Playful ribbons of balloons, giant orbs and floral blossoms trailing from the sidewalk, through the entire space leading you to an entire sky of balloons and fringe above the dance floor. YES! This wasn’t just a party… it was THE after party! 💕

Some celebrations are so lovingly created—every balloon, every tassle, every tiny detail—that they feel almost too perfect to share. Like keeping a little bit of magic in a bottle. But the beauty, whimsy, and joy here deserve a glimpse into how special love looks when it fills a room. It was an honor to make this whimsical vision a reality. 💕🎈

🍏 + 🔥 + 🎈 = Party magic. Fireball Whiskey’s Blazin Apple launch was a vibe, and balloons made it a PARTY! 

PS: New-to-you venue? No problem. With decades of KC experience, we’ve likely decorated it before (and have pics to prove it!)—and if not, we’ll dream up the perfect design for you.

✨🎉 Happy 3rd birthday to our amazing next-door neighbors, @swaycoffeeroasters !

Funny story—years ago, while Johnna was (of course) talking about balloons 😂 she missed an exit. We cut across a street we rarely used and spotted an empty building that seemed like it might be the perfect balloon studio. Turns out it wasn’t quite right… but the space next door was exactly where we were meant to land. ✨

That little detour gave us the perfect home for our balloon studio, incredible neighbors like @e.spencerschubert (who creates amazing sculptures + @lectroletters marquees you see in many of our installations), and eventually the sweetest twist—Sway Coffee moved in right beside us. For caffeine-reliant artists like us, it was a dream come true. 💫

This neighborhood has given us a home, creative friends, and the coolest community we could have wished for. Today we celebrate not just balloons and coffee, but serendipity, creativity, and the joy of finding where you truly belong. ☕️🎈🎨

When our friends @dragonwagon.kc said “Labubu Fashion Show,” we understood the assignment. Every strut, turn, and pose was framed by a balloon backdrop adorned with our new favorite, wee monster balloons!

Shhh… your surprise is safe with us (well, until the early-bird neighbors spot us 😉). We’re up at sunrise, quietly creating balloon magic so you can sleep in and wake up to this! What a way to start your birthday! 🥂

🍹🌊 On National Jimmy Buffett Day, we raised a toast to the troubadour of summer himself! 🎶☀️

This island-y photo spot was created in honor of Jimmy and his incredible legacy—not just the soundtracks of our sunny days, but also his heartfelt philanthropy through the @singingforchangefoundation. 💙

He asked to keep the party going—so we did, with a giant margarita, a lost shaker of salt and a whole lot of Bubbles Up. 🏖️✨ Here’s to living life like a song and celebrating the tropical lifestyle he shared with us all.

🦈 For the 50th anniversary of JAWS, we created not one… not two… but THREE larger-than-life balloon sharks! Each one is designed so you can step right into the shark’s mouth for a picture-perfect (and slightly terrifying) photo op @bbtheatres in Liberty, Grain Valley and downtown on Main. 😉🎈 #JAWS50 #BalloonSculpture #MovieMagic #WeAreGonnaNeedABiggerBoat

✨ “When it was the 90s…” (tell me you didn’t just hear @kevinjamesthornton’s voice in your head 🤣). From boomboxes to game controllers, giant cell phones to flannel, Clueless with a side of GenX angst, this throwback balloon spot has us living our best retro life.

What screams the 90s to you? 👾🎶📟
