Types of Balloon Arches We Offer

Air-Filled Arch

Air-filled arches are a popular choice for many events. These arches are inflated with ambient air and are supported by a sturdy structure or frame. They are the go-to option for long-term installations, as an air-filled arch can maintain its form for an extended period, sometimes lasting up to a month or even longer.

Helium-Filled Arch

If you’re looking for something a bit more dynamic, a helium-filled arch might be the option for you. These arches have the unique ability to float, making them an excellent choice for events that are shorter in duration. Typically, a helium-filled arch will last between 2 to 3 days, although this can vary depending on environmental factors such as temperature and wind conditions.

Longevity of Balloon Arches

Air-Filled Arches

One of the most significant advantages of choosing an air-filled arch is its longevity. These arches can last for an extended period, sometimes up to a month, making them a highly cost-effective choice for events that span multiple days or even weeks.

Helium-Filled Arches

Helium-filled arches, on the other hand, generally have a shorter lifespan, lasting usually between 2 to 3 days. However, their ability to float adds a dynamic element to your event. It’s essential to consider factors like outdoor placement and weather conditions, as these can impact the arch’s longevity.

Customization Options

At YTE Events and Balloon Decor, we pride ourselves on offering highly customizable balloon arch options. Our arches can be tailored to fit the theme and color scheme of various events, from corporate gatherings and elegant weddings to festive baby showers and lively social events. You can choose up to four different colors to make your balloon arch truly unique.

Types of Balloon Arches

Standard Arch (A)

The standard arch is a classic choice, often seen at corporate events, weddings, and baby showers. This design features uniformly sized balloons, usually stacked in sets of four, and can be customized in up to four different colors.

Specialty Arch (B)

The specialty arch takes the standard arch to the next level by incorporating balloons of varying sizes, creating a unique and eye-catching effect. This type of arch is particularly popular for weddings and private social gatherings.

Frameless Arch (C)

The frameless arch offers a high level of adaptability. This arch can either use a frame for support or be entirely frameless, relying on linking balloons to maintain its shape. It’s a versatile choice, suitable for children’s parties, large installations, and more.

Linked Arch (D)

The linked arch is a helium-based design that employs special linking balloons. This arch is particularly effective for covering large areas, such as dance floors at school events or large outdoor spaces.

String of Pearls Arch (E)

This labor-intensive but highly elegant design comprises numerous helium-filled balloons attached to a monofilament line. It’s a favorite for corporate events and car dealerships, adding a touch of sophistication to any setting.

Illusion Arch (F)

The illusion arch creates the appearance of an archway using a pair of inward-curving columns. This design is especially suitable for stages, auditoriums, and venues with limited ceiling height.

Sculpted Arch (Not Shown)

The sculpted arch combines a standard frame with intricate balloon sculptures, such as animals or trees, adding an extra layer of creativity to your event.

Organic Arch (Not Shown)

The organic arch mimics natural forms with varying balloon sizes and shapes. It often incorporates additional elements like flowers or confetti and is gaining popularity in both social and corporate settings.

Arch Dimensions and Costs at YTE Events and Balloon Decor

Our arch sizes can vary significantly, ranging from 20 feet for single doors to as large as 40 feet for statement pieces. The cost of our balloon arches ranges between $14-$30 per linear foot. For a more detailed pricing guide, we invite you to visit our pricing page.
