Switch to Desktop/Mobile View

Balloons pretty much symbolize celebrations. They are used in everything to celebrate. They are used for birthdays, parties, graduations, and weddings. They can look goofy, look classy, be huge or small. You can twist them to look like certain shapes or leave them as they are. There are many things that you can do with them. One thing is use them at weddings. Let’s look at some balloon crafts for weddings.

First, you really need to be careful when using balloons at weddings. Weddings are supposed to be classy and not look like the circus decorated the place. You should only use certain colors that aren’t too bold and only use them in certain ways. You can still have a lot of fun with them though. Balloons are one of the cheapest ways to decorate a place for a wedding, so you want to use them if you can.

One of the most popular ways to decorate a room for a wedding is to create a balloon wedding arch. All you need is an arch, tons of balloons, and a ways to stick the balloons to the arch, you can just use balloon ribbon if you want. You can have the balloons in a simple arch or you can have a couple layers of balloons and make a packed arch. Either way looks nice. You will probably want to invest in a helium tank so that the balloons float up and aren’t drooping down. You can either rent one or buy the balloons already filled up.

You can also create centerpieces around balloons. You probably don’t want the balloons hanging to far up, but more centered and down to the table. Create the centerpiece before you buy a ton of balloons. Use nice colors. Even white would look nice even if it wasn’t officially a wedding color. It ties in with everything and if you have ribbon and other things around the balloon, the balloon will just be a part of the centerpiece.

A fun idea is to have balloons on the dance floor. If the place you are having your wedding can, create a way for the balloons to drop, almost like when balloons and confetti drop when a contestant has one a million dollars, but in a slow and nice sort of way. Your future husband would probably love to be the one setting it up and figuring it out. Most guys love that kind of stuff. Make sure he’s careful but if you can work it out, it would be a lovely effect to have the balloons drop when you are having your first dance as man and wife or another event during the wedding. You won’t want the balloons filled with helium so that they will drop and you again want to use classy colored balloons.

Use all sorts of colors. Use your wedding colors, and if your wedding colors are bright and bold, tone them down a little bit. You don’t want your wedding looking like a kid’s party but a wedding. Balloons are a great way to create a nice and inexpensive wedding atmosphere.
