Bring your own balloons. FAQ

  • Purchased balloons elsewhere? Check out our filling policy.

    ** Most foil balloons, especially ones purchased off amazon, are too small and will not float even when filled with helium.

    Most of these balloons are cheap chinese knock offs of the american companies. The overall balloon is much smaller then the american one which is why they are cheaper. The foil material they use is to heavy or the balloon is too small and there’s not enough helium in it to make it float.

Often times we don't carry every character or style of every theme. We can order in items. Please give ample notice generally at least a week for your items to arrive.

Can I bring them in ahead of time? (pre-order)

Yes, we prefer this as you will save time on the day of your event. You can bring them in anytime we are open.  We can write up your order and will have them ready for pick up at your requested time. If you are unable to bring in ahead of time you can still bring in for same day filling. 

I have confetti balloons can you fill them?

Confetti balloons are discouraged as the confetti does not stick to the side as in the online images. It will just lay on the bottom. These balloons are not treated with hi-float and have a MUCH shorter float time (less then 8 hours) .
