History

Established in 2001.

Balloons have always been a part of my life. As a child, I loved receiving and playing with them. As a young adult, I enjoyed receiving them but not as much as I did giving them to others for special occasions. Balloons have a way of promoting smiles and making people happy. Later in life, I had the pleasure to decorate for our family’s New Years Eve party and guess what? I was in charge of the balloons! So, because this was a large scale event, I had to think outside the box and ended up buying my own helium tank. I was in heaven. That alone inspired me to research balloon décor which unleashed a creative side of me that I never knew existed. Fast forward a couple years… when I met my husband, Rob, he thought I had a unique talent that should be shared with the world. Since he was a computer guy, he suggested that we build a website, take pictures of my balloon creations and promote our business. It was then that Up, Up and Away! was born.
