5- DIY giant silver balloons with tulle and glitter

Word of warning, do not spend on expensive helium for tulle balloons as they become too heavy and do not float. They need to be suspended from the ceiling with clear plastic thread but don’t worry, it’s not that hard.

  1. Blow up the balloon and cover it with the tulle so the four tips line up at the bottom.
  2. Tie it with an elastic band and cover it with a nice ribbon.
  3. Now, trim tulle tail.
  4. Finally, use the clear plastic thread to hang the balloon but threading it trough the top of the balloon tulle – be careful not to pop the balloon!

6- Lit wedding aisle decor with balloons and tassel tails

Create the tassels of your liking with party fringe garlands, the lighter, the better and tie them to the neck of the balloon. For a more classic look, go with all white tassels.

8- Magical balloon releases for an emotional send-off

Balloon releases are incredibly beautiful but make sure you care about the environment with biodegradable materials and tails. Another great idea is to organize a ballon send off without the release, it will look just as lovely on the wedding photos.

Word of caution: Some states that have laws that prohibit balloon releases. So far, these are California, Connecticut, Florida, Tennessee and Virginia.

Nothing more magical than a balloon release! Tips on the blog.

Why are Photo Booths so much Fun?

The truth is that with very little money you can have a great time! And photo booths can be really inexpensive. We’ll present you some amazing photo booth ideas shortly but meanwhile, do you know why photo booths are so much fun?

The first photo booth was invented in 1888. As there was no photographer, the people were more relaxed and the photographs were original and fun. We invite you to add that same joyful quality to your party with these incredible photo booth ideas!

Wedding Photo Booth Backdrop Ideas to DIY

There are two main styles of photo booths: open and enclosed or self-contained. You know, the ones that you walk into. Today, we will concentrate on the open ones. For the self-contained ones you are better off renting them from a professional.

Making an open photo booth is very simple, you will need a backdrop and a multitude of props.

  • Let’s start with the backdrop. We could hang a ready-made wall decoration or we could craft a one-of-a-kind backdrop with colored streamers, paper pompons, pinwheels, honeycomb shapes, paper flowers or balloons. For a stunning result, match the photo booth style to your wedding theme or colors.
  • For the props fill a suitcase or a coat rack with giant party glasses, hats, feather boas, wigs, parasols, confetti, funny Snap signs or anything else that comes to mind! Scour your home and look for more props. You’ll be surprised at the things you’ll find.

Best Times to Start Your Photo Booth Event

This is a non-issue if you are making the photo booth part of your wedding decor. On the other hand, if you are planning on renting the photo booth, you will have to decide when and for how long you want it to be on.

You may consider cocktail hour as a fun ice-breaker and it will be much easier for the photo booth rental company to setup and pick everything up once the guests move onto another room.

Another great time to start your photo booth is when dancing begins. Not everybody will step onto the dance floor and that’s a great opp to get those sluggish guests to join in the fun.
