Why colour-first styling works

Colour unifies your decor across brands and product types. When balloons, tableware and signage speak the same palette, the room feels larger and more intentional. Guests spot the photo area instantly and your images look polished without heavy editing.

Pair by colour with balloon arches & garlands, letter balloons, number balloons, backdrops, signage and photo props.

Pro styling tip

Use multiple shades within one colour family for depth. For example, matte pink plus chrome pink plus rose gold confetti creates a layered, editorial look. Cross-family pairings also shine. Teal with coral and lilac gives coastal cool. Sage with sand and terracotta delivers relaxed boho. Try pops like orange with yellow for a bright fiesta feel.

Sizes, inflation and pack details

• Clear packaging with colour labels for easy sorting
• Inflation instructions for air or helium use
• Sizing details for 28 cm latex, 45 cm round foils and 66–86 cm letters/numbers

Choose air fill for garlands, walls and long installs. Choose helium for bouquets, entry clusters and table markers. Add Hi-Float to latex if you need longer float times and finish with coordinating ribbons and weights from Balloon Accessories.

Quick palette recipes

• Modern monochrome: black latex, white latex, chrome silver accents, one silver number
• Chic neutrals: sand, stone, ivory and a hint of gold chrome
• Pretty pastels: blush, lilac, butter yellow and mint with pearl finish
• Coastal blue: sky, teal, navy and a dash of clear confetti
• Garden party: sage, eucalyptus, pistachio and white with floral foils

Building depth with finishes

• Matte latex for soft base colour
• Pearl latex for a gentle sheen
• Chrome latex for high-impact highlights
• Foil shapes for crisp edges and reflection
• Confetti balloons for sparkle and movement

Aim for ~⅔ base latex and ~⅓ accent finishes for balanced photos.

Placement by zone

• Entrance: one-colour bouquet each side of the door; a foil word or number above
• Cake table: compact garland in your main shade; two confetti balloons pulled forward on weights
• Photowall: demi arch with a secondary shade; hero foil number and letter set in the foreground
• Dining area: small centrepieces that echo napkins and runner
• Outdoor pergola: long air-filled garland secured to hooks; chrome highlights at the curve

Photo and lighting tips

Keep the shiniest face toward your key light or window. Place features ~20 cm off the wall to soften shadows. Test angles for mirror foils and shift bright lights slightly to the side. Clear confetti balloons love backlight for a halo effect.

Sizing and quantity guide

• Small lounge: one 1.5–2 m garland + a six-balloon bouquet
• Medium hall: a 2–3 m garland, two bouquets and a number pair
• Large venue: one hero arch, one secondary garland and three table clusters

A 28 cm latex count of 60–90 pieces usually covers a 2–3 m garland with extra minis for fill. Add 2–4 foil accents per major feature.

Outdoor and weather guidance

Choose thicker latex for extended outdoor use. Keep in partial shade on hot days. Shorten ribbon tails to reduce tangles. Secure weights properly and add extra ties at anchor points. Always have a backup indoor spot in case the weather changes.

Sustainability notes

Look for biodegradable latex options and recycle packaging where possible. Reuse foils by deflating carefully with a drinking straw and storing flat. Choose durable ribbons and transport bags that will serve multiple events.
