Gambling Laws
UPDATE November 2020 – This is resolved – download the attached 22 page Legal Classification Advice – read the Conclusion on the last 2 pages. I’ve had a few charities ask me if they need a Gambling Licence to operate the balloon race. After looking into this I’ve come up with a solution but wanted to make Charities […]
PTA
Virtual Balloon Race for your PTA. Meet Sarah. Sarah volunteers for the PTA and wants to raise some cash to buy a new friendship bench. Sarah is lost for ideas, everybody is stuck at home and can’t come out. This makes Sarah sad. Then somebody tells Sarah about the Virtual Balloon Race, apparently it costs […]
Coombe Abbey
This wall was part of a 1st Birthday celebration at Coombe Abbey. It was used as a partition to separate the bar from the main marquee. It had to look fantastic from both sides. I used big base plates close together to make sure the structure was strong and could withstand the odd bashing from […]
Hurlingham Park
Balloon Wall for a wedding at The Hurlingham Club including a foam board sign. It’s very tempting to keep adding and adding to these structures…. see below:
36″ Fetti
Here’s an entrance for The Savoy ballroom plus we inflated 50 x 36″ fetti filled diamond clear balloons this 21st Birthday celebration at The Savoy. We used Hi Float to help the Gold flutter stick all over the inside of the balloon. We mixed in some Gold Orbz to create massive bouquets that almost reached […]
SPAR Balloon Wall
Spar balloon wall built on the 1st Floor, Barclaycard Arena. As these walls get more popular it’s becoming important to incorporate a logo. In the 1990’s precision walls were good for a while until the star cloth became a better option. Now that everybody wants to share a selfie (or a snap of their kids) […]
Girl Power
Another selfie wall for Nu-Skin, this one was at the London Park Plaza and includes this frame for a Pop Up Display promoting Girl Power.
Ladbrokes
Another Selfie balloon wall, this time for the Ladbrokes Coral Christmas party at the Wembley Hilton. To get an even feel to the wall we built the back layer using quicklinks:
Exploders
Printed exploders supplied to Jumeirah Carlton Tower, London. Last year we supplied balloon drops for the same client (in The Dorchester) but the ceiling was too low here. I wanted to used pyros to explode these but the hotel wouldn’t allow it – so we made 10 wands to burst them by hand. Catch a […]
BCH
Always a pleasure to help out the Burns Unit, Birmingham Childrens Hospital. These bunches were in The Copthorne, Paradise Circus. I wanted to thank you so much for providing the balloons on Saturday, as always when I arrived the room looked beautiful. I loved the cluster of balloons that you did with the gingerbread man, […]
