Aloha!
It seems as if everyone is having a Luau lately. I think it is great! Luaus are a great way to celebrate a wedding, a birthday, graduation, or just to have an excuse for a party. The main ingredients for a luau are usually kalua pork, rice, fruit (especially pineapple) and in some cases poi.
There is also one very important part to every luau...the decor!
There are some important things that need to be remembered for your luau. You can use balloons, but there are also many party supplies available from Balloons to the Max. Here are some ideas and examples.
1. Grass skirts for hosts and/or guests.
2. Grass table skirts.
3. Leis (Check out our many varieties at www.balloonstothemax.com/store)
4. Flower curtains to cover the entrances and exits.
5. Finishing touches such as paper lanterns which Balloons to the Max has for as little as $1.00.
6. Centerpieces. You can put a glass bowl in the center filled with shells or shells and a lei coming out. If you are outside you can put water in the bowls and float flowers or tea candles.
7. BALLOONS. Not only can you use foil balloons that fit the theme, but there are great latex balloons for luaus. If you are really looking for something different give us a call and we can help you with palm tree centerpieces made from balloons or giant balloon palm trees that are about 10 feet tall. It will definately make your luau stand out.

The Wedding Season
The wedding season is fast approaching and in many cases it is here. Balloons can be a great way to make a wedding beautiful, special and unique. Most of the weddings you walk into you will hear few to no comments on the decor. The weddings you go to that use balloons will always get a comment. One of our most popular wedding decorations is a balloon canopy. It is an elegant way to dress up a hall or (weather permitting) cover your guests for the outdoor ceremony or dining. A decor idea many forget are centerpieces. You can make balloon sculptures or topiaries or simply decorate with a small cluster of helium balloons. Another fun option is to do a floral centerpiece that also includes balloons. We once did a small floral arrangement and mixed in small balloons, making them look like small glass balls in the arrangement. The client loved it and it was very different so it was commented on by almost everyone.
Wedding colors is also very important to a bride. People would be amazed at the unlimited number of colors available for weddings. We ususally take a sample of colors with us for our consultations and in every instance we have been able to match the bride's colors. You can often layer balloon colors to hit a specific color, but most of the time our standard colors are what they are looking for. Another popular option for the colors is to use pearlized balloons. These are the regular colors with a soft coating on the balloons making them have a pearl like exterior. These colors are beautiful and make any room elegant. Add special lighting and it will reflect off the balloons, making the room have a romantic glow. Another trend in weddings right now is to use neon colors. With the bright colors of spring and many colors of Gerber Daisies (popular flower right now for weddings), many are opting for neon/bright orange, pink, blue, green, etc. We have these balloons as well, making your indoor or outdoor wedding unforgettable and beautiful!
