Express Your Well-Wishes With Balloon-Flower Combinations

When sending well-wishes to a loved one, you typically think of flowers, cards, or chocolates. In recent years, however, balloons have also risen in popularity as a gift choice and a way to say “congratulations”.

Hence, there are few celebrations nowadays that are without flowers or balloons. Read on to discover why these two items are so sought after when expressing your well-wishes.

Flowers as a way to express your congratulations

Flowers are versatile as they can be used for any celebratory occasion. For graduations, anniversaries and births, it is best to choose a flower bouquet; on the other hand, bigger events like opening ceremonies and company launches pair better with flower stands that catch the attention of passers-by and guests.

But what kind of flowers should you be choosing? With so many to pick from, it can be challenging to know which flower is best suited for the occasion.

One way to make your choice is to consider the aesthetic: how do the flowers’ colours, shapes, and sizes fit together? Does the overall look fit the atmosphere of the event?

You may also want to consider the combination of fragrances as clashing scents may be unpleasant for the recipient.

Another important consideration is the meaning and symbolism of the flowers. For example, daffodils are typically sent to celebrate the start of a new career or the birth of a baby, as they symbolise resilience and a new life. On the other hand, orchids, which symbolise maturity, are usually given to those graduating.

However, you should note that flower meanings vary across contexts. For example, white flowers represent purity in Europe but sadness in East Asia. Hence, you should carefully distinguish the meanings of different flowers before creating a bouquet.

Balloons as a way to express your congratulations

Balloons are usually seen as just decorations for parties, but they can also be used as gifts.

The act of giving and receiving balloons evokes in recipients feelings of joy. Balloons are often closely associated with celebrations; therefore, you are instantly reminded of the happy moments in your life, like birthdays or graduations, when you see one.

Another advantage of balloons is that they can be easily customised to suit the intended recipient because they come in a wide range of colours, shapes, and sizes.

Furthermore, they are low maintenance. If your intended recipient is likely to be busy, balloons are ideal: they do not have to be trimmed or watered as flower bouquets do.

Balloon-flower combinations

If you can’t decide between flowers and balloons, consider getting the best of both worlds with flower balloons.

Flower balloons started as a trend in Korea but have since expanded overseas. They are made when a transparent balloon is inflated over a flower bouquet, creating a dreamlike and romantic look.

You can choose from various flowers to include in your bouquet and print a personalised message on the balloon so that your well-wishes are clearly expressed. Some balloons also have LED light functions, allowing you to watch the flower light up when you turn it on.

Conclusion

Whether you are throwing a party or sending your loved one a message of congratulations, no celebration is complete with flowers or balloons. Both have unique qualities and purposes that make them popular gift choices and you can take your gift to the next level by combining both items in a flower balloon.
