Hi Lorrie!


I'm getting my "sign guy" to cut letters out of Vinyl in the Brides colours
and I stick them on 3 footers! They are a big seller for me. I use them over
an archway (to create the centre of a floating arch) upside down in the
middle of a dance floor filled with little balloons for an explosion, and to
top off columns. They love the idea of the customized look! The idea came
from Weddings With Style magazine, May/June of 99 issue. The guest designer
for this creation was Sherry Potempa of Burstin' to show Ya, Wonder Lake,
Illinois. Her 3 footer is lit up. I haven't had a chance to research how
that is done but would like to know if anyone has done this "lighted look"
before.

Hi,  My name is Lorrie.  I own a balloon shop in Rhode Island and I'm
looking
for latex balloons with peoples names on them.  I have seen them in another
balloon store but dont know where they got them from.  I have contacted both
US Balloons and Flowers, Inc. and both say I have to order as a custom
print.
 Does anyone know of a balloon company that sells these in general  example:
a bag of "John" or "Mary" etc. without having to do a special order???
Thanks for the help.
