We booked Adventure Balloons for our son's 2nd birthday party at Magic Island. Ivan arrived right on time, stayed for an hour and was an immediate hit. He cranked out a new insane balloon sculpture every couple of minutes. Everything from the Ghostbusters hose/backpack combo to ponies to Hello Kitty to puppies to Elmo. The quality was unlike what I've ever seen before. I'm not sure if the parents or the kids enjoyed it more. The online and email booking process was quick and easy and the prices were reasonable. Will definitely hire them again and again for future parties. Highly, highly recommended.

Went to a 1st bday party the end of August at Pearl Country Club. Whoodathunk that the highlight of the party would be the Balloon Guy?!
Sitting at my table, nibbling at my edamame, and I see some kid (don't even remember if it was a girl or boy--that's how distracted I was) zoom by me with what looked like a backpack strapped to him around his shoulders--but it was made from balloons! To go along with his pack, was a laser gun AND a sword! What the--?! I must be seeing things...
Then I see another faceless child with a fishing pole, with a fish dangling from it (complete with fish lips, mind you), and BUBBLES!!! All from balloons!
Then I see Spiderman...Hello Kitty...some crazy a$$ hats...and at this point my 11-year old step-daughter is practically pulling me out of my chair to find the creator of this madness.
Naturally, he wasn't hard to find...I mean, no one was standing in line for the candy bar. We stood for a few minutes and our girl tried to come up with the one thing her heart would most desire...which is really tough to do when you're watching Balloon Creator Extraordinaire continuously top his creations, child after child. I secretly really wanted him to make me chastity belt or something crazy...just to see if he could do it. She settled on a Smurf. And wouldn't you know it, we managed to stump him. Smartphone to the rescue! He googles it, hit Images, and voila! He quickly starts blowing, tying, tearing, and flipping blue and white balloons together to make her a Smurf. Did you catch that--he's never done one before and just magically figured it out. Now that's talent, y'all.
I picked up his card because I'm SURE I can find an excuse to use this guy...Jimmie Whitworth, you are a ballooning fool, and I can't wait to see you in action again. Google image: Chastity belt. =) -

Chris came to my son's first bday luau and was the STAR of the whole day. He is a balloon genius and the kids went crazy over his magical balloon creations.
My friend tipped me off to these guys. She is a balloon artist herself and says the Adventure Balloon brothers are the BEST. Super talented brothers...must run in the family. They're also really NICE to the kids. That's not always the case.
Reliable, pleasant, and fun. He made a huge motorcycle, a monkey in a palm tree twice (party theme was monkeys) and lots more. He made a birthday crown for my son right before he left, which was a nice added touch! -

WOW!!!! I was AMAZED!!!
Today, I went to a 1st birthday party. There was a balloon artist there! Adventure Balloons! The young guy was incredibly talented and had a nice charm about him! He made the most creative and huge creations that I've EVER seen! And believe me, I've been to a TON of kid events and birthday parties.
When kid would ask for things, he'd go above and beyond to make it extra special! It wasn't just your typical little sword or flower or animal. He made a Huge fish (with teeth even!) on a fishing pole. He made a 5 year old girl a super cute horse that could wrap around her waist like a beach toy raft! He made a little animal in a basket looking thing! My baby asked for "Rocket" from Little Einsteins, and I showed him a photo of Rocket, and he made it for him! Another little guy asked for a gun, and he created a bazooka pack! And a crazy cool octopus with long wiggly tentacles! (see my photo!)
He used bigger than normal balloons. Fancy printed balloons. And he was real friendly and always made the kids laugh... Not the typical boring, quiet guy standing there twisting your kid's balloons!
I wish I knew of them when we planned our boy's parties! If you want something out of the typical, and someone who has personality, and takes the time to create something EXTRA SPECIAL for all your party guests, I'd definitely recommend Adventure Balloons!!! -

Customer Service: I found it very easy to book a date, after communicating strictly via email (like all working moms, I didn't have time to call with all my questions.) All my questions were answered timely.
The kids had quite imginative requests but Angel was awesome at my daughter's birthday party! Definitely not your average balloon twister... everyone wanted a balloon, even the oldies! =) -

When I hired Adventure Balloons for my daughter's first birthday party, I figured the guy would make your typical dog, sword, monkey in a tree, etc. Boy, was I wrong. Chris was a balloon twisting phenomenon. If they gave out awards for balloon twisting, the kid would get a freaking Pulitzer. He made a Pikachu, huge fishes on fishing poles, Muno & Foofa from Yo Gabba Gabba, Ni Hao Kai Lan; the list goes on & on. My cousin even asked him to make BJ Penn as a joke...which Chris quickly pulled off, without a second's hesitation. EVERYONE was asking where I got my balloon guy from. Chris was definitely the highlight of my daughter's party.
If you're in need of entertainment for an event, get in touch with Adventure Balloons. You won't be disappointed. It was worth every penny.
