Decorate a Ceiling for a Wedding
A beautiful way to decorate a ceiling for a wedding is to create a balloon canopy. Depending on the size of the room and the height of the ceiling, this may be challenging, and you may want to talk to a professional. However, it is possible to do on your own. Creating a balloon canopy is time consuming and may require help from multiple people. The canopy described below is one you can make without using helium, which greatly reduces the price.
Instructions
Decorate a Ceiling for a Wedding
1. Hang the one large round balloon in the center of the room. The easiest way to hang it will be to put an eye hook in the ceiling and use fishing line to tie the knot of the balloon to the eye hook.
2. Measure out eight pieces of fishing line. You'll need four pieces to run from the center balloon to each of the four corners of the room and four pieces long enough to run from the center balloon to each of the four sides of the room.
3. Inflate your 18 round balloons. Tie the balloons to the fishing line so that the widest parts of the balloons are touching each other. Continue doing this until the balloons cover the entire length of the fishing line. If you are using two or more colors, make sure you alternate the colors when you attach them to the line.
4. Attach one end of the fishing line to the ceiling in the center of the room, directly above the center balloon, and then attach the other end of the fishing line to the ceiling at the corner of the room.
5. Repeat step four until all eight of your fishing lines are full of balloons and attached to the ceiling. Much the way you did with the center balloon, use eye hooks to attach the fishing line to the ceiling if you can.
Tips Warnings
For added affect, you can have the large center balloon filled with smaller balloons before hanging it from the ceiling.
Ask the hall manager before attaching eye hooks to the ceiling. Most halls have rules regarding what you can and cannot do with hall decorations. You may need to find an alternate option. Go look at the hall ahead of time so you know how tall of a ladder you'll need to get up to the ceiling. When climbing a ladder, always make sure you have a spotter holding the bottom of the ladder to make sure it doesn't slip out from under you.
