stars and other elements look great. Fantasy and accuracy are your best friends when creating your own wedding garlands.
Decorating the hall with balloons with your own hands
Making your own jewelry with the help of the almighty Internet couldn't be easier. After practicing in master classes on weaving garlands, you will create columns for an arch from helium balloons and decorate the entrance to the hall. Using helium balloons, you can independently assemble a unique chain to decorate the place of the newlyweds, decorate the guests’ table, the ceiling, or create a bright photo zone.
Festive fountain
Light and joyful fountains will lift everyone's spirits. You can assemble them in 10 minutes. To do this, prepare 10 or 12 balloons filled with helium. The peculiarity of each ball is that we tie a weighting agent to the end of the free edge of the rope. As a weighting agent, you can use a bag of shiny fabric filled with sand.
The fountain will have three tiers, and its top will be one ball. We begin to tie the tiers, taking into account that the ropes must be the same length. Let's say we knitted 5 balls for the first tier, 3 for the second and third, and 1 ball decorated the top.
Usually several fountains are created. You can place them along the windows, near the stage, at the entrance.
Magic clouds
Balloons filled with air can be beautifully played with, creating the illusion of clouds. To do this, you can choose two colors of balls - one is white, the second is at your discretion. Very delicate clouds with pink, gold, pastel, purple hues.
It takes 10 balls to create one cloud. We tie them into a single figure and get a charming cloud. We need 5 or 7 such figures. They are attached to the ceiling at different heights. The photos among the magical clouds turn out great!
Dessert balloons for the belly celebration!
If you are planning a large feast, a birthday, or a children's party, dessert balloons will definitely lift everyone's mood and appetite!
This option for decorating a room with balloons, with some modifications and modifications, can be used, for example, on Easter, New Year, March 8th.
How to prepare our “desserts”?
- We inflate large white balloons with helium.
- We print sheets with a “waffle” background, roll them into cones and secure them at the bottom of the balls with double-sided tape. Naturally, it is better to glue the tape from the inside, so as not to spoil the overall appearance of the “ice cream”.
- We pass the ribbon down directly through the hole in the cone (don't forget to leave this useful hole).
- Next, the “ice cream” can be released to the ceiling or tied with ribbons to the cutlery - let the dessert hang above the table.
Whatever your heart desires
I’m not suggesting dressing the bride in a dress made of balloons, I just want to show that the possibilities of modern aero designers are endless. By the way, you can not only decorate the room, but also weave a whole airy panel that will replace the walls in the open gazebo.
Decorating the wedding hall with fresh flowers
Features of decorating a wedding hall with fresh flowers:
- In classic European seating, a large bouquet in a tall vase is placed on each table.
- The largest flower arrangement should be located on the podium. She will attract maximum attention. The standard format is a horizontal arrangement of bouquets in one row. The table is most often decorated with flowing floral patterns.
- If guests are sitting at a long table, you can arrange mini-bouquets along the center line.
Original decoration of the hall with fresh flowers for a wedding is a responsible job. When decorating tables, you need to focus on the vessel or the bouquets themselves. So that the composition does not merge with the dishes, it must be placed on a higher level.
In modern decor, vases are replaced with stylized stands. You can use candlesticks, chests, bottles, stacks of books.
Descendants of Hobbits
Wedding planning is for brides-to-be. Men can only sit quietly and wait for their “fate.” It is rare when a bride relies solely on the opinion of her future spouse in choosing the wedding ambiance and style of the celebration as a whole. Consensus is easy to achieve if both future newlyweds are crazy about the world of Tolkien.
If the bride and groom know and respect Martin Freeman not only from Sherlock Holmes, but also from The Hobbit, why not have a wedding in an elven style.
To do this, decorate the wedding hall with fabric yourself. Give preference to rich shades - emerald, amber. The colors should not be pretentious; elves and hobbits do not like this arrangement.
Rhinestones and sequins should be completely excluded from wedding decor. Leave them to those newlyweds who are planning a wedding in a glamorous style.
Fresh flowers will add elegance to the room. Their color scheme should be combined with the overall color scheme of the celebration.
Cages with live birds are what you need for an elven wedding. Rich forged items will distract the attention of guests while the newlyweds want to be alone with each other for at least a few minutes.
Long vases and an abundance of greenery on the table are a must. Of the most expensive expenses for an elf-themed wedding, greenery is the most expensive. To save on holiday decor, have a wedding in the summer, when greenery is on sale in abundance at affordable prices.
Place a vintage tablecloth on the table. Carved chairs will pleasantly surprise guests.
If green or amber colors don't appeal to young people, consider shades of white, blue and silver. Whatever color is chosen, the decor will look very rich, but not pretentious.
A modest elven wedding will remain in the memory of the couple’s family and friends for a long time.
Vases and cages are easy to find in retro thrift stores. Replace live birds with dummies. You still have to spend money on flowers and greenery.

How to make a ball in a ball
This decor looks impressive and is suitable for many holidays; it can also be used as entertainment. Making a ball in a ball is not so difficult with your own hands. To do this, you need one large transparent ball and several small ones, an expander, and a pump. First, slightly inflate the large ball and carefully place the first small ball there (use an expander), which we fill with air. We tie it with braid and do the same actions with the rest of the balls. At the very end, fill the transparent balloon with helium. If desired, the braid can be decorated with serpentine, satin ribbons, garlands, and sequins.
Useful tips
When decorating a hall with balloons, you need to know some nuances that will help you not make mistakes and not get into trouble.:
- It is best to fill balloons with helium. This way they won’t fall to the floor and will be able to float freely in the air (just don’t forget to fix them in one place).
- Purchasing a can of helium will cost you several times less than ordering such a service from an agency.
- The balloons must be inflated on the wedding day or the evening before the wedding. Otherwise, they may be blown away in the midst of the celebration.
- Tie the neck of the ball not with threads, but with strong knots. Just do it in such a way that you can untie it if necessary.
- Use wire to create animals, arches, hearts and other delights. It will serve as an excellent frame.
- If you tie the balloons with beautiful long ribbons of different colors, you will get the effect of fireworks when you release them.
How to combine flowers and balls
Some people get confused when it comes to the question of how to combine flowers and balloons in one room. In fact, there is nothing difficult about this. All that is needed is to estimate the size of the room where the celebration will take place, decide on the colors and number of bouquets and, based on these calculations, select the varieties, shapes and colors of balloons.
Let's say you're going to have a nautical-themed wedding. Quite often, halls for such celebrations are decorated in two colors: blue and white. This means that you can place flowerpots with snow-white roses everywhere, and fix blue balls above them (or vice versa). Floral inserts in garlands of balls look elegant; such fragments look especially good when climbing plants are used.
The most important thing is to choose the right color scheme and not to overdo it - there should not be too many floral inserts!
Ceiling decoration
To decorate the ceiling, it is possible to create entire figures and compositions from balls of different colors and shapes. Heart, rings, balloon circles and much more.
For additional decoration with ceiling figures, use ribbons, vines, and tinsel, which are tied to the ribbons of the balls.
