Launching balloons is a very beautiful way to celebrate an event, make it memorable and just have great fun! If you want to make your party more humble, use a small amount of balloons. NEVER use balloons filled with helium. Only fill balloons with air (doctors in the medical community are complaining about increased prices and decreased availability; Earth's helium reserves are limited). Be sure to collect and dispose of any released balloons to avoid contamination of the environment and wildlife ..

Steps

1. 1 The day before the event, buy the required number of balloons from the event store. For small launches, 25-100 balloons will suffice, depending on the number of people. You might want to buy a specific number and color of balls (read below).
2. 2 Inflate the balloons on the day of the celebration so they don't deflate.
3. 3 About half an hour before the balloons are launched, release 1-2 test balloons and check the wind direction. This will help you decide where to launch the balloons from to avoid getting caught in power lines or trees.
4. 4 Give each person a balloon or, for greater effect, several (3-5) balloons.
5. 5 At the location you choose to launch, start the countdown for a more exhilarating effect.
6. 6 Let it go! All balls will fly in their trajectory, driven by the wind, which looks fantastic.
7. 7 Wait for the balls to drop to the ground, collect and dispose of all debris.

Tips

• For rubber balls, it takes 6 months to several years for complete decomposition, during which the environment is polluted. Make sure you collect all released balloons and dispose of them properly.
• If the event is memorable, prepare a symbolic number or color of balloons.For example, if you are commemorating a person who died at 80 and whose favorite color was red, prepare 80 red balloons.
• Fill the balloons with the required amount of air so that they can fly without exploding. If you are unsure, ask the party planner.
• The balls need to be tied manually. No clamps, ropes or bands, as they do not decompose and harm the environment.
• The color of the balloons depends on the holiday. For example:
  • pink and red balloons are suitable for Valentine's Day
  • for Halloween - orange and black
  • for St. Patrick's Day - green.
• Inform guests about the launch of balloons in the invitation. This way, if someone is allergic to latex, they may not come to the party.
• Install cameras from different sides. Take photos starting from the countdown from different angles.

Warnings

• The balloons filled with helium fly far away and fall to the ground at a great distance from the launch site. While nonprofit groups of people are involved in cleaning up the environment, fighting garbage dumping, treating or burying dead wildlife. Never fill balloons with helium and always collect and discard balloons.
• Launching balloons is quite a disastrous way to celebrate an event. There are many alternatives to launching balloons that do not kill wildlife and the environment. If you want to make your celebration more humble, consider planting trees, flowers, or releasing butterflies or pigeons, or lighting candles. You can also use balloons filled with air to decorate or hide gifts in them. Please never launch balloons, as this increases the amount of debris on earth and decreases the planet's helium reserves.
• Don't buy mylar balls. Mylar does not decompose. Latex decomposes in about the same time as oak leaves - from 6 months to several years. They are both dangerous to wildlife and very harmful to the environment.
• Check the laws in your city that may prohibit or restrict launches. You may also need permission from your city or regional council.
• Make sure no one is allergic to latex.
