Turning 40 is something we all seem to approach with trepidation.

The pandemic hit and my thoughts about turning 40 blurred into the background. I think it’s helped to change a lot of people’s outlooks on life, and I certainly treasure my time and those close to me more than ever before. I’ll never take ‘hugs’ for granted again.   

Let’s get together

My 40th birthday was the perfect opportunity to connect with all the special people in my life I have missed so much over lockdown.

I love planning celebrations so had lots of ideas of what I would like for my own party.

Chic Pink & Twinkles

The colour theme I chose was inspired by my love for chrome balloons, they are really effective and matched my beautiful cake.

I adore the sumptuous pinks and lavish gold dripping on my cake made by Elaine’s Creative Cakes

The flower wall was great for creating a stunning effect and became our ‘selfie zone!’

These gorgeous decals lit up the party, literally. They have a stunning effect, especially as the light begins to disappear later on… #fab

A gazebo is a perfect way to section off a party area, as well as being able to contend with this mixed weather we are having at the moment. The chair covers and table runners added that little touch of class and reflected the theme perfectly.

The kids

It was great to see the children playing on the bouncy castle together. The Candy Cart was a particular hit! And not just with the children!

The thing that sticks in my mind was my cousin’s fiance Billy trying to use the monkey bars on the children’s play area and breaking them. What an absolute blast!

I better get planning my 41st…

If you would like any further info about any of the above please drop me a message here. I would be more than happy to help you plan the perfect event.

Our suppliers are just the best! We do a range of packages to suit your budget.

We don’t know about you, but we are just relishing the sunshine – thank you for bringing some light into our lives!

Well, lockdown might be easing, but we still need to be careful. We can’t have those big parties we want just yet, but we thought, what’s to stop us having a lovely garden party?

Absolutely nothing! You’re allowed to get together in the rule of six or with one other family in your garden – in our eyes, that’s a party! We’ve selected some of our favourite bright and fun balloons that would liven up any garden. We can even offer a slightly heavier weight as well, so they don’t blow away. It’s all about the food and decoration – so go crazy, we all deserve it!

Our smiling sun face is happy, fun and is guaranteed to get people in the mood.

Sunshine balloon decoration

We have plenty of our huge rainbow sunglasses balloons – perfect for taking selfies and pretending you’re Elton John.

And for any Summer vibe themed parties, don’t miss our ‘Good Vibes’ balloons depicting  everything we hope we’ll enjoy this summer.

It looks like we might not be travelling, but pretend you are with our holiday essentials balloon – you could even throw down some sand and get the sprinkler out!

We also have a range of Summer themed smaller balloons to you want to add depth to your decorations or give them away at the end of the day. The kids will love them.

So what are you waiting for, it’s time to up your decorating game and turn your garden into a summer festival site, beach front or urban party place. All our balloons are delivered contact free and we can pretty much arrive when you need us.

Don’t forget if you want to really have fun and spoil the kids, who may not have had a Birthday party for some time, we have donut walls, candy carts and light-up numbers and letters.

Send us some pictures too – we’d love to see them.

Here at Fabulous Rooms and Balloons we’ve come up with a few ideas to make Mother’s Day exciting this year.  We might not all be able to physically be with our Mums’, but we can show them we love them just the same.

1. Send some of our beautiful Mother’s Day balloons – of course we’re going to say that, but they really are fantastic and such a welcome surprise. We’ll deliver on the day or before so you can surprise them – get in touch now.
2. Bake some cakes or cookies – mums love cakes! Why not try your hand at baking yourself and send a box in the mail or hand deliver. You can buy cupcake boxes from The Cake Decorating Company and securely post them so they arrive in one piece. Find your Mum’s favourite recipe online – ours will always be red velvet with vanilla icing.
3. If you hate baking get someone else to do it for you! Elaine’s Creative Cakes is just the best baker in the region – she’ll make the most extravagant decadent cake, or a simple elegant sponge. Whatever your Mum would enjoy the most!
4. Flowers – now, we’d say send balloons and flowers, but of course it’s your choice. M&S, Bunches and Bloom in Wild are all great choices.
5. Homemade cards – if you have children yourself, why not get the kids involved and make a card for Grandma/Mum. Everybody loves the personalised touch. But if you’re running out of time, remember the online card shops do last minute deliveries!
6. Photobooks – you cannot get any better than receiving a memory filled book to celebrate the good times. Photobox is fast and easy to use – create cards, mugs, albums – whatever you think your mum would love.

To all the MUMS out there, have a fabulous day!  You deserve it.

So, Valentine’s Day is around the corner and we’ve not got a restaurant to go to – what are we going to do for that person we love?! Here a Fabulous Rooms and Balloons we’ve been working up a brilliant alternative to an over-priced set menu for two in a cramped restaurant. Who needs any of that nonsense anyway?!

 

We’ve teamed up with The Deli Board Company to offer amazing Valentine’s Day packages for your loved one. You can choose from any of our Valentine’s balloons, or come up with your own creation, and one of the many delicious, seasonal graze boards or boxes.

Our beautiful gift balloons come with artificial roses, a teddy and a choice of chocolates.

We will deliver them to your home so you’re fully prepped to focus on your special person and having a memorable evening.

We’d recommend pairing with a beautiful wine from Manchester experts Reserve Wines or an alcohol free sparking Rose from Tesco. And don’t forget to select one of the best romantic movies currently showing on Netflix.

If it’s going to be an extra special night and proposals are in the air, we’ve got the balloon for you. We’ll deliver it at the right time for you to pop the question to your partner. But make sure to get in touch and tell us if he/she/they said YES!

What are you waiting for? 2021 is set to be one to remember.

Order needs to be in by February 2^nd.
