Yes we do offer inflation and balloon styling services. All balloons orders are either shipped flat and packaged or inflated depending on your selection. Additional charges apply for inflation and installation.

For balloon orders, you will be asked to select a preferred delivery date and time at checkout. We try our best to deliver your orders on time. We suggest placing your order at least 24 hours prior to your event. We cannot be held responsible if your balloons do not arrive on time, our drivers may experience delays that are beyond our control.

All of our balloons will be inflated with helium, tied with ribbons and attached to a balloon weight, which varies according to the style of balloon you are choosing. They arrive in paper and are securely wrapped.

Whilst we understand that sending a gift is ideally to be a surprise, we do suggest that you let your recipient know that they have a parcel coming to ensure the balloon arrives in the best possible condition.

Balloons are delicate items that can pop easily. Avoid over inflation, sharp objects, harsh climates and very hot or cold objects. Please try to keep your balloons in a stable environment. If they get too hot, they can expand and burst and if they get too cold they can shrink making decals start to peel up and off. Please do not bash and throw your balloons around as this can damage them making them leak helium or air. Do not leave your balloons in a hot car as helium expands in the heat causing your balloons to pop. Be sure to have the air conditioner on while travelling in the car with your balloons. Be sure to treat them with care. If concerned about your balloon popping, we suggest ordering spares. 

We are unable to accept returns of inflated and personalized balloon orders. Due to their nature, they are perishable and individually created for each customer, therefore, cannot be reused or resold.

We understand how important sending gifts to our loved ones can be, therefore our wonderful team of balloon artists will ensure that all balloons leave our office looking their best. However, if a foil balloon is faulty this normally shows upon inflation. If unfortunately your balloon arrives damaged then please send a picture of the damaged balloon immediately to us. If a balloon is found to have an obvious tear or hole then a replacement may be chargeable.

The main reason balloons won’t float is because not enough helium has been added. Another reason your balloon is struggling is you may have added too much weight to your balloon with fun tassels and decorations. Standard balloons won’t float with any decorations added and you should only add light weight options to larger balloons.

Confetti will not stick to the sides of your balloon without static and unfortunately helium does not create static. We suggest that you pop in some air first. To create static rub the inflated balloon with your hand and roll the balloon for the confetti to stick. This process may need to be repeated during your event. We cannot guarantee the confetti will stick when inflating with helium.Also, remember that confetti in balloons will affect the float time when filled with helium. We recommend blowing confetti balloons up with a balloon pump.

Good question! Check our helium chart.Please note that this can vary hugely depending on how and where balloons are kept. Helium does not like extreme weathers as it reduces the life of the balloons dramatically. Keeping it at room temperature will always ensure it looks it’s best for the longest period of time.

Helium can be pricey! You can try one our balloon garlands that do not require helium.
