balloons...at a wedding?!

My least favourite type of wedding decor has to be balloons. When I think of balloons at a wedding I think of balloon arches at the entrance, clusters of 3 balloons tied to bits of ribbon on a table...*shivers*. Aside from the fact that I have a bit of a balloon phobia (that squeaking noise...), I just think using balloons lacks thought and creativity.

I think people often choose balloons because they are cheap. Well, I can tell you now if you're willing to put in the hard work you can create your own decorations for the same price, if not cheaper! (DIY decorations post to follow at some point...)

Up until recently, I would have ran you out of town if you'd suggested that I include balloons in my wedding. However, I have to admit I'm kind of loving those large, round balloons that people are using as props in their wedding photographs... 

***Disclaimer: after my anti-balloon rant, I cannot be held responsible if balloons end up making it into my wedding photographs
